Production notes
- The film was shot in Jacksonville, Florida.
- In 1915, JP McGowan made a remake of The Railroad Raiders of '62 in The Hazards of Helen series #19, with Helen Holmes.
- Buster Keaton was inspired by the story of The Railroad Raiders of '62, the raid of James J. Andrews, to shoot The General in 1926.
- This is only one of three films depicting Andrews' Raid. The other two films were The General (1926), and The Great Locomotive Chase (1956).
gollark: No, and because daylight saving they're maybe both wrong.
gollark: It's "only" nearly midnight here.
gollark: Anyway, sascha, try and get ender IO going a bit, bug Terra into making AE2 components actually available to people (esp. certus quartz, meteors, nether quartz as we can't access the nether and meteors don't gen by default here), and work on the lasers.
gollark: Anyway, the emeralds there will be very useful. We need those for the arcane ensorcellator stuff.
gollark: Sorry, too late here, bye.
