Supertrain

Supertrain is an American live-action adventure-drama series that originally aired on NBC from February 7 to May 5, 1979. It was known for being the most expensive series ever aired in the United States at the time of its run, though it was still beset by various problems during production such as a model train crashing. The high production costs even caused NBC to become unable to recoup its losses and nearly go bankrupt.

The series takes place on the titular train, which is a nuclear-powered high speed train that is equipped with amenities more appropriate to a cruise ship. It features various luxuries such as swimming pools, shopping centers, a gym, library, medical center, and a discothequem with its being so big it has to run on very broad gauge track. The series' plots primarily focus on the passengers' social lives on the train, usually with multiple intertwining storylines.
