My son picked out a neat, tin boxed, 5 DVD set at Costco this weekend called Railway Journeys: The Vanishing Age Of Steam. For $13.99 I decided we couldn't go wrong. This set is a steal for the steam preservation fan. Segments include a lot of early 1960's rarities including CN #47 on the Claremont & Concord, #89 on the GMRC, early southern operations, #1278 on the CNJ and the B&M, #759 and #2101 out an about. #90 on the CNJ. Late LS&I and D&NE shots... Great stuff! The clips that are not early preservation focus on the 40's and 50's with a lot of preserved locos seen running and some really cool fantrips. CNJ, O&W, B&O, RDG, PRR and NYC steam figure in the discs I have watched so far. Warning: watch it, do not listen to it. The script is the worst I have ever heard on a railroad video. The reader SOUNDS good, but his content is worthless. Unless you like to see #2101 called a CN Northern, or Missouri called Ohio, or Pennsylvania called New Jersey. Many, many place names are absurdly wrong. But, I know of no other place to see this much steam, and early preservation era steam, for so cheap. Grab it! Rob |
