an interesting film could be made toronto to moosonee + this route requires a show case train from toronto to the ocean in ontario. i wonder if hunter harrison or claude mongeau have seen this? i often think about alternative uses of railways when i walk the tracks north of huntsville, ontario where the ontario northland used to operate until dalton mcguinty's termination on. we would be seriously hard pressed by CN or CP to even think about filming something similar 2day.
Great Canadian landscapes! Keaton is amusing also. The ending of this film makes me laugh out loud every time I watch it. It's unfortunate that this form of travel has become virtually non-existent in Canada, save for the Rocky Mountaineer that's exorbitant rates are beyond what most can afford! The train was such an elegant, comfortable, and accessible method of transportation and a way to see the beauty of the country's landscape. This funny charming film serves as a love letter to Canada's past railroad industry and the lure of the Canadian landscape for visitors from abroad. This is one of Canada's greatest institutions bar none.thank you. This brought back to me some very fond memories of growing up and watching NFB films. Will be going west via car once we can travel again.not by speeder!!! Stephen F., I don't think that I have ever watched a Buster Keaton film even though I am in my 60's! I really enjoyed watching this and wished it was longer! Nice break from stress of pandemic.
