America at war. U.S. soldiers operate railroad in Iran to speed war goods to Russia. An American soldier operates a 100-ton crane that unloads lend-lease supplies from U.S. ships at a Persian Gulf Port. The supplies are reloaded on freight cars for the 600-mile run to Teheran, capital of Iran, on the railroad operated by the U.S. Army to carry war goods destined for Russia. Tons of vital supplies are transported every month over the railroad.
