    Great video. Brings back great memories of the old Santa Fe I remember. Even "Uncle Pete" got in on it towards the end!

    The sound effects are interesting. At time 1:23 that Santa Fe is going downhill at Bealville, which would mean extreme dynamic braking sounds. The same train is at around Edison, Calif. and is using dynamic brakes there also. Just a little FYI. It's still a very good video of my old stomping grounds, thanks for showing.

      Not being a local fan, I sometimes have to judge by what I see in the film as to what sounds to add. Popular locations like Tehachapi are easier. Thanks for watching.

    2:14 to 4:30 appears to be Port Chicago CA. Santa Fe loved using 4 axle power there up until the Kodachrome era.

    the recording you put in the beginning is one of brad miller's, train 373 CMW with 5 alco DF 12-15s in the santa susana mountains. is he well known in the states?

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  3 роки тому +1

      The track is from the album "Mister D's Machine" from 1963. I used it because I liked the unusual horn sound. I wouldn't say Brad Miller is well known today, but he probably was back at the time these recordings were published.

    I feel this excellent video needs a catalogue of locations and some known dates.
    - The first 50 or so seconds looks like the San Diego line.
    - 0:53 and 1:49 appear to be above Tunnel 5 in Martinez on the Stockton sub. The second shot is of the San Francisco Chief, almost certainly in its last year (1970 or '71) judging by the FP45 and F45 power. These might be the earliest shots in the video.
    - 1:18 is Bealville on Tehachapi Pass, and 1:36 is the same train probably at Edison at the bottom of the hill. Could be prior to to 1972.
    - 2:14 I agree with @Denniss7420 that these shots look like Port Chicago.
    - 4:32 [Not sure. Is this Pomona?] 1972 or later because of 'yellow bonnet' paint scheme.
    - 6:22 Tehachapi Loop aka Walong. Likely around '72 -'73 since most power is still in the older 'pinstripe' paint scheme.
    - 9:37 back to Bealville
    - 10:15 This shot is below Tunnel 2 on Tehachapi Pass, and the following shot is above Tunnel 2. Both likely at least couple years after '72 as there is a lot more of the new paint scheme.
    - 12:21 [ Not sure. This looks like the San Joaquin valley to me but might also be connected to the following shots.]
    - 12:53 (Thru 14:34) Dagget, east of Barstow, where the UP line comes in, seen on the left.
    - 14:36 (Thru 17:10) Barstow. The shots from the passenger train seem likely to be from the combined Super Chief/El Capitan as continued by Amtrak between 1971-74. (The car the camera is in seems to have a red stripe by the window for the Phase I Amtrak scheme.)
    - 17:13 [Not sure. Looks like San Joaquin Valley again, to me.]
    - 17:44 This series of shots are the San Bernadino shops environ. 1972 ish.
    - 18:16 From here on out it's various locations on Cajon Pass.
    I will try to be around to edit this if you reply with additions/corrections. :-)

    Another great film! Speaking of, how many of the films in your collection are suffering from vinegar syndrome? I'd almost imagine you've run across a few by now that were stored in less than ideal conditions before you got them.

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  3 роки тому

      None. Some damaged sprocket holes and minor color shift, but no vinegar yet. Most is Kodachrome which is much more stable than older E6 process films.

    I am in agreement in that I too appreciate you posting these for all to enjoy. Do you have any of Mojave, CA in the 70s-80s? Looking to catch details of the depot in particular for modeling purposes.

      @@fmnut I spent the summer of ‘83 there in Mojave. It was such a thrill for a fan like me to be within walking distance of the depot and hung out there daily. Great spot to catch the action if you couldn’t be on the hill itself, of course.
      I am now a couple of videos deep into your catalog and I would like to also commend you on the production quality of your content. Given the period that these films were recorded, I am impressed by the great sound they have. I suspect you knew how to record the audio in the field or are post-processing it today. It really makes for a “being there” sense without distractions and blown out audio. All that is missing is the diesel fumes and the rush of wind as they blow by! ;-)

      @@JP1 As stated in the descriptions, most of the film is not mine but from other sources, and all the film was silent. The audio is dubbed in either from contemporary commercial recordings or from my own videos. In locations with distinctive accoustics, such as Tehachapi Loop, I use sound from the same location to give it a realistic "feel". Super 8 film with sound was available from 1973 but the sound quality was abysmal.

    retired from the Santa Flush in 1984. hard to believe we let them get rid of cabooses and the rear end crew. union was a bunch of hypocrites. we cried about safety, but when they threw a 2% raise at us in 1981, we folded like a bunch of kvnts.
