After seeing the previews on this DVD I was really looking to get a copy of it and I'm glad I did, simply put this is one awesome DVD. Photography is crisp clear and all around fantastic narration is both interesting and informative and did I mention the photography is excellent O' yes I did. It was filmed in 1997 just a year after the UP/SP and D&RGW merger there's a nice assortment of merger lash ups to be seen with lots of SP and D&RGW power mixed with UP and CNW power. UP's newest power at that time the SD90/43Mac's and AC400's are clean I mean clean like even the snow plows are glossy gray. This DVD brings back some good memories from the late 1990s and you'll enjoy watching these trains again.

This 1997 Video Produced by 2 "America By Rail" Photographers, Greg Scholl & Les Jarrett, Features lots of Freight action on the final days of mainline freights with Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, & Rio Grande. Today The Tennessee Pass Mainline is gone forever, but the Canon City line is still operational as a tourist line With Preserved Rio Grande F-units. One Thing that I wish to improve the video itself, is that we need more of Michael Lynch's Music. It's Beautiful, its good, and its a somewhat basic America By Rail Format. |
