The Titfield Thunderbolt

Volunteers take over their local passenger train service (against bus company resistance) when the government announces its closure.

The residents of a small English village are about to lose their ancient railway. They decide to attempt to rescue it from closure by buying up the line and running it themselves, putting them in direct competition with the local bus company.
