“No. 6207 A Study in Steel” is a 1935 documentary about the processes required to build a steam engine, it starts with bare sheet metal and shows you all the major tasks that are performed to turn those sheets into a fully functioning steam train.
Anyone who has even a passing interest in vehicles or engineering should give this one a watch, it’s only 17 minutes long and the entire process is genuinely fascinating.

Tons of steel on the move, drop forging, molten metal and red hot rivets are just some of the hazards shown in this film.
There's not a hard hat, safety boot, ear defenders or protective goggles in sight.
It's an industrial safety nightmare. I wonder what the injury record was like?
