From Karlynn R. in Kewanee, Illinois —
"Could you tell me when the new train videos/dvd's will be coming out?? I think Real Trains For Kids 1 and 2 have been played so much that they are getting thin. I think I actually have them memorized forwards and backwards. My son loves them soooo much but mommy is ready for some new ones. Could you give me an educated guess how much longer I'll have to wait?? Thanks."

From Elaine W. in Eugene, Oregon —
“The train video is visually wonderful. Not just for kids! My husband said he hadn’t known before about how the railroad ties went in or seen trains linking together.”

From the L. family in Denver, Colorado —
“We watched the Real Trains For Kids video last night for our son’s second birthday. He loved it. He sat for the entire length of the show having never sat still for ANY other program for more than 5 or 10 minutes. We’re looking forward to the Real Trains For Kids II DVD. Thanks.”

From Kerry T. in Kalamazoo, Michigan —
"My three-year-old boy has had the Real Trains DVD 1 and 2 since around October, and he will watch it EACH and EVERY day of the week!!! He prefers it over CARTOONS and never gets bored with it!!!!!!!! One time he was on the phone with his uncle for fifteen minutes explaining dialogue from the show." 

From Kathleen A. in Fairfax, Virginia —
“My son LOVES his Real Trains for Kids video. It is exactly what we were looking for. In fact, we’re so pleased with it that we would like to order the Real Trains for Kids II video.”

A year later: "I just ordered your latest train video, The River Subdivision. We are going on a trip on Friday. If you could send it out as soon as possible, I would really appreciate it. You've got two boys who love love love your videos, and this would make our life on the road to Maine a lot happier. So thank you so much, and keep up the good work."    

From Kathleen S. in Traverse City, Michigan —
“My son loves it! Also, it is the first one I’ve seen with shots of the rails being fixed.”

From Steve H. in New York City, NY —
“We love your video. My son is 2.5 years old. He is bonkers for your movie. This was his best Christmas present yet. He has watched the movie a LOT! In fact, at many a dinner he has recited verbatim large sections of your dialogue track. God bless you one and all.”

We didn't realize we were in the health-care business, and then we were thrilled to receive these e-mails:

From George L. in Narberth, Pennsylvania —
"We live along a commuter train line just outside Philadelphia, and our son recently became so afraid of trains (on account of all those Thomas characters constantly derailing) that we couldn't even walk within two blocks of the nearby train station. Just a few days of watching Real Trains For Kids has brought our son to the point that he can stand on the platform to watch trains come and go, so thanks a ton for putting this video together. It's a great resource."

From Deb M. in St. Louis, Missouri —
First e-mail "My grandson (nearly two) cannot get enough of trains. He is having heart surgery July 10 and we need a train video to entertain him as he recovers. I was almost forced to buy a camera and go down to the tracks to make my own video. Then, we discovered your site!!"
Second e-mail "Train DVD arrived and we've watched it just shy of a million times. J LOVES it. It is continually on -- and I am not kidding. It has made all the difference in J's recuperation from the surgery!!! From an adult perspective, it is very well done and interesting for all of us --even after a million viewings. My husband is also a huge train fanatic, so the footage of so many kinds of trains and their history is ideal. Thanks for the great job in making this DVD. "
