The Great Locomotive Chase (1956)
Starring Fess Parker (Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett), this true-life historical adventure is based upon a real incident in the American Civil War. The names and places have not been changed. Unparalleled in daring adventure and excitement, The Great Locomotive Chase is the story of the Andrew's Raid, an incredible plot to break the back of the Civil War.
On the morning of April 12, 1862, a party of 22 Union spies, the Andrew's Raiders, stole a train from under the noses of 4,000 Confederate troops near Atlanta, Georgia in an attempt to destroy the track and bridges of the Western & Atlantic Railroad. Thus began a race which, had it been won by the raider, might have brought an end to Civil War bloodshed two years before the peace was actually achieved. The raid failed because of the unrelenting bravery of a single Rebel patriot (Jeffrey Hunter), but will forever go down in history as a spy story of ultimate suspense, high speed, and inconceivable bravery.
