The Tamarack on the upper ridges had turned brilliant yellow while the leaves down in the river valleys displayed a rainbow of fall colors. Breaking the stillness of that Montana morning came the haunting sounds of a steam locomotive echoing along the rocky cliffs of the Clark Fork River.

Re-tracing the historic route of the Northern Pacific, we followed the giant SP&S 700 locomotive for a week as it pulled the Montana Daylight passenger train from Sandpoint to Billings and back. With digital broadcast cameras shooting off the locomotive's nose, inside the cab, from several ground positions, and inside a helicopter, SKYFIRE crews documented every thrilling moment of this high rail steam adventure side-by-side
with the train crew!

Now comes a fascinating true story of Montana's history, wildlife, and uncharted landscapes mixed with the thundering sounds of a classic steam locomotive. Imagine riding inside the cab as the engineer hauls back on the shiny steel throttle, bringing the massive 440-ton Baldwin locomotive to life!
