Just found that the "Yesterday", also-ran, television channel (formerly 'UK History') is again showing the short series - "Their Finest Hour" at the moment, apparently started last Thursday, and ending tomorrow night (Thursday 10th March); and tonight's is the 'railways' one, and is on now (21:00-22:00).
There's also a "Their Finest Hour" listed for later on tonight (01:00-02:00, Thursday) : In all probability the same 'railways' episode again.

Its been discussed on another site and one of the catch up channels is also currently running the series in five? parts. It wont be long before it gets to youtube.

A very good programme i thought.One thing,that guy Harry Dibnah--i wonder if he's the uncle Fred Dibnah always talked about whenever he was on a steam train??Those guys certainly did their bit.

There's also an article in the April 2001 (V15/4) edition of Backtrack about the railways at war, pp204-207.
