- 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). - Фільми й анімація
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
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.

Jerry Bruckheimer productions practically always kick ass.
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
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
I love this movie. I don't understand why it got bad reviews. Parts are very accurate and depressing and shows the truth of the genocide of the Native Americans and the greed and history of early America. A sad history indeed...God will judge those murdering cowards...

Esses críticos se prendem à detalhes inexplicáveis! Não consigo compreender a linha de critérios que eles seguem.
Mandem eles fazerem um filme desses...se colocarem no lugar de cada um que deu um pouco do seu suor para a execução de uma produção dessas!
Lamentável...lamenrável.
Abraços ...do Brasil!💚🍀
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
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.
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!!

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 ?
This is a very underrated movie! I really love it and I don't know why others don't.
Tell me about it. It’s my favorite Western movie ever.
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
@@DaylightTwinkle there are very dangerous stunts in the movie, no wonder he nearly got killed.
Very powerful ingeniously scored scene. Loved Johnny Deep mastery gestures. Funny!
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.
People don't like this movie, but I love it. It's comedy, adventure, and action all in one. Seeing the effort behind it just makes me love it more
It quite often gets bagged out as a lame movie, but I loved it... lots of great eye candy and fun.....
OMG...u guys created a special train for this movie........great job
6:25 This truely is the greatest train chase of all time
No it really isn’t
@@BMMEC6000 what is then?

@@BMMEC6000 not bad kid, not bad
@@BMMEC6000 I also like the 1960s Disney film called The Great Locomotive Chase. Covers the same events, but way more historically accurate.
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
8:54 The fact they actually borrowed a Diesel Shunter to pull the train on the oval of Track for certain scenes is pretty cool
Watching this, I now want to see the movie.
It is a great movie!!!
Great to see behind all the work tat is put in to making a railroad look good
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
I really loved this movie. I used to watch when I was 7 or 8 yrs old just to hear the song and look at his horse...I also watched the whole program (the Lone Ranger was my hero). I don't understand why this movie didn't even pay for making it. I bought it and have watched it multiple times. BTW I'm 72 and he is still my hero...that's after my hubby; he comes first then the movie.
I loved it too---racism????
@@Cothteh what's with the "racism???"
So, 7 or 8 years old in 2013, in 2020/2021 and you’re 72? Impossible.
@@aussie_trainspotting_videos OH! DOH! There was The Lone Ranger series that first aired on TV in 1949 to 1957 and the reruns after that. I can't believe the younger generation are so lazy that they can't even look up things on the technology we have today. Plus it's my 73rd birthday in March.
@@suzanne9637 ohh thx for that, I’m an idiot.
My favorite movie ever!!
Woah that's amazing how they created this! 😃
7:15-7:24 that has to be a Back to the Future Part III reference. Her dress color almost matches Clara’s
I wish there was a sequel
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.
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
People wondered why the movie needed a gigantic budget, here's their answer!!! Lol
Wow amazing. So much hard work and dedication to make a movie 👏👌👌❤️
Hats off
It really is amazing how they built all those train cars plus two whole steam locomotives just for the film. It's just a pity neither locomotive survived, could've been used for future movies.
Filming these scenes must’ve been the toughest a funnest scene they’ve ever shot
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
It honestly looked a lot of fun staring in that movie
Keep up the great work!
Great hatsoff to all
That video was SO MUCH FUN! Love stuff like that... how they did it.
High respects for doing it real why it looked so good in the movie
Last word of commitment ....
Very very great movie
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.
BREATH TAKING!
They really built the train !!!! : O
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.)
This is amazing! This somewhat reminds of Walt Disney creating his 2 SF&D locomotives! I just got inspired here too!
Makes me appreciate this movie more. All the work that went into this is insane. Not an amazing movie, but it was damn entertaining.
This is incredible!
It doesn’t portray the locomotive and train industry properly but the dedication to the bit by building grade 2 track and switches with whole built props for this thing is insane
I love this thing, although many trainfans cringe, it doesn’t need to be 100% railroad accurate
If they aren't going to use those trains anymore, I'll take one off your hands!
+TheBlueComet833 Bet it'd cost you a pretty buck for it.
@@boxcarwillies1603 it’d cost like, I dunno, AU$10,000? Its a guess
@@aussie_trainspotting_videos 10,000 is the price of a cheap car maybe around 500,000+ I mean its a real train

This movie is the reason I love trains
5:04 I like that music
Best train movie since "The General"!.
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!
Best movie ever. I love it yo. HI HO SILVER AWAY
Don't even do that again
Great Movie

@@ramamaratnam2071 yes? What do you want
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.
10:13 i can only imagine William Fitchner was probably nervous about doing this scene standing on the cowcatcher
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.
PRLX switcher at 8:53
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.
Good film
Great movie
Love the movie and graphics
INSANE
This was favorite movie when I was only four
Sensacional!!😱😱
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hollywood movies action and vfx and cgi is best in world
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!
This is so cool! :)

no.
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!

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.
There should build a full on railway and a museum
This is awesome! I wonder how big their budget was for creating those trains and tracks.
Great job
William Fichtner is too handsome to be evil. his ocean eyes...
Wow! Fully functional steam locomotives built specificly for this movie!? Amazing work! Haven't seen the movie itself yet...
[reads on wikipedia that it were actually diesels] Dang, I should've known... -_-
Lol you can see the diesel at 8:53 and 10:00.
I mean that the steam locomotives are actually diesel locomotives, disguised as steamers...
***** The steam locomotives are not powered at all. The trains are pushed by a real diesel from the rear.
Didn't you read the bottom part of my comment? They got a diesel motor in thier tenders...
***** Explain the EMD SW1500 at 10:32 shoving hard on the rear of the train. They wouldn't be able to fit a prime mover powerful enough to move the whole train in the tender, maybe just to move the locomotive alone. Don't believe everything you read online, especially from wikipedia.

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
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
