:39:01
That's it.
:39:03
How fast can she go?
Why, I've had her up to 55 myself.
:39:07
I heard that Fearless Frank Fargo
got one of these up to near 70...
:39:11
...out past Verde Junction.
:39:12
Do you think it's possible to get it up to 90?
:39:15
Ninety? Tarnation.
Who would ever need to be in such a hurry?
:39:19
Just a little bet he and I have, that's all.
:39:21
Theoretically speaking, could it be done?
:39:24
I suppose, if you had a straight
stretch of track with a level grade...
:39:27
...and you weren't hauling no cars...
:39:30
...and if you could get the fire hot enough.
:39:32
I'm talking about hotter than the blazes
of Hell itself.
:39:35
It might be possible to get her up that fast.
:39:38
When does the next train come through?
:39:40
Monday morning at 8:00.
:39:41
Here. This spur that runs
off the main line 3 miles out to Clayton Ravine.
:39:45
It's a long stretch of level track
that will still exist in 1985.
:39:49
This is where we'll push the DeLorean
with the locomotive.
:39:53
Funny. This map calls Clayton Ravine
"Shonash Ravine."
:39:56
That must be the old Indian name for it.
It's perfect.
:39:59
A long run that goes
across the bridge over the ravine...
:40:02
...over near that Hilldale housing development.
:40:04
Right, but according to this map...
:40:08
...there is no bridge.
:40:09
Well, Doc, we can scratch that idea.
:40:13
We can't wait for this thing to get finished.
:40:15
Marty, it's perfect.
:40:17
You're not thinking fourth dimensionally.
:40:19
Right. I have a problem with that.
:40:20
Don't you see? The bridge will exist in 1985.
:40:24
It's safe and still in use.
:40:26
As long as we get the DeLorean
up to 88 miles an hour...
:40:29
...before we hit the edge of the ravine...
:40:31
...we'll instantaneously arrive at a point
in time where the bridge is completed.
:40:35
We'll have track under us
and coast safely across the ravine.
:40:40
What about the train?
It will be a spectacular wreck.
:40:44
Too bad no one will be around to see it.
:40:47
Help me!
Great Scott!
