In Search Of the Fs DVD 3 of 5 (1)
EMD F units - THE classic American locomotive. We searched out some of the last remaining F's in 1992. We start the program with BAR's beautiful F3 in excursion service, MBTA F10's in their last year of service then in Cape Cod's pretty orange and green, MARC F's and an E and CSX F's in Baltimore. Long Island has ex F unit "power packs," PATRAIN on the last day of service then as Shore Line in New Haven paint. Both Amtrak and Metro North unique double powered FL9's along the Hudson, GO's control cars, VIA and Montreal commuter F's all make an appearance.

F Units were once the mainstay on the rails. Today, all that remains are a few in shortline, regional & maybe a few on commuter & tourist action. The idea of a video on these old slick units is great, but the quality of this video could have been much better. But then.... take into account when this video was made, cameras were not quite the same as they are today. While somewhat disappointed, I am pleased to see what I did.
Additional remarks by rrvideoman: Narration: Could have used more. Would kids enjoy this? I doubt it. Image quality: A little rough around the edges. DVD Value: Good Value Recommend to others? Yes.
