Train Time [1952]

UK | 1952 | b&w | 128 mins

This film examines the operation of what was then the busiest railway system in the world - British Railways. This is the story of a typical day, which begins and ends with an operating conference, linked via telephone from one end of Great Britain to the other. We see how a sudden demand for extra locomotives in West Cornwall may affect tin-plate traffic from South Wales; how fish from Aberdeen is rushed south to the markets; how coal wagons are sorted at Toton Marshalling Yard; how the movement of cattle from Ireland through Glasgow may affect enginemen's working in the Midlands; how London's evening rush to the suburbs is handled. Through the night the work of moving freight continues, while in the marshalling yards and sidings a traffic census is taken to provide essential information for tomorrow's operations.

'Train Time' travelled on release with 'The Gift Horse', a World War II drama starring Trevor Howard, and achieved 538 cinema bookings in its first year.
