About as bad as I have seen old Earnest B. get. The opening scene lets you know that you don’t want your young kids watching it. I purchased this movie off Amazon on the wait list and got it when it first came out. Love having it, but have to wait till little ones go to bed to watch it.

Wait until you get to the cattle car scene.
It IS a good film just not PC.

I saw this for the first time about a year ago – had the TiVO search it down and record it. I then bough the DVD back in June when it was released from Amazon. I think I have watched it about 5 times in two months. Definitely has become my favorite movie.
Movies Unlimited has is for $14.99. Just got the Jimmy Stewart Collection [through TCM] and the flier with the set had it as one of the featured movies.
Railfan and Railroad had an article on Engine #19, which you probably know is a Baldwin 2-8-2 Mikado that is currently running on the Yreka Western Railroad in California.
This sounds like a good train film. When I get my next paycheck I’ll ask the parents about ordering it from TCM.com. I compared prices on Train Films from other sites to TCM and TCM has the cheapest prices yet.
