Great operations video! Glad to see these short lines alive and kicking. Even with the latest new tech locomotives, you can beat the “ rugged character” of these Alcos in a perfectly matched paint job!

What is that sound @18:39
@Joe-d7m6kАй бұрын
Probably, the wheel flanges squeaking going around the curved leg of the switch .

During WW2 and the early 1950's the W&P used to see 40 trains a day between Pittsburgh and Wheeling. It was down to two trains each way plus local industrial switcher run in the mid 1980's when CSX decided to abandon it west of Washington PA. The decline of the W&P is a classic example of the decline of industry in the Pittsburgh region. 😔

I love the banter between engineer and brakeman at about 35:00-38:00. Cool to see them having fun for a small photo/video op next to the station. It looked real nice, made me feel like I was in 1950 and see it in real time.

That’s just a unique ALCO sound. It brings back fond memories of the RS1 that we had on the New Hope & Ivyland back in the 1970’s.

it's good to see LA&L 72 return into operation condition once again, probably the first time seeing the Alco S-2 in action ever since it was retired back in 2021, and then being part of the RGVM. oh and nice job on the video. 🙂👍

LA&L #72 returns. She runs on her own power once more since she was donated in November 2023. WB to operation LA&L #72. She's a nice diesel electric locomotive.
