Nice job capturing GCRY's early years. Amazing how much things changed then and now on that railroad. Quick question, what is the name of the music you were playing in the video?

This song adds to the nostalgia of watching this video, as it existed back then.

@wkaemena I thought that song dated back to 1987.
