Looking at pictures of ocean liners and then looking at pictures of modern cruise ships is like looking at the comparisons of bad selective breeding in dogs over 100 years.

BIG FUCKING CHOO CHOO BOAT IS COOL IN ITS OWN RIGHT (I've seen their engines and they are genuinely wicked) BUT YOU DARE SAY SUCH SLANDER ABOUT THE ELEGANCE AND CAPACITY OF RAILWAY TRAVEL?!
There's two major things I have unmitigated FURY for and those two things are the Cunard Line (WE are better long live the white star line) AND trains, ships are better.

But they are being made. Most recent one was a film called "Bullet Train Explosion", but it's only on Japanese Netflix iirc
Otherwise we should just round up enough autists to crowdfund a project and do it ourselves
The main reason why there are not many runaway train movies is because of the less demand for rail-centered films.
