An insufferable journey by 'The Pain Train' shows how seconds lost by staff, for one slight reason or another, can quickly add up; causing a train to be seriously late even on a relatively short journey.

Report No. 11 in a series of 13 topical films, produced since the far reaching plan for the modernisation and re-equipment of British Railways in 1955 started to take effect, to log the many developments - new services, equipment, techniques - wherever these have been introduced. They provide a unique pictorial record of the progress of British Railways.
Because 1970 was European Conservation Year, this issue of the Rail Report Series was devoted to examples of what railways in Britain are doing to help conserve and improve our national environment. The conversion of former railway property - including that trendy temple, the Round House - is shown, yielding Nature Trails for children and training runs for race horses. Railway architecture, old and new, still makes its important contribution as does contemporary design.

A lively and sometimes evocative account of a mixed bag of passengers enjoying in their various ways a typical Inter-City journey. A cheerful and very colourful pastiche of live action with combined graphics set to the music of Muir Mathieson. This film typifies the image British Rail was keen to transmit during the early part of the 1970s. It marked the start of the age of the train, when 100mph running became standard and travelling inter-city took you from 'city to city - heart to heart'.

The film tells the story of the building of a new generation of high speed Inter-City trains. As well as providing speed and air-conditioned comfort, the design philosophy behind the trains was to extend the modular replacement concept as far as possible. Complete engines, alternators, cooling and brake systems, and electronic controls had to be modified so that they could be disconnected quickly and replaced, thus allowing fast, easy maintenance with a high degree of reliability.The film was made for the equipment manufacturers and British Rail.

The film takes place in the imagination of a schoolboy. As he looks over a railway bridge he thinks of the idea of a school sports day on the railway track. There are four events, all activities which children regularly participate in when trespassing on the railway: breaking the railway fence, last across the tracks in front of a train, throwing stones at a passing train and the Great Tunnel Walk.
In the film though, we see the tragic results, including a badly injured driver, the result of a heavy stone shattering his cab windows.
The film was horrible, made to shock and be remembered. The controversy it caused was great for bringing the issues to the public eye but it was quickly replaced by "Robbie" in 1979.

The majority of railway vehicles are fitted with cast iron brake blocks which, although relatively cheap to produce, wear rapidly in service and need frequent replacement. The film shows how an investigation into some of the problems associated with these blocks led to the development of a new type with a higher phosphorus content which gives better performance and has a longer life.

The demand for Aggregates is steadily rising. The film explains the Railfreight option: its successes both environmental and financial and future developments within this strictly commercial operation. The benefits of co-operation between interested parties are stressed and specific examples are illustrated.
A film made to promote the new Rail freight sub-sector marketing scheme to other large companies. It featured helicopter aerial photography and state of the art computer graphics. A little dated in appearance today but certainly impressive and modern in 1982.
