1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,879
Speaker 1: Presenting Superman.

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 2: Up in the sky. Look, it's a word in lane.

3
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:14,279
Speaker 3: It's Superman and now Superman. Just a few hours to

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,800
go before the crack train of the West Coast Railroad.

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,359
The Silver Clipper leaves Denver for Salt Lake City, where

6
00:00:20,359 --> 00:00:23,879
the mysterious Power, through its agent, the Wolf, has sworn

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,879
she will never arrive and Superman in his character of

8
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,399
Clark Kent, news reporter for the Daily Planet, Superman was

9
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:34,320
last seen being dragged down a flight of steel stairs

10
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,960
and thrown into the sound proof room of the Wolf's

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,520
hideout near the railroad yard. It is late afternoon, verging

12
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,799
towards sundown in the world above, and still the gangster

13
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,159
Kino works on the unresisting form of Kent, bound and

14
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:50,119
shackled to the wall before him.

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,799
Speaker 1: Hey, listen you, I'm getting tired of this. How about talk?

16
00:00:56,079 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: I've already told you there's nothing I care to talk about.

17
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: Why Scott, Hey, okay, we'll see how long you last

18
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,000

00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:05,719
Speaker 2: The door you know?

20
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:09,799
Speaker 1: Okay, here comes to boss. Wait do you see what happens? Now?

21
00:01:14,239 --> 00:01:14,519
Speaker 2: Well?

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,439
Speaker 1: You know what? Luck? No luck at all? So far.

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,680
He ain't doing much talking. He's tough, voice still I

24
00:01:20,719 --> 00:01:22,519
was just gonna let it go. You know, there's no

25
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,560
more time. I didn't want to know where he got

26
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,120
his information, But it won't matter, that's what you think. Well,

27
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,480
that's what I know, my young friend. What do you

28
00:01:31,519 --> 00:01:35,359
mean you'd like me to talk? Huh? Very well, I

29
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,200
don't mind in the least in a few hours time,

30
00:01:38,359 --> 00:01:42,000
mister Clark Kent, the Silver Clipper will leave Denver for

31
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:45,599
Salt Lake. You recall what happened to the locomotive and

32
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:46,640
tender last night.

33
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: Don't boast Wulf, you didn't have anything to do with that.

34
00:01:50,879 --> 00:01:51,719
They'll find that.

35
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,079
Speaker 1: Engine, possibly, but they haven't found it yet. And let

36
00:01:56,079 --> 00:01:59,760
me tell you this, mister Kent, they won't find the

37
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,760
a clipper either. Cano we're leaving at once. Well, what

38
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,599
about this guy? He'll stay where he is permanently. What

39
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,400
are you going to do, Wolf, Nothing whatever. We shall

40
00:02:11,439 --> 00:02:14,680
leave you just where you are for all time, or

41
00:02:14,759 --> 00:02:18,319
until someone comes down here and finds you, which may

42
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:27,639
take a month or two. He know, the persuader oh

43
00:02:28,039 --> 00:02:31,599
out like a light. And when he comes to, when

44
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,479
he comes to, we'll be twenty miles on our way

45
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,919
to San Joaquin. Wait, boss, he's plenty chout what if

46
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,080
he breaks out, breaks out, don't be silly. You know

47
00:02:41,439 --> 00:02:45,080
the walls are solid sheet steel three inches thick, then

48
00:02:45,159 --> 00:02:49,319
five inches of concrete, then more steel. If he breaks

49
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:54,080
out of that, humm, I'll put him in the circus. Okay, reckon,

50
00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:59,599
he's safe. Come keno, goodbye, mister Clark Kent. You'll forgive

51
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:02,639
me if I do not say I hope we meet again.

52
00:03:07,319 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 2: But we will meet again, and very soon.

53
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:13,199
Speaker 4: And thanks for telling me where on the road to

54
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,199
San boakin Eh. And I'll give you a little while

55
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:19,159
to get clear of town and then I'll be seeing

56
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:19,960
you Wolf.

57
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: And Gards.

58
00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:25,199
Speaker 4: Eh. It's a good thing for you. I wasn't feeling playful,

59
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:30,360
all right.

60
00:03:30,439 --> 00:03:32,879
Speaker 1: You know from now on things will move. Jump in Porus,

61
00:03:36,199 --> 00:03:38,240
take the lower road to the river and then up

62
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:38,840
toward the pass.

63
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: Look.

64
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:42,319
Speaker 1: Look, you know the sun's just going down over the

65
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,120
railroad yards.

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:43,879
Speaker 2: Hey.

67
00:03:43,919 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: Course, here she is the silver Clipper, justin from Shy.

68
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,319
She'll lay over a while and then hit the line

69
00:03:49,319 --> 00:03:52,319
for lake and we'll be ready and waiting. Let's go

70
00:04:01,719 --> 00:04:02,479
twenty minutes.

71
00:04:03,039 --> 00:04:04,319
Speaker 2: I don't have to give me time enough to get

72
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:07,960
out of earshot. What was that he said about sheet steel?

73
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,840
Three inches thick.

74
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: You're a liar, wont two and a half of the most.

75
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:16,680
Look at those walls bends.

76
00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:20,399
Speaker 4: Well you might have kept Clark Kent in a vault

77
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:26,920
like this, but not Superman. There goes the concrete and

78
00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:29,759
still more steel. I'll just put my foot through that.

79
00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: And that's that.

80
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 4: Ah, the stairs. I won't go out in the street

81
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,040
tract too much attention. Just up to the roof, easy, takeoff?

82
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 2: What's this? A skylight and padlocked?

83
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,199
Speaker 1: Here goes.

84
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 2: Out into the night in the fresh air. One jump

85
00:04:52,639 --> 00:05:00,839
and we're up up hand away now they all I

86
00:05:00,879 --> 00:05:02,480
have to do is follow his car on the San

87
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,199
Joaquin Road.

88
00:05:04,319 --> 00:05:07,439
Speaker 4: Oh yes, and a fellow called the Wolf is going

89
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,439
to put Clark Kent in the circus.

90
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: Here I come, Wolf. Oh okay, hey, watch where you're going?

91
00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:21,920
Will your boys take it easy? Keno. In a moment,

92
00:05:21,959 --> 00:05:24,120
we'll be at the crossing of the San Joaquin River.

93
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,680
Do you know where that runs? Sure, down through Schooner

94
00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:29,839
Canyon Lake to the dam at walk you And do

95
00:05:29,879 --> 00:05:32,920
you know how Schooner Canyon got its name? Okay? Oh,

96
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:35,920
it's interesting. You know. The canyon took its name from

97
00:05:35,959 --> 00:05:38,759
an old mining camp. Now at the bottom of the lake.

98
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,439
I still don't see it with a roaring camp Quino.

99
00:05:42,079 --> 00:05:44,600
Until they built the dam and turned the canyon into

100
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,560
a reservoir, it must have been tough to get to

101
00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:50,040
down in a hole like that. They had a railroad, Quino.

102
00:05:50,959 --> 00:05:54,279
They broke a tunnel through the canyon wall, laid the

103
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:57,600
tracks through the tunnel and down the canyon wall to

104
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:03,399
the camp. Yeah, now you're beginning to understand exactly, Keno.

105
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,000
The camp is under a thousand feet of water, but

106
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,240
the branch line tracks still lead to the water's edge

107
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,959
through the tunnel, down the wall. Now listen, you don't

108
00:06:13,959 --> 00:06:17,319
think they could wear What was that? I didn't hear nothing.

109
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,399
It sounded like a rushing of wind or wings high

110
00:06:22,399 --> 00:06:25,160
over our heads, chicken hawk at night. Well, I don't

111
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:29,639
hear it now, whatever it was? Hey, what about the canyon? Well, Keno,

112
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,040
that's where that spare engine went last night, into the lake,

113
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,480
Right into it, Keno. It left the main lion after

114
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,839
my men had attended to the switch shut down. The

115
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,079
grade roared into the tunnel and disappeared forever in the

116
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,120
waters of Schooner Canyon Lake. Couldn't they start?

117
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 4: No time?

118
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: And the rails of the branch line were thick with grease.

119
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:52,879
Oh you can't do it again, it's wholesale. mIRC what

120
00:06:52,959 --> 00:06:55,800
of it? Not losing your nerve? Are you? Kino?

121
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,079
Speaker 2: Look we're here.

122
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, naturally, naturally we're on the back road above

123
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,839
the old junction. Come along, you know where we're going

124
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,240
down the tunnel just a few yards ahead. I'll show

125
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,199
you what's going to happen. What's the matter? Hey? What's

126
00:07:11,199 --> 00:07:13,120
that guy doing over there? One of my workmen? I

127
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,160
suppose I have several. I don't see him. He dodged

128
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,759
off again. Listen now, I don't like this. Someone sure

129
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,480
to catch her? Who there'll be a fool? You know.

130
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,079
The only outsiders are the two members of the train

131
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,199
crew on the engine. They jumped off last night, just

132
00:07:27,279 --> 00:07:30,560
in time. What the engineer? Well, where is he? He'll

133
00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:33,920
never jump again, nor we'll fire. Well where are they?

134
00:07:34,519 --> 00:07:39,199
Up on the rocks above the tunnel, shackled down? Later

135
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:44,399
they'll be found lying dead beside the tracks. Sensation, Keino,

136
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:50,439
imagine the mystery. The terror train crew dead on the tracks,

137
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:54,959
no sign of an accident, no sign of the train.

138
00:07:55,079 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 2: Oh there he is again.

139
00:07:56,839 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: Look look he quiet? Will you? What are you talking

140
00:07:59,439 --> 00:08:02,199
about I've seen it, a long red cape. He was

141
00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:04,319
just flying. You know, you're out of your head to

142
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,360
the conductor, that's what the conductor saw, cleaning the line

143
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,079
for the continent. The conductor was seeing things, and so

144
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,600
are you. You know, Come along, come on, here's the tunnel.

145
00:08:14,839 --> 00:08:18,199
I I don't want to go in there. Oh yes,

146
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:18,759
you do.

147
00:08:18,759 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 2: You know I want you to.

148
00:08:21,199 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: It's not far, but I want you to see what

149
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,319
happens to trains.

150
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:29,319
Speaker 2: And two people. People. What do you mean.

151
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,159
Speaker 1: You're a weak you know you see things in the dark.

152
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,440
You might be tended to forget who you're working for. No,

153
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,600
no definite conduct be for Well, we'll just make sure

154
00:08:39,639 --> 00:08:43,320
of that. Keep going, you know, I tell you to stop.

155
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: The devil, the cold and human devil. He's given himself away.

156
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,879
Speaker 4: This time I'll find those two trimming there, just the

157
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,000
it and we need where are they?

158
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 2: Quick? Above the tunnel A good thing I can see

159
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,799
in the dark and through rocks. Not there.

160
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 4: They are shame down to die, But they won't die,

161
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,639
not this time. There will be the witnesses that hang

162
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,559
you will It's all right, it's all right. I won't

163
00:09:21,639 --> 00:09:24,399
hurt you. Gotta break those chains.

164
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 2: Wanted to reach arm I'll find a ranch house and

165
00:09:30,399 --> 00:09:32,480
drop them at the door. They wonder what's happened.

166
