Peak Rail Presents - Doug Copley's Lineside Images #18.1#18.2.3 - Steam in Turkey 1983

Doug Copley's Lineside Images 'Doug Copley's Lineside Images' are 68 titles filmed 1980's, 1990's & 2000's variously 12-90 minutes long. They come with Doug's own commentary and tend to follow lines of route, or particular workings, filmed over multiple return visits. Doug's videos often include interludes of impressively vocal bird song! In Alfred Hitchcock (filmmaker) style, Doug occasionally makes brief cameo appearances in his own films. Doug Copley Doug gave annual shows to Peak Rail Sheffield Branch. When he died in 2008 his films were kindly made available to the Peak Railway Association by his family so that appreciative enthusiasts can continue to enjoy his work in his memory. During his working life as a steelworks commissioning engineer he travelled extensively and the collection includes South America, South Africa, India, Turkey (steam), and Australia. The UK collection includes many secondary lines, and also industrial railways. A treasure trove. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Plenty of thrash and action, starting with huge 2-10-0s double-heading and double-banking to lift steam-hauled freights 20km uphill from Balikesir. Three consecutive films in one.... #1  near Balikesir  -  (22min) #2  Egirdir   -  (28min) #3  Zonguldak   -  (25min) From places identified on the film, Doug's tour basically describes a huge anti-clockwise circle within that western half of asian Turkey which is encircled by the Aegean Sea, the Mediterranean, and the Black Sea. Some spectacular scenery, particularly crossing the trestle viaduct at Egirdir with Lake Egirdir and the mountains as a backdrop. In some parts it is strange to see single coach passenger trains being worked by 2-10-0s, and towards the end of the films Doug indulges his passion for the fleet of huge "Skyliner" 2-10-0s built in Pennsylvania, USA. Thankyou Doug for your endless patience in recording these scenes, and your diligence in unearthing the facts to add interesting narrative to your films. They are treasured.
