The Cassandra Crossing (1976)

The Cassandra Crossing is a action thriller in 1976 directed by George P. Cosmatos. Passengers on board an international express train are threatened by a deadly and highly contagious virus after an infected terrorist stows away on the train following a failed bomb attack. Fearing a global epidemic, U.S. Colonel Mackenzie (Burt Lancaster) orders the train to be hermetically closed and the train to be redirected to a derelict bridge in Poland known as the Cassandra Crossing. The passengers must fight for their lives against the virus and the authorities who are determined to prevent them from escaping.
