Just watched above programme on BBC I-Player (first broadcast last night 28 April).

Still available to download/play till 29th May.

Some interesting stuff about 'moveable block' technology (as used on Dockland Light Railway).

Other topics covered include new Derby RTC track inspection train (which I think I saw past my house yesterday), 'leaves on the line' (extended overlaps not mentioned) and idiots on the track.

Certainly worth a watch if you have the 'catch-up' technology!

Thanks for the heads-up. For Australian viewers, the ABC has been playing older episodes of this excellent show, the most recent being Series 5, AFAIK. I'm sure this will turn up on our screens in due course.

This Wikipedia page lists all the episodes. The one you refer to is Series 8, Episode 7 (No. 66 in the overall list).
