Scrap Drive: Ancient Locomotives Cut Up For War Sinews. Ancient veterans of the rails highball down the track on their way to the scrap pile. Scores of outdated train engines, no longer useful, are put to the torch and thousands of pounds of vital scrap iron gained for construction of new tanks needed in Korea. Last shot shows tanks rolling by the old trains.
