Jim Clark, known as “The Train Man,” is a longtime railroad and film industry professional with credits on 250+ major motion pictures.

Jim Clark who now resides in Virginia City, is a veteran of over 250 major movies over the many decades. As an engineer, train coordinator and actor, he’s been killed in movies more times than he can count.

Jim has over thirty-five years of railroad motion picture experience, knowledge, script breakdown and development, budget preparation, scouting locations, equipment acquisition, transportation, props, set dressing, track construction, liaison with railroad personnel, compliance with Federal regulations, implementing and executing a railroad-specific safety program.

We are honored to have Jim do one of his many outstanding presentations for the National Automobile Museum audience.
