The image captures a pivotal scene featuring the magnificent Thunderbolt locomotive, portrayed by none other than Lion - an awe-inspiring 114-year-old train lent by the esteemed Liverpool Engineering Society. The square format emphasizes the timeless charm of this classic moment in British cinema history. Amidst billowing smoke and with cameras rolling, a group of male crew members can be seen orchestrating this humorous masterpiece. Their dedication to capturing every detail is evident as they work diligently with their film equipment. This snapshot showcases not only the artistry behind filmmaking but also pays homage to England's rich railway heritage.
