That brought back some memories. The old journals. The rip track. No safety vests.

Within a decade the last steam would be gone, the cabooses too, and the men who worked in and maintained them, boilermakers, steam shop crews, brakemen, firemen, all redundant. If they could only have seen their future the way the number crunchers in suits did...

This is incredible footage, but I had to stop watching, the nostalgia was too overwhelming.
