A stirring railroad story with a love story to insure interest. Jealousy over a girl leads to the dastardly deed of cutting loose a number of freight cars which go rushing down a mountain with an apparently dead man on one, in imminent danger of wrecking a fast train with hundreds of people on board. The girl station agent saves them all from destruction and saves her lover, who was knocked insensible on the car by his rival. The wild ride down the mountain is realistic, and then, when the girl gets the message and she and the superintendent start out to sidetrack the flying freight and save the express from destruction there is thrill enough to satisfy almost anyone. Then comes the emotional part, when the miscreant who perpetrated the deed is arrested. The girl's hand is slipped in that of her lover as the rival is led away to prison. It would be difficult to conceive a more stirring film, or one that would appeal with such irresistible force to any audience. - The Moving Picture World, November 19, 1910
