In the heart of Western Oregon, a former Southern Pacific main line traverses a long, fertile valley surrounded by the Cascade Mountains and Coast Range. Described in the 1820's as a land of "flowing milk and honey" the Willamette Valley stretches for 150 miles between the cities of Eugene and Portland. The abundant small towns, farms and factories are fastened together by a network of rails feeding an important segment of the I-5 Corridor known as the Brooklyn Sub.

Traffic on the busy main line varies from intermodal and mixed manifest trains to heavy crude oil and grain trains from Canada. A few locals switch industry and pick up interchange traffic from smaller branch lines that connect with the UP. Those railroads include: CORP, Coos Bay Rail Line, Portland & Western, Albany & Eastern, Willamette Valley Railroad and the Oregon Pacific Railroad.

Besides freight, eight Amtrak trains including the Coast Starlight and Cascades Talgos allow travelers to experience the beauty of the Beaver State.

Western Oregon has a lot to offer railfans and you will see why as we tour Union Pacific's Willamette Valley Main Line!

Excellent: I grabbed a Blu-Ray copy of this DVD and the photography is spectacular it even has some scenes taken with a drone that shots in high definition the cover shot is a frame grab from one of the scenes shot with a drone. Graphics, maps and narration is interesting and informative I can tell by Aaron's narrations on all his DVD's that he has excellent skills doing narrations from the years he was behind the mic on the radio .

The action is nonstop with just about every kind of train the UP runs showing up add in Amtrak, Amtrak Talgo run through BNSF grain trains and an assortment of short line and regional roads that interchange with the UP on the Brooklyn Sub and there's somthing for everyone who likes modern main line UP action......A Must Have DVD.

i meant to review this earlier i watched this just before the end of june and i was amazed by this video willamette valley mainline is a fantastic video 7idea productions has done in this video 7idea covers union pacific's brooklyn subdivision in western oregon which is part of the former southern pacific mainline this video covers the brooklyn sub between Eugene and Portland with showing some of the oregon countryside with small towns farms and factories providing some great footage much of the video is on up but there's also footage of other railroads that operate around the state which include the central oregon & pacific the coos bay rail line the portland & western the albany & eastern the willamette valley Railroad and the oregon pacific Railroad which also include a ride on the oregon pacific railroad train rides as well as amtrak appearing which includes the coast starlight and the cascades talgo sets with the talgo sets leaded by the new SC-44 Charger locomotives and a look at max light rail there's a lot more but i'm not going to spoil the entire video i can honestly say this is the best video i've bought from 7idea lots of great railroad action that i didn't know oregon had to offer (it's a nice change cause most of time i hear always seem to hear oregon always seems to have some violents lately but this video gives a different light without having violent stuff in the state) great video that is highly worth the price
