Converted from a redirect by Voice of Clam (talk). Self-nominated at 12:38, 14 December 2022 (UTC).
Approved, AGF on offline books as sources within article and for hook. Article is new enough (created from an existing redirect on 12 December 2022), long enough, cites multiple sources. Earwig says copyvio unlikely; AGF on books. QPQ is done. Hook totally got my attention (even without realising it was about the Talyllyn Railway, which I rode many years ago). @Voice of Clam: I did wonder: Does the Talyllyn Railway actually show excerpts from the film in its visitor centre or something (and if so, is that documented anywhere)? Will let you know if I find additional sources, but for now, if you log in to Wikipedia Library and click the embedded link, you should be able to read The Times obituary for John Snell who appeared in the film. Anyway, look forward to seeing the article develop further in the future, but for now I think it's sufficient to pass. Nice work, am looking forward to watching the film now myself.
