Preposterous short begins with a fine and romantic tribute to trains, with many forgotten train lines shown in perspective. Then it all ends in a train wreck (literally) when two toy trains collide. "Aw, look what you did" a little boy says to his Dad. "Actually, you caused that yourself" says Grandpa, "You'll never be an engineer!" (Grandpa sure is harsh). Grandpa then says to the Dad that he should be an Engineer too. Dad says "An Engineer like you Grandpa?" It then dawned on me that Dad is actually SUPPOSED to be a younger man who can drive, but LOOKS to be the young tyke's dad. Quite a bit of off-casting there. Grandpa then says that everyone can be their own engineer when driving their car. Older Junior is not to sure what he means (and neither do we) so Grandpa goes on and on about comparing cars to trains (not bad actually). TIll finally, to shut the old man up, older junior of course says, (and I could see this coming a mile away) "Gee Grandpa, I never thought of it that way!"
Well, I don't think anyone would have.

Subject: nostalgia and good advise
This is an excellent example of jam handy movie technique..I am always amazed as to how they can give so much information in such little time, ,,in this case,less than 8 minutes. Well worth the download just for the fine photography of the steam passenger train .But the advice that could save lives is still very relevant today
DRIVING OF AN AUTOMOBILE IS COMPARED WITH RUNNING A TRAIN ON THE RAILROAD. DRIVER IS AN ENGINEER ON WHOSE OBSERVANCE OF THE RULES OF DRIVING & THE COURTESIES OF THE ROAD THE PASSENGERS DEPEND FOR SAFETY.
