My collection of videos of transportation subjects (mostly railroad, but also marine & other) in the waning years of the analog era before mega-mergers, intermodal replacing manifest freight, techno-toaster locomotives, and the proliferation of loser art on railroad equipment.
In those years I also managed to record some of the soon-to-disappear traditional amusement parks with their wooden roller coasters and miniature railroads. My goal is to share these experiences with those who remember them and miss them, and those who came along later and would like a glimpse of the past.

Had to correct the date year due to misreading the date code on the original file. Thanks to a Navasota resident, for noticing a detail in the video that conflicted with the earlier date.

That is old school but now they built a new bridge
That's old school now they got a bridge over
I'm trying to imagine a 1/14 remote control model of this... I suspect it would be bigger than my house
I remember going with my girlfriend’s having lots of fun & buying salt water taffy 🍬 & sugar waffles & Crystal Beach suckers for my Mom!
Pretty crisp looking footage for amateur tape. What were you shooting on/to back then?
It honestly doesn't look that different today, although the bell instead of the whistle caught me by surprise.
And I thought the Sky Streak was intense!
Wow, that year I was born
Amazing footage ...shame they replaced them for the awful morgan trains..Like the Giant Dipper at Belmont Park😢
Is the Fireman Hector Durazo?
Name of the train
Miss this place was awesome
A Long Winter’s Nap Dr. Seuss😷
This is the first time I've seen images of the SP SDP45's doing freight duty.
Love train videos from the early 90s. Maybe because I miss the SP and the Santa Fe...and I model them.
at 4 min was a very common sound I don't hear anymore. I wonder if that muffler would work on any car or only a boxer 4 lol
13:32 ex Southern Railway SD45....rebadged for Helm Leasing. Cool!
It's nice to see back then that we didn't have to look at all that nasty graffiti ugh!!
Están ahora en Mendoza, Argentina

Arbit of El Camino Resl is 35 mph ca water service😷💦💦💦😊
11:19 ofc that stupid hunk of junk is on the back lmao those things were unpredictable. 13:00 Ohhhh...that's the one that was lost at Cajon three years later...
An old PE job
Thanks for uploading this video, and I'm looking forward to watching your other videos as well. * subscribed *
What a great time to be there. The SO hauled so much lumber. Great engines, great sounds, loved those SP P-3 horns, and NO graffiti!! Wonderful video!
love those old good days, as a kid i remember crossing through the tracks and seeing those SP SD9s by sonoma its so sad how now they just sit and rot now, those were the days, love it
Grew up in this park. Great memories. I still remember the chicken that played tic tac toe. 😂
Thanks so much for UL this Fullerton Station video from 1987.
First year back to SC after taking 2 years off from college.
Whoa, look at those antique flatcars with archbar trucks and poling pockets. I hope they have evaded the scrapper's torch over the past four decades.
Love the old gons with plain bearings. Seems this region was slow to ditch plain bearings: just two counties over and nine years later I saw my first and last "wild" plain-bearinged car, a bulkhead flat.
Back in the good ol' days when Southern Pacific and DRGW were two separate entities and notably not suffering from the form of jaundice that they have been for almost three decades. (Even better if there had been no mergers or reorganizations post-1953, but at least there were more than six Class Ones to choose from).
This was before metrolink existed
Fullerton train station looks different back then.
Thankyou
No Chem trails in the sky and non if the degenerate graffiti better days.
This is a pretty neat railroad in the state of Ohio.
Blackpearlguy,That is good railroad,I appreciate so much Santa Fe.I have Santa Fe O scale layout.Good Era.!
I never get tired of watching this video of Atsf and the espee on the Tehachapi pass back in the 1980s. I rather see this than the BNSF and the UP.
One of these MUNI Vertol LRVs was featured in Nash Bridges in early 1997 at Embarcadero Station. I imagine that was near the end of their service life with MUNI.
Sd45 in SP scheme.👍Looks even better in Demo.
❤Awesome memories!!
Better days. Now if you go and record the trolley going from south hills to station square, I'm sure the cops will show up asking what youre doing. Asking for ID. Tryng to get you to jail somehow.
0:01 & 2:29 sweet engine sound
Never understood the little yellow roof beacon trend. The headlights are more visible 100% and drown it out
Former rule number one; never film next to a damn gated crossing.
I love watching the PCC’s crossing the track switches! So very cool! PWG
The good old days of YL
Great video thanks for sharing
Thanks for your great videos!
