Notes

WP diesels to the early 80s end of operation of the last major railroad built in the west! See the California Zephyr passenger trains, and mainline freights. Remember Oakland street-running, Stockton, Sacramento, the Feather River Canyon, the Nevada Desert and more.

See the California Zephyr passenger trains, freight and many early EMD, ALCO Baldwin and early GE U-boats all over California.

Learn the history of the Beckwourth Pass that was founded by the west’s toughest ‘mountain-man’, James Beckwourth. See how the Western Pacific under the leadership of Jay Gould’s son, George, carved out a niche right under Southern Pacific’s nose! It also took the vision and persistence of Arthur W. Keddie to make things unfold. History and great trains are in this all-vintage video.

Don’t miss the “Final-Four” coverage of Western Pacific’s last operational F-units in Altamont Pass and other locations on the “San Jose-Turn”.

Featuring:

Stockton
San Jose 'Turn'
Oakland Streets
Desert Running
The Canyon
Cal Zephyr
Early Diesels
U-boats
ALCOs
NOTE - The DVD version has an extra 14-minutes of new Sacramento Northern material.
