Speaking of the holidays, 1225 is well-known as being the locomotive that was used as the template for the movie "Polar Express" a few years ago. We arrived early so that we captured some of the activity on Friday with the train being assembled for the weekend. We see 1225 moving around, and Flagg Coal Company 0-4-0T Number 75, which was given its original number, 2 for this weekend. Both engines are seen at Owosso as switching duties are performed. On Saturday and Sunday we start before dawn, with sunrise scenes that accent the profile of the fine lines of this steam locomotive. We work two different lines on both Saturday and Sunday including the former New York Central line, and the former Ann Arbor line from Owosso, Michigan. During the days we are treated to several different runbys, that include reflection shots, grain elevators, and much more. In addition some period vintage vehicles are used with some of the runbys. There are scenes of 1225 on the turntable as it is serviced between runs. Two camera coverage includes extra scenes at some locations, plus some spots where we could combine two camera shots into one runby. You won't want to miss this first-ever photo special for Pere Marquette 1225. Color with live stereo audio. Approximately 98 minutes * A few words about compatability and regional encoding. If DVD is listed as or unknown and your DVD player is more than a few years old, check out this site for an easy way to check whether your DVD player is capable of playing 's. Over 96% of DVD players will play a with no trouble. Almost all of the DVD's we carry are NOT regionally encoded (sometimes refered as Region Code 0) which means they will play in any DVD player in the world that is capable of NTSC format. Many DVD players found in countries that use PAL format can also play NTSC format as well.A little bit about Train Video Depot Our business philosophy on our website and on E-Bay is to provide excellent customer service to our customers. Really! We go out of our way to make sure you receive your purchase as quickly as possible. If there are any problems or you have any questions, we'll make sure they're addressed quickly. Shipping We have built this business on getting orders out the SAME DAY whenever possible. Just take a look at our feedback comments and you'll surely notice that delivery speed is one thing that keeps showing up in the comments. Also, as an E-Bay shopper ourselves, we have found that many sellers super-inflate the shipping costs. We don't feel a company should profit from the shipping charges. We set very fair shipping charges to the US, Canada and International countries. For US shipments we use USPS First Class mail which is usually 1-3 days (Monday-Saturday) MAX. If you order 3 or more, that method is often bumped to Priority service which in some cases will shorten delivery time by a day. International Shipments are sent USPS Global Air and can take anywhere from 4 days to 12 days ON AVERAGE.Feedback Comments Outstanding! - packing , speed, description, eMails.
