And I also like The Harvey Girls.

Unfortunately, that film is not on topic for today.    :-\

I liked "Three Seasons" (Harvey Keitel ) very much too.
I think someone smoked a cigarette in the film.

No, but he still needs to be wary of the caboose!

[That really makes no sense at all.  But it was fun to say it!]

Didn't the artist formerly known as Prince sing "Litte Red Caboose"?

You would certainly know better than I, DR Tomovoz!  I have great gaps in my cultural awareness inventory - popular music being one example of an extreme chasm.

AndI of course with my knowledge of vehicles don't know a corvette from a caboose.   I don't even know it there is an official caboose hunting season.

I did visit the "Train carriage" restaurant of a "Caboose" park in Lancaster County PA.  It was my first and last experience with scrapple and shoofly pie.

Pleased to share the wonders DR Ben. I'm sure Ant. enjoys some of the musical numbers featured.

Well, if you catch one, it can be stuffed and mounted.

DR BackFlip, did you just remove a post with an obvious reference to DR Jose?

of course Howdy Doody  has as much relevance to OZ as did Captain Kangaroo.

I'd never heard of Captain Kangaroo until the Statler Brothers sang "Flowers on The Wall".
