Trains In Turkey
8th March 2012
As reported by MI6 earlier this week, preparation
for "Skyfall" shooting
in Turkey is underway as local media in Adana got a glimpse of
some of the trains and cars that will be used in the film. The
stunt team and production crew are now preparing the trains and
CAT plant machinery ahead of the cast flying out next Wednesday.
A number of VW
Beetles will be used in a train sequence. In the New Year, Turkish
officials said the film uses a lot of trains. It was originally
hoped to shoot the train stunts in India, but these scenes
will now be filmed in Adana, southern Turkey. Separate scenes will
also be shot in the capital, Istanbul. Images
may contain plot spoilers.
