Runaway Train |
Description: |
"These slides have April 1985 dates, so I'm assuming that I must have taken these in March of that year. We (Mark Hemphill and I) had known about the train for a couple of weeks, but the weather had been more grim than usual. So finally, since filming was to conclude soon, I made the trek down to Portage anyway. I can still feel the snow/rain/sleet/freezing rain and the ever present wind when I look at these pictures. I found the train sitting on the Whittier branch. There were a bunch of trailers for the movie folks in the parking lot. There were movie people milling around the trailers. As I was struggling to get out to the train (as the fresh snow was waist deep) a movie employee told me that I couldn't go back to where the train was and that the area was off limits. I replied that it was okay as I was a railroad employee and kept going." - Jonathan Fischer - December 27, 2011. |

ARR 1801 in "Runway Train" (Now Respondek 1800) |
Description: |
Heres Alaska Railroad 1801 in a Screen Shot from the 1986 Film "Runaway Train." Today, This unit works for the Respondek Rail Corp. as #1800. Note the High Hood in the movie. This hood is FAKE, nothing more than Plywood. You can tell because its higher than the Long hood. This unit, and the trailing unit, 1812, both recieved Fake High-Short Hoods for the Film. The road number of this unit was confirmed by a former employee, Obie Meeks, who also appeared in the film on "Eastbound 12" as the Engineer. He was the Master Mechanic on the Alaska when the film was shot. Other Units in the consist include GP40-2 3010, F9A 1500 (Retired, now on display in Anchorage, AK) and GP7's 1801, and 1812. The 1801 was spared from any damage in the film, unlike the 3010 and 1812. PHOTO IS A SCREEN SHOT FROM THE FILM. |
