Description

Feast your eyes on the most comprehensive Colorado railroad documentary video DVDs ever.
ATSF BNSF COLORADO
(TT-057) is an entertaining and informative rail documentary tracking every Santa Fe route in Colorado during the last decades of the 20th century. Bonus features include rare footage of the last ATSF trains to Santa Fe, New Mexico during 1991. Historian and retired railroader Steve Patterson recalls the Pueblo-Denver Joint Line's premature downsizing of the early 1970s, with classic scenes along the route. The second hour revisits early BNSF operations, spotlighting former ATSF and BN tracks sold to shortlines after the 1994 merger. The Southwest Chief's bumpy passenger ride across the prairie and over Raton Pass is also explored.
Railroad author and videographer James R. "Jim" Jones' colorful production features vintage ephemera dating to the railroad's arrival, plus first and second generation power, Warbonnet, blue and yellow, Cascade Green and executive schemes, with a plethora of "pumpkins" on the point. This amazing DVD is the perfect companion to COLORADO & SOUTHERN RAILWAY: HERE COMES THE FLOOD, THERE GOES THE TRAIN! (TT-052) and BN GREEN, COLORADO SCENE (TT-056).
