The Titfield Thunderbolt
The Titfield Thunderbolt is a 1953 British comedy film directed by Charles Crichton and starring Stanley Holloway, Naunton Wayne, George Relph and John Gregson.
The screenplay concerns a group of villagers trying to keep their branch line operating after British Railways decided to close it.
The film was written by T. E. B. Clarke and was inspired by the restoration of the narrow gauge Talyllyn Railway in Wales, the world's first heritage railway run by volunteers.
The name "Titfield" is an amalgamation of the villages of Limpsfield and Titsey in Surrey, near Clarke's home at Oxted.
Michael Truman was the producer.
The film was produced by Ealing Studios and was the first of its comedies shot in Technicolor -
one of the first such made in the UK.
There was considerable inspiration from the book "Railway Adventure" by established railway book author L. T. C. Rolt, published in 1952.
Rolt had acted as honorary manager for the volunteer enthusiasts running the Talyllyn Railway for the two years 1951-52.
A number of scenes in the film, such as the emergency re-supply of water to the locomotive by buckets from an adjacent stream, or passengers being asked to assist in pushing the carriages, were taken from this book.
