Summer, vacation time. A time to travel and enjoy the beauty of the land with little concerns of Mother Nature hampering travel plans. So, take advantage of it and see some excellent steam train action.
This video also takes in a wide variety of locations, which includes Railway Productions favorite... the Cumbres and Toltec. There is some very interesting trains in this video. Tennessee Valley is one of the many featured trains along with bits of the museum to be seen. And then there is a train used for actual transportation as commuter service for the State Fair. But the best of them all has to be the operating 'wood burner', the Eureka and Palisades #4. What a magnificent piece of history to see as the little engine chugs along the line on the Durango and Silverton in Colorado. From the little masterpieces of #4, to the giants of Norfolk & Western #611, we are treated to an excellent display of Steam action. This is a video that all will enjoy for years to come. It is a "must have".
