Review of Mexican Trilogy - Chihuahua Pacific - Sonora-Baja California Railway DVD 3 Disc

 5 of 5 (1)

Mountains, Desert, Trains & History See the Chihuahua Railway, Southern Pacific of Mexico and Sonora-Baja California Railway! We'll explore the CH-P from 10,000 foot Drake Tunnel to the Pacific port of Topolobampo. The Lasso, The Slab, The Pear (El Lazo, La Laja; La Pera - a loop, high bridge and tunnel) are a few landmarks on this remarkable journey. Oh, and how about Barranca del Cobre, the Copper Canyon? Despite the sale to Mexico in 1951, certain Southern Pacific operating practices are yet faithfully observed at century's end. Journey over FCP's line from Sufragio south to Guadalajara, along with several branches, plus NdeM routes to Los Reyes and Manzanillo. See venerable ALCo RS-11 #501 (originally 1501) celebrating her 39th year - in a fresh coat of green paint and yellow trim. We'll partake in the annual "Day of the Railroader" festivities at Tepic and see historic equipment, both still serving and on display. Thrill to the viaducts and blast through 35 tunnels o

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.

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"!
