Dim lights

This 1950 to 1978 feature brings the long-vanished SP visions out west. Cab-Forwards, early F-units and the snows on Donner Pass plus both sides of the beautiful Bay Area are in this video. See Tracy, Shasta, Colton, Sacramento, Tehachapi, Suisun Bay, Altamont Pass, Dunsmuir, Oakland, Berkeley, San Jose and much more. This is an interesting period of freight and passenger steam and early diesel power at its best! Don’t miss the Coast Daylight, San Joaquin Daylight, mail trains and “commutes” behind steam and early diesels. See diesels from the early tiger stripe, Daylight colors, black widow, and finally scarlet & gray. To quote a review in Railfan & Railroad magazine, “Twenty-six photographers contributed to this program which is skillfully edited and narrated. I highly recommend this as a quality program….”.

Railfan & Railroad magazine exclaimes, “Twenty-six photographers contributed to this program which is skillfully edited and narrated. We see
steam power ranging from big Cab Forwards to 4-8-4s and 4-6-2s to small yard and branch power. For diesel fans all paint schemes are
represented(Daylight, Black Widow, gray and scarlet on engines ranging from F's to PA's to Geeps and Alco and Krausse-Maffei diesel hydralics. The
film transfers are first rate, as is the extensive research and narration explaining what is seen on the screen. I highly recommend this as a quality
program that helps explain California's railroading past".

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".
