Product Description
"The Train of the Stars" wended its way through Cajon and Raton passes and into American lore. We sample some of the Hollywood connection (Laurel and Hardy demonstrate how not to board a train...) and the motive power changes from the earliest E-Units to FP45s. Go on board the sleepers, diners, lounges and Pleasure Domes. Into AMTRAK, view early consists with thru NY sleepers, arrival of SUPERLINERS in 1980, the mail and express experiment, and sample the on board experience. Also 1960 film: "Better Way for the Santa Fe."
