Six Motor Alcos on DVD by Rail Innovations

We've combined two of our most popular programs to bring you 90 minutes of fast moving, mainline Big Alco action.

During their final years of CP service, we captured the 4500's and 4700's working container trains and general freight between Montreal and Detroit. Once again, we got behind the scenes, aboard the trains and with the people that worked the Big Alcos on CP. Next, we take you to Nova Scotia where spectacular east coast scenery, combined with hard working 6 motor Alcos hauling 100 car trains make a sight few can ever forget. The sounds, and the drama are all captured from both trackside and aboard the CB&CNS locomotives.

We watch trains. Some people enjoy GE's, while other's enjoy EMD's. But there nothing quite like the Alco's. Every rail fan seems to enjoy seeing an Alco. The sound alone is captivating. Canadian Pacific Railways was one of the last mainline railroads to say farewell to these magestic giants. Rail Innovations presents this exciting program of the CPR and their Alco's. See the workings in Montreal Quebec around the yards and to the Montreal Wharf, Then on for a quick trip aross Southern Ontario with stops near Winchester, and in Smiths Falls, and Port Hope Ontario then on to Toronto, Woodstock, Thamseford and Windsor, with a stop in Detriot Michigan. Footage is both from the cab and the ground. There is plenty of open farm land, followed by bush and lakes, then after the city back to the farm land. A fine tribute to the last days of mainline Alco's. Then it's on to Nova Scotia and Shortline action on the Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia Railroad. The Alco's live on, working up grades through this picturest country side, pulling loads of coal and general merchandize. Watch as the trains weave around lakes and Atantic inlets, over bridges and on from Sidney N.S. to the change point with the CNR at Truro N.S. Like the 1st part, see views from the cab, and from the ground. There is no video quite like Six Motor Alcos. Rail Innovations has done a fine job bringing us this excellent video production. Well Done.
