Awesome! So many facets of railroading that are gone forever but the one I miss most is seeing the operator handing on train orders.

12:50 looks to be around MP 126 on the east end of town in Ashtabula 13:10 is CP 132 in Saybrook, which got reduced to intermediate block signals and the siding removed in the 1990s

Those Penn Central F units were flying. A lot of those Penn Central trains were bookin' it so SOME of the track was good. They hauled a LOT of boxcars back then.

Penn Central had everything! It was glorious!

Cards were stacked against them. Read, "The Wreck of the Penn Central" for details. From government regulation to internal corruption to unyielding unions, they just couldn't get out of the rut. Conrail did an amazing job of cleaning things up.

First time I handed up orders I thought I was going to get hit.

Looks like that flatcar derailed. Someone must’ve spotted it bouncing and alerted the crew. Then a suit shows up and a block truck.

I assume this was shot just before/after Conrail started up.

Penn Central was Doomed from beginning and the addition of the New Haven being thrown into the Merge, pretty much just sealed their fate sooner than expected

Conrail I still think would happen regardless, they had too much redundant tracks. They were in talks to merge all the way in 1957 I think, how did they still end up so bad even though they had all that time to plan
