A British transport film, believed mid 1960s promoting coach travel. Coach enthusiasts will like this, sadly the colour quality has deteriorated over the years.
Do I watch this film again a few times to see if the director is playing games with us? Is it a one-off? Am I mistaken? Look at 07.42 to 07.44. Slow the playback speed down, if it helps you. The foot is never fully slid into the walking boot, that is a right foot going into a left-handed boot. Quite separate. Does anyone know what the booth is to the right of the man at 01.14? Looks like a photo booth, but from what I can make out it relates to records. Were there ever booths to pop into and listen to records?
I see what you mean about the boot , and the Studio booth well in the fifties/ sixties most large train and coach stations had record recording booths , in fact my mate and I cut a disc in one in the late sixties, just for a laugh, as to the boot no idea what's going on there definitely the wrong foot though
Always used crosville bus 50s & 60s , Happy times , when you had a conductor on a bus to see to the passengers needs luggage etc, before Greed set driver would do both jobs , but could not in reality 1959 the conductor gave on a small roll of tickets.....which I have to this day

Aah, when the world catered for normal people, and not just the privileged few.
