Progress Reform is an EP by the Leeds-based post-rock group I Like Trains. The EP's title is a reference to the lyrics of "The Beeching Report", which are concerned with the 1960s Beeching Axe British railway reforms. Other songs on the EP have other historical implications.
"Terra Nova" – Robert Scott's doomed mission to the South Pole in 1912.
"No Military Parade" – Roald Amundsen and the events after the polar expedition.
"A Rook House for Bobby" – tells the story of Bobby Fischer's 1992 chess match against Boris Spassky in Yugoslavia, after which Fischer was unable to return to the USA. The song's video includes a high-speed animation of the , with which Fischer won the match.
"Before the Curtains Close" – 5:32 (American version only, which also includes the "Terra Nova" video)
