Traitors and Strathspey Railway

[deltic]

I was intrigued as to the safety regime that would have applied to last night's episode of Traitors. At one stage the contestants were filmed in an open "wagon" on the moving train which was subsequently "blown up". Presumably, drones were used for some of the filming but I wonder if camera crews were also travelling on it. Apart from standard health and safety at work act requirements, are there any specific railway safety rules that apply to such activities when the public is not present?

Given the number of shots inside the carriages and at the level of the contestants there were almost certainly camera crew onboard. I notice there were some big wooden boxes on the open wagon, which I suspect the crew were hiding inside so you don't see them in the drone shots.
Of course, filming people on open wagons goes back a long way, for example

is the Queen video for 'Breakthru' in 1989 filmed on the Nene Valley Railway.
