trains can fly

Margret 2022-04-19 09:01:34

A driverless train whizzes towards the densely populated city at full speed, and if it doesn't stop it will derail at the turn and fly into the oil storage tank with catastrophic results. Two locomotive drivers, one old and one young, followed behind with their own locomotives and stopped it dangerously, preventing the disaster from happening.

Denzel Washington leads a film based on a true story this time, teaming up with a new generation of movie star Chris Pine to stop a train that is about to take off. The plot is exciting, tense and touching. Both actors played well. Movie worth watching.

Unstoppable quotes

  • Connie: No, it's definitely under power. We're not sure of the exact speed yet.

    Captain Allen: I thought all these trains had some sort of dead-man brake.

    Connie: There's a wand the engineer has to hit periodically or the air brakes are automatically applied. Unfortunately, this train's were disconnected. Sir, I would gladly explain the particulars of locomotive operation to you if we had time, but right now I really need your assistance posting officers at all the mainline crossings.

    Captain Allen: Uh, one question. How do you all plan to stop it?

    Connie: We're working on it.

  • Frank: How many cars are we supposed to cut in?

    Will: 20. Why?

    Frank: 20 cars, okay. See the switch stand ahead of us? The switch stand, yeah?

    Will: Uh-huh.

    Frank: Yeah. Take a look in the rearview mirror. You see the one behind us? Way back there. You see it?

    Will: Uh-huh.

    Frank: There's exactly 21 cars between the two stands. Don't ask me how I know. So why is it that there's still more than four and a half cars that are yet to clear?
