I find American trains fascinating. The pure brute size and the unrefined style. I am an odd Chesapeake & Ohio RR fan all the way from South Africa and why? While I studied engineering at Stellenbosch University, I found the book C&O Power in the library. I was hooked for life. The 2666 Allegheny is absolutely awesome. Wish I could travel to the states and just stand next to one which would be in some museum.
Pretty cool that some places are recognizable. Forest Hills, Mineola, Long Island city. Thanks for the video.
Nice to see my home Railroad before I was born
The least you could do here is give proper credit. This is a part of item 012, Pennsylvania Glory Volume 1 which is available on DVD from Herron Rail Video. The entire show is much longer and covers other parts of the PRR eastern lines. It was filmed entirely by Ben Young, Jr and produced with his co-operation.I di the production and it is narrated by Ralph E. Morse. - Jim Herron
Hi Mr. Herron. My apologies on the matter. Back when I first put this up, I had thought I had at least given credit to "Herron Rail Video." I will add it to the caption shortly.
they should have preserved more of those long island steamers
Ben Lahrman HOW DID YOU GET THAT WALL PAPER FOR YOUR A COUNT!??!!?!!
Two G5s locos still exist. Attempts to rebuild them have failed miserably. I believe one of them is still on display covered with pigeon crap at Eisenhower Park. The other is in a new LIRR museum at Hicksville.
What a great trip down memory lane this was for me. I moved from Bay Ridge Brooklyn to Hicksville in 62 and I remember the ground level Hicksville station. Only wished I was around to see the steamers then in the 50s. During the 60s I would press my face against the LIRR window glass to suck in all the sights of Sunnyside yard and the equiptment stored there. I played on engine 39 when it was stored at Salisbury / Eisenhower park as an amusement for kids and train buffs. Love seeing these films...I can almost smell the smoke, the creosoted ties and feel the sounds of these great beasts.
I'd love to see CSX (PRR successor) restore a GG-1 to run on the NEC. If UP can restore a Big Boy, I don't see why CSX, or someone else, can't functionally-restore a GG-1 electric.
The Norfolk Southern railway is actually what operates most of the former Pennsylvania railway's lines and routes. But yeah, It would be great if they restored one to operating condition. I would really love seeing one running the rails again. Also, I apologize if the first part of this comment sounded a little hurtful, I was just pointing something out.
@@NostalgiaFreak1996 Not a problem, I took no offense. Thanks for the correction. 🙂
A GG1 would be very difficult to operate today. The type of electricity the GG1 ran on is no longer used anywhere, and all of the transformers were removed from all of the surviving GG1s.
We still have old Pennsylvania railroad signals still in service but some have already been replaced my color light signals and trilight signals
Sorta sad that I haven't found any footage of the Long Beach Branch.
Well done! Thanks. My brother and I were train watching near New Hyde Park one afternoon and saw the first Alcon diesel locomotive. Most likely in 1953 or 54.
Alco. American Locomotive Company.
Who was the narrator on this original production? I always did like his voice. Nice baritone. 🙂
According to the comment left by Herron Rail Video, a man by the name of Ralph E. Morse narrated this.
In 199 years they need to add the old trains back because we.nascent seen them kinda sad
Think about the fact that the cameramen are either extremely old or are long dead by now. Just let that sink in.
4:23 is mineola
Making that turn pretty fast. They probably sped up the film.
How's the funding going? I frequent Strasburg often and had no idea 39 was scheduled for a 45 year operating lease at Strasburg! That will be awesome.
I've heard they've done a little work and raised almost 200,000 dollars.
STOP POSTING ABOUT 4:18 I'M TIRED OF SEEING IT. MY FRIENDS ON TIKTOK SEND ME 4:18, ON DISCORD ITS 4:18. I WAS IN, A SERVER, RIGHT? AND ALL OF THE CHANNELS WERE JUST 4:18 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
The Pennsylvania reading seashore lines out of Philadelphia.
LIRR 39: I’ll be back!
I love the MU car trains!
They should save both 39 and 35!
What’s the next show that has Steam related?
Steam around New York 1984-2004!
Like old lirr
Me too
I’m sorry I was born to late.
Judging from the make and models of automobiles in the video I would take this to have been filmed in the late 40's or early 1950's.
6:09 Seeing steam under catenary wires is something that you won’t see today. And look at all those people roaming about! That would never happen in sunnyside yard today 😂
Port Washington Branch, jumping off the trestle just west of Douglaston, to swim in Little Neck Bay the 50’s
Hey
I used to go to Branford in New Haven back in the early 70s and I did not know that they had sponsored that trip on October 16th 1955 when I was one day old! I rolled down the Long Island back in the early 70s. behind Alco. power..GG1 s were awesome..
