All Good Things Must Come to An End covers the Southern Steam Program over a 13 year period of time. (1981 to 1994.) Several different steam locomotives that ran in the Steam Program are featured including:
1. Southern (Chesapeake & Ohio) 2716
2. Savannah & Atlanta 750
3. Nickel Plate Road 587
4. Nickel Plate Road 765
5. Southern Railway 4501
6. Atlanta & West Point 290
7. Norfolk & Western 611
8. Frisco 1522
9. Norfolk & Western 1218
10. US Army (TVRM) 610
Along with Southern & NS Diesel power as well.
Of note, the program includes rare footage of N&W 1218's 1985 move from the Roanoke Transportation Museum to the Steam Shop in Birmingham Alabama.
Footage included in this program is a combination of previously unreleased material & material recycled from previously released Trackside Video programs such as Assault on Asheville, Trains To Match The Mountains (1989), The A And The J (1987) & Steamin' in '91 (1991).
The video quality of the pre -1987 material is poor, due to being shot on consumer grade VHS camera equipment (which did not have the bandwidth to support full color video & HiFi sound at the time.) & technical issues when the footage was shot, which is the reason why the color & brightness of said material is inconsistent.
This program was made by the long defunct Trackside Video, A video company operated from 1987 until 2008 out of Lake Forest, Georgia & has been lost for 29 years. Most if not all of the Trackside Video programs are lost media and are hard to find.
Nickel Plated Productions does not lay claim to the ownership of this program or its copyright. Ownership & Copyright belongs to Trackside Video. This has been uploaded in an effort to preserve the historical contents of this long lost video.
