The Golden Twilight of Postwar Steam - Pt1

Purchase at -- www.greenfrog.com
Part 1
The Pennsy's West End and its Neighbors

Gene Miller took superb 16mm movies of railroad steam action right after World War II. (75% in COLOR!.) Join with us as we step back over a half century to view and enjoy Part 1 of the memorable rail movies he shot mostly during the era between 1945 and 1950
with, perhaps, some scenes earlier than that of the Pennsylvania Railroad in Metro Chicago, St. Louis, Terre Haute, and the surrounding areas and its neighboring railroads.

An incredible array of steamers from the Pennsy appear in the major first part of this program, such as J-1's. T-1's, K-4's M-1A's, H Class 0-8-0's, H-6's, H-10's. Early diesels also show their stuff, such as F-3's, F-7's, as well as Baldwin Centipedes.

Many other railroad's steam and early diesels are found in Chicago, and the West End including Frisco, Alton & Southern, Terminal R.R. of St. Louis, Grand Trunk, GM&O, C&O, C&WI, DM&IR, Erie, Monon, Belt Ry, Chicago Great Western, C&NW, NYC, Wabash, and L&N.

I have this video and the narration ruins it. How many times does he have to repeat "..with a post-war pilot" or "...the DISTINCTIVE T1...". Great footage, just wish the dude would shut up.

[Kleman09]

smoke is natural to the earth. it is not as dangerous to the enviorment as the enviormentalist think so. its the exhaust from diesles and cars that are unnautural to the earth.
