Snow
Comprising train and track footage quickly shot just before a heavy winter's snowfall was melting, the multi-award-winning classic that emerged from the cutting-room compresses British Rail's dedication to blizzard-battling into a thrilling eight-minute montage cut to music. Tough-as-boots workers struggling to keep the line clear are counterpointed with passengers' buffet-car comforts.

This is quite an enjoyable watch depicting some seriously wintry conditions and just how the snow is cleared from the railway lines - manually with shovels, or more forcefully by engines with snowplough attachments at the front. Meantime, the passengers sit in comfort, some having their bacon and eggs. It features some increasingly pacy actuality of the "Barbados" steam engine at full tilt all to a theme tune and imagery that conveys well the speed of the trains. If only our trains went that swiftly nowadays!
