"Silver Streak" movie - Trains Magazine

"Danger Lights" proves that a Milwaukee Road F3 Pacific was maybe the greatest steam locomotive ever built. It runs non-stop from the Rocky Mountains to Track 19 in Chicago's Union Station. How's that for fuel and water economy?

And along the way, the inside-bearing trailer truck morphs into an outside-bearing trailer so the heroic hogger can reach down, raise the box lid, and fix a hotbox on the fly.

It's a great movie - but has anybody seen "Emporer of the North Pole", with Borgnine and Lee Marvin? That one ain't too bad, either!
