To Save the Road Filming Locations

The vote stands a tie on the railroad bill that will mean ruin to the Western line should it pass the State Legislature. By getting Senator Brown, who is aboard a liner quarantined in the bay, to the Capitol the day will be saved. The road superintendent takes a daring chance and aboard a motorboat succeeds in smuggling the Senator ashore and to a Western special which speeds off towards the Capitol of the neighboring State. The rival corporation wires ahead to the sheriff to stop the train at Lone Point and arrest the Senator for breaking quarantine. Helen foils the plan and the special shoots ahead, but the sheriff and his deputy climb aboard another engine in pursuit. By taking a short cut across the hills in an auto Helen succeeds in getting aboard the Senator's special with an important message telling of the relay special that is waiting for him just across the state line. As they near the line of safety the sheriff overtakes them. With his deputy the officer climbs down on the cowcatcher to jump aboard the Senator's special. Helen conceives a daring plan and quickly puts it into execution. She climbs to the top of the engine cap and jumps to the guide ropes swung across the track, a second later dropping to the cab of the pursuing engine. In another minute she is at the throttle backing the engine up while the sheriff sees his quarry speeding across the state line to safety.
