One of our best selling programs of all time! Watch detailed, narrated coverage of the rebuilding of a huge, modern steam locomotive to mainline standards.
Here's a fascinating 2-hour look at one of the most interesting mechanical procedures in the history of the industrial age...the complete rebuilding of a huge railroad steam locomotive. Over a period of 18 months, Goodheart cameras looked on as the 261 crew painstakingly restored this beautiful locomotive for passenger excursion service. The story - most of it told by the workers themselves - not only describes the overhaul, but also explains how a steam locomotive works.

One of Goodheart's Longest Videotapes ever made Chronicles the hard work of Men & Volunteers to get the excellent looking Northern back to Operation. An inside tour of 261's boiler is included as well as trying to Squeeze through the really small Firebox Door. Not only the Long Restoration is interesting, but it'll teach railfans on where the part goes on the engine and how does it work.

Additional remarks by Steamboy:
Narration: Just enough.
Would kids enjoy this? Maybe.
Image quality: Good.
DVD Value: Overpriced for the amount of enjoyment I got out of it.
Recommend to others? Yes.
