Cab Ride from Kansas City to Chicago, Part # 2. If You have seen Part # 1, this was an improvement. Continuing on from Part # 1, the camera remains mounted on the front, and most talk is the engine crew with very limited narration. With the sun higher, the lighting is better than Part # 1, but the landscape is boring in it's dull winter brown colour. The most interesting part of the video is the train meets. Listening to the crew chat, we do learn about the line, but it's not the same as actual narration. There is the odd scene graphic giving a location. To purchase this video, You need to be an enjoyer of cab rides. Other wise you may find it rather boring.
