movie 'Lyntoget' ('The Lightning Train'), Denmark, 1951

Lyntoget 1951 from El Barsko on Vimeo.

A dangerous prison escaper, a young Jutland woman and a bank clerk, who has just deprived his employer of some cash and is now headed abroad, meet on a lyntog from Arhus to Copenhagen. The prison escaper tries to deprive the bank clerk of what he's carrying. Apart from the many scenes of the lyntog diesel railcar there are cars, trams in Arhus (as in the screenshot), a rural bus, a Scandinavian Airlines DC3 both outside and in, and a roll-on, roll-off ferry (here the Dronning Ingrid) which trains crossing the Storbelt (Great Belt) between the islands of Fyn and Zealand had to use up until 1997 when the major bridge was completed.

Unfortunately, the movie seems never to have had English subtitles.
