All I can say is WOW. This is why we do what we do.

A wonderful, touching film. . .

I also saw this was here, and I recommend it as well.

Captions are on the same video on YouTube

Don't ask me why it doesn't show as an option on the NatGeo website..

Those who were in attendance at the HRA conference got to see a preview of this in November. This film is one of a series that was commissioned by the railroad as part of their educational mission. The film itself is not a National Geographic production, but is one of a series of independently produced short films that is being highlighted by National Geographic.

Pegasuspinto, thanks for the link from me too. I couldn't figure out how to make the video a "talkie". Would probably not of looked on Youtube for it.

In case others are having that trouble too here it is again.

This and Nevada Northern are my western bucket list places. Thanks for posting this in the first place Rick. Regards, John.

YouTube appears to create close captions using an automatic feature.

I have played YouTube videos with the close caption feature turned on and at times the cc generates a sound-a-like word.
