Dir: Richard Curtis
Starring: Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams

A young man with the special ability to time travel tries to change his past in order to improve his future

This romantic comedy drama features a shot of a First Great Western HST passing through the countryside, followed by a shot of one standing in platform one at London Paddington station. There are a couple of scenes filmed at Maida Vale Underground station, with 1972-stock present in one, and brief scenes of Domhnall Gleeson onboard an FGW HST and a train of 1996-built Jubilee Line stock. Finally, there is a rather good shot of a 3-car Class 150+153 DMU combination crossing Penwithers Viaduct near Truro.

The excellent and somewhat unexpected shot of Penwithers Viaduct, west of Truro. The train is a Class 150+153 combination and the building on the hill behind is Richard Lander School.

Although we do not see too much of the station’s ornate decoration, this is Maida Vale on the Bakerloo Line
