As THE former lighting guru in MSTS early years, I am wondering if this is the guy in the 2003-2005 era that use to post on the MSTS forums about building the ‘SUPERTRAIN’??? If so, nice to see you made it and got it working!!
I remember this show, and was sad to see it go off. Knowing rails inside and out, it makes me laugh to see just how STUPID the people who made this series were on all things rail-related!!
Like the steam coming off the locomotive in the clips…;-)
Thanks!!!!

2003-2005 hum.
Possibly not, I did talk to him I think & tried to help him out if it is I think who your talking about.
I was the one who had trouble converting my TRAINZ ‘Supertrain’ into one for MSTS.
It’s not as easy as it sounds, yanno.
As for the show itself.
Yea they got a lot of things wrong, I think they were just making things up as they went along and hoped people would buy into it.
Guess that’s yet anouther reason the show failed, the ‘does it ring true ?’ test.

Imagine if NBC remade this ?

Only if they use CGI for the train itself.
The reason the show cost what it did was buliding several ’scaled’ versions of the train to run outdoors.

Cool post. Thanks. I was 11 when this aired. It was so cool looking and heavily promoted there was no way I was going to miss it. The thrill wore off real quick. Wiki says only 9 episodes. My fuzzy memory easily concurs. Gotta love that disco!

Yup, 8 one hour Episodes, and 1 two hour pilot, the 2 hour pilot made it to VHS as a movie, and has been shown on TV as one as well.
If the pilot was counted as a 2 part episode that’d make it 10 episodes.
However, because the rest of the show has never been rerun on TV the pilot remains a 2 hour movie & can be bought from Amazon !?!?
Weirdness

Well, as Real as any other TV show from the late 1970’s, early 80’s was.

Correction its windows movie maker not microsoft movie maker
Comment by thommmiey — June 15, 2009 @ 5:10 pm
Well, it’s made by Microsoft so both names are valid.
Does it really matter ?
Comment by Woulfe — June 17, 2009 @ 7:20 am
Gotta dig the the suggestion in the elements of the theme.
The opening bass-line evokes images of madly-pounding pistons, and the horns suggest the dawning of a new era before taking a “charging” melody.
Then the violins give notion of a superhero-esque something coming down to earth, before merely accompanying the horns to represent a train whistle.
Then at the conclusion of it, the synths make a sound of suggestive of something whooshing-by at high speeds.
Overall, a well thought-out work!

Heh, I didn’t make the music….
The music is theTheme from ‘Supertrain’ that I found online and embeded into the video before posting it to here.
Thanks in part to Micro$oft Movie Maker.

California is going to build a high speed rail between San Francisco and L.A. This would be the way to go.
Or better yet – between L.A. and Las Vegas.
A few years ago the Supertrain model was sold through an ad in Model Railroader and has not been heard of since.

Was this pre-ebay? Any idea what it went for?
Comment by vonbose1 — October 26, 2009 @ 2:47 pm
Yes, several years before Ebay. I think the owner wanted $25,000. I don’t know that there was any follow-up in MR because it was an ad, not an article.
Comment by spinsandneedles — October 26, 2009 @ 2:54 pm
they are planning to start on the construction of the desert Xpress high speed in March of 2010, I hard that the CAHSR would start on their construction in 2012.
Comment by sideslide23 — November 12, 2009 @ 7:57 pm
this is a great rail technology, a wide body train, i wander if they would make this a reality in the world?
Comment by sideslide23 — November 13, 2009 @ 6:24 pm
Possibly not, jet travel has replaced train travel in the world.
Comment by Woulfe — November 23, 2009 @ 10:42 am
it did in the 1960s but Bullet Trains in england parris, Japan, and Germany replace air travel.
