AMERICAN RAILROADS IN THE 1940s ON THE TRACK Vintage MOVIE 70902

One of filmmaker Carl Dudley’s fine films "On the Track" is a portrait of America's railroads in the post-World War II era. The film is basically a salute to America, its railroads, and the multitude of trains that criss-cross the nation. Much like Dudley's "Life Line of the Nation", adoration for American railroads abounds with scene after scene of various trains rolling down the tracks. The railroads are depicted as the “symbol of American progress and prosperity for a great and powerful nation.” The railroads “bind the country into one strong, rich and unshatterable unit.” Railroads “move anything, anywhere, and anytime at low cost.” They are “Uncle Sam’s arteries” and “there is nothing in existence or in sight that can replace the railroad.” Features rare color views of Penn Station, railroad yards and terminals, and passenger trains including the famed California Zephyr.
