About this project
“On to the Hoosac, On to the West” is a documentary of the history, planning and execution of the Hoosac Tunnel. Going into the surrounding area, the technologies, successes and failures, “On to the Hoosac, On to the West” covers all aspect of this marvel of man.
In addition to the history, “On to the Hoosac, On to the West” will examine some of the greatest ghost stories and murder cover ups surrounding the tunnel. It too will interview tunnel enthusiasts and individuals with personal experience at the tunnel.
Whether you’re a train buff, a history or technology lover, or seeking to explore a fascinating area you’ve never heard of before, “On to the Hoosac, On to the West” is the documentary for you.
To date, we have accomplished filming approximately 80% of the documentary. We are needing the additional funding for the final filming, editing and initial DVD production.

IMR Films was founded in 2001 by Timothy W. Lawrence while he was still in college.
Since that time, the company has done a number of small projects and started getting into larger ones, including documentaries, magazine spreads and on line animations and commercials.
IMR Films is based in Vermont and while it is a small scale company, it still offers exceptional service and quality.
The name IMR comes from the initials for the Latin term "In Medias Res", which translated to English means "In the very midst of things". The reason behind it is because of Lawrence's faith as a Christian and the belief that while we are here on this earth living our lives, The Lord is always "In the very midst of things" and of our beings, leading and guiding, provided we see and accept. As for the future of IMR Films...We'll just have to wait and see!
