1950 9 mins

Overview

Pimlico undergoes a face-lift; the champion fire brigade at Brodsworth Colliery execute a drill with militaristic precision, and some new safety measures are implemented at the New Cross Hands Colliery in Carmarthenshire, Wales. This eclectic mix typifies the monthly Mining Review cinemagazine which was shown alongside feature films and newsreels in cinemas in mining areas.
