can help. We can operate trains at any time of day or night. Here are some of the trains we can put together. Beattie Well Tank No 30587 with 2 "blood & custard" coaches. Other facilities available include:-

Shooting the Film "Keeping Mum" in early 2005. The scene was of a
1960s branch line station which is what Bodmin General is! The film
is due to be released late in 2005. The rolling stock used was Prairie tank locomotive No 5552 in BR green with logo and a mixture of "Blood & custard" & maroon coaches to the Director's requirements. |

"Half-light" was filmed in late 2004 when Bodmin General station was used
to recreate a contemporary, run down, Scottish, branch line station with a
diesel multiple unit. Filming inside buildings was done during the day time as day for night with blackout screens around the station canopy and then the exterior scenes done late in the evening. The logo on the side of the train (below) proclaims "Highland Rail" and the headboard on the front (right) states "Oban"! |
