Product: Canadian Rails: Vintage Scrapbook
Visit Canada from 1939 to 1973 from New Brunswick to Vancouver Island. We bring lots of steam and the early diesels in both freight and passenger service. Many maps and special diagrams were specially prepared to highlight the features in this video. The film sources are numerous from many of the most famous rail fans that were active from the 1940s through the 1970s. See steam, electric and early diesel action from coast to coast!
In-cab and trackside action brings you great scenery and a nostalgic look of stations and even tracks that disappeared years ago.

From Railfan & Railroad Magazine February 2010
"Here is another in an extensive catalog of must-own vintage videos from
Charles Smiley, who is known for his excellent film transfers of often rare but always high quality movie footage, exquisite maps, and excellent
narration. After concentrating on the roads of the United States we are now treated to a visit to Canada between 1939-1980. Almost everything is very
good to excellent quality, with some being superb. Charles maps are always excellent-very clear and sometimes showing elevation as well as plan views
of unique track layouts. This is a great survey of the classic steam era in Canada with first and second generation diesel, RDC and electrics. Anyone
enamored with classic Canadian Steam power will be eager to view this movie many times. Gain a better appreciation for the vastness of this fine
country, classic locomotives, stations, and grand railroad hotels, and view fantastic scenery."

Railfan Railroad Magazine "this is a great movie for Western Pacific fans. An excellent look at the last twenty years of operation in California and Nevada"
Model Railroad News:
"Northeast Rails Remembered and Mountain Grades of the B&O work to give a broad interpretation of Eastern Railroads. As you watch the older B&O merging with its contemporaries into the CSX. This pair of vides would be a great boon to model railroaders, from operating practices to scenery ideas. Whether you buy them separately or together, history has never been so much fun".
