The End of a Line:
Shildon and the Stablers
Today should be celebrated in Shildon: the first-ever passenger train ran from this little town 159 years ago today. Instead the town has come to grief, for its enormous railway wagon works closed in June, throwing most of the male population out of work.
Ken Stabler and his brothers are the sixth generation of their family to work on the railways. Through their eyes the effect of a policy that has destroyed a town's proud tradition can be seen.
Producer PETER LEE-WRIGHT
