Enjoy a head end ride on board a train of tank cars on the Indiana Rail Road from Indianapolis to Switz City, Indiana. This is a two part set, and in this volume you’ll ride the train from just south of Fruitdale to Switz City. Video and audio come from several cameras and microphones (no audio from inside the locomotive cab).Enjoy riding through the most scenic section of the Indiana Rail Road, as the train climbs through the hills of southern Indiana. This line has been called the “Hi-Dry” for the many bridges that it crosses. In this program, you’ll cross the 900 foot long Shuffle Creek Viaduct and the half mile long Richland Creek Viaduct, also called the Tulip Trestle.

very interesting video. Lots of different camera action shows great views of what the crew sees. Nice scenery is seen and even though there are no leaves on the trees, it looks good for rail fanning. The video producers do a fine job with an overhead map to explain where they are going at the beginning of the video. Narration is informative and the narrator has knowledge of the railroad and the area it travels through. Well done.
