With the added attraction of the running of a shuttle train from Bury to Ramsbottom made up of 4 B.R. Mk1 Blue and Grey Carriages, the attraction of a shunter hauled shuttle, and Foot-plate experience rides in Bury Bolton Street this really was the event of the year (and probably the decade).From five and a half hours of video footage A.V.V. presents a three hour video encompassing all that was best in the Mega Mix 2.

Approximate Running Time - 180 Minutes
