So, 'Workin' on the Santa Fe' is a real treasure for railway enthusiasts. It takes you on a journey back to the 50s and 70s, showcasing those zebra-striped switch engines and colorful F-units. The pacing of the film is laid-back, which I find fitting for the subject matter—it feels like a casual stroll through the history of Santa Fe trains. The practical effects are all there, with real trains in action, no CGI nonsense. There’s something about the way they show the welding of rail or the track geometry cars that just feels authentic. It’s more about the atmosphere of the time and the craftsmanship behind the scenes than a traditional narrative. Definitely a unique slice of railroading history.
