I happened to be "clicking through" the TV stations tonight and I came across a show on one of our Public Broadcasting stations which might have been named "Quest". I am not sure if it was a new documentary, or an old one that was being shown again to fill air time. The subject of this particular show was Influenza, with a major emphasis on the 1918 influenza, also known as the "Spanish Flu". What first caught my eye was a train that appeared to be triple headed steam, with water cars trailing the tenders. From the few moments it was on the air, I thought it looked like narrow gauge, but that impression may be wrong. There was also a short clip later of a main line train with an engine that could have been a World War One era 4-6-2 leading what looked like wooden passenger cars. Wonder if anyone had seen this, talked about it in the past, or knew anything about the short railroad film segments? Wish I had more info. But thanks for any insights that might be offered. Incidentally, there was a major emphasis on Barre, Vermont and the great number of influenza victims there, but I only saw one still shot of what was probably a quarry steamer.

I did find out that the name of the show is actually "Health Quest" and its apparently been on PBS stations for a few years. One of the 3 hosts is supposedly Olivia Newton-John, but I did not see her on the show I mentioned. I guess my question is, where do shows like this get vintage steam locomotive photos? They obviously don't have them in their archives so must go to someplace for them to showcase a particular show. Thanks for any insight.
