Following the nationalisation of transport in 1948 the British Transport Commission set up its own in-house film production unit. Launched on 1 May 1949 and led for 25 years by Edgar Anstey - a founding father of the British documentary movement - it became one of the largest industrial film units in Britain. The second volume in this series of 6-disc box sets contains such classics as Journey into Spring Let's Go to Birmingham andThe Land of Robert Burns as well as rare gems like A Place in the Team An Artist Looks at Churches and The Travolators. This digitally... remastered collection is a must for the transport enthusiast and the documentary aficionado alike. It includes a fully illustrated booklet with extensive film notes by BFI curators and full credits. [show more]
