Streamliners: America's Lost Trains

History Documentary hosted by Liev Schreiber, published by PBS broadcasted as part of PBS American Experience series in 2001 - English narration



Information
------------------------------

Using beautiful period footage and photographs - some of which have been held in private collections and never viewed by the public - and interviews with the men and women who rode and worked on the rails, Streamliners uncovers the dramatic story of the rise and fall of an American passenger rail system that was the envy of the world. The film paints a vivid portrait of the men whose creativity and determination produced the streamliner, chronicles the tremendous impact the trains had on the U.S. during the 1930s, and explores the reasons why postwar America turned its back on the world's best passenger rail system.
