Freight West 1970s-1980s DVD from Charles Smiley Videos is a fascinating look back Santa Fe, SP, WP and the old version of the UP. This DVD brings it back with beautiful scenery, old smoking diesel power and colorful, graffiti-free freight cars in the 1970s and 1980s! This video makes the case for watching freight car traffic-patterns and loads to better understand how railroads worked before all the mergers of the 1990′s. Watching these trains makes us realize the things railfans once took for granted complete with great freight car views and much more! Model railroaders will also value these views to create trains with a credible mix of cars from other lines. Freight West 1970s-1980s DVD is a must-have for any western U.S. railroad fan, or fans of real railroading who remember or want to see how it really was!
