Last night, 8/12/04, was a film on the Animal Planet channel about shark attacks that occurred on the New Jersey Shore in 1916, and which were the basis for the "Jaws" movie.

In several scenes is a lovely European-style steam engine, hauling coaches which have compartment doors on the outsides. When it comes into what is supposed to be Atlantic City, I guess, people exit to platform, complete with station guards and batons. (New Jersey?)

I just found out the film was made in South Africa, which explains the anomalies.

Neat movie, tho.

Catch it and enjoy.
