A film of the last fell engine crossing from Featherston to Upper Hutt, New Zealand.
Filmed by my grandfather, John 'Jack' Lambert in Oct 1955 on a Paillard-Bolex H16 Reflex, 16mm movie camera.
I can only assume that the sound track was added when the film was digitized...I'd suggest hitting mute. I believe this was done in the '80s to be included in the National Archives.
Love seeing the comments with details that have been otherwise long forgotten.
Regards,
John Lambert
