Review of Illinois Central 1990-1991 End of the Paducah Geep Era DVD

This is the fourth title covering The Mainline Of Mid-America in the Heritage Series: "The Illinois Central Railroad - 1990-1991." The first part of the program covers operations on the Edgewood Cutoff (Bluford District) in 1990, and the second part covers the original mainline through Centralia, DuQuoin, Carbondale and Cobden in 1991. During the course of this program, the last of the pre-new image locomotives are either repainted, rebuilt or stricken from the roster. Paducah Geeps were plentiful at the beginning of 1990, but by the end of 1991 they were fast disappearing as SD40-2's from Burlington Northern were coming online as the new 6100 series. Rare power includes a GP26 rebuild of a GM&O GP30, one of only six SD28's constructed and a rare GP35 repainted into the new image black. On top of that we see plenty of Paducah rebuilds in mainline service, including GP8's, GP10's, GP11's and SD20's. Most of these engines would be retired and off the roster soon after th
Overall rating for this DVD?	Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor
The rest is optional but appreciated.
In your opinion, how was the narration level?	There was no narration. Just enough. Could have used more. A little too much. Way too much. Narration can be turned off.
Aside from the content of the DVD, how would you rate the image quality (sharpness, camera steadiness, etc)?	Poor. A little rough around the edges. Good. Excellent!
How would you rate the VALUE of this video?	Overpriced for the amount of enjoyment I got out of it. Seemed a little high, but not too bad. Fair. Good value. Excellent value!
Last question. Would you recommend this DVD to others?	Definitely not! Not unless they REALLY were interested in the subject matter. Yes Definitely. A "Must Have"!
