   Oh, yes, I know that. What I don't understand is the need to do it now,   
   as compared to when they shot the original film.   
      
   When they cut the power to the train in the original film, for example,   
   all you heard was the click of the relays. That indeed was what it   
   sounded like.   
      
   And yes, I was absolutely shocked at the sound effects that they added   
   in the film's latest incarnation.

   Oh, I know. I would love to see Aldwych station here in London, but the   
   Health and Safety Executive for England and Wales would likely go mental   
   if that happened today. Indeed, there is a conversation about HSE on   
   uk.railway.
