1:43 PRR Tug Boat.The great days of Railroad Maritime operations
They really ran mixed trains like the one at 26:30, with piggybacks mixed into a passenger run? Haven't seen that before.
The Pennsy had a massive elevation program to eliminate grade crossings with rival railroads and cut down on wrecks!!
