This is one of the last releases by Blackhawk Films before they were bought out. It was originally released in 8MM format but without sound. With the advent of video tape, a sound version was released to the general public. The film contains mostly Rutland Railroad steam in the early 1950's just before the end of passenger service on the Rutland. As such, there is an appearance of Boston & Maine steam on the Green Mountain Flyer. This was done to equalize mileage between the B&M and Rutland with the jointly run train and was the last use of steam on the western end of the B&M. The double headed Alco RS-3 and 4-8-2 mountain are a real treat as they operate over the Bellows Falls Subdivision. Most Rutland fans will easily recognize the many locations of filming.
