Empires of Steam Reviews
A very well done documentary on China and Indian Railways
This is a very well done production on an very interesting topic. The editing and video qualities are superb along with the selection of contents. For rail buffs, steam fans and people who are interested in Chinese and Indian cultures, this tape covers all those territories. Eventhough the tape is not catered towards the most mechanically oriented rail buffs, it still presented present day China Rail and Indian Railway in a concise and interesting fashion.
At last - a steam video that can see beyond the locomotives
I confess to being a steam train afficianado. I have seen many, many steam videos but most suffer from being overly technical and narrowly focused. Not this one, thank you. With a wonderfully mellow narrator and a script that gives an historical and sociological base to the excellent camerwork, this video is very watchable. The music is as mournful as it is appropriate as we watch the end of a glorious period in transportation. Highly recommended.
