Just excellent, Robin. I've been looking at this freight car over the past several weeks. Your scene incorporates a nice selection of pieces including the TG train track mat and figures. The custom engine, K&C figures, all well done. Nicely mixed all around.
 
Recently on TV there's been a 1946 French film "Battle of the Rails" about the French resistance and it's attacks and sabotage during the German occupation. For those outside the UK and interested, might find it rewarding to look it out.
It was interesting to see a German Armoured Train.

The movie The Train with Burt Lancaster was always a favorite of mine.
 
Yes the Burt Lancaster film is quite good and on regularly.
This earlier French film, has only recently been shown on Talking Pictures TV, an independent channel which shows lots of old films, though new to me, as many were made before I was born or I never got to see as they were after my bedtime !😆
The majority are British ones and never going to be shown on mainstream TV channels these days as mostly B&W, which modern audiences don't seem to be able to watch, which is a shame, since there are so many great ones, and of course some half remembered ones, giving the watcher to see them again. There are lots of old adventure serials too, both British and American from the 1950's or earlier such as a 1933, recently I caught an early John Wayne one, set in North Africa about the FFL, The Three Musketeers !
Unfortunately though, I believe it's only accessible here in UK and in Ireland.
