MISSISSIPPI RIVER MAIN LINE Canadian Pacific's main line along the Mississippi River through Minnesota from Saint Paul to Chicago runs through some of the Midwest's finest scenery. In addition to a variety of CP trains, the River Sub hosts Amtrak's Empire Builder and BNSF coal trains, and the Iowa, Chicago and Eastern has trackage rights. Soo Line power still heads some trains on this former Milwaukee/Soo main line. Exciting action, with a wide variety of power and paint schemes!

The east slope of the hill was double tracked in 1995, the west side is currently being double tracked, but there is still the single track over the Cimarron River. Curtis Hill is also the location of the longest continuous curve on the former Santa Fe between Chicago & LA. Loads of action, with fleeted trains, lots of different power. Taped in May, 2004. 90 minutes CURT $29.95 Quantity:     Format: DVD     WINTER ON THE WISCONSIN CENTRAL Winter action on the Wisconsin Central in January, 1999. We visited a couple of hot-spots, Junction City and Byron Hill for all the action. Lots has changed since our visit in 1996, welded rail is now in place, train speeds are higher and CN has trackage rights. WC, CN, CP, NS, CSX and Conrail in fair weather and foul, everything from bright sunny and frigid days to heavy snow, and raw ugly rain. 60 minutes WWIS $24.95 Quantity:     Format: DVD     WISCONSIN CENTRAL One of our favorite locomotive types is the SD45 and it's variants, so since WC has lots of SD45's and some F45's, it seemed like a natural to shoot. WC was very nice to us, we got tours of the dispatchers office and shops at Stevens Point, and a tour of the shops at Fond du Lac. We caught a GP3O and SDL39 on Byron Hill, a taconite train on the hill with 2 SP AC's and 2 WC units, DM&IR SD9's, UP run through trains, lots of SD45's, some SD24's and an SD35, F45's and boy d0 they look good in WC paint, and a Saturn getting nailed by the local in Black Creek. Our best selling tape ever! TWO HOURS HBWC $35.95 Quantity:     Format: DVD
