Review of Laurentian to Adirondack DVD

The saga has more twists and turns than the track high above Lake Champlain. A hint of the steam era leads to Alco RS2s and the famous PAs through the 1960s until service ended April 30, 1971. Ride the Amtrak / D&H "Adirondack" inaugural special, August 4, 1974. We then follow her four decade career: Turbos, Heritage coaches, Full domes and more. Ride a private car open platform as a crimson sunset envelopes the lake. Also seen are VIA RAIL cars during 2012, and a few special trains and sidebar items. Welcome to this appreciation of one of America's most scenic day trains!
