I don't know whether "bigkids" and I are discussing the same movie here. I watched City Limits (1934) from archive.org (start titles talk about TV, so it must have been a later edit in rather low resolution), and enjoyed it thoroughly.
The story is about a reporter, financial troubles at Bay City Line railroad, and most of all the railroad president living with hobos for a time.
I enjoyed it very much. Some car/motorcycle/train chases, but mostly the dialogs between the Prez and the hobos (and the farmer woman). For realism, maybe look elsewhere, but for a fun Depression movie, I liked it. Watch 1960s Boxcar Bertha for more hobo scenes, but this one is more (old) fun...
