This DVD features CSX coal trains on the New River Sub, deep in West Virginia. We start our visit at Hinton, then follow the tracks through Prince, with it’s Art Deco depot, over the mountain to Thurmond, and along the gorge to Montgomery. You’ll see the trains far below from the overlooks, and up close and personal from trackside. We visit the big bridges at Cunard and Hawks Nest, and catch the Gauley shifter with its caboose. UP makes an appearance, together with Amtrak’s Cardinal, a number of lease units and brand new SD70ACe’s. R.J. Corman now operates the Loup Creek branch from Thurmond, and we catch their bright red geeps in the highly scenic valley.

Special features include the ability to turn the narration on and off.

    It’s a toss-up which is better — the spectacular scenery or the hardworking trains. Together, they make this a “must have” program! This is coal country, and the video does a great job showing how long, heavy trains deal with the challenges of tight curves and mountain grades. And there’s something charming and nostalgic about watching the trains roll through the small towns along the route. Videography is outstanding, and reaching some of the camera locations clearly took effort and planning. It’s nice to be able to enjoy it from the comfort of your living room!

    Interesting in a word. Beautiful scenery, and really well noted when high above the railroad from the scenic lookout. Plenty of heavy weight trains pulling loads of coal. The lease units add to the look of the CSX, espescially when the UP enters the picture. Also good that RJ Corman was included in this video. I do think though that my favorite scene was the train approaching in the darkness. Nice film work.

    A lot of good scenery and train action. A must have for any CSX fan,
