BC Rail Cab Ride - From Sea to Sky (VHS video)

Climb aboard one of BC Rail's brutish C40-8 diesels for a fantastic cab ride from sea level at Squamish up through the rugged coastal mountain range to the big sky country at Lillooet. You'll see the line from the crew's vantage points and witness the challenge of operating trains over this awesome stretch of railroad. The gorgeous British Columbia scenes enrich the footage taken from the cab.

Venerable Budd cars, the icons of BC Rail's passenger operation, are exquisitely highlighted as they work up the line. The last Alco powered RS-18 is captured as it switches cars at Squamish. Helper service is shown in detail as we ride an assisted freight up steep mountain grades. Rebuilt Cat-powered diesels are seen toiling at the large yard in North Vancouver. The school train provides a unique form of transportation for children to and from class. Even more action is waiting to be enjoyed in this insightful look at BC Rail operations. Hop on board for the ride of your life as we travel from sea to sky on BC Rail!
