Remember in the cowboy movies of old...how often there were chases with the "goodies" on one of those old railway manual-push dollies...chasing the "baddies" who were on another? Aaahhhh...those were the days...filled with excitement!
Steam train whistles literally filled our nights and days when we were kids...as we listened to the huffing and puffing of the engines battling up a long incline to the Gympie Railway Station.
And at the Saturday matinees when a British film was on the programme! ;)

Great video.
Great Video, reminded me of the 'Great St Trinarans Train Robbery'. Those were the days, before Richard Branson.
Fly, I remember it.
Lee, Steam train whistles filled all 1950's British films.
Max. Indeed.
Alan, They never got that train back....
