I have some BCRail programs and I didn't have doubt to buy another one when I saw this preview: it's the BEST BC RAIL DVD! - This program covers the BCRail mainline and branches lines, and of course, with focus the most recognized landmarks of these lines... This place with all its nature, looks like to me as a synonym of the "Heaven's Paradise" showered with GE's locomotive music! (don't worry: you will see a few SD 40 too). - Maybe the correct words to describe this program are: delightful, fantastic, exciting and indescribable! - DON'T MISS IT: TAKE YOU COPY RIGHT NOW!

This is a fantastic DVD of a railroad now long gone. The program was nicely composed and shot with well thought out camera angles showing both the trains and spectacular scenery of British Columbia. The cab footage was a nice bonus. Whether you are a BC Rail fan or just like to watch heavy trains roll through a beautiful mountain setting, this DVD is for you!
