Review of Baltimore & Ohio In Twilight Over Sand Patch DVD

The Baltimore and Ohio steam locmotives were running out their final years in the early '50's. Ed Birch visited the Cumberland, MD, area several times to document these engines. He filmed in the Narrows, at Ellerslie, Hyndman, Fairhope, Manilla, Keystone and Salisbury. The star of the show is the EM-1 "Yellowstone" but the class S 2-10-2 was prominent in pusher service. Diesels from EMD, ALCo and Baldwin were starting to appear. One hour and 25 Minutes, color, sound, maps and narration.

Overall rating for this DVD? 5 Star Excellent
4 Star Very Good
3 Star Good
2 Star Fair
1 Star Poor

The rest is optional but appreciated.

Aside from the content of the DVD, how would you rate the image quality (sharpness, camera steadiness, etc)? Poor.

How would you rate the VALUE of this video? Overpriced for the amount of enjoyment I got out of it.
