Vintage transport film All that mighty heart 1963
This vintage railway film, produced by British Transport Films in 1963, takes a daylong look at that vast undertaking, London Transport, and at all those commuters, shoppers, excursionists, theatregoers, and the rest who rely upon it. This is a film about London as seen by London Transport. Starting at dawn we see the slow buildup to rush hour and afterwards the midmorning lull. The scene changes to Saturday afternoon, the hurlyburly of sport and pastime, then on to the evening gaiety of the West End, while below the surface men are tunnelling the new tube line from Victoria to Walthamstow.
