Watch 2 Trains Collide at 68 m.p.h.

Watch 2 Trains Collide Head-On At 90 Mph! Yippee! - video powered by Metacafe

Aah the good old days of steamy black n' white. Actually this original footage has no sound, so I added a crash-bang-wallop to spice things up a bit.

A few comments at Metacafe mentioned the speed or lack of should I say. Well I dunno, it's hard to tell how fast these choo-choos were going at from the film, but I suppose it could be 90. I mean it could have been 68 m.p.h. they were going at, but that don't sound as impressive does it? "Spectacular collision at 68 m.p.h." ... yeh it doesn't have the same ring to it.

Maybe they added a few m.p.h's for dramatic cinematic effect! I'd have rounded it up to a nice 100 meself! Don't 4get to rate - ta'.
