Train Month continues on The Goods with a look at early train-related cinema. They first discuss The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat (1896) and The Great Train Robbery (1903) before diving into the main attraction: Buster Keaton's action-comedy train chase caper, The General. Join as Brian and Dan discuss the prominence of trains in early movies, the comic appeal of hand carts, Keaton's wild stunts, and the sentimental depiction of the Confederates in the Civil War.
