The UP train was all express reefers - I don't recall any mention in the film
on whether the train was loaded or not.  In the N&W's film "The Modern Coal
Burning Steam Locomotive", there is no mention of its long train, but a check
through Guiness does indeed verify their train.  The N&W film is a real PR
job, featuring sped-up playback to get that extra 30-40 mph.  The film itself
is the story of the building and later operation of J 4-8-4 number 602.
