I have always been a fan of the unique two tone green colors of the N.P. passenger diesels and trains. This video and the other three in this series did not disappoint at all except for one thing. They were a bit short to say the least. This DVD could have used a little more footage but the narration and the sound effects were just right. I have really enjoyed watching what was there over and over again as the trains covered in the DVD The Mainstreeter and North Coast Limited are just memories today. I would have like to have seen more but what is there is really not bad at all. N.P. fans will like this one I`m sure. North Coast Limited: Stampede Pass Rich (Yakima, WA) on 2011-02-02 09:55:36.

This DVD is OK if you are interested in the former NP Railway's passenger service in Washington State. Some good movies, mostly in color, covering the subject. However, the editing could be improved. The movie clips were not arranged in chronological order, jumping from older clips to newer and back to older. The narrator's voice was soft and sometimes a little too dramatic for a documentary film. My copy of the DVD also hesitates/pauses after starting it. Eventually, it will play after a minute or two. Bottom line - the film clips are good, but post production (editing/narration) are weak. |
