Publisher: Produced by Pentrex 1994.
Seller ID: P132
New River Masquerade. Here is the thrill of steam locomotive action, with gray smoke billowing and plumes of white steam rising into the air, tracks twisting along a rocky river gorge, and scenic West Virginia mountains bathed in glorious fall colors. Ex-Nickel plate Berkshire-type locomotive 765, repainted, renumbered, and modified to resemble its former cousins, the 2-8-4's named Kanawhas by the C&O, heads up three Fall Foliage excursions through the spectacular New River Gorge. Pentrex follows the masquerading 2765 on its trips from Huntington, West Virginia, to Hinton and back, through one of the most popular train watching spots on the continent. Engineer Rich Melvin invites us into the cab for the ride from Montgomery to Thurmond, and explains what he's doing and how the engine is performing. He has plenty to say as the locomotive pulls upgrade on wet rails, slipping its drivers again and again as it makes its way through the gorge toward Hawks Nest. Pentrex captures this history-making journey in all its memorable excitement - the echoing sounds of the steam whistle, the rumble and roar of the locomotive as it flashes past. Witness C&O steam power thundering up and down the mainline once more in C&O 2765, New River Masquerade. 90 Minutes In Color with Live Audio and Narration. Packaged in Sturdy Vinyl Clamshell Case. Retail $29.95.
