C. Vision Productions presents the Southern Pacific Steam in the 1950's in the San Joaquin Valley of California from the films of Doctor Wayland Paul Matt. Doctor Matt was a railroad doctor for both the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific in Bakersfield California during the 1950's and 60's. This gave him the opportunity to photograph many steam locomotives in the west.

We also visit Tehachapi Loop and great action from the yard in Bakersfield. Also included is the narrow gauge line in the Owens Valley with ex-Nevada California Oregon Baldwin number 18!
