Thanks for sharing these amazing videos! Must be kind of sad to look at railroads today after all your wonderful experiences back in the day. Sadly time marches on.
I just found your channel and I subscribed. I enjoy watching older videos from different areas of the country as I am from Southern California again I thank you
You really made my day ! thanks for this great video, that i have never seen before. Good quality , 18 mm ?, and lots of spots filmed around the facilities at Sayre PA, Now i found a dvd, when searching the web, made by Mark I Videos - Memories of the LEHIGH VALLEY - Volumes 1 and 2 - DVD ; is this video the same ? and yes i subscribed .
This was all shot by my father. I think the early stuff was 8mm and the later stuff was 16mm. My dad sold these as DVD's for a few years. He also allowed others to take bits and pieces to resell. No idea if the Mark I stuff is related.
N&W train came into the LV yard with N&W power and caboose. The train was going to continue on the Lehigh Valley using the N&W power. While in the Buffalo area LV yard, the N&W train picked up a block of freight with a LV caboose on the rear, since the train would continue east with a LV crew. It would be quicker to just leave the N&W caboose in the middle of the train rather than setting it out in Buffalo.
Priceless footage! Thank you very much. I get to relive a time of my life by watching this.
In much appreciation this was.
Thank you most kindly...

Odessa bridge long gone.
Why was a caboose in the middle of the train and another on the end? Anyone know?
