Just as the name says, I have run across a good movie that offers a great show of steam trains in service. CNW from the colors of them.The movie is "The Emperor of the North" and features Lee marvin as a Hobo.
The sad thing, is from what I've been told is during the depression, The conductor's actions were sometimes true to life. I loved watching it though, the wording was so perfect, rather then saying "Hobo" Ernest saying "Hey Bo!" which is where we get the term from. Edit: Was it a CNW train? The green and Yellow cars I mean.

Along this same line, I saw a movie called "Timberjack" the other night. The movie itself was a snoozer, but there were several good shots of a Shay moving log cars around. Brad Meyer
