The third part of The Secret Life of Motorways is on tonight. Has anyone else seen this? A similar documentary could have been made for railway electrification, as the building of motorways and the electrification of the WCML started at about the same time in the late 1950s.
On the first programme on Tuesday, there was colour film footage of the opening of the M6 Preston Bypass in December 1958 and the first section of the M1 between St. Albans and Rugby in November 1959. I was wondering if there was any similar footage of electrification work from this era?
