Comment/Synopsis

A man who blames the rail company for the death of his family overrids the computer system and sends to trains heading towards each other. This is a made for television disaster movie from the 1970's. The effects and tension are not great. William Shatner is the con-man who ends up saving the trains whilst romancing Yvette Mimiieux.
