Casey Jones - Classic TV shows


The thrilling adventures of engineer Casey Jones as he rides the rails of the Midwest and Central. Alan Hal, Jr. starred as the engineer of the steam-engined powered "Cannonball Express." Lots of train action scenes in these wonderful rare episodes. You can view an episode of Casey Jones on The Nostalgia Merchant video site and at VEOH.

Alan Hale Jr. played the legendary railroad engineer, alongside his wife Alice (Mary Lawrence) and his son Casey Jr (Bobby Clark). Dub Taylor portrayed Casey's fireman Wallie Sims, while Eddy Waller portrayed conductor Red Rock.

Only shot for one season, in part due to Hale's commitment to filming episodes of The Texan, it ran for 32 half-hour black and white episodes The Nostalgia Merchant has ten episodes of this series in excellent quality on three disc.
