Overview
When you are growing up you don't realize that the time you live in will be referred to as "a simpler time" when you are older. This movie is from my simpler time. Freight and Passenger trains sharing 50% of the rails, traveling by train was the way to go and being proud of our country was considered patriotic. This movie would now be considered corny, I thought it was fun.
If you put on your 1950's hat (they wore them back then) you can enjoy this movie. If you have your 2011 baseball cap on backwards, then you will pick the movie apart. Yes there are people handling raw meat barehanded, "Corn" abounds and kids didn't usually travel alone but remember it was a "simple time".

A Simpler Time
Some things have changed a lot, some not so much. Some things have changed for the better, some for the worse. It was fun going back to the way things were when I was young. Thanks for giving access to the film.

Big Train Rolling
This film brought back some great memories of the past. It is too bad that we don't still live in that simple world where we really could enjoy ourselves, work hard and achieve success without all of the difficulties we face today.
