Like many small businesses, we have suffered greatly with rising costs in recent years, particularly with the spiralling prices of shipping orders with Royal Mail.
We see that some of our competitors charge up to £3 for a DVD and £5 for a book but as you know, we don't charge a penny - and we're pleased to be able to continue with this into 2025 and beyond.
However, with immediate effect, all orders will be shipped by 2nd Class post. This basically means that instead of 1 - 3 day delivery it will now be 2 - 4 days. For many years we used 2nd Class successfully and most of the time, it made little difference.
If your order is urgent, we can still send 1st Class, but with a £2.00 surcharge. Please call the office.
Thank you
2024 marks the 30th anniversary of Train Crazy railway videos and DVDs. Starting out as a hobby in 1994, just about every type of locomotive and unit has featured, with more than 400 passenger, freight, cab ride and tram titles, released on VHS tape, DVD, Blu-ray and download.
Here's the good bit... In the last few years, software to restore old grainy and wobbly film has become more accessible. Previously it was expensive, slow and not very good, but in 2022 and again in 2024, huge advances were made. The old film used on these new compilation programmes is all being reworked, improved, cleaned up and upscaled. For the first time, all of the film shot in standard-definition (720 x 576 or less) can be upscaled and presented in top-quality high-definition (1920 x 1080).
The eighth release features Train Crazy film of Class 56, 57, 58 and 59 locomotives between 1994 and 2004: Footage includes: numerous 56s on coal and steel and the "farewell tour" from 2004; 57601, the early 57/0s on container trains and the brand new 57/3s; 58s around Eastleigh and Didcot and 59s in early liveries, working their familiar stone trains.
Presented in a no-nonsense format of on-screen captions with loco number, location and date, sit back and enjoy some top-quality action from 30 years ago - with much-improved picture quality and in HD for the very first time! This is far from a complete record of these locos during these years but this is what was filmed, now re-edited, reworked and upscaled.

Great News! Our popular video downloads are now available to purchase directly on this website
We offer many great titles in Standard and High Definition. Once downloaded, you can watch the videos on your computer, mobile device or TV - and the downloads are yours to keep forever.
We began producing railway videos on VHS cassettes back in 1994. As technology evolved we moved onto DVDs and more recently to high definition Blu-rays - Video Downloads are another step forward. It isn't a replacement for DVDs and Blu-rays, it’s an additional service we offer.
After making a purchase you will receive a link by email from where you can download your videos. They are then yours to keep forever and play on any devices you like.
If you see this icon next to one of our titles, that means it is the video download version.

The shop is located on the outskirts of Blackpool at Whitehills Business Park, behind the huge B&Q, two minutes from J4 at the end of the M55.
