I really enjoyed this segment of the Kantner collection, so many great diesels of that era......SD45's, C628's (especially the LV 630 unit), and other Alco's and EMD's and early GE's. Great videos, thanks.

This Soo Line fan has a soft spot for LV and EL. Great sound dubbing on these videos.

Are any of these scenes with actual audio or is it mostly or all dubbed over sound effects?

[@keatonsparksvideoproductions]

the narrator sounds like he smokes 60 packs a day

[@deannedoorn3435]

There was a train in the intro that was REALLY wobbling.

[@hyperu2]

You can really tell when the film quality went to shit.
