NEW UPDATE! - Only one day left to suggest a train movie or two and get yourself featured for the remainder of the month!

UPDATE! So as not to create too much work for myself, from now on I'm limiting everyone to a MAXIMUM OF TWO SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE! If you suggest something already suggested by someone else, you can try to make another suggestion until you have two suggestions of your own. FROM NOW ON, SUGGESTIONS FROM ANYONE WHO ALREADY HAS TWO ON THE LIST WILL BE DISREGARDED! Thanks!

Some of you may remember 11 months ago when I began compiling a list of train songs from suggestions by everyone. Those that made suggestions received a feature in my journal.

Well, thanks to giving me a suggestion recently, I'm going to do a similar thing now, only this time for TRAIN MOVIES. Everyone that suggests a train movie for my list will have one of their deviations featured in this journal for the entire month of May. I will take suggestions for movies between now and 11:59 PM MDT May 15th. You may make as many suggestions as you like, but I will feature a maximum of two deviations from your gallery (of my choice).

The movies must feature a train. Trains make appearances in a number of movies, but they are not always featured. For the purposes of this list, the train must play an integral part in the movie. In other words, either the entire movie or a key scene must take place on a train. It can be a freight train, passenger train, tram or even a trolley car. It must be on rails (no aerial trams), but can be electric, steam or diesel powered. Also, if I don't recognize a suggested title, I'll look it up on IMDb. If I can't find it there, it doesn't count.

Ready? Suggest some train movies for me!
