Santa Fe’s Marceline Sub runs between two storied Santa Fe locations, Argentine Yard at Kansas City and the Mississippi River crossing and yard at Fort Madison, Iowa. In this program we will take a look at that entire 217 mile stretch of Railroad. We’ll see “Q” trains and “T” trains and lots of Warbonnets. Amtrak makes several appearances.
This program is informatively narrated, and many locations and trains are marked with on-screen captions.
This program was shot using good “prosumer” equipment of the time, but is not up to the clarity of today’s high-definition video. It is however an excellent snapshot of an important time and place in the nation’s railroad history.

An legendary stretch of Midwest railroad that will forever be synonymous with the Santa Fe, and the Warbonnets are alive and well! Plains railroading has a beauty all its own, and the video shows off the setting as well as the trains. The narration does a nice job explaining the significance of the line and … as always … Santa Fe’s iconic red and silver Warbonnet paint scheme looks fantastic. And don’t let the disclaimers about the video quality dissuade you; as with other MoKan productions, the historical value of this program more than makes up for any shortcomings you might find.

An excellent production of urban and mainline action . Warbonnet haven as we see so many of these treasures before the BN take-over. I absolutely love the action seen in this video as long heavy freights pound the rails. The high speed intermodals really polish the video to it’s finest.
The quality of the video is not to what we expect today, however….. for the historical significance of the railroad…. it is still very good in my opinion.
