    The BBC must be congratulated on last nights program, for the layman this explained a lot more about locomotive and railway operation than the usual format of a disinterested presenter asking a series of damn fool questions.

    Especially if it is one of Mr Gresley's creations.
    Interesting to see how another railway's footplate crew goes about their business.

    An excellent 60 minutes with the crew as 'Presenters'. That made all the difference.
    The 'Beeb' should think about doing another, but mainline next time!

    An engrossing watch. However the run was supposed to be non stop but the Bewdley signalman didnt pull of the red in time, thus stopping the non stop express. Why was this? There was no passing train at Bewdley, Perhaps he didn't get the memo!

    it was very simple and very watchable....not sure what Joe Public would make of it though. The SVR looked really good on camera.

    Very professional crew.

    I recorded it but haven't watched it back yet but it was trending on Twitter and there was a lot of positive feedback on there about it.

    Looking forward to sitting down and watching it tonight. Isn't it being shown again but with no music and commentary on New Years Day.

    No disrespect to the crew who did a fine job clearly following instruction on minimalist commentary, I'm looking forward to this version which will be more faithful to the 'slow TV' concept . As it was , with there being some commentary I actually wanted to hear more- a few anecdotes from the crew etc and found it a bit of an uneasy mix......

    I thought the film was good too, certainly better than most of the other TV this Christmas but that is a discussion for elsewhere.....

    But isn't that the idea of slow TV? ;)

    I found it fascinating, educational, informative and relaxing to watch. The best TV this Christmas IMHO.

    It was enjoyable as slow TV. It would be great however if there could be amother version made with more commentary eg. where it was filmed, the history of the line, why people were out in numbers to see it; and what tokenless block meant. I had to Google it so in the end I did learn something.

    I agree with you Simon. Love the SVR line. .certainly showed Joe public what it entails in getting the loco started and moving.. liked it wasn't perfect manoeuvres and how they had to keep the speed down when all she wanted to do was run at speed great TV. :)
