This is the original programme, which has been put through the upscale and remaster treatment with improvements to audio, colour balance, contrast and most of all - picture quality.
The Heart of England beats to the roar of industry, but is also invigorated by a sense of nostalgia. Through the Heartlands, small railways exist that service market towns and people. This programme explores a variety of byways that thread their way through the industrial hubs of the region and into stunning rural locations. Footage here comes from the Severn Valley - rural Staffordshire and the River Churnet, and brushes the edge of the Cotswolds. We also look at engines serving deepest Leicestershire and the Nene Valley.
