It is said : "The more the host irritates you the more intelligent you are."
The next statement in the equations is " The shows are gear for the average person"
Then you come to the sad conclusion that " Not Much is Geared for YOU"

PS I can't wait to see what the next train is.

Ok Watch Extreem trains tonight.....They are going from L A to Dalls. I think they have to come through AZ to do that. Will Check road assless to make sure.
Anyway Watch the program and I will tell you if I recognize any land marks. ( That is if they come through AZ )

I've watched both episodes so far, I agree the "host" is a little too "outgoing" for me but most of the train shots are decent. I looked forward to last nites show as I 've railfanned most of that territory from LA to Fort Worth/Dallas. Had hoped the program would show a lot more of Arizona including Kingman, Williams and Flagstaff. Anyway, the program sure beats a movie about trucks, etc.
There is a Video of a "CAB RIDE" from Kingman to Di Oblo Canyon. Or it might be Needles to Di Oblo canyon.
It is interesting.
I slept through it three times.

I liked the produce train one also. Having lived in Oregon and Washington I reconized some of the areas.
Some times when I was bored on a sunday afternoon I would cross over into Washington and drive up the Columbia Gorge then cross over to the Oregon side and drive back to Portland. I really enjoyed that trip.
PS. I saw how they fused the rails together using high voltage. Hmmmmm I wonder if we could do that with our rail using 220

I thought last nights HIGH shots was great, just sad they did not show NE or IA , bummer. love the headend power.
Don't feel left out. They didn't show any of AZ either two weeks before. I think the Steam Train stuff doesnt fit in with Deseasals.
Was I seeing things but Was there water runing out of the Flues in the Steam picture? I wonder if they have a cracked flue?
