Welcome to the website which is dedicated to the ultimate movie for people who love steam trains in the English Countryside -The Titfield Thunderbolt.
Made in 1952 by the famous Ealing Studios, the film tells the story of how the Titfield villagers fight the closure of their local branch line by British Railways. The film was made on location on the Camerton branch line, an ex GWR railway which ran through the beautiful Cam Valley just south of Bath.
