promoted to pensionable job?
Always loved this film,I love old British films and work in the railway industry so loving thid film was not difficult for me.
I did not start working on the railway until 1991 but somehow the scenes of the railway seem familiar to me.
Watching it again on dvd I noticed that when WARNER thinks he is going to get promoted he talks of looking forward to working regular hours and also getting a pension when he retires,this line amazes me,I would think that the railway in the UK was one of the first employers to give workers pensions?.
I don't believe that train drivers did not get pensions in the 1940s.
