God I miss those turbo-trains. True, they did have more than their share of mechanical problems, but when they ran, they were a smooth, quiet, comfortable, and fast ride.

Wonderful video. Recalls a couple of things. NYS spent a gazillion dollars on clearance work to induce GM to build a new vehicle(forgot the name) there. GM eventually pulled out, closed the plant and NYS was the loser in the deal. The SPV-2000 was supposed to be Budd's new version of the reliable (and still running in some places) RDC. The SPV-2000 was apparently as reliable as a Yugo car and was ditched by the railroads that bought them. I remember seeing a lineup of SPV-2000s on a storage track (waiting to go to the scrappers) at Harmon decades ago.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I did not know NYS got burnt on the GM deal. They definitely got burnt on the Turbo rebuild program (which is a shame). On the SPV thing, I wonder why they didn't gut the engines and run those as coaches. Certainly they could have had a long life span as coaches, perhaps it wasn't economically feasible to do so.

@@1990sRailfan The Danbury Railway Museum still has an SPV-2000. As for autoracks on the Hudson, over 50 years ago, there was a commercial for Plymouth that used a rewrite of "Sunday Will Never Be the Same," by Spanky and Our Gang as the jingle, and had footage of the newest (1969 or 1970) Plymouth models on Penn Central locomotives and autoracks along the vicinity of the Bear Mountain Bridge. The trouble is, I don't really think the Lower Hudson Valley was Mopar territory.

The Oldsmobile Silhouette was being produced in Tarrytown back then. It's because of GM that the lower Hudson division has those high arch bridges in Dobbs ferry and Hastings.

Nice the 2019 off all the fl9's have you seen her lately. Nice SPV2000 running

No, I think the last FL9 I saw was in 1998. I moved out of the area. It was in that simplified blue and silver paint scheme which matched the new P32s.
