"SVS Film continues to provide a quality product at a reasonable price, with outstanding views not generally seen elsewhere and crisp, sharp audio. In this latest release, given the limitations of a locomotive cab, the sequences are outstanding. The banter between engineer and fireman is a delight, especially about being a show off, when the pops lifted! With the recent removal of #93 from service for extensive (and Expensive!), repairs, it will likely be some time before we see this locomotive in service again. NN deserves support, hopefully this fine video will provide some riders and perhaps some donations as well. As I have said in the past, this new release from SVS, only makes one hunger for more."
