Wessex Driver's Eye View VHS by Video 125. A modern class 442 Wessex Electric takes us on a superbly smooth ride from Weymouth to Dorchester, Poole and Bournemouth. At Brockenhurst we pass through a stretch of unspoilt New Forest to Southampton. Now the Wessex becomes an express - one of three an hour between port and capital city. Running at up to 100mph along the old LSWR quadruple track main line via Basingstoke and Woking, we run through Clapham Junction into Waterloo itself. The contrast between the rural single line east of Dorchester and the dozen or so tracks into London could hardly be greater. Filmed in 1994, running time 93mins and narrated by Fred Dinenage
