4.0 out of 5 stars
Strictly Informational, July 25, 2000
This review is from: Runaway Trains (DVD)
Overall, it was actually quite a nice documentary on some of the more serious train accidents that occurred within the 20th century, with a brief background look on the history and function of trains, which have come a long way til now. It went in detail, with real life survivor accounts and computer animation to recount the accidents in detail. However, one thing that I had to comment was how horrible the computer effects were... they provide little imagination to what could have happened in real life, which is of course, much more terrifying that anyone could imagine. There was actually one other similar show that was broadcasted on FOX a while ago entitled Runaway Trains, and it went on with providing more information and detail about each individual accident, most of which was also covered by this collection. All in all, this is one of the most complementary collections that is available on the market today.... certainly worth watching for once or twice.

Video and narration well done and professional. It's a good addition to your railroad video collection. Gives you alittle more respect for the railroad community.
