    Originally released on VHS only in 1998 & converted to DVD in 2005, this program covers the Fallen Flag named after the Keystone state itself from the films of Mr. Bill Price, Mr. Victor Ketcham, Mr. Karl Walthers, & Mr. Richard Argo which includes an animated map in the beginning.

    Locations include Scioto Tower in Columbus Ohio, Worthington Junction, Attica Junction, which is east of Fostoria, Heath Tower, Johnstown, Horseshoe Curve in Altoona with the Experimental Streamlined Aero-Train on one scene, SF interlocking at the Gallitzin Tunnels with the Aero-Train once again in one scene, Tyrone, Harrisburg, Marysville/Newport, Rockville Viaduct, Baltimore Maryland, Perryville, & on the New York & Long Branch line with the K4s in charge, especially future famous survivor 1361 operating on a commuter train in one scene.

    Other railroads in addition to the Pennsylvania include New York Central, Baltimore & Ohio, Wabash, Santa Fe with 2-10-4s far away from California, Bethlehem Steel, & a couple of Reading T1 class 4-8-4s.

    Some Riding footage from the rear of the train is also featured as well as cargo boats on the water, not to mention a switchmobile, a moving car with knuckle couplers for freight cars.

    One Pennsylvania M1 class 2-8-2 was numbered after a Little River 4-6-2 in Michigan, & an Articulated 2-6-6-2 Tank Engine in South Dakota.

    If you love the P-Company you will love this video. A great variety of trains and locations. I love Clear Block as his videos are put together nicely. Clear Block really did their research on these productions. Its a shame there were not more Clear Block videos.
