I heard Sally Thomsett being interviewed a while back. It seems she was actually 20 years old when she made the film but was contracted not to reveal her age. If anyone came on to the set she had to hide her cigarettes and not be seen drinking. Jenny was 17.
I hadn't realised until I read this article that Jenny Agutter had filmed Walkabout before Railway Children - I'd assumed Walkabout came later.
I assume Jenny's referring to the electricity pylon in the back of this shot when she mentioned the 'modern intrusion in the background' in the above article
