A lady reporter and two college students search for the "Gold Special," a train that disappeared without a trace.
Universal's 16th sound-era serial (following "The Jungle Mystery" and preceding "Clancy of the Mounted", both starring Tom Tyler) was based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's short story (loosely adapted), and opens with a special train carrying gold bullion from the Golconda Mine, that is stopped by henchmen, working secretly for Sam Slater (J. Frank Glendon), partner of Potter Hood (Francis Ford), in the mine ownership. Laying down portable tracks, the bandits take the train off of the main line, hide it in an abandoned mine shaft, steal the gold, and pick up their make-shift tracks, leaving a mystery in their wake. Potter's son Tom Hood (Frank Albertson), just home from college, determines to solve the mystery with the aid of his pal Bob Collins (football great Ernie Nevers.) They board the gold-shipment special train on its next run. Newspaper reporter Betty Moore (Cecilia Parker)and her friend Kate Bland (Caryl Lincoln)are in a car driving along a road that parallels the train tracks, when Bob is attacked by henchman Dirk (Tom London) and, while fighting, Dirk's revolver goes off, shatters the windsheild of Betty's Car, blinding her and sending her car toward the onrushing train, sending all participants directly into chapter two called "Roaring Death,"...which can be seen at this theatre next week.
Researching the origins of the TV serial "Lost", I bought a DVD transcript from a somewhat deteriorated print of this movie serial, now in the public domain. Fans of "Lost" will recognize several scenes and themes from this movie serial which were not in the original story or its other adaptations, which were recreated either literally or at some degree of abstraction in the TV serial. I laughed out loud at that. However, if you're not interested in how one screen production can cutely allude to others, or looking for clues to the mystery (if you even believe there was a mystery) of "Lost", then this adaptation, the loosest by that name that I've researched so far out of many in various media, of "The Lost Special", will probably not hold much interest for you. It does hold a bit of a mystery (albeit somewhat telegraphed for mystery fans) even for those familiar with the original story, and the plot overall is fairly decent, and some of the acting is excellent. However, it does stretch out the story and scenes as typical of a movie serial, and it has the worst stunt fights I could imagine. I've seen serials with excellent stunt fighting that stands up well even to slow-motion scrutiny, but in "The Lost Special" their blows miss by miles, the sound track represents punches by drumrolls, and they're drawn out to boot. There are also the usual far-fetched plot devices to produce silly cliffhangers.

The gimmick casting of Ernie Nevers as a Princeton U. football player works out about as well or badly as you'd expect. However, the other leads are good. The ending moved me to tears, and not only because of my recognizing its relationship to "Lost", so it's not a total loss from 6 hours of viewing. Chapter titles: (1) The Lost Special; (2) Racing Death; (3) The Red Lantern; (4) Devouring Flames; (5) Lightning Strikes; (6) House of Mystery; (7) The Tank Room Terror; (8) The Fatal Race; (9) Into the Depths; (10) The Jaws of Death; (11) Flaming Forest; (12) Retribution.

SYNOPSIS: Two youths team up with two girls to solve the mystery of a gold train that has completely disappeared en route from the mine to the city terminal.

COMMENT: Being something of a railroad buff, "The Lost Special" was always on my list of must-see serials. True, there's not as much working on the railroad as I would have liked, but the action that is presented is certainly mighty spectacular. For most of the stunts, real trains, not models, are used. The director and film editor cleverly contrive to triple the suspense by rapidly inter- cutting rapid tracking shots of speeding cars and locomotives. Serial specialist MacRae is in his element here. No less than two heart-stopping rail-crossing "accidents" occur, plus a pounding speedboat chase, and numerous pursuits involving what are now "vintage" cars.

True, the dialogue is often silly, with the villain getting the worst lines. "Now get this, men. If there's a blunder, we're due for a long stretch at the Big House!" No wonder Frank Glendon emerges as a colorlessly conventional heavy. It's up to Tom London to lend most of the vigor to the gang, which he does most ably, assisted by Edmund Cobb who does his own stunt work and has a grand moment in Chapter Eleven when he suddenly comes to life at the mention of liquor.

Ernie Nevers also undertakes his own stunts, including a thrilling leap from one speeding auto to another.

Albertson is just okay as the hero, but the girls, Cecilia Parker and Caryl Lincoln are a joy to behold. Miss Parker has at least one nice change of costume too. Francis Ford, of course, plays in a straightforward manner, not in the grizzled characterization we're accustomed to seeing in his brother John Ford's movies.

MacRae saves his best direction for the action spots. There are plenty of them in every episode, and all are powerfully enough handled, given the contemporary use of speeded-up camera effects and the equally unconvincing flurries of flailing fist fights. But those edge-of-the-seat auto and train chases!

Production values are great, almost right to the end. A bit of stock footage is used from time to time, and there's an economy reprise of clips from the introductory episode in Chapter Twelve. More importantly, there's otherwise no decline in the end episodes and all the cliff-hangers are solidly thrilling. Not a weak or impoverished one in the whole eleven!
