Hi all I have a video called the ore team filmed in 84/85 about the ore convoy from port talbot to llanwern there’s lots tipping and loading ,an interview with Richard read and robin Meeks it’s about 33 mins of lorries and 5 mins of news reports and interviews at the start the empty lorries are coming in to port talbot on a very hot day it looks like the drivers are being hand a packed lunch with the loading ticket as they drive past a yellow portacabin has anyone local to me got the know how to put it on here for me or on YouTube please the lorries look great.

The video is now on dvd anyone interested in doing the technical bit?
