We explore the Grand Trunk’s Berlin Subdivision in New Hampshire. This historic footage was shot in the last four years of GT/CN ownership.

The daily turn, Train 398 to the Central Vermont interchange, in an interesting job.

This is a rare mileage cab ride! Join us in 1994 for a trip around the Kansas City Terminal Railway. Our ride is a CNW SD-18 and from that perch we hit all the highlights and see quite a few trains pass by as we travel the KCT.
This program covers the years 1964-1979 along the former Nickel Plate Road from Buffalo to Ft. Wayne (New Haven). Filmed by N&W employee Edward Durnwald, this program is a diesel fan’s Dream. Not only are the varied lash-ups of EMD, Alco and GE units nice, but the many paint schemes and one-of-a-kind units must be seen to be believed.
We see the NKP from 1950 to 1964, beginning in its hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. The action then moves to southeastern Ohio on the former Wheeling and Lake Erie in the Coshocton and Adena areas, before ending up at Conneaut, Ohio, with a cab ride side trip to Buffalo. Vintage steam and diesel.
