Hi classicmixdj,

I agree that this is a GREAT topic.

Personally, I must embarass myself by admitting that I don't know any of the names mentioned in this posting.

Even though I like to go to the movies, I find myself unable to stick an actor's name to a character. So I am somewhat inept about this whole topic.

But I really like the idea of a movie, I wonder why there hasn't been one.

I wouldn't mind if it were a 6-part series. With lots of intermissions where songs are played.

I think it was in the Sound-stage broadcasting of 1979 where Gordon Lightfoot performed "CRT" and they showed old black&white pictures of the construction of the railway. It was very appealing to have the song & pictures together.

I can also imagine that the "Wreck" would come out fabulous with the right pictures to it.

Or "Restless" with visions of Canada.

But I have one more suggestion for the cast:

Minor Role, walk-on part: Florian Bodenseher

Where do I need to apply?
