    I keep coming back to your videos. Just amazing in their realism and historical accuracy. Helps bring the Curve in its heyday a lot more clarity, both literally and figuratively. Damn fine work.

    Nice graphics. Almost looked like a colorized old film reel. Just one nit to pick though: Pennsylvania Railroad was unique, some would say peculiar, in the use of first generation diesels. As Don Ball Jr. noted in The Pennsylvania Railroad 1940's-1950's, Page 144, the PRR didn't mix diesel types even from the same builder. So your EMD F unit lashups of F3 and F7 diesels would not have been used in this manner. David R. Sweetland wrote, in the Introduction to Robert J. Yanosey's Pennsy Diesel Years, Vol. 3 (Page 3), that this practice of matching diesel classes continued until 1962!

    Very nice job. I like how you put the fictional FG-1 in the video. It's such an amazing engine.

    What's with the constant dynamo sound? its like there's a locomotive idling right behind the camera.

    • @jcalmx

      Because there is. There used to be a siding to a small coal mine branch right on hsc. There is an engine sitting behind the camera 🤣

    Imagine what it’d be like if LIRR Steam Engines ran on the PRR Horseshoe Curve too!

    • @RRose-ie8oh
      @RRose-ie8oh ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The casual observer probably wouldn't notice as all Long Island steam locomotives at this time were PRR models in the H, G and K classes. On the other hand, LIRR ran north on its namesake island and the connection with the PRR was through Penn Station New York; strictly electrified territory. A LIRR steam engine would have to be towed with no fire through that area.

    The first train at 0:20, did some really go by the curve that fast?

    • @MiddletownBranchProd.
      @MiddletownBranchProd. 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Possible, seeing as the curve is banked, but likely not.

    How many trains a day did HSC see at that time? Do we know? This seems like the activity of several hours compressed down to something reasonable for youtube.

    • @jcalmx
      @jcalmx  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      at this time. HSC had about 250 - 300 trains a day
