This Is Great Watching The illinois Central Remastered As We Pass Through Almost 40 Years of History On illinois Central With 80 2-8-4 Berkshire Types With The Green Diamond The illinois Central was known 😊😊😊🚂🚂🚂
Can't get enough of that old footage!
The Illinois Central rr had an impressive roster of steam power, I really enjoy viewing this footage of the IC steam & diesel engines. It's a true shame however that the Illinois Central rr didn't preserve one example of their 2600 class 4-8-2 locomotives for public display, the 2600 series were among the heaviest 4-8-2 types ever built in the USA. I also wish that the IC had preserved one of their Berkshire 2-8-4 type locomotives for display as well.
I live in Kankakee, and believe me the way things look back then are complete different then the way things look today.
It’s a pleasure to not see any crappy Graffiti........
amen, back when people were still half decent
This is without a doubt the most realistic and detailed HO train layout ever! Very well done!!
This is real footage from the 60s and 70s not a layout
@@RailsOfTheMidwest Are you sure?! It looks real to me!
@@RailsOfTheMidwest pretty sure he's joking
What great bright photography, thanks.
My Road being from Grenada Mississippi moving to Chicago I grew up in the IC's twilight years.
I grew up next to the ICG mainline in Brookhaven Mississippi. I love this old footage!
My father and his father worked for the Illinois Central in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and in McComb, Mississippi.
Great Images of the Human Creative processes at their Height's. It's all in the Materials of the Ground not too tampered with to form the ART.
Many thanks to all involved in providing these Video's.
Good to see the A-1 class 2-8-4s in action!
5:10 would be a huge ordeal nowadays! Just wow is all I have, wish I grew up during the steam era to see and hear those fire breathing monsters roar down the track!
As it should be, carcinogens in our drinking water, food and air are no joke.
Raised within a mile of the. Baton Rouge yard. Saw it all in the 50s and 60s. Big R. Pierre Part LA.
My great grandfather worked for them after the war
The Corwith Yards at 47th and Archer dwarf the Markham yards. Built around the same time too.
A New York Central 4-6-4 is shown pulling a passenger train at 1:56; the NYC had trackage rights over the ICRR on some routes near Chicago.
Yes. I had just started grammar school during the Korean War. We lived on the South Side, and passenger trains from NYC subs L S & M S and MC entered Chicago on the IC's lakefront/suburban trackage. It was exiting as a little kid to see a steam engine go by with a train. We went downtown on the IC electric Suburban Service, even though my father complained that it was a dime more than going on the Elevated! In 1953 all NYC passenger service went into the LaSalle Street Station. At the old IC depot on 12th Street and Michigan, there were signs for Illinois Central, Michigan Central, Lake Shore and Michigan, and Big Four; even though the Big Four had Merged with NYC decades before. Fond memories.
That was the James Whitcomb Riley passenger train that ran from Indianapolis to Chicago via Kankakee over the big four trackage
I remember the 'City' hosting a music festival honoring the "City of New Orleans.' Arlo Guthrie was the Guest of Honor, and we had a very good turnout for the event. As a Kankakee City police officer, I was able to spend a lot of time with the entertainers....... Fun Times!! - Ron Riml, Boothbay Harbor, ME.
Thanks for watching, and Thank-you for your service!
Pure awesomeness.
Great video!
Absolutely love it! Noticed a lot of front of train/end of train footage with middle edited out. Was there a reason for that? Would love to see the whole trains, if the footage is there and restorable.
I wish I would have been born 30 years earlier, I'm 30 minutes from Centralia.
At 0:25 is Centralia Illinois, last run of the city of miami, may 1st 1971
At 0:25 is the last northbound run of the city of miami at Centralia Illinois
Just think, on the Illinois Central steam-powered freights had a speed limit of 50mph. Diesel streamliners could do 100 in certain locations!! Now THAT'S biig time railroading!
Wig Wag at 2:05
Hey, you left out the Last Train to Clarksville. And the Wabash Cannonball.
The 2-8-4 at about 2:55's sounds sound like they were recorded off of the Pere Marquette 1225.
+Michigan Rail Productions
Maybe some of it's real sound.
More like 587!
For some I like that intro music it's hecka funny
Same I do too.
Amazing
Steam and Diesel on Illinois Central.
I found one of the original Illinois Central railroad spikes from 1940
6:02 Good morning America, how are you?
wildchicken007 _Im the train they call the City of New Orleans_
I’ll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.
“Don’t you know me? I’m your native son.”
The train pulls out of Kankakee and rolls along past houses farms and fields.
This train’s got the disappearing railroad blues
I have the original Illinois Central railroad spike
I've got some of this footage on VHS and I liked the music soundtrack better than this one. Is the original version soundtrack on the blue ray ? Just asking. Have a great day everyone.
Yes we have the original music on the BLURAY & DVD that we sell!
May i ask what the intro music intro is?
not Jackson Mississippi, that's Macomb Mississippi
They Were Number 8034
waved at caboose.
Train CM-1? What ever happened to them there "trains that had no name" in that there old hippie railroad jingle? Hee-haw!
@ 5:28 - looked like a waste of fuel.
David Barnett They didn't care back in the day. Fuel was cheap.
fuel spills were much easier to handle before the EPA stuck their noses into everything
Yeah, just wipe it up in an old towel and squeeze into your there pickup truck!
@MusicMadMaurice piss off...
A worthless refuel er EPA spill.........
