Product Description The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway was one the USAs most beloved railroads until its merger into the BNSF railway. The incredibly varied scenery that it passed through, as well as its sharp-looking locomotive fleet captivated not only railroad enthusiasts, but the general public as well. Come along for the ride as this presentation shows you the Santa Fe from Chicago to Los Angeles. This footage was shot just prior to the merger, and you will see the modern AT&SF just as you remember it, with solid sets of "Warbonnet" locomotives painted in red and silver, as well as those in the older yellow and blue paint scheme. Youll also be treated to a variety of photo locations that showcase the varied and outstanding scenery that the railroad passed through. Some of the places that youll visit include: *Joliet Union Station *Curtis Hill *Abo Canyon *Crozier Canyon *Kingman Canyon *Cajon Pass All this and much, much more as you see the Santa Fe pass through Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California! If you like mainline railroading, then this program is a must for your video library! Approx 1 hour and 45 minutes. DVD includes chapter menu, narration, stereo soundtrack. From the Contributor One of the highlights of my video shooting has been the Santa Fe project. The Santa Fe ran through such an incredible variety of scenery, and this project was a joy because when one followed the Santa Fe, it was always with great anticipation wondering what was around the next curve.
