Join Prince, the stationmaster's dog, for a whizz through the sumptuous English countryside as he travels in style down to the coast for a day at the seaside. There's time for a quick stroll on the front before he gets his paws on a first-class carriage seat for the journey home. Then there's a stick of rock to be shared with his son Junior.

Hate to admit it, but I went 'aww' on a couple of occasions!

What is it with dogs' and sticking their heads out of windows?

A lost era, in which I have to say, and this is just my opinion - life in the UK was incomparably better.

Yes it was, you only have to watch the old black & white films on TV
To see how clean the streets where and how polite the people were
God only knows what this country will be like in 20 years time, I dread to think  Confused
