I first saw a segment of this movie forty-some years ago as part of Robert Youngson's movie " The Days of Thrills and Laughter." This segment was longer than all the others. I saw the complete short the other day on a Kino Video titled " The Race Is On. " Which is part of the Slapstick Encyclopedia collection.
This movie is loaded with action and Monty Banks and Virginia Corbin are excellent. Monty did his own stunts in this film which were both daring and very dangerous. The scenes on the runaway train passing through Carizzo Gorge are particularly breath taking! This is also mentioned at the San Diego Railroad Museum's website. There a railroad crew member said that he was amazed at the stunts that Monty Banks performed. This film puts Monty right up there with Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton in the " Thrill Comedy " genre.
As the previous poster stated. This film is an abridgment of the full length film, " Play Safe." This film will not leave you disappointed!
