Nice vid, but turn down tht damn Gee-Tar music which intersperses your narration. If one has the colume set to understand the narration, he is then blasted out of his seat by the LOUD music !

This reminds me of going through Camden every day on the Patco train with all the old dilapidated buildings right before it turns into a subway and eventually goes over the Ben Franklin bridge.

I can only hope that some of those historic spots remain weeds and factories with boarded windows, which preserves our past. I love looking at them while on the train. Many are old machine shops that my father used to visit as a tool and die salesman.

I could not find the former Pennsylvania railyard on any historic aerials. But there was one there facing North.

As a native Philadelphia resident I'm a bit embarrassed by the conditions VIEWED from the train.. It doesn't show HOW Great OUR city is to travellers... I'm Happy for your showing our history of positive factories an beautiful 🎶 to color our present looks... Thankyou For Sharing ✌

Thanks for a great presentation. I was raised a couple of blocks above North Philly Station and your video brought back memories of a bygone era.

This is. why intelligent ppl are resented...u remind those that think that what is a eyesore was the center of industrialization,.wealth progress....the blight and crime ofa N Philly wasn't caused by current residence....but the change from steam and dorsal to interstates...and the greed of corporations looking for cheaper labor over seas..thanks...I'm one of those that sees the shells of Garment Square,,Brewery town Swamp poodle Kensington Frankford...and with ignorance understand what was...

Excellent filming and information. I've watched your other videos also and found them quite enjoyable. Very good choice of background music also. One sad note however is the graffiti, on almost everything. As you noted in one of your other films, riding the Northeast Corridor into the city is not the most impressive experience.
