EDWARDIAN FARM
Filming on the South Devon Railway

Staverton Station's 'props' of barrels, milk churns, suitcases and old bicycles
were ideal for filming the Edwardian period. |

The cameraman got all steamed up about a new angle he'd dreamt up. |
And yes, we all knew that would happen! |

Dick Wood contemplates issuing an order that drivers should wear
coloured caps. Should they be a fetching salmon pink like this one?
Or perhaps a brighter primrose yellow?
