Johnny Morris 'Railway Series' recordings get digitized

The rarely heard first vinyl recordings of The Railway Series adapted for audio format are now iTunes products.

The original tellings by the late, Animal Magic presenter, Johnny Morris were turned into digital form since the start of December 2011 by The Lost Noises Office who specialise in selling dated spoken word and music records.
The final two 1962 story narrations from The Three Railway Engines book, The Sad Story of Henry and Edward, Gordon and Henry are able to be purchased by Apple's paid On Demand service.

Altogether, the files run at an aggregated 10 minutes in duration. Morris ended his role in voicing the titles when Percy the Small Engine's merchandising spinoff was released.

Johnny Morris' Three Railway Engines duo narrations by The Lost Noises Office are each available to buy on iTunes in the UK, US and Australia for £0.79, $0.99 and $1.69, respectively.
