It’s the transition era on the Pennsylvania Railroads famed Middle Division where Ben Young Jr shot crisp 16mm film in the 1950s, catching steam and diesel action. He also hit Altoona and Horseshoe Curve, and strayed up to the Columbus-Sandusky Ohio line to catch operations on “The Standard Railroad of the World”.

Featured power includes M-1 class 4-8-2s, I-1 class 2-10-0s, J-1 class 2-10-4s, H-9/10 class 2-8-0s, and diesels by EMD, Alco, and Baldwin. We also get a 1940s segment on Horseshoe Curve which is all steam.
