  • This is my Grandfather Pete Small's video footage of classic Pennsylvania Railroad taken at the horseshoe curve in Altoona, PA, Harrisburg, PA and beyond. Aerotrain on the horseshoe curve. Central New Jersey 774 camelback fan trip, GG1s, Pennsy Steam, vintage diesels, great footage.

    Those big decapods were really the backbone of the railroad in my opinion.

    Thanks so much for sharing. This is swell! So many classic and iconic trains! Unusual Pennsy caboose and Lima (perhaps?) Diesel switcher at 2:10.

    At 8:30 a Great Northern 'Great Dome' car. I'm sure the car was brand new and being shipped from Budd, Red Lion plant near Philly. All these years we believed "Dome cars can't be run in the east because of clearances" yet here's proof that even the largest of them could fit in at least some of PRR's tunnels of that time (before increasing clearances for auto racks and hi-cubes).

    I like the vintage motive power that shows up. Only the Pennsy could offer up such diversity.
    Thanks for posting.

    The CNJ footage at 3:30 appears to have been shot at Winslow Junction during a railfan excursion.

    That was excellent, especially with the Alcos & the goofy looking GM Train of Tommorrow! I'm guessing that was around Altoona/Horseshoe curve area.
