Was only 4years old in 1955 when my mom tookme from Cincinnati to Louisiana to visit her family! Saw just a hint of the L&N diesel type we rode behind, in the "Hummingbird"
Its amazing to see how the area shown at 8:15 has changed.... All the trees.. so much more development... The only thing standing recognizable is the grain-tower looking thing off East Dayton Drive.
fantastic movie. rare steam and diesel double header.
At 8:53 you can see in the hazy background the grain silos off Schwerman dr. (this comment and my previous are in Fairborn)

The B&O stuff appears to be Needmore Yards in Dayton, Ohio between Needmore Rd and Wagoner Ford Road.
