After a brief battle with the assailant and a panicked 9-1-1 identify, Kimble is wrongfully arrested for his partner’s murder. He’s set to face the dying penalty — nevertheless whereas he’s being transported on a bus full of inmates, there’s an escape attempt. The driver is killed, the bus crashes and lands on shut by follow tracks, and Kimble makes a daring escape throughout the nick of time as a follow smashes into the bus.
The scene could also be very spectacular, with explosions and follow cars rolling spherical. According to director Andrew Davis, people often ask whether or not or not the follow cars have been precise or fashions. According to a Los Angeles Times piece, the producers of the film used precise follow cars that they needed to buy in North Carolina, because of that that they had requested every railroad agency in 5 states and none wanted to have their trains involved in a crash — even a fictitious one.
The crew then constructed a spur off the tracks to have the ability to create the illusion that the follow was derailing, when in reality it was now merely on a unique rail in a single different course. With cameras prepare in 16 locations, Davis and his crew let the locomotive free down the monitor, creating the spectacular derailment we see throughout the final scale back (this scene alone worth $1.5 million).
