Another High-Quality Digital Production from TSG Multimedia

On the weekend of March 17th and 18th, 2007, the Niles Canyon Railway in Fremont, California, hosted the Triple Tank Steam Fest. Three working tank engines performed spectacular triple-headed and double-headed run-bys, as well as working independently hauling passengers through scenic Niles Canyon.

This video features spectacular shots from both on and off the photo lines, including exclusive ride-along shots from the locomotive. The production covers activity at Brightside Yard and a triple-headed shakedown run on Friday, March 16th, the triple-headed morning passenger and afternoon mixed train on Saturday, March 17th, and single-headed passenger runs on Sunday, March 18th.

Featured in this video are Quincy Railroad No. 2, an Alco 2-6-2T which has operated on the Niles Canyon Railway since the early 1990s, Robert Dollar No. 3, another Alco 2-6-2T that was restored to operation just in time for this event, and Granite Rock No. 10, a Porter 0-6-0T that came down from the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento to participate in the event.

"Whether you witnessed this one-time event in person or missed it entirely, this video, featuring spectacular scenery, excellent photography, classic coaches and three vintage steam locomotives hauling freight, passenger and mixed trains, puts you trackside for this unique three-day triple-tank Steam Fest on the historic route of the Niles Canyon Railway!"
