Built in 1923, the Flying Scotsman was the first steam locomotive to run at 100 miles an hour and to star in its own feature film. This is the untold story of the iconic Flying Scotsman-the very best in the engineering of its time.

Indiana, 1818. La luz de la luna cae a través de los densos bosques que rodean una cabaña, donde un niño de nueve años llamado Abraham Lincoln se arrodilla junto a la cama de su madre que sufre. Ella ha sido atacada por algo que los lugareños llaman "Enfermedad de la Leche". Mi niño... susurra antes de morir. Más tarde, el niño se da cuenta de que la enfermedad mortal de su madre era en realidad obra de un vampiro. A partir de ese momento, el niño comienza un diario, y se propone ser un maestro de la mente y el cuerpo, con un sólo objetivo: Emprender un camino de venganza que le llevará a la Casa Blanca.

For nearly 47 years, the Southern Pacific Railroad relied upon its massive AC-type steam locomotives to haul freight and passenger trains throughout California and neighboring states. Built to provide the power and flexibility demanded by the mountainous passes they traversed, these giants were constructed with their cab in front of the boiler, thus earning them the name Cab Forwards. The last Cab Forward revenue train ran in 1956, after which all but one were scrapped. From then on, film coverage of these AC-class engines was eagerly sought, hard to locate, and highly prized. Now, after years of research, Pentrex has assembled an awesome collection of footage and still images of SP AC-1s through AC-12s spanning the years 1927 to 1956.

Sara Sandoval es una bella y altiva aristócrata mexicana que se ha educado en Europa y disfruta de los privilegios de una plácida existencia, sin privaciones de ninguna clase. Al otro extremo del espectro social está María Álvarez. Volcánica y rebelde, ella es la deslumbrante hija de un peón de campo. Ellas provienen de lados opuestos de la escala social y, en circunstancias normales, sus caminos probablemente no se hubiesen cruzado nunca. Pero el destino une a estas dos mujeres cuando una banda de pistoleros a sueldo, que trabajan para unos avariciosos barones del ferrocarril, roba las tierras de sus respectivas familias, atacando y asesinando a sus seres más queridos. Empujadas por la necesidad, María y Sara forman de mala gana una alianza con la intención de hallar cumplida venganza. Al decidir tomar cartas en el asunto, se convierten a su vez en prófugas de la ley y en ladronas de bancos.

In the first half of the 20th century, America's railroads were radically

transformed by the innovation of gargantuan steam locomotives.

Pushed by the need to haul ever longer and heavier trains, the nation's

locomotive works responded with the invention of awe-inspiring articulated

engines. Delivering up to 7,500 horsepower, these steel behemoths could

haul mile-long, 15,000-ton trains. In this riveting program, journey back to the

golden age of steam for an up-close look at these legendary locomotives. See

the Union Pacific's famed "Big Boy" in action and ride the rails of the

Chesapeake & Ohio and Norfolk & Western railways. Meet the men who

drove engines like the Allegheny and Yellowstone, and visit the museums

and yards where the largest steamers ever built remain preserved in time.

In August of 2002, former Santa Fe steam locomotive 3751 returned to the rails for a thrilling excursion from Los Angeles to Williams, Arizona and return in honor of the NRHS 2002 National Convention. Leaving Los Angeles, the mighty 4-8-4 battled the grades of Cajon Pass before setting out across the desert to Needles, thrilling spectators with her awesome displays of steam power. The following day, the 3751 completed the trip to Williams where she prepared to head up the Grand Canyon Limited excursion. This highlight of the Convention featured the 3751 running on the Grand Canyon Railway, doubleheading and tripleheading with GCRy's own steam power! The scenic splendor of South Rim vistas framing nostalgic images of doubleheaded and tripleheaded steam on the rails - it's an incredible sight that can't be beat!

The Union Pacific Railroad produced its classic documentary film Last of the Giants in 1959 as a fitting tribute to the world's largest steam locomotives-the Big Boys. UP cameramen filmed the Big Boys over a three-year period, which Pentrex re-released in 1992. It ran for a total of just 23 minutes, leaving hours of unused footage that was set aside for many years.

"Rail" captures British Railways at a major turning-point in its history. In certain respects, this was a period of considerable upheaval and loss. There was a facing-up to the increasing need for a big modernisation drive. Full and speedy electrification, or the wider promotion of diesel-power on remaining lines, became a matter of top priority. Geoffrey Jones recorded a rapidly disappearing world of everyday steam travel, with its labour-intensive rail workforce : some of the footage in "Rail" (recognisable from "Snow") dates from around 1962.

A gleaming giant of steam and its cute Lilliputian cousin are an even match in this newsreel battle of the trains.

This one is amusing in its early use of the rubber tire school of animation as Mr. Givny informs Jerry that they are out of coal for the train. The passengers who appear behave amusingly and when the train itself takes on anthropomorphic life, it makes its own sense -- outrageous for the day, even if slightly banal for fans of "Thomas the Engine".
