I love when the old radio shows and tv shows included the sponsors ads, wonderful window into the past.

Man I remember me and my PopPop would watch all these on tapes he had recorded from reruns and it's great to get to watch them again

Buster Keaton is listed as an uncredited writer on "The Railroad Station" segment. It looks to me like he wrote the Grandfather's Clock gag, which arguably generated the biggest laugh of all.
