    One of the best videos of its kind - very folksy and unprofessional - two qualities which make it wonderful. Great footage and interaction with real railroaders.

    Just found this series...my Dad was a locomotive engineer on the Jersey Central for 42 years, mostly on the Bay Head to Jersey City shore run. He did do the coal run for a few years when I was a kid. His dad ran the coal route his entire career....and met my grandmother in the hard coal region.

    Nice footage! My late Uncle worked for Jersey Central right up to when Conrail took over in the late 70's. Back then, he gave me the Lady Liberty logo from a scrapped locomotive window. I still have it in my curio cabinet.
