'The Train' - nothing can beat this for effects and drama!

Favourite comedy would be between 'Oh Mr Porter' (Will Hay) and The Titfield Thunderbolt (Stanley Holloway, John Gregson et al.)

Regards,

Stephen.

There is an old B/W movie which i can't remember the name of but its set in wartime Britain, I think it was called "Terror On A Train" there is a munitions train taking mines to Portsmouth naval base and a guy gets on and sets time bombs in two of the mines, his plot is uncovered and the train has to be diverted and made safe, there is some great shots taken in the cab and also at the lineside.

but this is todays best short film clip taken yesterday by Don Burgess http://www.burgess57.freeserve.co.uk/6201_Birkett.WMV

Aha, the bi-monthly train movie review, LOL!
Okay, you're limiting it to one, right?
A TICKET TO TOMAHAWK, with Dan Dailey, Anne Baxter and a scene-stealing little narrow-gauge 4-6-0 called the "Emma Sweeny" (actually, Rio Grande Southern #20). It's funny, exciting, filmed along the Durango and Silverton line, and it features the best movie paint job I've ever seen on a 19th century steam locomotive.
Try it, you'll like it!

I'm sure this topic has been brought up more than once in one way or another, but I thought I'd give it a go this way and see what results we get.
I've done a little research under the heading "trains" and there's quite a few titles out there.
I guess my favorite would be "The Train" with Burt Lancaster.
