Great American Steam Locomotives: Articulateds DVD
Articulateds capture the heart and minds of anyone who comes out to see them.
Is the Trains DVD available in HD and UHD?
This is where UP City of St Louis started running on Overland Route. Came up from Denver, and bypassed Cheyenne. I remember the depot with a stagecoach by it, on one of my trips we had breakfast in diner with a guy getting off there to work at dude ranch for summer.
I am in several of the shots. Best one is when he gets the close-up in the cab, I am the guy in the red flannel shirt and official 4014 olive-drab cap at right in the shot. Yeah, just the back of my head, but hey – it’s good enough for the grandkids back home!HahA! Check out my POV video of this arrival on the official UP Steam Club on Facebook, it is found as “GT’s Post #3” and “…3a”, it has a great video shot of the Big Boy and the intermodal arriving together, a head-on shot at eye-level with Ed and the gang in the cab, as he pulls to a full stop right next to me. Talk about picking a great spot to stand, couldn’t have done better if I’d pre-arranged it with Ed that morning.
It seems they are greasing the rods in almost every vidio. (you can hear the gun packing in grease)
Is this normal or is there a problem they are dealing with?
To Jeff Butler & Terry: you need to update your Firefox to dispel the Trains Blockage like I was just forced to do for the same reason
When the folks in Laramie find out that they could have stood right next to the entire train up the road in Medicine Bow (no fences) they will be disappointed.
I liked the intermodal sounding the horn coming up along the other track.
OK..how are we suppose to see this video with the Trains Banner blocking the screen?
Your trains banner is blocking the entire video. I know who you are………….
Great video, well done!
