Review of The Great Locomotive Chase

This movie is a historical film that stays mostly true to the original storyline with only a few small creative liberties being taken and the reason it could be filmed that way is because the real story was that thrilling the acting in the movie was very good and the music was also great and the trains were both great to look at and also looked very much like the origonals (I have seen both the general and the Texas) the movie is entertaining and will entertain anyone interested in the civil war as well as train lovers. The only historical inaccuracys are small ones barely worth mentioning like in the movie the steam locomotive yonah is a 4-2-0 type instead of a 4-4-0 type like the real engine and the character william "Bull" Cambell is portrayed as a soildger when in reality he was a civilian but those are tiny nitpicks that most people wont care about so I definitely recommend thus movie for both entertainment and to learn about the real life event that cane very close the shortening the civil war by 2 years or possibly end it if the raid didnt fail.
