Filmed from the cab by driver Roland Ruffell in late summer 1964, this cine footage captures the Buntingford Branch Line in its final months. The camera looks ahead along the rails as the train slips through fields, woods and cuttings, glides past quiet stations and under familiar bridges, all caught in late summer sunshine and the soft gold of early evening. The second half follows an afternoon goods working from the cab of a North British Type 1 diesel, steady and unhurried as the light begins

On 14 November 1964, the Buntingford Branch Line carried its last passengers. A. Scarsbrook’s cine film captures that poignant day: trains busy with locals and enthusiasts taking one final ride, onlookers gathered at familiar stations to watch and wave as the trains passed by. The steady hum of diesel marked the end of a century of local journeys through the Hertfordshire countryside. It was a farewell both proud and bittersweet – a moment the community never forgot. You can relive those scenes,
