  1. Mwdonoughue

    This DVD covers mostly diesel-powered freight and passenger trains operated by both of these railroads during the 1970s, but it also includes some special passenger trains pulled by steam in the region.

    If classic railroading is what you wan and love, this is for you, Witness the WM and B&O when they were still before the Chessie merger. See all the older hood and new hood diesels of the time.
