The Train Now Standing
1972–1973, English, on ITV1. Created by Derrick Goodwin.
War vet Hedley Green has been the station master of Burberry Halt railway station for 30 years. A quiet, run-down country station on the Milchester line that sees three trains a day, Hedley stills wears the uniform of the Great Western Railway and uses a 1933 rulebook. Assisted by Peter Pringle, their time is mostly spent dealing with crises caused by area manager Mr Potts, who is later replaced by Mr Pitts.
