I love that movie and it was my first thought as well. But I was having an internal debate with myself over whether subway cars counted as a “train” so I went with Strangers on a Train instead.

Ahhh! How did I not think of Murder on the Orient Express?

And question #10 was a real toughie. I ended up pulling one out of my past, because I know there are a lot of city-dwellers and nice-weather-dwellers on the board and I can’t figure out how they’d answer. Around here, a “generic car” would either be a Ford truck or a Subaru wagon.

My thought processes or attempts at humor.

  1. Name the make and model of a popular commercial airliner.
    Boeing 747 is the first that comes to mind; there are a lot of others.

  2. Name a famous aircraft pilot.
    Chuck Yaeger far and away; others: Wright Bros, Howard Hughes but Yaeger from the The Right Stuff would seem to be the definitive answer

  3. Name a current European-based airline.
    Picking Air France since the country’s name is in the title

  4. Name a film (theatrical or for TV) where trains are a major plot element.
    Again a bunch; but since PT & A is the title of the thread I will go with that.

  5. Name a country, other than the USA, where passenger trains are a popular mode of transportation.
    Hmm- didn’t realize train travel was popular in US

  6. Name a North American railroad of the past or present.
    There are a bunch of old RRs active or defunct: Union Pacific, Penn Central, Illinois Central, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe—but gotta go with the Amtrak

  7. Name an automobile maker known mainly for fast, expensive sports cars.
    Coin flip between Lamborghini & Ferrari

  8. Name a famous automobile race.
    Indy 500 is the granddaddy of them all
