The Railway Channel to become free!

[Nathan]

TRC is being set free!!

The big news, and for us it doesn't get any bigger, is that from March 1st The Railway Channel will become a free site. That's right - we'll continue making the programmes just as we have done for the last year but you will no longer have to pay to see them!

That we can now make this possible is thanks to our good friends at YouTube and, although we'll beginning in quite a modest way, we hope to build the channel up into a first port of call for UK railway enthusiasts around the world.

If you'd like to contribute, in whatever way, then we'd love to hear from you - please use the "contact us" button and let us know what you'd like to see and what you'd like to do. Already we've had offers of contribution from programme makers, cameramen, experts and writers - so the future looks very bright and one of the best things that you can do - right now - is tell everyone you know about it. More visitors means more programmmes so spread the word!

It's an exciting time as we take full advantage of the internet in order to bring like minded rail enthusists together and celebrate the world's greatest hobby - we hope that you'll enjoy the ride.

Their actualy changing the videos every day between 0600hrs and 0900hrs. If you've ever got quarter of an hour, theres something to watch.

Its a shame TRC seems to only do miniature/narrow guage/preserved or model railway, no modern day stuff...

There must be the odd one or two 15 min halfs about modern traction, although i have to admit that this is an assumption because of their seconds long clip of a man in a Hi-Vi looking out from a train to a pendolino overtaking him and a pendo running around a corner. Otherwise i can't say there is.

Im thinking its because some of Marks clips are old and some date back to September 2004 like todays 'The Monday Movie - Barrington Quarry' before TRC perhaps he sold them off?
