A Quarter Century Of Steam: 25 Years Along The High Iron 65 locomotives. Four hours on two DVDs. This program was a quarter-century in the making, featuring footage shot from 1985 to 2010. 65 different locomotives are featured; many that run today and many more that no longer run. Footage is organized by year, running in chronological order beginning in 1985. Narration is kept to a minimum, with titles and graphics presenting basic information and allowing for much faster pacing. Featured locomotives in order of appearance: 1.

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.
