Playwright Ed Waugh & Director Russell Floyd on 'The Cramlington Train Wreckers'

We have the pleasure of chatting with both Ed Waugh, the writer of 'The Cramlington Train Wreckers', and Russell Floyd, the play's director. Focused on the 1926 derailment of the Flying Scotsman by striking miners, the play tours North East England in November.

Ed and Russell share some of their thoughts regarding that fateful day and discuss their reasons for bringing this story to the stage.

This special instalment serves as a companion to our upcoming episode, which will cover the Cramlington derailment and the General Strike of 1926.
