Short Line Enterprises became part of the film industry by accident. The founders never planned for that to happen, it was just the inevitable outcome of buying a major portion of the industry’s extensive collection of historic railroad equipment and restoring important pieces to operating condition.
From the spring of 1972 through January of 1988, Short Line was involved in 64 productions – 16 Feature Films, 9 Mini Series/Movies of the week, 14 TV Series episodes, 19 TV Commercials, 1 Music Video, 1 Orientation film for CSRM and 4 Pageants.
