    Amazing. I have the same story. No internet, video games or TV, but we had the Christmas Floods on VHS. Watched it over and over. My Dad was a civil engineer. Worked at the Goleta Water District. My brothers and I still quote the narrator's little monologue of "The Mad, the Klamath, Trinity, and Van Heusen."

    It's crazy. I must have watched that film 50 times. There was no internet back then, and my parents wouldn't let me play video games either. TV was also banned from the house.
    At the time, my Dad worked in Municipal Water, I have no clue where he got the film from. I remember watching in on 8mm projection. Later, he had a VHS copy. We moved too many times, and it was lost forever. Great film though, lot's of rare footage & great narration.

    We lived in Rio Dell in December 1964. I was not quite 2 years old. My mother, father and I walked over the Rio Dell/Scotia bridge to stay with friend till the flood was over.

    My father has told me the stories of driving up 101 from willits to Eureka that day. He called the bus depot about an hour or so after he got his sick uncle and his car my father drove for him to get back home in Eureka. Well the bus depote told him the bridge that goes over Eel River is gone. Good thing it was dark when they drove over it so they couldn't see all the water that was getting ready to take it out.

    When I was a kid in the 80's, my dad had that old CalTrans film reel and I remember watching the "Christmas Floods of 1964" I think it was called. Wonder when someone will upload it to TH-cam.

    The DVD is made from movies and slides form the nwprrhs.org archives. This includes the SP movie from 1965. If there is a caltrans movie out there we would sure like to have a copy. railroadvideoguy
