Rail Report 2
Directed by
As the thousands of passengers move about Britain every day, the railway system they use is being transformed : soaring concrete sustains new stations, a hillside is moved to make a new marshalling yard; express freight trains carry complete loads of oil, limestone, cars, frozen foods; griddle cars and Blue Pullmans, roadrailers and driverless trucks - these are only a few of the changes and innovations brought about by the Modernisation Plan.
