Synopsis:
Following the nationalisation of public transport in 1948, the British Transport Commission set up its own in-house film production unit. Launched on 1 May 1949, British Transport Films was led for the next 25 years by Edgar Anstey - a founding father of the British documentary movement - and became one of the largest industrial film producers in Britain. Volume ten in this series of double-sets presents a selection of films produced by BTF for London Transport in the post-war period, and explores both the bus and underground networks in documentary classics such as All That Mighty Heart, Under Night Streets and Overhaul, as well as rare gems like Power Signal Lineman and Our Canteens.
