The Dawlish Débâcle

A compilation of television newsreel and documentary clips, recording the disastrous breach of the railway's sea wall at Dawlish, the subsequent eight-week blockade and the triumphal reopening of the line in 2014. The engineering work is rightly given prominence but it is not overlooked that there was feverish activity behind the scenes as controllers dealt with the unprecedented disruption. Hardy passengers have their say, too. Also covered are the inspections of the line across the flooded Somerset Levels; the relining of Whiteball Tunnel; the removal by road of H.S.T. power cars and trailers to and from Laira Depot; and the loading of logs at Exeter Riverside Yard. The recordings were made originally on magnetic tape. They were transferred to D.V.D., uploaded to the computer and converted to MP4. The eighty minutes were edited and divided into five-dozen segments using Movie Maker. One of the great strengths of the British railway system was its route diversity. All the effort and expense in the ten years since the débâcle has been devoted to reducing the vulnerability of the main line, while not one chain of an alternative route has been built. https://www.teignrail.co.uk/political...
