# Castle Films Rail Road Story 72322

This silent 1951 Castle Films short shows a boy playing with a model railroad and his dreams of operating a fast locomotive on the Pennsylvania main line. There are wonderful scenes of real trains, and about three and one half minutes show toy trains. Much of this footage was shot in the actual Lionel Showroom with salesman Myles Walsh demonstrating the layout to a young boy. The film ends with the boy dreaming that he is a locomotive engineer -- so charming and wonderful didn't we all?
