Review of Central Vermont Railway in Steam Vol 2 - A & R Productions

Our first video about the CV in steam brought cries for "more". We were fortunate to obtain two more film collections with enough steam action for a second volume (we now have the film for a future Vol. III). CV-2 focuses on the CV in Massachusetts and Vermont, particularly on the "700's", the roads big 2-10-4's, New England's largest. The 2-8-0's are the stars, but almost every CV class is represented, from 0-6-0's, 0-8-0's, the passenger mountain-type 4-8-2's and a few Canadian National C-Liner diesels. Highlights include a through freight in Amherst, Massachusetts that had been powered by a brace of C-Liners. One of the growlers broke down and the local freight's consol was called in to bail it out. Running tender forward, the feisty 2-8-0 struggled with all her might, continually slipping, spewing smoke and cinders, at a walking pace, but managing to get the train over the grade! A classic episode of steam railroading at its best! The 2-10-4 "Santa Fe"
Overall rating for this DVD?	Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor
The rest is optional but appreciated.
In your opinion, how was the narration level?	There was no narration. Just enough. Could have used more. A little too much. Way too much. Narration can be turned off.
Aside from the content of the DVD, how would you rate the image quality (sharpness, camera steadiness, etc)?	Poor. A little rough around the edges. Good. Excellent!
How would you rate the VALUE of this video?	Overpriced for the amount of enjoyment I got out of it. Seemed a little high, but not too bad. Fair. Good value. Excellent value!
Last question. Would you recommend this DVD to others?	Definitely not! Not unless they REALLY were interested in the subject matter. Yes Definitely. A "Must Have"!
