The Complete 32
Episodes
Based on a real
life story, its connection with the real-life
locomotive engineer Casey Jones of the Midwest
and Central Railroad was rather limited,
although the series did use the real name of his
train, the "Cannonball Express", and his
fireman, Wally. Alan Hale Jr. played the
legendary railroad engineer, alongside his wife
Alice (Mary Lawrence) and his son Casey Jr
(Bobby Clark). Dub Taylor portrayed Casey's
fireman Wallie Sims, while Eddy Waller portrayed
conductor Red Rock.
Kenneth Gamet
wrote a children's format gentler Western
series, against the more violent adult shows of
the time like The Virginian. The series featured
the same classical types of plots as other
westerns such as train robbers, vandals, etc;
but the plots also centered as much on Casey's
interaction with his family, particularly his
young son.

an American children's Western series that ran

around the pioneering western railroads. The
series aired in syndication in the United
