Shame that the B-1 4-6-0 and train that Steve McQ drove rather enthusiastically into Liverpool Street had very little done to it to make it look period, it could have been returning from a 60’s excursion to Hunstanton, but the trains always suffer in these epics.
Anyone see that film the other week with Dirk Bogarde as an NCO POW in Germany, the name of it escapes me, but the scenes of the POW’s working in an engine shed in ‘Germany’ were obviously shot in Cricklewood sheds in the 60’s, they didn’t even bother masking out the BR signs on the locos, carriages and wagons, it was ridiculous, the bits of plywood stuck on the LMS class 5 at what I think was Marylebone, didn’t disguise much either.

“The pass word is courage” ; have you noticed all the key scenes from The great escape, were borrowed from this film (notwithstanding the factual content)
