Snow
Directed by Geoffrey Jones
Produced by Geoffrey Jones (Films), British Transport Films
A visually striking documentary montage celebrating the grit and ingenuity of railway workers battling winter conditions, set to music with an elegiac, mid-century British sensibility.
Comprising train and track footage quickly shot just before a heavy winter's snowfall was melting, the multi-award-winning classic that emerged from the cutting-room compresses British Rail's dedication to blizzard-battling into a thrilling eight-minute montage cut to music. Tough-as-boots workers struggling to keep the line clear are counterpointed with passengers' buffet-car comforts.
