Paradise Express

After years of faithful service, the Moon Valley Railroad line is being forced into bankruptcy by mobsters who control a rival trucking firm. Old Jed Carson, the railroad's owner, is furious that slick, young Larry Doyle has been dispatched from the East to manage the freight line's finances. Doyle quickly discovers that the gangsters have been orchestrating train disasters to steal business for the truckers. With the huge farmer's association contract at stake, a winner-take-all race is arranged between the railroad and the truckers. But Doyle will not only be racing his locomotive against time. He will have to overcome sabotage and terrorism to survive!

Handsome Grant Withers appeared in over 200 films, working steadily from the silent era up until his tragic suicide in 1959.
