Description: ProducergsvpRuntime45 +23 Previews mins.Item NumberGSVP-BIGBOYScreen SizeFull ScreenRegion Code *0 Plays AnywhereBig Boys and Challengers DVD Greg SchollThis video has been years in the making, as we have attempted to accumulate enough footage to justify such a release. We have 8mm footage by Warren Scholl, shot in 1954, but the majority of footage is 16mm color footage, including a good amount by Perry Becker who made more than one trip to the area. Locations shown are North Platte, Cheyenne, Laramie, Rawlins, and of course action on Sherman Hill between Cheyenne and Laramie. You will see interesting things such as a "Big Boy" number 4006 on fire as it exits Hermosa Tunnel, with its stack hood still on as well. Also see a Gas Turbine leading a Big Boy in 3 different scenes. You will see the engine service areas in the locations mentioned above, and see some of the dead engine lines late in the steam era. This footage is all shot silent of course, and we have added music and informative narration. However, we do have another segment with some 16mm sound footage on Sherman Hill which includes several doubleheaders, such as 5500 series 2-10-2's with Challengers and Big Boys. There are also a couple of Big Boy scenes by Everett Rohrer, and some film he shot of the first test run, and first excursions in 1982 when Challenger 3985 first operated. So, for all those lovers of BIG BOYS, and big articulated steam Giants this one is for you.

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.
