Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This photo was taken at North Dardanelle before the making of the 20th Century Fox movie Jesse James.

The movie, starring Tyrone Power and Henry Fonda, was released in 1939.

The engine is a 4-4-0 locomotive—four leading wheels on two axles, four powered and coupled driving wheels on two axles, and no tailing wheels. It was built by the Cooke Locomotive & Machine Company in 1888 for the Denver, Texas & Forth Worth Railroad Co. as # 9.

In 1906, the locomotive was sold to the Dardanelle & Russellville Railroad where it was designated # 8. Dardanelle and Russellville Railroad is a 4.8-mile short-line that is still in operation.

Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation purchased the locomotive in the late 1930s.

Besides the 1939 film Jesse James, the locomotive also appeared in the Love Me Tender film starring Elvis Presley in 1956.

Moved to Virginia City, Nevada in 1975, it was redesignated as Virginia & Truckee # 28 and is currently stored at the Nevada State Railroad Museum.
