  • I couldn't find this video anywhere on CZcams, and I just so happened to have an Atomic Train DVD.
    I guess a lot of people wanted to see this!

    There's two kinds of people: people who love Atomic Train, and people who despise Atomic Train.

      I used to be the latter but I'm the first now. I'm amazed how they made that explosion. Although, I wonder why they didn't used the actual Moffat line which is the route that comes into Denver from the mountains which was where the train was headed to.

      I started to see some downsides with the film over the years but even with that I still enjoy watching this film, even if a few scenes and the music can be a bit hard to watch or listen to.

    The stunts and special effects are impressive for a made-for-TV movie, real explosions, no CGI 😁

    I literately thought the scene when the train crashes into the building and derails was all done with real locomotives but seems to be I was incorrect

    Say what you want about this film but rob lowe did an amazing job. Plus the camera work and all the explosions that go on I think makes it pretty epic.

    In terms of how the train starts losing its brakes That’s pretty unrealistic but I do have to admit this movie is very well-made

    Feels weird watching this after seeing the movie so many times over the years. Still, I adore seeing how these things become a reality and the challenges faced when doing them.

    The producers of this movie tried to pass off Vancouver BC as Denver. Denver does not have a seaport. Also what usually trips up such fakery is fire equipment in Denver are painted in a white livery, not red.

    does anyone think the runaway should've had a somewhat longer consist then what was shown in the movie or know if they really run short trains that far IRL ???????
    honestly, 2 engines pulling 9 cars and a caboose seems way to short for a 300 mile long trip in my opinion, maybe something like 3 engines, with the third unit being a cab-less B-unit sandwiched between 642 and 644, while pulling a minimum of 35 cars and a caboose

      I think because the company that made atomic train movie could not do that because if they did then it would take John seger longer to get to bomb boxcar and then TCNR 4920 would need 4 units

      Well these engines were owned by BC Rail. 642 was sold to MHWA Railroad now numbered to 2042 but still in it's BCOL Colors. 643 was Scrapped and 644 now works with the CFS Railway in Quebec.
