I've probably put put a link to this up before on the old place, which doesn't mean that it doesn't deserve another look. Aside from the intended subject matter it does give a different, and moving view of the contemporary KESR, which in some ways is more useful in model terms than stills. The thing that jumps out though is the almost Buster Keaton-esque lack of railway safety, even for the time, with the cameraman filming through the spectacle plate of a moving locomotive fifty feet in front. Thus breaking every one engine/section rule in the book.
