4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Terrific!, November 24, 1999
By 
K. Eagle (Westminster, CO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The American Freedom Train: The Year in Pictures 1975 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Okay ... I was literally forced to watch this kicking and screaming by a train-guru friend of mine. Watch paint dry or grass grow, tweeze eyebrows, or visit the dentist ... all of these seemed more pleasing options than watching some "train movie." But in my attempts to get in this friend's best graces, I agreed to act interested. Thing is ... I didn't have to act. It wasn't a documentary about cogs and coal ... it was truly a human interest story that drew me in. The story unveiled itself over the course of the 2 year span in such a way that I truly felt a part of the journey. Having viewed both videos, I wish that I would have actually seen the Freedom Train when it came through my town in 1976. Nevertheless, this film's retracing of the Freedom Train's conception, vision, planning, mishaps, course, precious and interesting cargo, and familial bonds developed makes me feel even more a part of the whole adventure than if I had been "dragged" to see it in '76 when I was a whiny little girl. I have a higher appreciation, not only for the idea and vision itself, but for the incredible efforts contributed by those with this dream. I encourage any of you with the opportunity to share in this experience to do so. You may not only be surprised by the appeal of this film, but also by your own expanding array of interests.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great source of information and well presented!, October 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The American Freedom Train: The Year in Pictures 1975 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Everything you wanted to know about America's Freedom Train is right here at your fingertips. We needed some information for a research project my son was doing at school and this ended up being the perfect tool. Watching the video was much more conducive to learning about the Freedom Train than reading it out of a textbook! Full of information and nicely narrated -- it provided us a terrific collection of photographs and historical data. A great source of facts and details.

1.0 out of 5 stars outstanding, a must own for anyone who loves trains, September 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The American Freedom Train: The Year in Pictures 1975 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
As a long time fan of the rail and trains, I found these tapes informative and well done. I have seen a lot of tapes on trains and this on is clearly a must for anyone who loves trains. The producers have done a wonderful job of catching the feeling of what it must have been like to be a part of the whole Freedom Train experience...
