    Great Steam Train Movie

    Is : Emperor Of The North , starring Ernest Borgnine & Lee Marvin .

    It's set in the 1920's so not many (if any) vehicles in it but it's cool .

    Watch for it on your cable or rent it .

    I bought that movie a few months back, watch it every couple of months. Kids and wife think I'm crazy but that is a good film.

    Another Good one :

    I just learned of from the same guy who hipped to The Emperor , is called....Harry & Tonto , it's an Art Carny film in 1970 (or so) about an old man who sets off from New York City to Chicago and winds up buying a '55 Chevy sedan ans lands in California by the end of the film...

    I hope to find it to-morrow .

    The movie "Watchers" with Corey Haim is a laim movie, but he drives a red AD and I always enjoyed watching the flick just for the truck scenes. Of course there is always McGyver too, and his 45 or so Chevy...

    Expand your search to "all media". Lots of neat stuff. Loved the beach bunnies piling into the '37 Chevy 4 dr sedan!!

    That worked. Sure is a different time and culture evident from 1937 to now.
