Review of Baltimore & Ohio In Transition 1955 to 1957 Akron, Ohio DVD

Whatever it takes! In the steam to diesel transition era you never knew what come down the line. It could be steam, it could be a shiny new diesel and sometimes it was a steam and diesel pulling together. If you needed horsepower, the command was "Mix 'em up!" Horsepower was the main thing - just get the tonnage over the road!. But for the railfan observer, B&O's mixed bag of external and internal combustion power made for a full show, for the B&O was in transition. In short order diesels took over completely. Here we get to see the B&0 in the late transition years between 1955 and 1957. Rare film takes us back to a mainline ruled by steam...and then to mixed power and finally all diesels. Much of the action takes place on the B&O in and around Akron, Ohio.
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"!
