Video

Thank you very much for a really great video I'm a long time D&H fan since the 80's

Great video of a lost time., thanks for presentation, from Germany

wish they had more documentation and photos of the billerica shops

👍

CP 4711 , then MCCR 71 was bought by Chemin de Fer Sartigan up in Quebec to be used on future expansion on their rail coverage in 2024.

How can there be a New England now, without the B&M???

Great footage! It is excellent that this historic material has been saved.

A 16mm sound RR film GEM ! THANKS

My great uncle George Allen was an engineer on the Challengers out of Binghamton. Loved hearing his stories!,and got to ride on a diesel switcher with him before he retired in the 70's after nearly 50 years on the D&H.......

just a great video

The 4-8-4 looks like a FEF-3

Thanks for post ❗❗enjoyed every scene, MSP had #9r.r.1949...reminds me of home...🥶from MN

I'm so glad I found this channel with the help of CZcams algorithm.👍

I'm very mad at the Delaware and Hudson they were very mean to steam they should have preserved 20 steam engines or more but they just wanted to scrap all there steam except some tenders and a replica of the strawbridge lion even the Lehigh valley was going to preserve 1 steam engine which was a 4-8-4 I forget the town's name but they didn't want it so it got scrapped there is a rumor that the Lehigh valley had a steam engine go to the world fair which was a 4-4-2 1279 I think it's still alive of today but the Delaware and Hudson could have at least preserve their k-62 there 2-8-0 4-6-6-4 they could have preserved at least a lot of other challengers and they would have been really famous and maybe one of them could have dressed up as 3985 or just did excursions

I love the sound of those CP Alco/MLW units. Thanks excellent video 😊👍

Ahh... the old classic steam engines

This is by far THE BEST New Haven video ever. Grainy? Got to be kidding? So many classic and iconic views it is hard to count. Most people think of the New Haven as 4 track mains, triangular catenary, Hell Gate, Cos Cob, commuters, etc. But this video depicts a Hard-Working railroad doing what it does best, and that is moving people and freight. This video shows post-WWII America and an aggressive New Haven RR answering the demand of a growing nation. Great to see those healthy Maybrook freights speeding perishables and goods eastward, strings of 40-foot boxcars - and those newly manuf. tractors on flats. Just delivered EP-5s, glossy paint PAs and hard-working wartime DLs and FMs. Many views of iconic New Haven locations such as those smooth curves at Boston Switch, classy Narragansett Park, Seekonk Draw, Northrop hump and those gorgeous, big blade NH semaphores. Sad to see them go. This was truly the New Haven's last great era. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Wonderful stuff!!

Question for D&H steam experts: on the rebuilt 0-8-8-0s with no visible sand domes, where was the sand carried and where were the ports for loading it? They sure must have needed it in helper service.And how did it get it in front of the drivers? Gravity or compressed air?

Do you plan to add an SSL certificate to the NMRO website anytime soon?

Thanks, Skipper!!

The D&H C420 solo on SPBA on the Conn River is GOLD!

So the twin lines are the same track that use to run through Carbondale before they dug up the one in the mid 1980s.

Wish you had some footage of the Clarendon & Pittsford.

Thank you very much for these pieces of History, although the Providence that I grew up in being born in 1997 is very different from then, it's cool to see how the city looked and the functioning of the crook point bridge.

Was hoping for some period footage of the Chester Depot. Hard to believe the photographer didn't capture any covering that section of rail. I travel route 103 when I head back north to visit family. Was easy to recognize a lot of the terrain and crossing even though the film is ~70 years old. 6:35 Middlebury is where I went to high school. Grew up in Weybridge which is the next town northwest. Really enjoyed this video.

This should qualify as hi speed rail!

Where is the big trestle at 28:41?

Hard to believe B&M ran trains large enough to have 8 loco consists. Nice video.

So much of this footage is so out of focus that it is unwatchable.

Great footage, thanks for sharing!

At 1:51-1:56, what the....?

Great footage, but the soundtrack is waaay too somber. Something more upbeat would be more suitable, perhaps some jazz from the era the film was taken.

Amazing footage! thanks for sharing!

Nice. Just like the one's that Disney ran around Griffith park in LA

What year did green mountain railroad used the Fred rear train device

absolute gold, thank you for sharing!

That was cool.

cousin brucie As a10year kid we used to spend vacations on Lake Champlain. and i would lie in my bed and watch the 4-8-4s northerns come up the lake on the way to Montreal. fire boxes open firmen shoveling coal, no stokers in those days, During the day i'd put my pennies or nickels on the tracks. I can still hear the whistle of the locos coming thru the rock cut just north of Dresden station. Standing 15 feet away from 80 in drivers was impressive .

This footage is priceless!

So cool to see cars that are free of graffiti…. Not sure what’s going on in 2022 but rolling stock looks like 3rd works ass covered with insane pathetic graffiti….

Wow, that track at 42:13!!! 😧

Love this. Well done! Simple but effective.

Like taking a time machine to a better time for railroads. Thanks!!

Still stupid how Guilford got rid of all the old B&M GP38 and GP40-2s which were newer the Conrail GP40s they ended up with.
