Speaking of three rail, did anyone remeber the huge Lionel set in Superman Returns?
It was listed inI am surprised nobody has mentioned Breakheart Pass with Charles Bronson.

however there have been quite a few other cross thread references so it still counts. sign1Same topic, different thread...

Probably the 2007 version, although I think that both versions have been mentioned.:thumb: Clark, there are two versions of 3:10 to Yuma, which are you refering to. Also how about "Jewel of the Nile" if you're into foriegn trains.

There must be scores of films "starring" trains, but I bet the first was Buster Keaton's "The General" (1927). What a great film - amazing stunts, and still funny (humor often ages poorly)! And a spectacular train wreck as a bonus.
No, actually I'll have to look it up, but I believe the very first motion pictures were shot by a French fellow, and were of trains passing through a major station, back in the 1890-somethings.
*edit* Aha! The Lumiere brothers short film L'Arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat was shot in 1895.
I'm pretty sure Sierra RR #3 has been in more films than any other locomotive in history. Everything from the Marx brothers' Go West to High Noon to Back to the Future 3.
