Terence Carroll’s documentary series Gone Tomorrow examines those aspects of Britain that are vanishing.
Since the Beeching Plan, rural branch railway lines have been ripped up with as much vigour as they were originally put down in the great ‘railway mania’ of the 1840s. Very few are left now, and this film records the final two days of the line between King’s Lynn and Dereham, twenty-six miles that served the scattered inhabitants of a lovely part of Norfolk for more than 120 years.
