The year was 1933, the year the Reading Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad PRR consolidated their seashore train service from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. The film starts out at the old PRR Atlantic City terminal at South Carolina Avenue and what later became Bacharach Boulevard, after the train tracks were removed and that terminal was torn down. Note the trolley tracks and trolley wire on South Carolina Avenue. That was the Central Passenger Railway Company line to the Venice Park section of Atlantic City. Train service was consolidated to the Reading Railroad terminal at Arkansas and Atlantic Avenues in 1933, which we see next in the film. Open 'summer' trolleys of the Atlantic City & Shore Railroad Company can be seen running on Atlantic Ave. The car stop at Arkansas Avenue in front of the P-RSL {ex-Reading} terminal was a major boarding location. The A C & S stationed a street supervisor at that location. The trolley seen at 4:09 on the time bar shows a trolley heading Downbeach to Douglas Avenue in Margate. The concrete trolley boarding island platform at Arkansas Avenue can be seen in front of the train terminal. Note the illuminated caution light on it to warn motorists. It was rare for Atlantic City to have fixed, raised car stop platforms. Most car stops had chains attached to posts which were portable and could be moved out of the way for parades. Open 'summer' trolleys operated in Atlantic City until 1938, when all the remaining ones were scrapped and burned in 1939. The author of a book on the history of Atlantic City, Vicky Gold Levy, whom I helped and contributed material for her book, gave me a VHS copy of this film many years ago. I have lived in Atlantic City for seventy of my years and am a transportation historian. I have an enormous collection of memorabilia, which includes scale models of the Atlantic City trolleys. That includes the open 'summer' cars. Convention special trains were regularly operated to Atlantic City. However, upon very close and careful examination of what's in the background, I'm willing to admit the Honeywell and Ever Ready convention trains were not in Atlantic City. It appears the Hollywood movie studio, Warner Brothers in September of 1933 for the movie "Convention City", made up those banners that were hung on the sides of the coaches. All the people acting drunk and having a good time were obviously extras. And they obviously made up and hung the Atlantic City station sign too. So I'll eat crow....lol..... www.imdb.com/title/tt0023906/fullcredits?ref_=ttloc_ql_1 www.imdb.com/title/tt0023906/trivia?ref_=ttspec_ql_trv_1

The first half of this video is really fascinating just to think that the mass produced automobile was still relatively new and how well society quickly adapted to them versus 30 years prior where there was only the train and horse and buggy. Also, notice the electric trolley car which was also relatively new as well as electricity. Also fascinating how the first half was shot around the time of the great depression yet in this video the economy looks to be robust. Many people still had a job back then. Also, this was about 10 years before Hitler and WWII. It was amazing how fast things were changing here in the US as well as around the world. I've seen changes in my lifetime over the last 40 years but nothing like the early twentieth century. Videos like this are very very historical and will continue to be for many many generations to come. We cannot begin to appreciate our future if we don't appreciate the past.

1:52 This is a street side view of the Atlantic City Station. Note how the train platforms terminate at the back of the building. 5:54 This is Santa Fe's "La Grande" station (located at 2nd St. and S. Santa Fe Ave. in LA) standing in for the track side view of the Atlantic City Station. Originally, I mistakenly thought this was "Central" station. There are several hints for the identification: (1) Elevated roadway seen at the back is the 1st Street Viaduct with its distinct architecture (2) Looming over the back are giant natural gas holding tanks seen in many movies. (3) The National Ice and Cold Storage ice making plant (4) The architecture of the platforms Note how the train platforms are parallel to the station. A technical inconsistency with the street side view. The viaduct is only the feature that still exists. The natural gas holding tanks were removed by the 1960s. The ice plant was sold off in the 1940s and removed sometime later. The train station was heavily damaged by the March 10, 1933 Long Beach earthquake. It was partially demolished at that time. In 1939 it was closed and rail traffic moved to the new Union Station. It was finally demolished in 1946.

0:48 The locomotive on the arriving passenger train is equipped with a Belpaire firebox and a keystone number plate on the front of its smokebox: classic Pennsylvania Railroad. The PRR and Reading Railroad pooled their locomotive power in the operation of the jointly-owned P-RSL. 4:54 The remainder of the film from this point on was definitely NOT taken in Atlantic City, New Jersey despite what the sign seen at 6:18 reads. The car at 7:51 has "SANTA FE" on its lettering board blacked out. This coupled (sorry, couldn't resist) with the large numbers on the locomotive's tank assuredly makes this an Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway consist. Needless to say, the AT&SF didn't run anywhere near New Jersey.

@@Helen-hy3gv The Old Bus station was a P.R.R. station before the Expressway was built into Atlantic City in '65. Before that, the original P.R.R. station was at Atlantic Ave between Missouri and Arkansas until the 1950s when Columbus Park was built and the P.R.R. station was moved behind Arctic Ave. There was also a train station at the end of what is now Bacharach Blvd between City Hall and North Carolina Ave. Atlantic City used to be criss-crossed with rail... down Bacharach Blvd, Virginia Ave, Georgia Ave down to the convention center. The first scene is probably Arctic Ave, which cut the train station/yards in half with a series of crossings. The large cylindrical gas tank in the distance is near the modern railroad station.

I wish we could get a more specific date for the videos, at least to the year. That’s the only thing that isn’t perfect about this channel. Otherwise, it’s flawless at what it does! 👍

These shots were filmed for a Warner Brothers movie called, "Convention City" in September of 1933. Not all of the scenes were in Atlantic City. The 'fake' convention trains were filmed in Los Angeles.

Everyone is dressed in their finest attire. I guess coming outside back then was a true luxury
