It is a one hour show that comes on RFDTV on Mondays at 5:00 p.m. (central time), 11:00 p.m., and Tuesdays at 5:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., And Saturday mornings at 8:00 a.m. (these are all repeats of the same episode for that week).

The one train has 2 steamlined Pacifics, if it was'nt painted green it would almost be a dead ringer for a streamlined Pennsylvania K-4. In another part one train stalls on a grade, you have to here and see it getting started, I got chills. Those Australians really know how to run fan trips. If only RFD TV had as many train shows as tractor shows.

The show listed as "Trains & Locomotives" is actually the series "Machines of Iron." It is a one hour show that comes on RFDTV on Mondays at 5:00 p.m. (central time), 11:00 p.m., and Tuesdays at 5:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., And Saturday mornings at 8:00 a.m. (these are all repeats of the same episode for that week). I usually catch the Monday 5:00 show, and if it is really good I'll tape it one of the other times. The 30 minute show "I Love Trains" (sometimes listed as "Great Layouts") is a 30 minute show about O scale train layouts, primarily Lionel and American Flyer. These are fun to watch, especially if you are in to O scale or these two brands of trains. It is also on numerous times, but in the latter half of the week.
