Especially like "The Master Cutler" clip, though it was filmed in appalling weather.

 

Good shots of that redoubtable railway manager, Gerald Fiennes, on the platform at Sheff Vic before departure.

 

The interior shots of the cluttered Pullman cars illustrate how modern/stylish the Blue Pullmans must've seemed like when introduced less than two years later.
