"Railroading Paradise" Captures the Six Month Journey of Honolulu Rail Project

KHON: In 2012, Chair of the (pro-rail) Oahu Group of the Sierra Club Anthony Aalto spent six months with photography director Mike Hinchey exploring the controversial arguments that were both for and against the Honolulu rail project.

"Railroading Paradise" is a documentary that captures what is to become the biggest civil engineering project in Hawaii and asks the question, how could a five billion dollar, 20-mile long railway, built 30 feet in the air, ever be justified as environmentally responsible on a small island like Oahu?

(Yes!  How could the Sierra Club justify its support of Rail?  Great question!)
