An incredible resource for railroad and history buffs, Great Trains of America Box Set looks at historic trains and railroads to understand 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 on the two DVDs include passenger train history, the Pacific Railroad Act, commuter train operations, and the controls on Amtrak's EMD 103 super locomotive; train safety and air brake operations, a how-to guide on operating steam and diesel locomotives, and modern freight train operations are also shown. The DVDs' 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
