Filmed entirely in High Definition, this DVD continues where Volume 1 left off - this time chronicling the 2010 excursion season. In addition to our usual exhilarating trackside footage, this program also features in-cab footage from multiple cameras on one of the October fall foliage excursions.
Also included is the finale to the 2010 NRHS Convention (held in Scranton, PA), where #425 put on a spectacular show for convention goers. This excursion covered a large portion of the R&N system, with a unique routing from Duryea to Jim Thorpe, and then on to Port Clinton.
As an added bonus, this disc has footage of #425 pulling excursions on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway in Jim Thorpe, PA without any diesel assistance.
The annual United Way Excursion in May is also covered, in addition to all 3 fall foliage trips in October.
This DVD includes:
May 15th - Tunkhannock to Jim Thorpe June 26th - Duryea to Port Clinton (Endless Mountain Rails NRHS Convention trip) September 6th - Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway October 2nd - Duryea to Jim Thorpe October 9th - Port Clinton to Jim Thorpe October 17th - Cab Ride: Port Clinton to Jim Thorpe October 17th - Jim Thorpe to Port Clinton Once again, great stack talk, a variety of different whistles, and beautiful scenery make this DVD a must have for any fan of steam railroading.
There is no distracting music or narration on this DVD; just well-filmed and well-edited clips of one the loudest and hardest working steam locomotives today.

Another quality video from Steam Train Videos - another very good video featuring footage from #425 on some remarkable trips - the NRHS Convention trip was definitely a fun one to experience first-hand. And until earlier this year, this was the closest I thought I'd get to a cab ride in the locomotive - which provides some great sound and video action from inside the cab. Definitely one to enjoy!
