The Titfield Thunderbolt (1953)
Wanneer British Railways de sluiting van de zijlijn van Titfield naar Mallingford aankondigt, doet een groep lokale bewoners een bod om het zelf te exploiteren, gesteund door een geldelijk lid van de gemeenschap die wordt aangetrokken door het volledige gebrek aan licentie-uren op treinen. Helaas begint de lokale busmaatschappij methoden te gebruiken die nauwelijks als eerlijke concurrentie kunnen worden gezien.
