Travel to old Cape Cod with Pentrex as we look back over ten years of change – from 1999 to 2009 – on the former New Haven Old Colony line. It’s a tourist destination famous for its scenic beauty, but there’s plenty of action for railfans too. We’ll take you trackside to watch the Bay Colony Railroad trash train – a train that turns trash into cash! This train takes trucks off the scenic roads and trash off the Cape as it provides a revenue stream for its operator; we’ll watch as it hauls refuse to a power plant in Rochester.
You’ll also see dinner and brunch trains running on the Cape Cod Central as well as a shipment of huge tracked vehicles from the Otis Military Reservation hauled by newcomer Mass Coastal. There’s a wide variety of motive power for you to enjoy, such as rebuilt Geeps, a re-engined Alco, and a gurgling GE B39. We’ll take a detour to the town of Millis to watch plucky Bay Colony Railroad GP9 #1705 switch the sprawling GAF shingle plant. Then we’ll return to the Cape to see the debut of the Mass Coastal Railroad, featuring a gleaming roster of Geeps and custom-built “energy” cars. It’s a trip to old Cape Cod you won’t want to miss.

This Pentrex production showcases some of the finest excursion scenery in the Eastern United States. This area of Massachusetts is quite a place to operate a rail line, and this DVD will show all you’ve ever wanted to know about it.

Mainline action with some shortlines in a region known for scenic beauty. 2 hours of some of the best railroad action to be seen in the central USA. Personally…. my favorite part is seeing the beautiful old trestles and deep canyons that they cross. Great variety of motive power adds to the railfan experience.

a nice variety of trains in this video. Trash to military to passenger excursion. And great scenery along the way with several different railroads in action. It would be interesting to see in person now having seen it on the video
