I haven't seen it myself, but IIRC the DVD of the Pentrex "Union Pacific Big Boy Collection" got rave reviews when it came out. It has film of all 25 engines in action, and I think the DVD has some other stuff, diagrams and/or photos or some other technical info(?) I seem to remember one reviewer saying it was basically the best railroad DVD put out to that point in time.

 Yes I have seen the trailer to Pentrex Union Pacific Big Boy Collection, it does look very good.

I had the Big Boy Collection first in Video and now in DVD. My grandson received the Video's when I received the DVD's and being only seven I am amazed how he will sit for hours and watch train videos. He receives all of my Videos as I upgrade to DVD. Now when he comes over he manages to leave the house with a half dozen DVDs each time so I am finding it just as easy to order two of everything that I want.

i have purchased a six dvd set called extreme steam and i am very pleased with this collection as each dvd is approxametly two hours a piece which gives the viewer twelve hours of pure viewing enjoyment.what steam engines are included on them this i can't recall but if you enjoy steam trains as much as i do you are sure to enjoy this boxed set i highly recomend it.

 Well I order the two Challenger items, the DVD and CD ,Union Pacific Challenger 3985 SoundTrack -America's Steam Trains-Challenger 3985-The Worlds Largest Operating Steam Locomotive.  And love them both.  The Soundtrack has clean digital sounds of the Challenger, all 27 tracks are music to my ears!

And the Pentrex - Union Pacific Big Boy Collection just came today, can't wait to watch it later!!
