The action on this DVD is a result of many railfan trips by noted rail photographer Emery Gulash, although none of the trips were devoted exclusively to the Santa Fe railroad. Emery captured enough 16mm color film to produce an incredible chronology of the Santa Fe covering a period of almost 30 years! From 1952 until 1980, Emery shot the Santa Fe from Chicago to the west. This DVD set displays the Santa Fe FT freight units, the PA passenger power, and a variety of switchers and road trains. The ‘Warbonnet’ paint scheme and the change to the Santa Fe blue scheme is also covered in this chronology. There are a great number of incredible shots of the famous passenger fleet, interspersed with freights over a vast portion of the line.
