Hard to believe it's been almost two years since I shot this. Truly was amazing to watch it unfold, in our town. After watching the movie on BluRay, it was fun to go back, and recognize the different rail cars from this shot. Thanks for the cool comments, guys!
3 notes: -That GE gurgling at 5:41 is amazing -Fairly dangerous post i'd think, but a good one at that. Not so much it's close ( i've been that close to its CP sister locomotives going 50-60 ), but I'm wondering if you got chased off at any point? -This footage flew under my radar, amazing to see it this long after. Great work!
@ltlman692 777 is missing a ditchlight and the handrails are bent because it hit a horse trailer and the back of 1206's train as it was getting in the clear. The hole in 767 is from someone who was being lowered onto the locos. he lost his balance and went through the window
anyone notice the fact that 777 and 767 are actual numbers for the famous nickel plate berkshires. It would've been funny if one of the locomotives was numbered 765.
Telecoaster94music that’s not why 777’s number is 777. It’s because the incident that inspired the movie happened with CSX 8888. So it’s kind of like a “homage” to the original thing, which was little to nothing like the movie
No, sorry. Tony was at the other end of town, directing. These shots were from that actual day of shooting. He was at 14th and Washington, at the time: goo.gl/maps/xzrzF
London Midland40 The scene was being shot about half a mile up the tracks. The engine is braking, already, when it comes close to me. The cars are empty, and the pipes are not real. Very lightweight load. They would back up, and do numerous takes.
a 17 car train that it's probably mostly empty can stop pretty fast, definitely faster than a 100 car one. a engineer friend of mine that usually runs short trains told me that a fully empty train like this barely weighs 400 tons
The reason why 777 lost a ditch light, it's because it rammed a horse cart at Findlay and the last car of 1206 in the siding. And the reason why 767 had a hole in the windshield..because It was in the scene with 7375 lashup when AWVR Employee Ryan Scott landed on top of 777 via helicopter with the cable still attached to him, 777 pushed 7375 again...causing Scott to loose balance and the cable got snagged and he gets thrown right onto the windshield of 767 and knocking him out.
The first one : AWVR 777 (CP 9777) the first one had the damage on the right when the first 777 crashed into the trailer of the truck. While the second 777 (CP 9782) has the damage on the left when the second 777 crashed into the last boxcar of 1206. That was the damage that you saw on 777 here. That was the second one. Yeah, that was it.

This movie might have the most BTS footage than any other Hollywood movie made in the past 40 years!

Behind The Scenes
@ltlman692 777 is missing a ditchlight and the handrails are bent because it hit a horse trailer and the back of 1206's train as it was getting in the clear. The hole in 767 is from someone who was being lowered onto the locos. he lost his balance and went through the window
it was Marine Ryan Scott who broke the window @LongHoodForwardProductions
@therealJPeterman One engineer from the WE, the trains were operated via remote control used for work in train yards.
5:32 guy on 767
Okay Then it’s the Film
i couldn't remember all the car on the train in the movie, or if there were boxcars. but I love that movie!
I've seen one of the locos used in this film in its Canadian pacific paint they still have the striped plow on the Canadian Pacific locos
The paint scheme reminds me so much of the Santa Fe. I'm curious if that is on purpose. I'll be very interested when this film comes to theaters.
Dude how lucky are you!!!!!! :)
Im living in tyrone
@Trenton Bonsell you cantz live in Tyrone lmao
Quinterria Cole that was 4 years ago bud
Do you ummmmmm........... see Long Island rail road trains? Trenton Bonsell?
Amazing wow 👍
Awesome
the events in unstoppable really happend
It was inspired by the events of CSX 8888 runaway train incident.
You saw the movie train woah that’s incredible
You can see someone in the cab! Cool
i never saw Triple 7 before. Ohio Southern saw Triple seven at the stanton curve
If you look closely at 3:56 there is a man in 777
They had to do multiple takes because the train kept forgetting it's line.
😂

nkp 765 is also has to dressed as 767

4:30 love it
@ltlman692 Yes, it is. During our three days of shooting, it would roll by my house 10-12 times a day.
rgwilder really? wow.. they must have done a lot of retakes.. also.. I live south in bellwood so I'm pretty familiar with the area..
@DisasterMaster5000 Yep. Probably from a particularly dramatic scene in the movie.
No, sorry. Tony was at the other end of town, directing. These shots were from that actual day of shooting. He was at 14th and Washington, at the time: goo.gl/maps/xzrzF
Whoa! 777 slow down and stop!
It was true. AWVR 777 was not so loud
@DisasterMaster5000 In one of the scenes a guy trys to get on the train uses a chopper, he losses his balance and crashes into the window.
is that the filming work or what
2:17
cool
2:44
Actually there was people behind the second train that's how they were controlling the front can of the train
0:34 it came in a bit quick didn't it jeez, how did it manage to slow down that quick.
London Midland40 The scene was being shot about half a mile up the tracks. The engine is braking, already, when it comes close to me. The cars are empty, and the pipes are not real. Very lightweight load. They would back up, and do numerous takes.
ya I did see it slow down when it did come towards you but I'm guessing it had some speed before that.
@@rgwilder9751 is 777?
a 17 car train that it's probably mostly empty can stop pretty fast, definitely faster than a 100 car one. a engineer friend of mine that usually runs short trains told me that a fully empty train like this barely weighs 400 tons
Was the paint scheme biased on any real railroads?
yeah. it had the front part like BNSF or ATSF. the red was CPrail because they leased the locos
Yes; the front had a bnsf/atsf paint scheme, CPrail locos, and on AWVR 767, there was a CN paint scheme on both sides.
It was remote control by the film crews vehicles
was that a hole in the window on the second engine?????
Yes.
Not sure, they should be hidden. In the movie, there wasn't one, so I would imagine they didn't want to show one, in the windows
Triple seven
@rgwilder
Why engine triple 7 missing a headlight, and 767 has a hole in it? What happened to them?
The reason why 777 lost a ditch light, it's because it rammed a horse cart at Findlay and the last car of 1206 in the siding.
And the reason why 767 had a hole in the windshield..because It was in the scene with 7375 lashup when AWVR Employee Ryan Scott landed on top of 777 via helicopter with the cable still attached to him, 777 pushed 7375 again...causing Scott to loose balance and the cable got snagged and he gets thrown right onto the windshield of 767 and knocking him out.
0:33 To see 777 & 767
looks like a camera on the right side of the lead engine
Its a broken headlight
Who operated these trains? Workers from the WE?
I think it was people who worked for the railroad this was filmed on
Wow
I'm gonna guess it was a piece of paper, or a decal.
I like awvr 777 and 767
Does Prixton actually exist?
All of the freight company brands are made up to avoid copyright. But their rolling stock looks real
Including southern pacific
Southern Pacific was real
I laid a moniker on that train which can be seen in the movie lol.
AWVR 777?
777 767!!!!!😎😎😎😎
@DisasterMaster5000 I think so
Trenton if you live there you might see 777
No, this was filmed in 2010
0:45 see the train?
were's the engineer for 777 & 767
Its a runaway train or rem9te contraled with the operator in the toliet
Train slows 1:10 watch this now D:)
What fell of the tanker @ 2.44?
thomabb I think it was a leaf lmao
2:44
17 cars
why is it going backwards
Lucas Ricklefs filming the movie
Rip AC4400CW
from 2:17 to 2:20 is that the late great tony scott
Whoa chill bro
Man that 777 was messed up
The first one : AWVR 777 (CP 9777) the first one had the damage on the right when the first 777 crashed into the trailer of the truck. While the second 777 (CP 9782) has the damage on the left when the second 777 crashed into the last boxcar of 1206. That was the damage that you saw on 777 here. That was the second one. Yeah, that was it.
777 is wrecked
0:42 that runway train has damaged on the front
This was after the collison with the horse trailer scene
And one of 1206’s freight cars.
@wilfre1291 No duh. Why would some one just make a random movie about a runaway train!
This inspired them from Csx 8888.
I yt the capbruh
Imaging the train derailed in front of you
Is this train is from the movie Unstoppable.
Corey Peters yes
Ugh Pause on 0:49 On 767 The Glass Is Broken
It was in the scene with 7375 lashup when AWVR Employee Ryan Scott landed on top of 777 via helicopter with the cable still attached to him, 777 pushed 7375 again...causing Scott to loose balance and the cable got snagged and he gets thrown right onto the windshield of 767 and knocking him out.
