I am so glad these programs can be seen on KZitem. I've never been able to buy any of the DVDs because of financial reasons and now, I'm finally able to see these fine programs here on KZitem. I've seen 2 or 3 others so far and I am loving them! I look forward to seeing tons more of these programs! 👍👍👍👍👍

Family got to visit this Area as a Kid many Summers on Vacation from STL. My Dad’s Aunt had a Cabin near Tunnel 28 (between Wondervu & Pinecliffe) before it was Day Lighted. Walked the Scary Tunnel 27 many times. 😬 Thanks for the Great Video. 👍

Great Video and Beautiful scenery.The attention to the perfect shots .I need some of those Pine cones . Every time a train honks at you I wave too. Now I know Amtrak runs by there too.I might have to take that trip sometime. My Grandson is here , He says Grandma are those Oregon Trail ruts going up the hills? I said probably they are Fence line roads. Oh He said . It is Montana ..Can't wait for Part two. That track and Tunnels . your videos are awesome . Mr Moffat did a great job ! Grandson said ..

One cannot but be impressed by the vision and engineering that made this route possible - well before the era of aerial mapping and GPS technology. It is unfortunate however that the maintenance of the historical portals (marker 1:39:56+) appears to have been neglected. 2023/10/01. Ontario, Canada.

I grew up in NW Colorado where David Moffat was a legend. His private rail car, the Marcia, sits near the city park in Craig and as a kid we went inside all the time, as it had been restored and was open to the public. We thought it was quite opulent, though in retrospect, it wasn't any more so than most. I rode one of the last passenger runs from Steamboat Springs to Craig as a child before it was discontinued. Your videos are truly top drawer. Thanks for posting!

When you think about the work and engineering involved with this and most of it over 100 years ago is quite something. The Eisenhower tunnel is amazing but the Moffat is right there. Don't want to overnight on a train, would never fall asleep, but would take Den to Glenwood Springs for sure. The Rocky Mountaineer looks nice but man that ride is pricey. The service and food/drinks look nice, but for around $3K less for a couple to take the Zephyr would be an easy decision for us.

Thank you for your kind words! Back in 2012, the Moffat video series was shot on a Sony Z5U. My current go-to camera is the Sony Z280. It is perfect for the type of run-and-gun shooting that these videos require. Everything is edited in either Adobe Premiere Pro or Davinci Resolve.
