150 Years on the Right Track

New Blu-ray/DVD Set — 2019 Program

For over a quarter of a century, Great Scenic Railway Journeys has been showcasing the world's finest railway adventures. In this exciting new program, we explore some of North America's most treasured heritage railways and historic sites.

Relive one of America's greatest transportation achievements — the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad. Journey through Arizona's stunning Red Rock Canyons and come face to face with the national emblem of the United States. Wine and dine aboard North America's only bed and breakfast train, then take a breathtaking steam journey along the shores of Lake Superior as you ride one of the continent's oldest continually operating railroads.

Step back in time to the golden age of the streamliner, and experience all the wonders of Steamtown National Historic Site. Travel deep into the forests of British Columbia by steam to discover the country's only operating steam-powered sawmill. Then head into the Appalachian Mountains to see one of the largest collections of logging locomotives still at work. Finally, take in everything the Black Hills have to offer by rail before finishing the journey with a little music as we wind our way through the Rocky Mountains.
