Jim –
I enjoyed watching this old video of PC and early Conrail, especially where PC locos rocked back and forth so much I thought they would derail. Though Ohio and into West Virginia and then into Pennsylvania, the line is covered very well. My favorite part was watching a train traverse the Panhandle Bridge in Pittsburgh. I would recommend this video to anyone interested in 60s and 70s railroading in this area, or anyone who loves trains.
