Here is one of the dumbest shows around! A look back at Steam in New England. Boston and Maine, Grand Trunk, New Haven, Central Vermont are present. Films from the 1940s into the early 1950s per the advertised. Music Soundtrack Only.
A single DVD-R. Full 4×3 aspect ratio. Color plus black and white films. Music only soundtrack.
No chapter menu. No information on the scenes. NO NARRATION!!
To the Trains… 👉
This review shall be brief. Begins with The Grand Trunk Railway. No locations or train information is given.
Central Vermont. ZERO INFORMATION.
Boston and Maine has a large amount in black and white. After too long a time, it displays color film. Long and silent reel collection. Old-time music. This appears to be mostly Boston Passenger Station.
B&M runs long. Maybe half the show. Here is a random color scene.
New Haven is as dumb as the rest. Zero information. Under ten minutes.
New Haven has a variety of steam and early diesel. Heavy concentration on passenger service.
Vignettes of New England Steam
Warning: Read carefully on the advertised description. If it only states music/ audio. Avoid!
This release is a loser. Never would have purchased had it clearly stated as no narration. Old films with no information given while watching. Pathetic show.
The Silent Movie era went out 100 years ago. Lazy production. Waste of money.
Rating: Not Recommended
