Steam & Excursion > "appaloosa" movie trainDate: 10/12/08 16:56 "appaloosa" movie train Author: djansson Just saw the movie (give it ***1/2) and it had a very authentic 1880's-era standard gauge train in it, plus some GREAT scenery. The engine was a petite cabbage-stack 2-6-0, two passenger cars and a boxcar all labeled "Union Southern". The movie tales place in New Mexico in the early 1880's and I gave the props department a %96+ for accuracy and authenticity.
Anybody know where this was filmed at? Date: 10/12/08 20:32 Re: "appaloosa" movie train Author: atsf5701 According to the website http://us.imdb.com/
The filmining locations were: Austin, Texas, USA New Mexico, USA Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA Date: 10/12/08 22:03 Re: "appaloosa" movie train Author: px320 The train used the same locomotive and some of the cars I used in There Will Be Blood and 3:10 to Yuma. It was filmed on the Santa Fe Southern close to Lamy, NM
Attached is a photo on No.2 taken about 90 days before we started shooting There Will Be Blood. We rebuilt the wooden cab and a new pilot for 3:10 to Yuma  Date: 10/13/08 17:42 Re: "appaloosa" movie train Author: scottp "Union Southern" Railroad in the 1880s? Would that be "The Route of the Carpetbagger"?
