CAMEO APPEARANCE OF A SOUTHERN PACIFIC E-8 IN THE 1957 MOVIE "A FACE IN THE CROWD" W/ANDY GRIFFITH | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I was watching this movie today and there is a special appearance of a passenger train with a Southern Pacific E-8 in the "Daylight" paint scheme arriving at a station. If anyone knows of any other movies with E or F units, please let me know and I'll check out to see if that movie has been uploaded to YouTube to check it out like this one is.

Bad Day at Black Rock has Spencer Tracy arriving by train. Been a while and I can't remember if they are F's or E's on it.

But some ware in route, probably NYC they transferred to SP to complete the route to Vermont.

Good train scenes, but on the wrong coast.
