Ride through Mexico's Copper Canyon, which is deeper, wider, and longer than the Grand Canyon. Visit an old logging railroad in the shadow of Mt. Rainier, meet a man whose collecting of brass models turned into a showcase layout modeled after central Wyoming, and finally take a look at the exquisite pictures of, and talk with, photographer/artist Ted Benson. This magazine-style series has a unique appeal for train lovers of all ages, for railroading novices as well as experts, as it explores every aspect of the railroads of the world.Now broadcast on more than 200 PBS stations across America, host Spencer Christian (formerly of ABC's Good Morning America) presents the best of steam locomotives, railroad stories, model trains and art. "We're striving for more depth in each episode," said David Baule, executive producer and director of the series. "The stories will intrigue a variety of viewers, while walking a middle line between technical and general information. Our goal is to capture the excitement and history of railroading. We continue to explore everything involved with it, from model trains and museums to collectors and authors."
