Mighty Trains takes viewers into the world of rail travel to witness the inner workings of what it takes to launch and execute a mighty journey on the most incredible rail lines in the world! From a grueling climb up the Andes aboard Peru’s Tren Turistico, to a thrilling adventure down the metal spine of Vietnam on the Reunification Express, to ultimate luxury on Japan’s Seven Stars – a train so exclusive you must enter a lottery for a chance to ride!
These trains celebrate the wonder, romance, history and nostalgia of rail travel combined with top notch technology and engineering. Only the mightiest of trains ride along ribbons of steel, champion impossible landscapes, cross bridges of epic spans, through heart stopping tunnels and architectural marvels to claim a spot on the ultimate rail road bucket list.
Mighty Trains has an all access behind the scenes rail pass to powerful locomotives, never before seen rail traffic control centers, massive maintenance depots, and to front line crews along the tracks. It’s a wild ride as we follow engineers, train managers , maintenance and service crews as they navigate their way through busy rail yards and stations, dealing with unexpected operating issues and often dangerous terrain. We explore the train, inside and out with conductors, load-masters, chefs, way inspectors, dispatchers, and passengers on an in-depth journey into the heart of our train.
Mighty Trains is hosted by Teddy Wilson, an engaging and inquisitive train enthusiast. Teddy goes along for the ride from beginning to end, keeping our viewers riveted to every exciting detail of the train and its journey.
