Historic Southern Pacific and the Greater Bay from Charles Smiley Videos is a fascinating look back to a great era with steam and early diesel trains filmed by the most prominent railfans of the time. Extensive coverage of Northern California and the San Francisco Peninsula to San Jose and Los Gatos in the early 1950s includes many classes of SP steam, diesels and FM Trainmasters pulling commutes. Also shown are Altamont Pass and the greater East Bay area with views you can no longer see today! Niles Canyon and far-away locals at Giant, Albany, Richmond and beautiful places to Crockett! You′ll marvel at scenes of the Northwestern Pacific Railroad freight and passenger trains running with steam and vintage diesels all the way north to Eureka, with emphasis on lineside stations, bridges, tunnels, lumber towns, and a way of life that has vanished forever! The never-before-seen crystal clear Kodak Movie Film has waited up to 70 years for your viewing! Historic Southern Pacific and the Greater Bay DVD is a must-have for any SP or NWP fan, or fans of real railroading who remember or want to see how it really was!
