Television and Cinema Verities #69



"On the episode I did, there were a lot of second-unit shots of the train going around the corners and things like that.  One pretty long scene that I had was in a swimming pool.  It's pretty weird to have a swimming pool on a train -- you'd think the water would splash everywhere."

Actress Rebecca Balding describers her memories of the short-lived cult series Supertrain (1979), in an interview I conducted with the actress in 2006.

    As a boy in 1979, I watched SUPERTRAIN and think that the premise was basically LOVE BOAT or THE BIG BUS 1976 movie set on an advanced train. I think SUPERTRAIN would have been more visually impressive if it was a monorail style as seen at Walt Disney World.
