It's one of the most beautiful areas in the country and also has some of the most exciting railroad action! C. Vision Productions takes you on a tour of the upper Midwest, highlighting several railroads and special movements in "Trains Across the Midwest, Volume 1."
Our cameras travel to Nebraska to capture images of trains sporting Chicago and North Western Power on the Union Pacific's main line. Also, veteran C-30 dash 7 locomotives lead trains over Crawford Hill!
While in Nebraska, we visit short line Nebkota Railway before the line sold its A-B-A set of F-Units to the Canadian Pacific. Then, we see the F-Units with their traditional CP paint scheme as they head up the Royal Canadian Pacific Passenger Train!
After a quick visit to the Dakota and Iowa, we head to Minnesota and Wisconsin to watch action on the Wisconsin Central. Fallen flag Soo Line locomotives then lead trains throughout Minnesota.
Experience railroading in the Midwest! "Trains Across the Midwest, Volume 1" is your guide into the exciting world of train variety and beautiful landscapes.

Nebraska, the Dakota's, Minnesota, Wisconsin, on the old C&NW, WC, and more is where we head for this rail adventure with C-Vision Productions. Crawford Hill makes an appearance, and then the Nebkota Railway with some F7's, before the CPR purchased these engines. See the rails from the cab as cattle run along in front of 10 mph travel, and birds fly along beside the train. Then the same engines in CPR colours as a train makes it's way to Minneapolis. And off to see Wisconsin Central power and SOO Line power.
Basically, this movie is a group of shorten versions of videos that give the viewer a real interesting look at several locations in America's Mid-west. A wide variety of power, mainline action and shortline action, with many fallen flags along the way. A great video that will interest nearly all rail fans. Highly recommended for all to see.
