Eli,
The original 1934 "The Silver Streak" movie was made using the Pioneer Zephyr and there are a lot of good scenes of the complete Zephyr - although not lettered as the Burlington Route.
LocoSteamChaser Productions made a DVD from the Ray Benson Jr collection of Bob Melcher and John Goodman films. This DVD covers 1940 to 1960 and includes Zephyrs in Minn and Wisc.
Top Frog Series Volume 7, The CB&Q covers 1950 to 1970 passenger trains, some Zephyrs, and freight trains. Includes first generation of diesels.
Charles Smiley DVD, "Empire of the North" has early Zephyrs but also covers the NP, GN and SP&S.
Herron Rail Services "Glory Machines 3" covers 1935 to 1958 with shots of the Zephyrs but also includes other railroads: Milwaukee, CNW, IC, NYC, Penn, SF, and others.
I know there are other DVD that include early Zephyrs, and am sure others will advise on those as well.
Hope this helps.
RAY Bedard

Subject: [CBQ] Looking for Vintage Footage of Zephyrs
I did a quick search on YouTube for CB&Q Zephyrs and most of the videos that pop up are of the Nebraska Zephyr at the Illinois Railway Museum. What I'm looking for is vintage footage of the Zephyrs in action from the 1930s to the 1960s. I've recently come
across Sunday River Productions' "Burlington Zephyrs" DVD. Does this video have what I'm looking for?
Thanks,
Eli Santin
