RAILS ALONG THE
ROCKIES COLORADO'S JOINT LINE

COLORADO'S JOINT LINE ... a heritage of the original. Denver & Rio Grande narrow gauge mainline out of Denver and now a bustling railroad where trains of the BURLINGTON NORTHERN... the RIO GRANDE ... and the SANTA FE all share the same track!

Owned by the Rio Grande and the Santa Fe and With the Burlington Northern as a tenant ... Colorado's Joint Line is the setting for a spectacular show featuring trains from all 3 railroads. Trains roar south out of mile-high Denver for the fifty mile run to Palmer Lake at 7,237 feet above sea level. Helpers are cut off at Palmer Lake and the trains continue to Colorado Springs and Pueblo.

Add to this scene a backdrop of the Colorado Rocky Mountains... and in all 4 seasons! You'll experience Joint Line action on the colorful days of Autumn to the blizzards of Winter... then to the warm days of Spring and Summer.

Motive Power on the Joint Line includes C30-7, SQ40,GP39-2, GPbO, GP40- 2 and the SD45. Also see the new OAKWAY EMD SD60's in their blue and white paint scheme. The red "SF merger paint scheme is still in evidence too.

There's never a dull moment in this fast-paced progr~jn photographed by Dave Gross and Bill Brown in broadcast video, live sound and color. Narrated by Rege Cordic. 60 minutes.

This DVD is a great look back at the joint line in the late 80's and early 90's. As you find with WB programs, they are well filmed and give a great glimpse at railroad operations from around 20 years ago. If you are a fan of Santa Fe, Burlington Northern etc then you will definitely find this show interesting and a great addition to your collection. I have no hesitation in recommending this DVD.
