    This two-hour celebration of the Green Mountain State's railroad renaissance features the Green Mountain Railroad, its founder F. Nelson Blount and his live steam locomotives through the cranberry bogs of Edaville, Massachusetts and Steamtown U.S.A on former Rutland Railroad and Boston & Maine tracks in New Hampshire and Vermont. Experience vintage film, photos, interviews, anecdotes, ephemera, and more. Vermont Governor Phil Hoff, F. Nelson Blount, Fred Richardson, Robert W. "Bob" Adams and others created the second state-owned, privately operated railroad in the country. Join Mr. Adams, Governor Hoff, historians, train crews and photographers who share fascinating rail tales you'll want to hear again and again. GREEN MOUNTAIN RAILROAD & STEAMTOWN U.S.A. was painstakingly created by Vermont filmmaker and railroad insider James R. "Jim" Jones during the past decade. This ambitious documentary spotlights the rebirth of former Rutland Railway mainline from Rutland to Bellows Falls, Vermont as a tourist and freight Mecca from 1964 to the present. All facets of the operation are explored. This real-life story of "the little engines that could" is the third of six documentaries in the VERMONT RAIL SYSTEM SERIES. Enjoy them all! (1 hour, 57 minutes with bonus features)

    I remember Steam Town USA opening. I lived in Winchester (south of Keene NH) and was about ten years old. Everyone was excited about it.
