The focus of the production was clearly on the trains.
I would have preferred a production that focused on the scenery along the route.
Additional remarks by Bob P: Narration:Just enough. Would kids enjoy this?Maybe. Image quality:Excellent! DVD Value::Fair. Recommend to others?Not unless they REALLY were interested in the subject matter.

Agree with prior reviewer that this was focused on trains. Nevertheless there is beautiful scenery too. About half the trains were passenger trains including several shots of each, Rocky Mountaineer; Skeena; Canadian. I know passenger trains don't suit all but nevertheless an enjoyable Blu-Ray.
