Trains and such ...

Although only one character is arguably well known for being "stronger than a locomotive", it occurred to me that train stoppers are actually to be found in abundance.
Suppose I just want to see the best and greatest instances people know of and get them to show and tell here. Comic scenes, YouTube clips, etcetera are welcome. Most any family-friendly train themed submissions will be appreciated.
I'll begin:
1) Donna Troy.

Got good results here for day one ... repliers outstripping my own input with characters I never really knew had these feats ...
Then, early on, let me present what I think is the BEST train scene, at least as far as superhero action goes, portrayed in any media format I personally know of. Hopefully this link will last for awhile ...
So be it if it doesn't ...
Cake if anyone actually exceeds this showing ...

Quite a story on this one. Not a train stoppage, but a real-life woman who actually managed to pull a train a short distance.

Of course not. Sorry, I know the last caption box suggests that, I'm missing the scan. On the next page Rand is shown unscathed with his tattoo glowing.

Ah! Thought at first it might be some alternate reality where Danny DID by the farm,
or even the temporary death that preceded the Resurrection storyline I've seen mentioned somewhere online.
Glad to hear it's none of those.
Good feat, then!

Yes I just noticed i didn't have the next link there, when I made it I thought I did but over looked it. Unfortunately I no longer have any of those scans since my pc broke before i could transfer it all.

Found it via google (don't know why I didn't think of doing that sooner), here it is:

Really? You guys are scaring me, I keep hearing stories of exploding computers, etc. here

What happened exactly?
I'm gonna bump your Iron Fist thread and add the missing scan

Click and have a minute or two of patience ...
Simply drawn, but brilliant audio and action choreography.
While it lasts ...

I used to love Samurai Jack.

I have never seen a cartoon that handles sound better than that series. My favorite entries were Episode 7, Episode 6, and Episode 29, in that order. The latter half of Episode 7, Jack versus the 3 blind archers, is THE best treatment of sound I've experienced from an animated production. If you want to introduce someone to the series, THAT is where you start them. Everything unique about the series, the way the environment becomes a third character, the placing of viewer into the protagonist's mind, the slowing down of action so that people can fully appreciate what is happening, speeding up to snap them out of it, everything is contained in those 10 minutes ...
Episode 6? A child's storybook come to life. The Journey through the desert and night camping with Ikra, like something from National Georgraphic, and those all-but-forgotten trips I used to take with my family, and the vicarious ones related by my leisure-time readings.
Quite a shock at the realization of exactly WHO saves Jack from death via quicksand in that episode, too ...

Well, it IS Hulk, man, not some wimp like Clark Kent ...
I made a mistake somehow that I did not catch when typing that entry, though. It is not the Fantastic Four #2, but Fantastic Four #26 that the above appears in. It is the 2nd part of a 2 part story that begins in Fantastic Four #25.
I strongly, strongly recommend getting this story if you are a fan of Silver Age Marvel Comics battles. Hulk versus Thing and the Avengers is the centerpiece of it, and it is hailed as one of the top 10 greatest fights of that era. A must-have for any collector.

Back in the Silver Age, Hulk vs Thing was always a main event: Marvel's (then) two top bricks in bare-knuckle brawling.
A close second was the first time Thor fought Hercules.

Didn't Hulk in one comic throw or carries a train?

Don't rightly know.
Can't imagine that, in his entire history, there ISN'T one, considering how even DC is in the habit of having people who look like Hulk throwing them around:

Trains and SUCH ... Wondy Cargo plane save ...

Kara's response to Equus, arguably one of the most impressive throwing feats by post-Crisis Supergirl ...

... in fact, here's the same scene merely layered and set differently, to show Kara launched that train car all the way from ground into outer space with her shove ...

i was so mad when that subway scene wasn't in the damn game.

The only consolation was that we got Apoc beating up Beast... although that didn't match shit.
Stupid games when they actually used to create new shit just for commercials.

Yeah. iirc Ultimate Alliance didn't have much cgi bar the "Doom ****s everyone up", the intro, the short shot of Galactus, and then some stupid briefing. Oh, and the end sequence.
