Men of the Rail – DVD

men of the railA friend of mine has just recently finished production on a documentary film titled Men of the Rail. It’s about the North Carolina Branch railroad that runs through our town (Pulaski, VA) and beyond. He filmed some great footage on the New River Trail and interviews with retired engineers from the North Carolina Branch. The reason I bring this to your attention is that the film has just been released on DVD. It’s about 45 minutes long and features a soundtrack written and performed by Brad Davis. The soundtrack features some tracks from Brad’s CDs, but also includes material he wrote specifically for this project. If you like trains, or Brad Davis, then it’s worth a watch/listen. You can see a preview clip and order your copy online at the website for the New River Valley Fine Arts Center.
