These amazing scenes were filmed between 1989 and 2003 during a series of tours by Bill Alborough of England. Rail action includes modern electrics, which dominate over 80% of the network, along with streetcars, narrow gauge steam and diesel locomotives of various types and eras.
GM&O action between 1960 and 1965 includes the Kansas City Bloomington Motor Car; FAs at Corinth, MS; the only E8 and F7A on the roster; and mail pick up at 80 per in Virden, IL.
