Puffers 2
Puffers 2 Product Ref: 100020
Keeping alive memories of the bygone age of steam, this video combines the spectacular Highland beauty of the rail line from Fort William to Mallaig and back by steam train, with the equally scenic interest of the Caledonian Canal from Loch Linnhe to Inverness. We catch up with the VIC32 again at Corpach, and join her as she steps up Neptune’s Staircase and steams sedately up through Loch Lochy and Loch Oich to Fort Augustus and climbs down the Canal steps again to Loch Ness before steaming on up to Inverness.

Puffer afloat
Product Ref: 100019
For well over a hundred years, steam puffers brought the essentials of life in and out of populated nooks and crannies along the West Highland coast and Western Isles of Scotland. Now they have all but vanished from the scene, and merged into the folklore of history. In this video, we travel from Tarbert on the shores of Loch Lomond to Arrochar, Inveraray, Auchindrain and Lochgilphead to join the VIC32 at Crinan where the Vital Spark lies alongside. We sail with her through the Crinan Canal to Ardrishaig, Tarbert, Tighnabruich, the Kyles of Bute, Rothesay, Millport on Cumbrae and Lochranza on the Isle of Arran. An unforgettable experience.

Running Time approximately 48 minutes.

North West Scotland
North West Scotland Product Ref: 100018
From the small fishing port of Ullapool on the shores of Loch Broom onward to the far distant north-west corner of Scotland. By deserted shore and stupendous sea cliffs, lonely lochan, mountain and moorland where Norse and Gael have fought. This is wild and rugged country, only sparsely tamed. It is an ancient and remote part of Highland heritage with a special grandeur of its own. We hope a keen sense of this will be conveyed to our viewers being taken from Ullapool to Lochinver and Kylesku, to Kinlochbervie on to Durness and Cape Wrath. Any further and you drop off the Scottish mainland altogether.

Running Time approximately 44 minutes.

Whether your interest is the Scottish Paddle Steamer, Maritime, Rail or Scottish local nostalgic video footage. Whether you are an enthusiast, historian, researcher or simply want to enjoy revisiting many of the ships, paddle and turbine steamers together with accounts of places of days gone by, you will find something of interest here.

Of all the vessels that have worked in British coastal waters no type was better loved than the Clyde Puffer. Millions laughed at the antics of skipper "Para Handy" and the indomitable crew of the Vital Spark as portrayed on BBC television. For more than a century the sturdy little vessels, miniature bulk carriers of coal, sand, granite chips, grain and like cargoes, were familiar craft on Clyde, West Highland and other Scottish coastal waters. They entered nooks and crannies where no other vessels would, or dared not go.

These unique productions are brought to you by producer Colin M. Liddell, cinematographer and film archivist whose lifelong passion with Scotland's heritage and history provided the inspiration to document and bring these memories back to life. Experience and relive nostalgic journeys aboard our great steamers and ships, magnificent steam trains and more. Perhaps you simply want to visit your town or favourite places of days gone by.

Whatever your interest or reason, our aim is to provide you with a unique opportunity to revisit and experience past times and places and to rekindle those happy memories from yesteryear. Accordingly we are sure that you will find something amongst our list of titles to take you there.
