Scenes of F-7 streamlined steam and F7 diesel power tell the tale with remarkable clarity. This video will please our members across the system. It couples written historical text with spontaneous interviews and appropriate on-screen images. No railfan will be bored because the video moves as rapidly as some of the classic steam, electric and diesel trains it depicts. The footage is from several major collections including the Milwaukee Road Historical Association and film shot by the railroad itself.
Several authorities handle the narration.
The principal narration is from former Milwaukee Road employee and author Jim Scribbins. Cameo appearances are provided by rail historian and author Jim Neubauer, former transit executive and author George Krambles, former Milwaukee Road electrical engineer Bill Janasen, photographer and author Sandy Goodrick, along with a final commentary by the Milwaukee Road's last Public Relations Director, Wallace W. Abbey. To reserve one or more copies, please send the order blank below to MILW Video, MRHA, PO Box 307, Antioch, IL 60002. This video will be available about the end of 1998, and shipping will begin early in 1999. You'll enjoy this video again and again for a very long time.
