		<description>Readers write in on the top five trains scenes in movies:

&quot;Should #2 on the list actually be SpiderMan 2 (he asked geekily).&quot;


Another:

&quot;Regarding the top five great train action scene movies, didn&#039;t Buster Keaton do a train flick?&quot;


Another:

&quot;How can one forget &#039;The Lady Vanishes?&#039;&quot;


Another:

&quot;Burt Lancaster&#039;s The Train, Sinatra&#039;s Von Ryan&#039;s Express, 
Borgnine and Marvin&#039;s The Emperor of the North, and Jon Voight&#039;s Runaway Train.&quot; 


Another:



&quot;Under Seige 2: Dark Territory (for Eric Bogosian phoning it in and watching Steven Seagal getting fatter with each passing screen minute). 
Indiana Jones &amp; The Last Crusade. &#039;Snakes. I hate snakes.&#039; Heh.&quot;



Another:



&quot;The Taking of Pelham One Two Three.&quot;



Another:



&quot;I think Buster Keaton&#039;s The General could easily take the place of The Firm or Great Expectations on the Top Five List of Movies with Train Action Scenes. Although I&#039;ve never seen Spiderman, I can&#039;t imagine Toby Maguire/McGuire did many of the stunts without a green screen.&quot; 


Another:

&quot;Runaway Train. Or is that more of a Train Movie with Action? One of Eric Roberts&#039; good films - probably the best if you don&#039;t like
The Coca Cola Kid (I&#039;ll never forget him trying to win over the Aussies with his southern drawl saying &#039;Daaaark and bubbly&#039;).&quot;


Another:



&quot;Horrors, horrors. A top five list of films with train action scenes and no mention of Buster Keaton&#039;s The General?!!! He did all his own stunts--even the one where he straddles two moving trains. Watch it. Better than anything since because, well, you&#039;ll be a better person afterwards.&quot;


 

Another:



&quot;How can one overlook the following? Von Ryan&#039;s Express (Frank Sinatra leads WWII POW escapees on a train), The Train (Burt Lancaster tries to stop Nazi train), Narrow Margin (Gene Hackman eludes Mafia hitmen a train), Runaway Train (Jon Voight on same), The Cassandra Crossing (all-star cast threatened by
plague on a train), From Russia with Love (Sean Connery loves &amp; fights on a train), Murder on the Orient Express (Belgian detective tries to solve mystery of same).&quot;</description>
