This is an unusually nice production with plenty of time compression and location variation all over the west and southwest, a fine narration and Blu-Ray, too. Some scenes are in wide open spaces for interesting perspectives and they captured the 844 at speed and then some. It was good to see a mainline engine really stepping out as it was built to do.
