[@WhyAyeMann]

I wholeheartedly LOL'd at 1:15 "TAKE THAT OIL ELECTRIC"

[@southernpacific4346]

the 2-8-8-0 at 2:15 is my favorite. This looks really good. The sounds of that 2-8-8-0 are amazing.

I'm glad to see these films produced, I knew George very well, I use to talk to him via phone every first of the month. I met him through his very best friend Art Acker they both were in the club called the Iron Horse Ramblers. I saw these films a lot through the years. Now question, will you be producing the films of the Pennsylvania Railroad Schuylkill Valley Line? If so, the engineer that's operating the train coming into Birdsboro, PA. is Eddy Franks. Take care,Leonard F. Shaner, Jr.Pottstown, PA.

+Conrail6370 . George's PRR film of the Reading area is in this DVD (Reading Volume 2). However, he also shot some PRR Ore trains and a little bit of Reading steam in a Cinemascope format. That footage is in "Classic Pennsy Widescreen" and these is a preview of it in my channel. -Jim Herron

George also shot a lot of Trolley film too, from all over.

[@LeonardFShanerJR]

I was friends with him for close to 25 years, before his passing.

[@herronrailvideo1169]

+Conrail6370 Yes he did and those films are in our DVD "Singing Wire Vol. 1", Traction in Pennsylvania. -JH

The Glory Days of Reading Railroad Steam

[@Voucher765]

At least it is pure luck that we still have one T1 still running

[@hoscalereadingrailroadhobb6314]

Reading never owned Baldwin AS-616's (a Baldwin AS-16 with 6 axleed trucks), they only had Baldwin AS-16's (with four axled trucks).

[@MrTrashcan1]

The Baldwins were AS16, not AS616.

I bet the w in that guy's name stands for "Washington"
