Our latest DVD - "The Trains of Northern New England 2018" is now ready to ship..
The release of our new program - Trains of Northern New England 2018 is a month late. I was gone the whole month of May videotaping trains in the Pacific Northwest and western Canada, visiting grandkids in Illinois, and riding the Rocky Mountaineer with my wife from Banff to Vancouver. If you can afford this ride it is one of the most incredible train rides in the world. And the aptly named Mountain sub which is part of the trip is the most difficult crew district for freight trains to operate on this continent in my opinion. I was also behind due to spending two weeks in Illinois watching the Stockton, Illinois girls basketball team win the regional and sectional tournaments. They went on to finish second out of nearly 280 schools in their class in the state tournament – the furthest the Stockton girls had ever gone. One of our sixteen grandkids was on that team. I wouldn’t have missed that for anything. New this month is “The Trains of Northern New England 2018” – our first visit to this part of the country since 2009. These is our 37th program to be released in both Blu-ray and in regular DVD. You need to specify what type of DVD you are ordering with programs available in both DVD and Blu-ray. All of our DVD’s have chapters and menus and nearly half – everything videotaped from 2004 on plus a few programs from 2003 - have a choice of being watched with narration and without narration by using the menu or audio and language buttons on your DVD player controller. 309 programs are available in DVD (37 in Blu-ray) and all are listed in the flyers. No other train video producer shows and explains railroading like we do and our catalogue includes programs on fallen flags ATSF, SP, Wisconsin Central, and Conrail. Our shipping and handling charge on repeat orders remains $5.00 with no charge on orders over $100. We offer year-round discounts on large orders. See flyers for details.

Our programs show the whole train
- Most programs show all trains for 24 hours or more
- Train symbols, origins, history, and operations covered in narration
- No train video producer does a better job of explaining railroading than we do
- Our programs are truly documentaries of railroading
- Years 1992 to present
Our mission is to document the incredible changes going on in today's railroading. Our programs are aimed at customers interested in operations and fans and modelers that want to know what is truly going on in railroading and to see the whole train. We are the only train video producer who makes every effort to identify and show complete trains. Expert commentary tells about the changes in operations over the years, schedules, and what a particular train is carrying and where it is going. Most of our DVDs and videos show 24 hours of action on a particular line or at a given point. These programs give a 24 hour "look" at today's railroading that is unprecedented in the train video industry and will become more valuable as time goes on. Our programs are documentaries that cover contemporary railroading from 1992 to the present and were shot in locations all over the United States and Canada. These DVDs and videos are not simply a collection of runbys of locomotives and a few head end cars taken at different places. We are recording history! That is why original slogan was "No More Mindless Runbys."
