Description:

An incredible resource for railroad and history buffs, Western Railroading looks at historic trains and railroads such as Colorado's Georgetown Loop, the Grand Canyon Railway, Northern California's Big Trees Narrow-Gauge Railroad, Western California Railroad, and the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad while exploring the emergence of railroads as a binding force in American history. With the help of interviews with historians and railroad experts, legends and folklore are explored as well as the mechanics and maintenance of locomotives. Special segments include train safety and air brake operations, a how-to guide on operating steam and diesel locomotives, and modern freight train operations. The DVD's special features include Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound, digital railroad sound selections that make fun use of Surround Sound, and Internet links. --Erik Macki
