Runaway Train Movie
Posted by Blueberryhill RR on Monday, April 25, 2005 2:10 PM
Can anyone tell me the name of a movie that was on TV, a few years ago that starred Ben Johnson as the engineer. It was about a runaway train that was caught by a 2nd engineer in another diesel. He caught up with the train and coupled to the last passenger car. Then the 2nd engineer applied the brakes and stopped the train , just in time. It was a winter scene.

Looking at The internet Movie Database afraid I don't think its available on either VHS or DVD But hang in you never know when they may decide its worthy of putting out on DVD.
Several other outstanding films are available including Runaway Train and Emperor of the north,highly recommend both!
The Great Northern Lives!
