Atop a 19th-century coal-fired steam locomotive, filmmaker Georges Méliès' camera records the one-minute phantom ride of a moving train. From a point of view behind the steam engine, the viewer watches the quiet suburban scenery and the bustling cityscape unfold before him, as the streamlined machine passes under bridges and travels through a station.
