Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Home on the Rails is an odd little 1981 animated short film from The Netherlands, directed by Paul Driessen, in collaboration with a painter billed as "The Amazing Mr. Wonderful".It isn't a cartoon about Hobos. No, it's about a married couple who literally have a house on the railroad tracks. Every day, when the clock strikes 12 and they hear the whistle, they have to open two doors to let the train pass. The husband supports the two of them by working as a gold prospector. When he can no longer pan for gold at his favorite site, due to an encroaching railroad, he faces a moment of crisis. | |

Riding into the Sunset | |
| Home On The Rails / int_613ecc2d | comment |
Riding into the Sunset: Or fly into the sunset, as the woman doesn't open the doors, which leads to the train hitting the house, which leads to the house flying off into the sky, the woman alive inside. | |

| Home On The Rails / int_87d7e9fa | comment |
Surreal Humor: The weird cuckoo clock and all the odd things it does. One time the "cuckoo" is a man on the guillotine, who gets his head lopped off. Another time it's a washerwoman, who throws her bucket of water on the floor of the house. | |

Eye Pop: A rabbit always runs into the house for shelter right before the train comes through. His eyes bug out when he comes in one time and finds the man lying on the tracks, about to kill himself. | |
