  • Some video clips recorded spring 1984 on the north end of the Clinchfield. See locomotives from L&N, Family Lines and Seaboard System. Note: I do not own the video tape, this is uploaded for entertainment use.

    My first model train was this engine. I wish it was still running on the train tracks today not just in the 1980’s.

    I just bought a photo book of Central Florida's bone valley phosphate operations during the early 80s. It's crazy how many SCL trains operated their on a daily basis. There was something like 20 active mines and 14 processing plants during the peak of production during the 80s. Rail activity still takes place but it's only a fraction of what it once was. There's only 3 mines life, 2 which have rail operations and 3 processing plants. Really wish I could have been alive to see it at it's peak.

      Seaboard era videos are difficult to find especially since that railroad name was short lived (1983-1986). Many railfans, including myself, took 35mm photos. Not many railfans used video cameras during that era.
