I seem to remember the train in the film was above street level,
which makes me think that bit might have been filmed south of the
river, perhaps in Battersea or Vauxhall. (though locals in Ebury
Bridge Road told me the film, at least the bombed bits, was filmed in
Chelsea). If it was a tube train though, I wonder could it have been
on what's now the Hammersmith, on the elevated stretch, by Latimer
Road say?

My recollection of "Passport to Pimlico" is that the train was in a
cut and cover tunnel or cutting or both. It is only 40 years ago!

Well it was 56 years ago. From previous research all of the non
studio shots were in Brixton. I don't remember any tube or sub
surface trains in the film. I am no expert.

I have a clear recollection of a scene in which characters stop what is
clearly a District Line train by stepping down to the track on a ladder.
