- A real treat are these scenes from our classic DVD "Union Pacific Vintage West" www.cspmovies.com
Visit eight states and see America’s original line that helped build the west. Filmed by 14 different people over decades. Learn about E. H. Harriman’s dramatic life and how he eventually put an empire together that resembles today’s merged UP line.
The focal period is from 1960 to 1980 with the onslaught of rail mergers. See Steam GP9s, E and F-units, Turbines, DD35, DD40s, U50s, SD24 and SD45s and many others with passenger and freights
This is one section of a long production on UP in WWII and into the diesel era. These scenes were filmed by the late George Barnes and the late John Petros. For more on the rest of the video see below.
To quote Trains magazine, “In Union Pacific Vintage West, we get a comprehensive overview of the Union Pacific’s history, motive power and operating style. Filmed by 14 different photographers, the footage is extensive and interesting. In all… a real treat”

The Original UP filmed in 8 states over a 50 year period. The whole movie is available at our website www.cspmovies.com
A nother very very Cool video 👍👍👍👍👍 an that's a lot of different switchers ....an the jeeps look good Gray an yellow. 👍👍👍👍👍
We agree joshjones, UP switchers do look good in that paint scheme. UP had so many unique locomotives, they always kept us guessing.
During WW II, ALCO built road switchers for the US Army, including some special.models for the southern Lend-Lease support from Iran up into.the USSR.
11:12 Wow, what a consist! 😮
How about all the "B" s and rare models in that one! What a "Show Stopper"! Thanks for highlighting it!
What an informative video.
Both of our Union Pacific movies cover 50 years on the UP in 8 states. There is so much great history with this railroad. We think they were much more interesting
in the 1950's-1980's!
Work for up 30 years a wonderful place to work Track Inspector
8:11 THe Union Pacific train could possibly be in 1977 for I see 2 International Harvester axial flow combines that IH introduced in 1977
Thanks generationll, this kind of inside info helps everyone to put the time frame into perspective. Especially, since many of our movies
span 50 years sometimes it is hard to get a marker on the time! We appreciate your knowledge and input!
@@charlessmileyvideos Your welcome
Did you guys ever catch the ALCO C855?
ALCO-C855, not sure that we have that one on film. We can check are archives, but Alco's were hard to find in general on film and especially video!
@@charlessmileyvideos I see. It would be so lovely to see the C855 on the internet again.❤️ Can I use a minor bit of footage?🥺 I partially focus on quality updates on old footage cuz I love vintage and my channel is anti-monetary.☺️ (You can look yourself if you have your doubts.😁) A fan channel you could say and I love vintage train videos.♥️
@@ALCO-C855-fan Sure, can you please just give credit to Charles Smiley Videos!
I wish the gas turbine locomotives were still around.
The turbines had one problem, noise, and sucked fuel as fast as a colander drains water in the kitchen. Amtrak tried a few turbine-powered sets, but between the fuel and maintenance costs, they were short-lived.
@@thomasboese3793 You are right! They used as much fuel sitting in the siding, as they did on the mainline!
😊
Thanks railyardfilms, have a super weekend!
@charlessmileyvideos will do
