The Cuckoo Railway Line: Then and Now

A video I've put together using some fantastic footage from the 1960s where I've tried to show the current day scenes of the original film of the Cuckoo Line, a railway that ran from Polegate to Eridge and was axed as a result of the Beeching closures of the 1960s. In some cases this is impossible due to the removal of the trackbed, the growth of trees or the current location being on private land but hopefully my results give a good indication. The video starts from Polegate and works its way north to Redgate Mill Junction where the line to Eridge is joined. Many thanks to SouthernRailwayFilms for the use of the original footage.
