- For the production of the movie, director Gore Verbinski had a five mile oval track built along with multiple engines and cars. See the incredible effort that went into crafting such a detailed and important part of The Lone Ranger.
Johnny Depp (The Rum Diary) plays Tonto to Armie Hammer's (J. Edgar) legendary law man in the 2013 movie The Lone Ranger.
The action adventure film brings Depp back together with the team behind at least three of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies: director Gore Verbinski, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and writers Terry Elliott and Ted Rossio. New to the party is co-writer Justin Haythe (Snitch).
In The Lone Ranger, Depp's Tonto recounts the tales that transformed Hammer's John Reid from law man to masked vigilante, seeking vengeance after justice failed them.
Also starring are Tom Wilkinson (The Conspirator), Helena Bonham Carter (The King's Speech) and Barry Pepper (True Grit).
I don't understand why this movie didn't get more love in the theaters. I love this movie.
Because it was very different from the trailer. The trailers all showed it as a purely action movie instead of the action comedy it is
Also everybody was too busy bitching about Johnny Depp's portrayal of Tonto supposedly being racist.@@alexbridenbaker9261
@@alexbridenbaker9261 It certainly did not help that it was quite long
The Trains were mock ups that had a deisel motor in the second car w/ the wood on one and coal on the other. I was the foreman who built the track for the rio puerco location(5mile oval) I am also in a few scenes swinging hammer. The whole deisel thing didnt work out too well. The man w/ the mustache has some really cool vintage steamers.
The making of this movie was one of the coolest experiences. Armie was the coolest.
Lucky so-and-so. :)
Too bad out in the middle of a desert .. maybe some preservation society (if economically viable) could have took it over .... what was the closest city ?
It quite often gets bagged out as a lame movie, but I loved it... lots of great eye candy and fun.....
So, they basically made a giant life sized train set with the traditional oval route?
I want one of those.
I've seen they still are used in HBO's Westworld
That’s very cool, actually. I wonder if that track is still there, wherever it is, and those trains giving train rides on that track.
You and me both. I made plans for one when I was younger, but it was just for fun though.
Does anyone know what happened to the engines, tracks, and cars? I think they would be great at a railroad museum
I’d like one of those with different locomotives and rail cars etc
Great hatsoff to all
Filming these scenes must’ve been the toughest a funnest scene they’ve ever shot
Woah that's amazing how they created this! 😃
Last word of commitment ....
Wow amazing. So much hard work and dedication to make a movie 👏👌👌❤️
Hats off
Has anybody noticed how in the film, especially during the scenes with the trains (That being the one where #29 crashes at the end of the line, and the final chase scene with the Jupiter & the Constitution.), the lighting/backgrounds change through ever cut?
For example, the lighting of the day before #29 crashes, and when it is about to, changes. (Going from Sunset, then either mid-day, or sunrise.)
And in the final chase scene, when the trains are racing parallel to each other on the separate tracks, the backgrounds change from a desert-like mountain, to a forest with a load of green trees. And sometimes both sort of put together. (With some tress and foliage on the desert-like mountain.)
remember these locomotives helped to built your country my american friends!! it seems the locos were given a role of a antagonist thing
In a way, the kind of did if you consider the rampant greed that came with the railroad business and the effect it had on the indigenous peoples. Kind of the plot of the movie.
The National Railway Museum in York give it the thumbs up especially from Flying Scotsman, Mallard, Green Arrow, Duchess of Hamilton and Stephenson's Rocket themselves.
Funny that, have thought about reshooting that last train scene with the midland compound as the constitution and a jubilee or duchess as the jupiter.
People wondered why the movie needed a gigantic budget, here's their answer!!! Lol
They really built the train !!!! : O
Wow they’re so proud of they’re good craftsmanship that they didn’t even bother to do any research on the real locomotives and rolling stock of the 19th century!
This was favorite movie when I was only four
Good film
Why did the movie bomb again? I started watching the old series during this virus, and I thank Disney for that. So far my favorite western movie
The Jupiter needed more screen time, same as "Casey Jones" class engine.
This is the kind of stuff I'm sutdying filming for
If by casey jones class you mean his engine, he drove a 4-6-0, the Jupiter is a 4-4-0
@@therailfanman2078 I know, that's why I said "same as"
This is incredible!
Great movie
The tracks are still there and cant be removed until the proper abandonment proceedures are followed. A local quarry is interested in resuming operations but wont place a bid for the track until Amtrak guarantees that they will never try to start a passenger service. In addition, Rails To Trails is aggressively trying to obtain the right of way and is pushing for abandonment.
The main loop near Albuquerue is no longer there.
Love the movie and graphics
It's weird how they chose to reproduce the Jupiter but not n°119 for the meeting at Promontory Summit... Why only half the historical accuracy?
Also, at 9:04 ... It's perpendicular, not parallel! ;)
Nice video, now I understand better why they did stuff the way they did!
I heard the state ordered them to stop using steam engines on the line bc of the threat of wild fires being started. They switched to an Alco SW9 but it took too long to get up to track speed.
there is no such thing as a ALCO SW9 i think you mean EMD SW9
somethings tells me the state didn't realize those weren't real steam engines. They sure as hell weren't running on steam.
Are the tracks still there? It'd be fun to build something to run on them (even a bicycle with an outrigger wheel - like a sidecar). I found the following on an article - would love to have GPS coords for where the tracks are located.
" Rio Puerco, 36 miles west of the Duke City, was transformed into the two towns, Colby and Promontory Summit, which play central roles in the film."
You can find the main loop north of interstate 40 west of Alberuqurque. The tracks are no longer there, but if you switch google earth back to 2012 you can see the whole set including the tracks.
Wow I had no idea it was this involved ._.
So much of hardwork
Amazing movie ♥️❤️♥️❤️
Gigantic budgets and they still get things wrong, when the loco rolls of the track there appears to be flames escaping from a pipe running over the boiler, escaping steam perhaps but flame, NO !
They buildt locomotives just for a movie ? Why is this not happening in France ?!!
I like this
Nice picture 👍👍👌❣️❣️
In Wich county Yo UK
Goddamnit. They did everything right, except call a locomotive a goddamn train
How long did it take to build the train
Wow
What happend to the trains after the movie
In a good way

So can be in the next movie plz

1, Jupiter met union pacific 119 when the transcontinental railroad was complete
I hope the director knows railfans are ripping him a new one for all the stupid stuff he got dead wrong. Where did the director do his research out of a coloring book. It would have been realy cheap to hire someone who knew about this stuff to point you in the right direction.
Yup. That's why the movie failed at the box-office. Incorrect trains...
...
Come again?
Well, at least the train was a real thing, and looked good, normally the just cgi it, believe me, I'm a rail fan my self
+Von Gruenheit Well said I had no idea they built the locomotives from scratch. I guess it would be way to expensive and risky to hire history for some of these stunts. I thought the trains looked nice, the movie wasn't trying to be the pinical of realism. It was trying to be and is a practical marvel minus the CG.
Von Gruenheit I'm a rail fan too
They did hire someone who knew about "this stuff". She just had no say in anything.
☺️
The sad thing is that when I saw this film I presumed that maybe 95% of the stunts were CGI and that the trains were merely scale models -- how sad it is to find this out so long after the films were made.
When the stunts are so good you think it cannot be real
Wow
Highly impressive, all the props that were used to make this. I don't care what critics say, I loved this movie!
Me too!
I'm 14 now. When I was 6, I begged my father that I could watch the movie, but he said it was too violent. I watched it 11 days ago exactly. I literally waited HALF my life time to watch this movie, and that chase was worth the 8 year wait. The movie was fucking awesome.
This is one of the best western movie i watched ,i dont know why the movie flopped.
I agree
Mainly the critics, who said it's too long and too slow (even though all western classics are like this) and the controversy around the native American thing which always come as a package whenever you touch on that dark part of American history. So in simple term: the press. Mega budget films are so safe nowadays.

No wonder why the film had a 200 million dollar budget. They had to build 3 trains (from scratch) 4 miles of track (from scratch) and it starred Johnny fucking Depp. None the less, the film was great. I watched it 11 days ago, and I've watched that chase scene so many god damn times. This movie is drastically underrated.
Tell me about it. It’s my favorite Western movie ever.
Yeah, to think they actually built real engines from scratch, just for this movie, speaks volumes of how good this movie truly was.
This movie is so underrated I really did enjoy it and now knowing these trains they actually built is even better I’ve always loved trains so seeing this was like wow I want to ride one
I just saw this for the first time recently. One of the most exciting and adventurous films I've ever seen. I honestly don't agree with the harsh criticism it got.
If the good the the bad and the ugly or Lawrence of Arabia get released in this day and age they will get bombed in the box office all the same
Jerry Bruckheimer productions practically always kick ass.
the amount of money the had to spend on building these locomotives and cars must have been insane
Did anyone mention the engines are powered by hydraulic motors. HBO Westworld series uses them still : scvhistory.com/scvhistory/lw3015.htm
7:15-7:24 that has to be a Back to the Future Part III reference. Her dress color almost matches Clara’s
For how often Hollywood wants to portray the Golden spike ceremony and the transcontinental railroad, you would think that ONE production would realize that there are EXACT replicas of the trains involved in existence.
Well how about no?
Yeah but they aren't made to do film stunts
you do realize that whole sequence was based on it right?
do the math
OMG...u guys created a special train for this movie........great job
Very powerful ingeniously scored scene. Loved Johnny Deep mastery gestures. Funny!
This movie is my new favourite!! When I was watching it I thought that they just green screened and used CGI for the train scenes, I was not expecting this!!

Well, there was trilogy planned and it would’ve been reality if it wasn’t for those film critics who caused the lack of interest that led to the film’s failure.

It is a great movie!!!
Wow! The movie really did look authentic, and this shows why! Amazing that the actors don't hurt themselves!
Miss Moose well I heard that Johnny depp nearly killed himself when riding his horse he fell off of it and the horse walked on him right in the stomach...thankfully he survived
@@mr.minebloxdaylighttwinkle442 there are very dangerous stunts in the movie, no wonder he nearly got killed.
Ok, I have not seen this film yet, but looking at this, seeing how they built locomotives and tracks and all the cars from scratch. This is a lot of work. You got to respect that! I know that the film failed at the box office, thats a shame. It would have been interesting to see more of this as a movie series. Also looking at some of the comments, a lot of train people who know the history of the locomotives in that time era. I say give the guys a break on the accurate looks and whatever. Yea they could have maybe gone to some museum or private collection and borrowed a period locomotive from there. But then they would have to worry about damaging or destroying it, same thing with the track, they would most likely have some kind of time constraint on using the track, who knows. Which is why they made everything on their own, so they have control, make sense to me. Sorry the movie failed I like the Lone Ranger character and Tonto, I even like the other movie they made before this one from the 80's or 90's one of them. Anyway guys, try and appreciate this for what it is, kick back, and just have fun watching be entertained.

My ancestors helped to build the Portuguese Railways in 1850/1860s in the mid 19th century
Mind blown. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
They could have just shot the train scenes at the Golden Spike museum in Promontory and built rubber replicas of the Jupiter and 119 for the crash scenes.
I'm honestly very impressed that they included the Jupiter because the Jupiter was actually a real locomotive In fact there is actually a Replica of the Jupiter that is actually operating and And it is used for the golden spike reunion for the transcontinental railroad
Is John's train a Rogers 10-wheeler? That's the last train Casey Jones drove!
Great to see behind all the work tat is put in to making a railroad look good
If they built their own trains for the movie, why not build them to be accurate to the era? These look more like steam locomotives from the 1890s and 1900s, rather than the 1860s. Even the Jupiter, which is based on a real 1860s engine, looks like a much newer engine painted to look like Jupiter. Also, the Constitution is based on Illinois Central 382, Casey Jones's engine, which was built in 1898. I just don't understand why they didn't build them to be accurate to the era - it's not like it would have been any more expensive, and the movie would have looked more plausible.
So what happened to the locomotives once the movie was over with?
RatFink 238 they were sold to the Fillmore and Western Railway and were repainted to be reused in other movies like west world
Train soul 14 Why didn't they go to Railtown 1897, those trains would've looked good with Sierra Railway #3
Robert Lucido that I’m not too sure of myself, I’m guessing maybe railtown 1897 didn’t have any use for them or something. However I do agree that it would look great with the #3.
Fun fact Sierra Railway #3 was used in an episode of the original Lone Ranger tv show in the episode called, "The twisted track," but why don't they use Sierra Railway #3 for movies anymore
@@robertlucido3686 too historically iconic is my guess. Steam engines aren't expendable anymore. They're priceless. So its too risky to have a real steam engine in movies. Mock ups are the way too go. Which gives a lot more creative freedom for how the engines will look
They should have just borrowed the replica Jupiter and 119 from promontory summit. Along with perhaps seara railroad No 3.
When I see this movie I’m probably going to die
7:23 thats the same to back to the future part33

-Casting call for 'background' on this big budget movie was well attended in Alb NM. Earlier the better, lines were long. When noted as a likely 'background' subject, a small star was silently drawn by the casting assistants, on the application.
Period attire, beards of substantial coverage, any unique appearance, or talent, almost guarantees a job on these exciting western action sets.
Disney productions are well received among the locals that work these sets, long hours, pay is better, nicer facilities. Disney does not disappoint on the expectations..
Catered food is wonderful on Disney sets and of excellent selection.. Had several weeks reserved, but due to family crisis, missed the part. With these trains, would have been an interesting, memorable gig ;
'Wild Hogs', Disney..., was also Albuquerque {Madrid NM} and great fun.
Comanche Moon, ..Val Kilmer {prequel to Lonesome Dove} specially built Victorian set south of Santa Fe NM, had many excellent action scenes, but ended up cut, due to rapes and scalpings not exactly PC?
Comanche raiding, burning of Austin, was chaotic, exciting.. and very Hot ;
My favorite movie ever!!
Hollywood movies action and vfx and cgi is best in world
PRLX switcher at 8:53
What better way to do than listing all the things wrong with the train scenes... IN SONG!
♫ That's the wrong lever to start the train
The boiler pressure's naught again
Why do none of the cars have their brakes applied?
That's dangerous!
Not sure boilers are that bulletproof
Why are all those men up on that roof?
It could hold their weight, but the horse's hoof
Would liiiikely go through it
♫ He grabbed the throttle wrong
You need to pull it back to go forwards
Switch stands only indicate direction
Hitting them won't change the points
How is a a 4-4-0 catching up?
A ten-wheeler should be way ahead of them
Maybe they'd be faster
If they fixed all the leaking joints
There's also this bit with the air brake
But...
We've already been over that...
♫ Why's there another track going up that ridge?
They did an awful job when they built that bridge
How'd he fit a horse in that carriage?
The dooooor isn't wide enough
The cars are going faster than the train
Look, there's those weird couplers again
Why's a brake wheel there?
It'd be such a pain to reach when you want to stop
♫ Why are passengers still aboard
A train that was stopped in the town?
You'd think they'd walk around
And celebrate the railway opening
Somehow, these hopper cars
Are moving faster than before
They really should have stopped
Climbing that steep grade
Speaking of grades, let's look at this track:
For some reason, the railway splits into two separate
Lines, but both travel along the same path
It wasn't unheard of for two lines to be built
Parallel during the construction of the Transcontinental
But to have both in a canyon like this
Is pretty damn mental
One track is like a rollercoaster
Going up, down, and around
That seems like alot of wasted effort
Surely, you'd choose the route
Much closer to the ground
The grades are just too steep for an engine to climb
It's stupid
It's janky
And one messed up railway line
♫ Why are the cars so fast?
You'd think that on such poor track
They would have easily come off the rails by now
These hopper cars are whack
They have a weird shared-truck design
That makes no sense to me and it just looks dumb
♫ Nobody would build tracks like this
The line's too steep and the bend's too sharp
No way a car would keep that much momentum
Moving on it's side
That crash would flip that van
And throw off at least one hopper car
The metal frame wouldn't break when hit
So the van would slide
Or, you know
Also derail the carriages that collide with it
♫ Somehow, the throttle applies the brake
That reverser is wrong for God's sake
Every wrong detail I swear will take
A year off my lifespan
Shooting a coupler won't break it
A car goes missing for a bit
This movie is the biggest pile of shit I've ever seen
♫ At least it sends
Jupiter out in a blaze of glory
Even though
It's boring and dumb story
Finally, the train wreck happens
How has this part not collapsed?
From the engine's weight?
The wood, it should have snapped
I...
Guess they really did use galvanized square steel
♫ In the end
In the movie the Lone Ranger
All the trains only ever get stranger
How did Disney and Verbinski
Make a meal out of this show?
Verbinski's the same guy who helped direct Rango
God, this movie annoys me
And I hope I never have to watch it ever again!
The fact that they put this much effort into making the film, down to building the track AND building functioning steam engines based on real engines from that post civil war era, honestly makes the bashing this movie got irrelevant. This movie and all the effort and practical effects that went into it are borderline BEAUTIFUL.
I can't help but wonder what happened to the engines, rolling stock, tracks and scenes they built from scratch for this movie
the trains got sold to the fillmore and western railroad in fillmore california they got used in many more productions after this the tracks were all ripped up i assume the scenes were too
@@oregonrailfan7046 so... in the making of the movie the locomotives where radio controlled like in the "Unstoppable" movie or they where actual water-and-coal functioning ones?
@@freddyfazbearsgamingymas6722 no they very obviously aren’t actual functioning steam engines how could you not tell
So that's you make the train scene from the lone ranger
That video was SO MUCH FUN! Love stuff like that... how they did it.
Another case of Hollywood wanabe's railroading ,why do they not want to involve the real thing ,I did in the Monty Walsh movie
does anyone think, considering the fact that these 2 engines still exist, that it would be possible to turn these amazing engines into true steam powered locomotives?
if you think about it, all of the components are there, you just need a boiler, pistons, etc.
the chassis is already made, so is the tender and rolling stock. so i wouldn't see why it isn't possible.

framfull well this seen to be done in the west old times and I don't remember any Asians in the west in older times
Austin E the original transcontinetal railroad was mainly built by Chinese and Irish Navvies.

Dec. 2017--Look it up....the Chinese were the ones doing all the labor building the tracks, clearing out tunnels after dynamite was used to make them.
