From IMDb: When on location, the crew built a large town set in which many of the buildings had practical rooms. These rooms soon became living quarters, holding areas and storage space. The editing lab was set up in the post office set.

Yes, it was a bit weird that there was no intro for #TheIronHorse but there was an outro.

Film director John Ford
John Ford Western tropes in #TheIronHorse:
-Indian attack. Then a few more.
-Boozy comic Irish guy
-Boozy comic frontier judge
-Ethnic dialects aplenty (via title card)
-Mixture of historical and fictional figures
-Two men fight over one woman
-Long shots of movement over vast landscapes

The judge/saloon keeper in #TheIronHorse is dressed quite a bit like Ken Murray as Doc Willoughby in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance would be nearly 40 years later. #TCMParty

The “Iron Horse” (1924) production had its own bootlegger. While doing a run one night, the bootlegger in question allegedly hit and killed someone with his car.
One day I might stop being shocked by things that happened during the silent film era but today is not that day

#TheIronHorse was the first of ten films that George O'Brien would make with John Ford, first as a leading man, and then later in character roles in classics like Fort Apache and She Wore A Yellow Ribbon. For some reason, early in his career he was nicknamed "The Chest". #TCMParty

It's a John Ford western, so it's legally mandated that there be a comic Irish sergeant in the cast. #TheIronHorse #TCMParty

Francis Powers, who plays Sergeant Slattery, was born just a few months after Lincoln died so.. close enough!

#TheIronHorse would not be the last time John Ford would portray Lincoln in one of his films, notably in the less-than-historically-accurate The Prisoner of Shark Island and later with Henry Fonda playing that "jackleg lawyer" Young Mr Lincoln. #TCMParty

I’m like 70% certain there’s at least one cast member that was alive when Lincoln was

A railroad building scene from the film The Iron Horse.
As a long-time #JohnFord buff, I'm excited to see the rarely broadcast #TheIronHorse. @benmank77.bsky.social had some great stories about its production in his latest The Plot Thickens podcast; Ford shot on location in the middle of the Utah desert so Fox executives couldn't bother him. #TCMParty

J. Farrell MacDonald como Mike Costigan
John Ford había empezado a dirigir en 1917 y antes de #3BadMen ya había realizado más de 50 películas. El film no fue un éxito rotundo, como si lo había sido #TheIronHorse (1924) pero tiene la base de todo lo que después Ford consolidó en su cine sonoro.
