As steam locomotives were replaced by diesels, they were shunted to the Peninsula to work out their last days in commute service. A segment of this program includes historic footage that documents a typical afternoon rush hour as everything from twenty-four hundred class Pacifics to forty-four hundred-class mountain types thunder out of San Francisco at three-minute intervals.
The finale of the halcyon days of one hundred years of steam are being played out in front of our eyes, as though there is no end in sight. Yet within two years steam will be dead for all time on the SP.

Ship as fast as possible and provide excellent customer service to our customers. If there are any problems or you have any questions, we'll make sure they're addressed quickly.
IMPORTANT! The best way to order multiple items is to add them to your cart and then check out ONCE. Instead of ordering an item, checking out then ordering again. Multiple orders placed to the same address will ship COMBINED in one shipment.
ALL US orders ship via USPS 1st Class Mail or USPS Priority Mail*. Normally this takes from 1-3 business days. *Ok, there is one item we sell (a book) that ships via Media Mail as it weighs more than the first class maximum.
Orders received before 3PM PST (and often later) will ship out the same day.
International orders ship via USPS First Class Mail. Delivery times are difficult to estimate and are at the mercy of customs in the country being shipped to. We've had pretty good and fast delivery service to most countries.
Please note that international orders are subject to customs taxes in your country. These are the responsibility of the buyer.
Returns are accepted for 14 days. Item must be in sellable condition (no scratches, fingerprints, etc).
