Volume four in the Classic Collector's series takes the viewer on an historical journey through America's steam engine past, when the mighty 4-6-6-4 Challengers ruled the rails of the Union Pacific. Featured are thrilling pacing scenes and double headers, as well as helper scenes in Weber and Echo Canyons. The program also provides footage of some beautifully scenic areas as the Challengers steam up Sherman Hill and thunder through the Wasatch Mountains. Professional color footage has been combined with original sound re-recorded in stereo to produce a rare and spectacular tribute to America's steam heritage.
