Wow that's exciting. Do you know the name of the film being made? I'll have to watch out for it in the future. They fabricated the loco etc for the film, it's easy to see how the dollars to make a movie add up. Pounds, in your case. Cheers.

Oops, read the fine print Andrew. Mission Impossible, the seventh film.

Cool! - even though I hate seeing old "classics" destroyed....... But (among others) Back to the Future III - already did it!!! Now, they did end up with a cool flying train at the end - Doc Browns "family" ride - Flying Time Train!

I expected Tom to reach out and save the locomotive. He must be getting soft.

Despite the steam and smoke while on the track, I expected more from a burst boiler when the locomotive hit the river bed. Can’t help but wonder if the long crash shot was a look-a-like for the real thing. Easy enough to cut back and forth, especially with CGI. Just might see the flick when it comes out.

It was a pretty unclimantic ending.....could have something there!

I wondered why it wasn't a model train green screened for the scene.

Reminds me of Back to the Future, part III.

I saw only the first two MI movies. They all seem like they should be called "Tom Cruise Shows Off Again."
