An all new season, Tracks Ahead 7, is out in January, 2009. As
with the previous two seasons, it is in high
definition, with digital 5.1 surround sound. The 14 part
season includes
segments from Japan, the Caribbean, Patagonia, and all around the United
States.
Two other high definition series are out. Tracks Ahead 5 was
released in 2003, and Tracks Ahead 6 was released in 2006. Each series is available on your local Public TV station, with a formidable lineup
of features for railroading novices as well as experts. The series is available to all
PBS stations in high definition and digital 5.1 surround sound, and in regular letterboxed TV.
If you don't see it, contact your local PBS affiliate and ask about the series.
As always, the magazine-style series explores every aspect of the railroads of the
world. You'll see railroad prototypes, models, personalities and lore covering not only the
railways and modelers of the past, but of the present and future.
