O Winston Link makes a cameo appearance in the movie 'Rocket Boys'. Which is worth seeing. The boys are taking rail from an unused siding - and they hear a train coming. Thinking the siding may be active, they run up to try to stop it. As the train passes them, the engineer - O Winston Link - waves at them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
