    "Looks" like Don Cornelius giving the news! 3:48

    By the way, I love the Penn Central SW1 at the 0:15 mark of this video, these switchers, in my opinion, did not get the attention they deserved for the work they performed. Along with the GE 44 Toners. Thank you for sharing

    Excellent, Excellent footage, regardless of where it is or the lack of audio, it’s Penn Central, excellent find and discovery as well. Thank you for sharing

      Thank you very much, I definitely thought it was worth saving not a whole ton of Penn Central out there, and, of course, most of the film at that time was silent.

    Not all of Penn Central's mainline track was cruddy, according to the now well-known film the railroad made in 1974 requesting more funding. This clip is an example, because those Penn Central trains were flying through there.

    Whereabouts was this train footage filmed as well as the news footage back in '74?

      Unfortunately, I'm not sure. I'm still doing research on this one. I purchased this footage a few months ago from someone who was unable to play it or scan due to how badly the film was damaged.
