Silver Streak Quote

Chief Donaldson: [Running from Helicopter to van] How's if going?
Agent: They don't believe us!
Jerry Jarvis: Look the Engineer is probably anxious to bring the train in on Schuale.
Chief Donaldson: This is Chief Donaldson. Who's this?
Jerry Jarvis: This is Jerry Jarvis the assistant controller.
Chief Donaldson: Assistant... get me your boss.
Jerry Jarvis: Uh he's out to lunch right now, but I'm sure I can handle any problem you have.
Chief Donaldson: It's not my problem, you've got a dead engineer and a runaway train that's going to hit Chicago in 15 Minutes. Now what are you going to do about it?
Jerry Jarvis: All right, I'll check with the signal towers. [pauses]
Jerry Jarvis: But that's impossible, if the engineer is dead, who's driving the train? [Scene moves to the train's cab showing the tool case on the Deadman's petal]
