NORTH WOOLWICH to PALACE GATES steam train ride 1960

Filmed in 1960, the journey by steam train through north east London from North Woolwich to Palace Gates near Wood Green (station named for proximity to Alexandra Palace Ally Pally venue). This through journey has not been possible since 1964.
At the start we see what was involved in selling a rail ticket in the days before ticket machines.
