Film Description: NASA engineer Homer H. Hickam, Jr.'s autobiography provided the basis for this drama about a teenager coming of age at the dawn of the space race. In 1957, Homer Hickam (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a high school student in Coalwood, West Virginia when the Soviet Union launches Sputnik, the first man-made satellite. While most of his friends and neighbors react with fear or distrust, Homer is instantly fascinated and begins studying everything he can find on jet and rocket design. While many of Homer's friends are puzzled by his new obsession, several new friends share his enthusiasm, and with the encouragement of his teacher (Laura Dern), Homer and his fellow "Rocket Boys" begin designing and launching their own homemade missiles. However, Homer's father (Chris Cooper) takes a dim view of his son's interest in rockets and is convinced Homer's future should be the same as his own, working in the local coal mines. October Sky mixes the drama of traditional family conflicts with a nostalgic glimpse of life in the mid-50's and a look at the earliest days of our journey into space.

@zz750211 May his Norfolk & Western Photography awesomeness rest in peace.

[zz750211]

@ThomasFan3751 You're correct. It is the late great O. Winston Link.

[ThomasFan3751]

I remember watching this movie in junior high school. And I believe that it was O. Winston Link driving the 4501.

@ALS2001 Wasn't trying to be an ass at all, just wanted to know where you heard that and say what was right.

[ALS2001]

@OV099Challenger Was thinking of another movie. No need to be an ass towards me. Have you not heard of "Mistakes"

[OV099Challenger]

@ALS2001 Where did you get your information from? That's famed railroad photographer O. Winston Link at the throttle, and that's 4501's own whistle, it's way too high pitched to be from the 611.

[ALS2001]

That is Southern Railway #4501 and the late Great Bill Purdie (of Southern Railway Fame) at the throttle! The Whistle was borrowed from Norfolk and Western J Class 4-8-4 #611 preserved at the Virginia Transportation Museum. The 4501 is currently being restored at the Tennessee Valley Railway Museum for excursion used by Norfolk Southern.
