The Smother's Brothers were as good as an Abbort and Costello team or Stan Laural and Oliver Hardy.

Love the crazy interaction.

The Fighting Kentuckian - stared John Wayne and Oliver Hardy.

And finally several John Wayne movies were filmed with narrow gauges (SPNG and the Silverton).

John Wayne's The Searchers had a portion fimed near Gunnison which was on the NARROW GAUGE transcontinental (D&RG)
