Cajon Pass in 1987 is a very different place than it is now. In many ways more exciting for railfans, with helpers, cabooses and pre-merger railroads.
These three features, two main films, on the ICTF and West Colton Yard, and the bonus cab ride, give us an insider’s view of the Southern Pacific.
Southern Pacific’s Daylight 4449 has been called the most beautiful steam locomotive in operation, drawing crowds of admirers whenever the colorful, magnificent 4-8-4 runs in excursion service.

Two programs on one disc! Both feature the layout and modeling of Bob Calvert. First we’ll see the layout, then we’ll see the collection and get some detailing tips.
One of the greatest engineering feats in railroading history. This program captures a classic moment. Cabooses were making their final appearances. The SF & SP were counting their chickens before they hatched with the “Kodachrome” merger paint scheme.
