For me, this is a no brainer. There are literally hundreds of movies that have been created that utilize trains. In many cases, the train may be the star of that movie. Like the Polar Express for example. In other cases, like John Wayne's, The Train Robbers, it may be a sampling of various trains within the movie.
What I want to know is: Do any of the members here get inspired by these movies and try and replicate something or another on their layouts?
For me, I like the movie, "The Train" with Burt Lancaster. In my opinion, one of the finest examples of a realistic operation during occupied Europe. I also like the Train Robbers and Polar Express as well as Runaway.
There are others, but what movie, if any inspires you with regards to your layout?
Thanks, Pete
