Featuring
Volume I - The East
&
Volume II - The West
Pentrex takes you back to the late 1950s and early 1960s for a close-up look at the waning years of steam locomotives in operation on America"s railroads. The exceptional color footage used for this presentation was captured on 16mm film by noted rail photographer Bruce Ward. Originally released as two separate programs - one focusing on steam railroading in the eastern United States and the other featuring the last of the great steam locomotives serving the western roads - both shows have now been combined on one DVD, bringing you a complete picture of American steam railroading at the end of an era. In this remarkable program, you will be treated to rare images of:
Volume I - The East:- Norfolk & Western: class J"s in passenger service; class Ks, As, and Ys in freight service.
- Baltimore & Ohio: class S-1 2-10-2s switching and in mainline d
