I just discovered this site. For James Barron, tbates, Jack Franklin, and Jason Gore, "The Emperor of the North" is indeed available for sale from the Railroad Museum in Sacramento, CA. I picked up a copy this year, after years ago obtaining one directly from a friend at 20th Century Fox. Happily, they are the same, and not chopped up version we see on TV.
I first saw this film in South Africa in '73 or '74, when they had no TV down there, and watched it in a theater for 6 straight nights because I liked it so much.
tbates, there are several female faces (the girl getting baptized in the river, and the lady shaving in the passenger car) ... James Gore, one "slip-up" is when the charging fast mail passenger train roars down the track toward the 19, which barely makes it onto a siding, yet nobody threw the switch back for the oncoming train to go straight through! It should have derailed at once.
Truly a great film, and I hope you guys find it in Sacramento. All the best to you.
