A Day Along the Triple Track Main

The third volume on our popular Sunrise/Sunset series takes you to the busy triple-track mainline at Cincinnati, Ohio, where 12 routes radiating in and out of town are squeezed through a funnel called Winton Place. Here CSX, Norfolk Southern, Indiana & Ohio, and Amtrak trains compete for signals and switches, three-way meets are a regular occurrence, and directional running puts trains on competitors' rails to ease the congestion!

Pentrex set up in the pre-dawn hours of June 28, 2000 to capture 15 hours worth of action from sunrise to sunset. Among the many interesting moves that came our way were a CSX special passenger train, steel and coal trains, the Juice Train, Triple Crown trains, and a working Loram Rail Grinder. We recorded 58 trains, many with a fascinating array of motive power. CSX presented an incredible variety of diesels, with numerous units on lease, and post-merger Conrail power was in use on both CSX and NS.

Train symbols and numbers are given for all movements showing where freights originated and where they're headed. Plus, a schematic drawing and explanation of the signal system shows just how this busy junction is operated. If variety is what you want in your railroad entertainment, this show will exceed your expectations!

If only freight train dvds produced here in the UK had this much information in them they would be much more interesting. The fact that all the types of power are mentioned, places of origin and destinations mentioned both in the excellent commentary and with train id's displayed as train is passing together with what route the signalling is indicating. A Great dvd.

sunrise to sunset vol.3 spends a along the triple track main line at Cincinnati ohio this is the only one of the series I own (it was on a special sale) originally I had wanted the fourth one (a day at Fullerton ca) but it was out of stock so I bought this one and it was worth every penny the action is done by csx Norfolk southern Amtrak and the Indiana & ohio railroad I don't want to spoil the whole program there's lots of surprises in this pentrex recorded 57 moves when this was made it's worth the price trust me

Cincinnati Ohio.... not a location many rail fans consider a great location for rail fanning, so Pentrex shows us that it indeed is great. Triple track action with meets and races are seen. Shot from different angles adds to the variety of action. A late Amtrak breaks up the freight trains seen. Screen graphics tell the time of day, destination & origin. etc... and some decent narration. Great production.
