The first try at getting the cannonball to shoot out of the cannon into the cab caused the ball to shoot with too much force. To cause the cannonball to shoot into the cab of the engine correctly, Keaton had to count out the grains of gunpowder with tweezers. [x}
OK, I’m submitting this one to the Mythbusters to see if they can recreate getting a REAL cannonball, shot with real gunpowder, to land in an EXACT spot on a moving train. Something tells me only Buster could pull this off!
I would love to see them try this. :)

“The General”, a very funny silent movie starring Buster Keaton. It was filmed almost entirely in Oregon, too!
