A STEAM LOCOMOTIVE IS RUNNING WILD WITHOUT AN ENGINEER TO STOP IT (TRAINS GONE WILD) AND THREATENS TO CRASH INTO AN EXPRESS TRAIN. ONLY HELEN HOLMES CAN SAVE THE DAY. A 1915 B&W SILENT SHORT WHICH SURPRISINGLY ENOUGH FOR THAT PERIOD ILLUSTRATES THAT A WOMAN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY CAN AND WILL DO THE JOB. EPISODE #26.
Great Steam Train action in the Los Angeles - Long Beach- Glendale area. SPL & SL 4-6-0's. A shot of a pre-WWI US Navy destroyer moving underneath an open railway bridge. Unfortunately a beautiful Indian motorcycle gets drowned.
The Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad (reporting mark SLR)[1] was a rail company that completed and operated a railway line between its namesake cities, via Las Vegas, Nevada. Incorporated in Utah in 1901 as the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad, the line was largely the brainchild of William Andrews Clark, a Montana mining baron and United States Senator. Clark enlisted the help of Utah's U.S. Senator Thomas Kearns, mining magnate and newspaper man, to ensure the success of the line through Utah.[2] Construction of the railroad's main line was completed in 1905. Company shareholders adopted the LA&SL name in 1916. The railway was also known by its official nickname, "The Salt Lake Route," and was sometimes informally referred to as "The Clark Road." The tracks are still in use by the modern Union Pacific Railroad.
There is also an Admiral cigarette commercial from Thomas Edison studios which looks like a bunch of hippies smoking joints at the Haight theater in San Francisco's Haight Asbury district. LOL
