Production went on, just as the people of London went on, with bombing at its worst. Barrage balloons, steel helmets and gas masks - but little else - show the presence of war. People just carried on." An outside underground station - probably Metropolitan line (out west). A London Transport tube train pulls away from the platform. GVs of moving trains.

London taxis and buses on streets (in Westminster?). Greater London is illustrated on the map. A milkman wearing a cap and striped apron delivers milk to a terraced suburban house. General views of housing - 30s terraces, apartment blocks, estates and blocks of flats. We see people's shadows on the pavement as they walk. On the map, arrows point from Greater London towards the middle to show that most people commute in to work. Engineering sequence of parts being made for London Transport buses and trains.

People reach the top and a man picks up his bag (of tools) as he steps off the moving treads. People get their tickets out as they begin to leave and show them to the ticket collector.
