Whatever happened to Pentrex and those great VCR tapes of various regional railroads? Seems they haven't had any thing new in at least 10 years.

Are there any productions on current rail operations, such as NEC to Boston via Acela - or anything on Acela? :(

It does seem like they haven't shot much new material since the late '90s. Not sure why. They are still in business and they've been re-releasing many of their productions on DVD. Would be nice to see some new material though.

I stand corrected. It appears that they have produced some new material as recently as 2005.

Hi All,

They have also taken over several smaller RR videotape suppliers. Valhalla, out of Tustin, CA is one of them. All Valhalla videotapes are now part of the Pentrex catalog.
