Review of Alcos on the Green Bay & Western DVD

 5 of 5 (1)
The Green Bay & Western Railroad powers their trains with Alco Locomotives. This program takes a system wide look at the GB&W's exciting freight and yard action from East Winona to Green Bay, Wisconsin. Climb on board and take a cab ride on roadswitcher number 306. Also ride on transfer caboose number 101. See the GB&W's Norwood Yard, shops, engine house and turntable in action. Plus the Green Bay and Western's connecting railroads are covered with the Burlington Northern, Chicago & Northwestern, Wisconsin Central, Escanaba & Lake Superior and the Fox River Valley. The Green Bay Route lives on as it was shot in all four seasons from 1989 to 1991.

Filmed in all four seasons from the camera of Bradley A. Plets.
RUNNING TIME APPROXIMATELY 100 MINUTES
