A Fairmont speeder trip across Canada. If you've never seen it, here it is!

At 70, he's still doing all his own stunts.  Note the coat and hat from the General.  I still haven't figured out how many times he goes into the same tunnel...

A lovely black-and-white film about the 'making' of The Railrodder is here:

Yes, it is just as good as it was when I saw it a few years ago.

Thank you.

A little masterpiece starring the master!  Best thing I've seen in a longtime.
