Heads Up, Channel 4, this afternoon at 13:05, 'The Train'

For those who haven’t seen it, but I’m sure most of you have, about halfway in there’s an attack on the train by a Spitfire, MH434?, then later on, a low level raid by A-26 Invaders, all shot for the film.
Incidentally, I’m assuming the Invaders were French, anyone know much about them including their fate, can’t think how many took part in the film, 3 or 4 I seem to remember.
The trains are good to, especially the real crash, not done with models, but I mustn’t mention steam trains on here, someone has already complained about it on another thread.
So I’ll mention Burt Lancaster instead, plays his role brilliantly, worth watching again.

Do you think the Channel 4 program schedulers have been visiting this forum?

The Spitfire was a clipped wing variety, obviously not MH434, also, I think that there were only a couple or even only one Invader involved, any one going to bother to comment.
Cool old French loco’s however.
