Pentrex hit the mark with this DVD. Shot in one day it shows every train the passes through Gibbon Junction. Though a few are masked by other trains, the parade of trains across this mid-west hot spot is nearly constant. Outstanding color and sound with less naration than most Pentrex videos.

Gibbon Junction Nebraska.... I have been there 2 times and love the action. This video show 15 hours of daylight with over 70 trains. On screen graphics show the time of day, place of origin & where the final stop is, etc... along with some narration. A great video.
