There are people who like trains. I'm one of them myself, thinking it a civilized way to travel. There are train enthusiasts.... people who like looking at these short actualities of old trains. That's a little beyond me; most trains in this period look like much of a muchness, so the only difference seems to be in the landscape around the train.
Even the angle these actualities are shot at is invariable. The train enters the frame near the upper right corner, and proceeds towards the lower left. In fact, that's the norm for motion in general. If Our Hero is walking on the street, he will probably be walking from the right to the left.
