Planning-e-mail to the Worth Valley

After having the weather stopping me film at the Ribble Railway, I had to find a new location, I decided on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway in Yorkshire as it was a railway I had visited alot since my childhood and as a result knew all the best locations for filming. Below is a copy of the e-mail corsepondence I had with the railway.

Dear Mr France
My name is James Taylor and I am an Upper Sixth student at Winstanley College in Wigan. One of my courses is a media course and as part of the curriculum I have to make a documentary. I have chosen to make it about heritage railways and the people involved with preservation. If it would be possible I would like to use the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway as my location for the documentary as it is local and you have a rich variety of locomotives and rolling stock. If you would permit me to film on the railway it would be this Sunday (6th March) as there will be a steam and diesel locomotive in service. Furthermore for part of the film I'd like to do some interviews with the general public and if possible some of the railway staff and or volunteers to get real life case studies and stories of working on a heritage line. I have with me a small film crew with me as the presenter a sound man and a cameraman. Equipment we would be bringing includes a basic HD camera and tripod and mobile sound system. This is a student film and we have no budget; the finished product will be a five minute film which will be presented before Winstanley College staff for evaluation only via the website "eblogger". The film will not be sold on or any commercial profit made from it whatsoever. I appreciate this is short notice for yourself and the railway but I would appreciate your help in this matter. I understand there will be safety issues filming on a working railway and my crew and I are only too happy to film on public areas only and purchase a ticket for travel.
Many thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.

James Robert Taylor
