Off The Rails: British Rail Motorail

Off the Rails: A series diving into the history of lost & forgotten parts of British Rail.

In our first video, we look at the history of the Motorail service run by British Rail from 1955, through to privatisation and beyond. We cover the creation of the service, its early life, its inevitable demise, and into the Knowle and Dorridge crash of 1963.

NOTE: Whilst I make every attempt to locate the source of the videos and photographs used in my videos, many are taken from other websites or Youtube videos were sources are not cited. If you are aware of the source of the 'unknown' photos or videos then please do not hesitate to comment below.

Thanks for watching!
