 The Impossible Railroad
|
| Producer: |
The Impossible Railroad chronicles the 13-year struggle of the San Diego & Arizona Railroad construction. Using archival footage and interviews with local historians and train enthusiasts, this one-hour documentary evokes the heart-breaking passion that went into linking San Diego to the rest of the nation. Could San Diego's railroad have come too late to attract big business? Or did the obstacles that plagued its construction help to preserve the character and quality of life in our city? Filmed on location along the actual San Diego & Arizona Railroad line, The Impossible Railroad captures San Diego's spectacular backcountry and gives new life to Spreckels' dream by connecting San Diegans with a critical period in the city's development.

One of the best video collections of the old steam engines. The 10 subtitled tapes have actual (sharp 16mm filmed) footage of the great steamers when they thundered down the tracks in a by gone era. Besides the outstanding video, the narration is very informative with historical anecdotes. If you buy one set of videos concerning steam engines, this is the one to purchase!
