Featuring ex-LNER steam with a few B.R. standards and early diesels thrown in for good measure and probably filmed around the Marshmoor & Redhall area south of Hatfield during the 1950s.

Re: Trains around Hatfield (in the 1950s)
With most of these shots showing 5 or 6 roads, and annotated "Birchwood" or "Mount Pleasant" Mickey, I'd say they were all taken in N. Hatfield not far from the Hertford Road overbridge (A414).

I dare say that your correct Stevie and to be honest I only just glanced at the photos and assumed that with the open country behind several of them that they were taken south of Hatfield around Redhall and Marshmoor.
