NP24 REVIEW: Video Librarian 

This special entry in Jim and Kelly Watt’s acclaimed Discoveries…America National Parks series focuses on magnificent parks that also feature a train line. Here, viewers board vintage trains to witness natural beauty, starting with the Grand Canyon Railway,  The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in Colorado travels an old route once used to transport metal ores mined in Silverton and brought to Durango. Gorgeous long shots of the train, with its steam engine and bumblebee-yellow cars moving through a spectacular valley, are accompanied by footage of an annual event in which people dress up in historic Western outfits amidst lots of hoopla and music. The Golden Spike National Historic Site in Utah is where the Transcontinental Railroad—joining eastward and westward tracks—was completed in 1869,  Re-enactments of the project’s completion can be seen most days of the year,  Also covered here is the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, which originally carried coal and passengers across the Tuscarawas River Valley to Akron and Cleveland. Farther northwest, the Denali National Park—with its six million acres and tallest mountain in North America (Mount Denali)—is crossed daily by the Alaska Railroad, which has been traveling from Fairbanks to Anchorage since 1923, offering plenty to see in the way of mountains, glaciers, and wildlife. Sure to appeal to train buffs and armchair travelers, this is highly recommended. Aud: P. (T. Keogh)

Kinda flimsy…
Thought the assembly was metal, it’s some kind of PVC.

Stacking shelves
These work perfectly, even in rooms with high ceilings. One thing I didn’t really see mentioned or highlighted anywhere is that they can be stacked. I decided to try it anyway, and it turned out awesome. I purchased two units and placed one on top of the other, which essentially created one tall shelf. It ended up being a great way to maximize vertical space and made the setup look much more custom and intentional

Do not hesitate!
I was hesitant with some reviews saying it comes with scratches. This was packaged extremely well and it only had one or two very minimal scratches that you barely can even see. It is very sturdy and took about 40 minutes to build. It looks amazing and is not bulky but holds a lot which I love. After building this one, I immediately ordered a second one to go on the other side of my window. My son walks in and saw this bookcase and now wants one for his room, so I will be definitely ordering more.

I love this shelving unit!
We recently moved into a smaller home and I was struggling with storage. I found this and I’m so glad I did. It looks so good and I was able to assemble pretty quick, I think like 20 mins. I still need to get my husband to attach it to the wall but it’s the prefect size for my space. The only thing I wish was better is the instructions to assemble. It’s really easy once you figure it out but the instructions are just a few pictures on a small piece of paper. I love it!!!
