Large Scale Central

The Train w Burt Lancaster

DirectV satilite is showing ““The Train”” with Burt Lancaster @ 7:00 pm central time, according to my directv schedule guide…

Watched it on “the Turner Movie Channel”, thanks for the heads up.

This is one of the best railway movies ever. When the 0-6-0 Bourbenause loco derails and almost kills the camera cew is extremely real (because it was!) Great movie.
Regards, Danny Sheehan in Oz.

Actually the camera that got the shot of the loco derailing and almost hitting it was unmanned. The director had an extra camera and decided to mount track side in a small hole not knowing that it would eventually get one of the most spectacular shots in film history (my opinion). All in all a great railway flick that has just tons of memorable scenes.
