Watching "The Great Train Robbery". Why can't the BBC find someone with real railway knowledge as a Consultant ? In the first half hour there have been several laughable shots of the railway and signals. Two villains walking down the six foot of a twin track, supposedly the west coast main line. Sabotaging a shunting signal, again supposedly a main signal. Starting a Class 4 in a shed without anyone noticing and subsequently driving down the yard, again unnoticed. Hope the rest of the programme is a bit more realistic.
