For the first time, prototype mainline action of one of America’s most scenic mountain crossings focuses on the details model railroaders are interested in—tracks, tunnels, bridges, scenery, rolling stock, and overhead views. Everything the modeler needs to re-create California’s Donner Pass in a home layout is captured with maps, full narration, and all-natural train sound. No interviews and very little background music—just footage shot on location that captures the challenges of Donner’s brutal grades.
