Tracks 1-3: live footage of The KLF performing the three "Stadium House" singles at "Woodstock, Europa" (*) produced and directed by Bill Butt. Track 2 is the official video for "Last Train To Trancentral". Tracks 1 and 3 feature performances of the songs on the same stage, set within the context of the same "cyberpunk model railway" from the Last Train video (built by Simon Cauty, Jimi's brother), giving the impression that the band, guests and dancers are performing within a giant stone "pyramid blaster" at the end of the railway line.

Track 4: support feature filmed by: J. Cauty, R. Wright, R. Blythe, S. Hampston, C. Bowyer & R. 'Nude' Smith. This track is a behind-the-scenes "making of" video for tracks 1-3, with abstract visuals and soundtrack (including elements from Cauty's Space LP), but no commentary.

Other uncredited tracks are extracts of The KLF's remix of "It Must Be Obvious" by the Pet Shop Boys (over the opening credits) and extracts of "It's Grim Up North" by The Justified Ancients Of Mu Mu on the end credits before track 4.

(*) Woodstock Europa is not a real event - the name is one of many references in The KLF's work taken from Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea's Illuminatus! trilogy.
