Video Rails produced more Classic Collector's Series videos, and these are very enjoyable. The first one documents Southern Pacific's operations in San Francisco and points along Donner Pass between 1936 and 1941. This is excellent vintage footage. I have enjoyed this one very much, especially the rare scenes of the "City of San Francisco" in its earlier years. The second section views SP's steam locomotives during the late 1950's. These old scenes will never be repeated. Again, I have enjoyed this video as well. The third one shows SP's Coast Line with steam and early diesels. This is Southern California before its rapid urbanization. I also like this video. I definitely recommend this collection to those interested in SP and/or steam locomotives.

This was my first SP steam/early diesel video purchase and I must say I loved it. Not knowing much about what I was watching the narration really helped out. Looking forward to getting my hands on a few more DVDs like this one.

With Mike Berger�s beautiful narration, this 3 in 1 combo features great action with a mix of steam and diesel powered trains in the west. If you�re wondering where they come from, here�s the revealed years: the 1941 video was the first volume from 1988, the steam video was volume 3 from 1989, and the coast line was volume 5 in 1991. The theme song was excellent and so too have the engines.
