Actually, what I mean is what movies or tv series from the 40's, 50's, and 60's have trains as part of their settings? I am presently watching "The Great Train Robbery" from the I Love Lucy series and can't get enough.

I'm not sure if there was a train called the Silver Streak, but it pretty much follows the route of the Super Chief and the now the Southwest Chief. The scene at Chicago Union station is pretty cool at the end.

Just caught the end of a movie, unkown title where 3 mini coopers race thrugh a subway and are loaded on what appears to be the Auto train. As the group celebrate their victory the shot zooms out to the Pacific Parlor Car.
So the questions
1 What movie
2 What Location for Filming
3 Does the autotrain have a Pacific Palor Car
