To a degree, another true to style Charles Smiley movie.
The title: WP the Last Decade made me assume that the majority of the movie would be on the final years, but instead, the major amount is on the years leading up to the Last Decade. The History of the line is well presented, along with maps and the wide variety of power, along with scenes from other railroad companies. There are photo's and filmage of Steam engines, and there is a fair amount of narration on the few F7's that remained to the end.
Although there were 3 states that the WP was mainly in, much of the movie centers in California. Some interesting scenery is shown which includes some fishermen enjoying themselves.
The final 14 minutes are dedicated to the Sacramento Northern Railway, and is shot in black and white, which adds to the historical side of the movie. And the Electrics make a good appearance.
Over all, a fine presentation. Not my favorite movie by Charles Smiley, but not disappointed that I purchased this movie.
