Durango, Colorado was buried under 36 inches of snow following several storms that had passed through the San Juan Mountains, the week of January 17, 2010. The railroad was snowed in. Cuts north
of Rockwood were filled with snow, and a number of snow slides had run between Rockwood and Cascade Canyon. Machines of Iron was there to show you how the flanger train and the maintenance of way crews and their equipment handled the snow.

Excellent films of two British Steam Railways. The North Yorkshire Moors could benefit from more scenes away from the station. What we have is a series of trains running in and out of Grossmont-Yorkshire Atmospheric views of British Steam, you could imagine you are there. High pitched whistles very realistic Excellent picture quality

If I needed a reminder why I moved south 30+ years ago, this program did it. I rated the disc as slightly overpriced as it is a DVD-R. That said, the unique subject matter makes it worth having. The power plant footage was quite interesting and I wish there had been more. Definitely something different!

Additional remarks by TRAINMASTER:
Narration: Just enough.
Would kids enjoy this? Maybe.
Image quality: Excellent!
DVD Value: Seemed a little high, but not too bad.
Recommend to others? Not unless they REALLY were interested in the subject matter.
