INT. TRAIN TUNNEL - LONG STRAIGHTWAY

The car with Indy and Marion looks almost sluggish compared to the pursuing Nazi car as they both make their way into an unusually long straightaway. Marion discards her empty submachine gun as Indy kicks at his throttle and casts a worried look back at Shliemann. Shliemann, sensing victory, smiles evilly and carefully takes aim. Indy and Marion will be easy targets until they reach that approaching low cross beam, which is the crest of the rising tunnel.

INT. COMMAND CENTER - CLOSE ON FUEL DRUM

A fuel drum, already pocked by bullets is finally penetrated by high velocity hot lead. It explodes in a ball of flame. And then its neighbor. Then all is exploding flame.

INT. TRAIN TUNNEL - LONG STRAIGHTWAY

Shliemann and his cohorts hear the explosions behind them and look back that way.

Indy kicks the throttle one more time and it goes! Their car doubles its speed and shoots under the low cross beam at the same instant as-- A huge dragon of all-consuming fire shoots up the tunnel behind the Nazis, catches their car and incinerates Shliemann and his men. The tunnel collapses in this section, burying the fried Nazis forever.

INT. TRAIN TUNNEL

Indy and Marion look back at the low cross beam as the last tongue of flame makes it there and then is doused by falling rock and dirt. They look at each other, then turn their attention back to their own predicament. Their mine car is going incredibly fast as it moves into a downward section of wildly twisting tunnel.

MARION

Slow it down!

Indy is already pulling the throttle. It moves easily. Unfortunately, it is no longer attached to the motor. The mine car is out of control.
