I found this on Wikipedia about the movie Silver Streak:
Ostensibly set in the United States and on the fictional railroad "AMRoad" (loosely based on Amtrak trains), Silver Streak is actually shot primarily in Canada. All exterior train shots were filmed on the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) in Alberta and Toronto after Amtrak reportedly backed out of the project due to disapproval of the scenes in which Caldwell accidentally bursts into Burns' bedroom while she is dressing, and the film's ending with the out-of-control train crashing through the terminal wall in Chicago.
Scenes of Midwestern U.S. landscapes appear behind train layouts and many action shots (as the protagonist and allies battle the villains on and off the train, and get thrown off or jump on and off the moving trains) to add narrative integrity to the fictional location. Most of the interior station scenes are of Toronto's Union Station, except for a brief sequence immediately prior to the crash where the train is rapidly approaching a bumper at the end of the line. The brief sequence was filmed from a Hi-Rail truck, entering the Chicago and North Western Railway's downtown terminal.
The train set was so lightly disguised as the fictional "AMRoad" that the locomotives and cars still carried their original names and numbers, along with the easily-identifiable CPR red-striped paint scheme. At the start of the climactic shoot-out, an obtrusive CPR GM switcher is seen calmly moving cars in the background. Most of the cars are still in revenue service on VIA Rail Canada. CP 4070, the lead locomotive, is in Qubec, but the second unit, CP 4067, has been scrapped.
