Anyway, he gets his foot caught in a switch track just as the points are closing. An F unit is fat approaching. Of course we don't see the blood & guts. But in those days we had imaginations.
Maybe someone can name the movie. I sure can't at the moment.
I think it was Sullivan's Travels 1941. A bum robs Sullivan , and run across the rail yard and get hit by the train. Every one thinks it was Sullivan.
Jim, that's not the film I was thinking of. As a matter of fact, I watched Sullivan's Travels only a few weeks ago on TCM. Sullivan's Travels was a light comedy. The film I'm trying to recall is anything but comedic.
