British transport color films of the 1960s
A DVD we picked up in England recently was this 4-disc box set containing 54 short films, about 10 minutes each and in color, on transport themes made between 1959 and 1969 by the Rank Organisation for screening as shorts before features in its cinemas.
They have all been restored to their quality on first release and cover a variety of transport themes as we do on this blog. Most naturally deal with Britain, but continental Europe isn't ignored. There are plenty of great scenes for those into classic vehicles - cars, trucks, buses, motorbikes, trains, ships and aircraft - and their supporting infrastructure.

Hey, forget all the transport stuff inside, it was worth the price just for the picture of that beautiful Bolex cine camera!
