Question? I was told by a friend that lives in Beaverton that the scene where the 19 is backing up on the high trestle was shot on the old SP line between Banks and Vernonia. The line is now a trail and the bridge is still there. This is just west of Portland. I know that the majority of the movie was shot in the Cottage Grove area. I was there before everything was torn out. If this is true, then the one question still remains unanswered. How did they get the 19 from Cottage Grove to Banks? Rail or lowboy?
