Alan Snowdon Archive - Invidious

Alan Snowdon Archive

Initially via steam rail cab ride or head out of carriage windows, clockwork camera shots were rare, brief & silent. Many lines have since closed.

Ex BR & son of a ferryman, Alan was keen on all transport operations. He filmed & scripted, his widow Heather often voices naration, whilst son Robin researches, digitizes, edits & intends to complete the archive. Do subscribe, as there are many more films to publish here.

Please consider donating via buymeacoffee.com/AlanSnowdonArchive or click Youtube's heart$ to SuperThank to fund digitizing Alan's unseen cine films (& to clean/rescan those previously published) to HD video, so all can view here on Youtube for free, forever.

Do read/comment below films, swapping memories helps future audiences discover a bygone age. Alan was flattered his films have historic significance & we welcome inquiries to support preservation societies, museums etc.
