Midwest Regionals 1997

This videotape shows the trains and operations on five regional railroads in the Midwest in the fall of 1997. This tape is a last look at the Chicago, Central, & Pacific which was recently reacquired by the IC, and a 1st look at the five month old I&M Rail Link.  We caught quite a few trains on the other 3 Midwest regionals - the Toledo, Peoria, and Western, Iowa Interstate, and Dakota, Minnesota, and Eastern.  There were many 1st generation units on these railroads including two Alcos.  132 minutes.
