The old and weary in its day was a fascinating railroad with the main line of the south and branch line look of the north

We had property in Livinston Manor, between Liberty and Roscoe where the road bed crossed over the little Beaverkill. My cousins and I used to sit with our feet hanging over the edge of the old bridge abutment by the river. There were still some old ripped up railroad ties with moss all over them and tons of cinder. This was in the early to mid 70's. I was too young to have had the privilege of seeing this railroad in action, but the O&W is truly a fairy-tale storybook railroad twisting and turning through hills and valleys, over bridges and rivers and through tunnels, just absolutely amazing.

Lol. My dad was there in 54. I was there in 80.

Very touching memories ..2/11 acr E troop 11/71 to 6/74.....we were all taken from our homes through the us to serve here......luckily i missed nam but nam came to me in bad kissingen being stationed with vietnam combat vets hearing first hand horrors of war........but still a beautiful time and place to be ......i sometimes wish i could go back in time and see all those that were there with me.

stunning

Wow, most of you were there long before my time. I was born in Bad Kissingen in 1982 to a German mother and a Samoan father. My mom's side of the family still lives in Schweinfurt. I also lived in a small village called Nudlingen before moving to the states when I was 12. All of these places are atleast 1,000yrs old, a lot of history and a lot of US Military history also. My father got orders for Baumholder(Straussberg Kaserne)after 3 years in the states, that would be the last area we would be stationed at in Germany. I recently looked up Straussberg Kaserne in Idar Oberstein which had been closed down since 2008-2009, brought back alot of memories.

I was an MP assigned to A-1-1, guarding the hawks up on the mountain, from '78-79. I lived off-post "on the economy", and had lots of memories there. It was a beautiful place.

Was there from Sept 76 to Sept 79 A1/1 Air aDefense Artillery names James Prescott spe c4 James Prescott

Wow! Southwoods, Monticello. Raced the womens class in the early 70’s, Honda Elsinore 125 and 175 amateur with the guys on a Can-Am. What a tank that bike was! Thanks for the memories! Evelyn 24X

This is an awesome video.I grew up right next to the tracks in wurtsboro. My dad used to tell me stories about them riding the tracks on their 3 & 4 wheelers and camping in the campground in the 80s and 90s. I was born in 91 and by the time I could ride they made it illiegal to ride the tracks and the summitville sand pits. So I spent my time getting chased by DEC on my dirt bike. I wish I got to experience riding and camping down their when it was legal.

Love this!!! Thank you so much 💓

I went to Daley Barracks in the summer of 1976 to visit my army buddy Steve Fermoil really had a good time and visited a monestary and drank some awesome suds.

Nice!

This video is a nice study of the underside of that bridge for those who would like to model it. As a kid in the 1970's, I used to spend a lot of time hanging out on that Ford Plant spur. I remember the switch engine in Erie Lackawanna paint constantly shuffling autoracks about. One distinct memory I have was on the west end of that bridge. A few light engines appeared coming from Hillburn Yard. I remember yelling "Conrail" as we headed for cover in the weeds to hide. The engines were still in PC black.

We had property along O&W between the Cadosia yard and Kerryville. Our privat road crossed the rails at Vitale's Lumber Yard

Thanks for sharing! My dad was stationed there ‘63-‘65. He has lots of these same pictures.

66 / 68 B co 10th Engr 3rd Inf Div.

There is an Daley Barracks Group on Facebook with some old Pics and something. facebook.com/groups/261111957247694?ref=bookmarks

I'm in a bunch of pics I didnt' know he had and don't remember. Much of this was about 45 years ago.

I still remember the first time I drove up there on my own....I was kinda wing it .it was only two roads from my north jersey home....I was driving and driving,not sure if I was close or not then u see it that unmistakable big giant barn side,and u know that u found it,we got there early in the morning I had my own private jet that I flew in called my 1972 Barracuda just a 318v8 but I may it in 45 minutes,what I found out later was a three hour drive at legal speed limits,like I said jet...there is nothing like our American highways and a NICKEL PLATED AMERICAN V8 WITH A LITTLE HORSEPOWER,at nite the roads are empty vacant and a joy to drive on when there are zero cars or traffic....THANKS great video,this is hey dey for sure...Marty Smith I have only seen stills of him in MXA.

I don't want anyone to thing I'm old fashion,may be old school...but I really think Unadilla should go back to the original layout they can do whatever they want with the dirt mix jumps and so on,but these two switch backs are nice little esses that put the stress on finesse and it disrupts the flow that is why it needs to be part of the national layout because when it get rained on a slipperier as they say in England these little switch backs become a whole different game in very wet conditions,a little European flavor u could say,if the promoters don't get it too bad they are not paying attention they have already stripped dilla of its grass for what ever the reason grass is the ultimate motocross dirt of choice and Unadilla is the only track in the USA. That had that great grass mix that gives u traction like nothing else when the grass gets all mix in....but not any more...beside the place just looks better green...I used to live not far,and have been there 4 or 5 times,first time 78 ish and the grass was still around,it was a little crazy if u spent the whole 3 days there....I'm kind of glad that part is over,it must have been what MX was like in Roman times drunks and togas laying all over,no plumbing couches on fire ever where,just kidding.it needed a little class upgrade Ward was probably getting a little fed up with his spectators,it was out of control...not our best display of American support for racing motocross...

I'm familiar with the Ringwood area. I grew up in the Midvale section of Wanaque from 1951 to 1964. The Erie Railroad came into Wanaque back then. I lived fairly close to the rail yard in Midvale. This was the end of the Greenwood Lake Branch back then. The branch went to Greenwood Lake at one time, but service ended in 1939. Back in the day, the tracks were still in place that went to Greenwood Lake, and a spur to Ringwood. All of the tracks in Wanaque are gone now. The steel trestle that went over the Wanaque River is gone. The rail yard is gone, and the Midvale station is gone. I've been to Ringwood Manor several times, and it's such a beautiful place.

Hey Bud I’m 66 and I am in some of those pictures

I just found this video and was surprised to see my whole family on this video. We were seasonal campers there for several years and this video brings back fond memories. Those were good time. Still trying to figure out some of the people in the video as time goes on we lose some of our recollection. Thank you for sharing this video. If you have any others I would love to see them.

Spent time there in 1962. I was a mechanic 2nd recon Hqts. 14th cav. Sure brings back memories of the area. Lots of time in the field.

anybody remember the German National barber who worked there in 1970-71? If you got your hair cut after he "drank" his lunch it was like being tortured. I saw one dude almost punch him out when he got too rough with him. Other than him, all good memories, what a beautiful place to be stationed. I was lucky to be there while others were in Vietnam fighting that "war"

Hello Gentle People In a very important family matter i need help ! ! The Name of my Dad is Thomas H. Hocking. He went to Fort Knox Armory School. He was in the 14th Armored Cavalry Regiment. Stationed in Fulda, Bad Hersfeld, Bad Kissingen in the early sixties ! In the former West Germany. I need his at least the Date of Birth. Regards Brad

Was there from 67to68 headquarters co head a great time Matty

I LOVED BK...SERVED HQS 14TH ARMD CAV 60-63. CAN'T SEEM TO CONTACT ANYONE WHO WAS THERE DURING THAT PERIOD. I AM NOW 75 AND RETIRED IN CHIANGMAI, THAILAND. I VISITED BK DURING MY ASSIGNMENT AT RAF CROUGHTON, ENGLAND 72-74 AND AGAIN WHEN I WAS AT THE US EMBASSY PRAGUE 82-84.

Thanks for posting this. I haven't been up that way in over 43 years. I'm surprised the ROW is still there. We hung out in Cuddebackville in the mid-60`s, but now my friend`s family property is now the D&H Canal County Park. Good riding.

My father Wallace wade echols sr. Serviced on this base between 1974-1979 I believe. If anyone had serviced with him or even knew him I would love to hear about it. He passed away November 5th 2014. I believe he's in one of these pictures I think it's the second one he's in the middle.

Name song?

Was at Bad Kissingen Apr 1968 - Dec 1969....Was there during Red Alert in 1968....I was a lifer....

Hey thanks for the memory my husband and I were there in 71

Trying to contact James Anderson that posted a comment

Just found this video and all I can say is Thanks for the memories dude. I remember these track well, I raced 75 - 80 and loved seeing this. Remember the old rubber band starts at Mt Catalina in Ellenville? I remember Pat Moroney just smoking the field when he raced.

Just to let everyone know the person in this video, Ken Hacker. passed away a few months ago. He was one of my best friends and a true patriot. I am so glad I got a chance to make this video for him, it was a honor.

I was in Bad K in 1957-59 with B co 10th Engr 3rd Inf Div. Wonderful time too bad it had to end

I was in F0x troop in 1970 to 1972 in 2nd platoon. Lt. Cleland was my platoon leader. Capt. Donohue was C.O. when I left. Platoon sargeant was Brown. We patrolled the border out of wolbach and colberg. I was tank driver on Fox27. I loved driving that tank.Had a lot of fun in that track. My name Donald Smith and when left I was an E-5

There in F troop 67 transferred to HQ motor pool and was there until 68 Loved that little town. Drank way too much and miss the camaraderie.

My ex husband Ed Henry was in the 2/14 at Daley Barracks 1969 to 1972. We married in September 1970 and I lived in BK with him until 1972. I only remember a few of the guys. Terry "Eli" Whitney, "Audi", Mike Wall. Wish I could remember more. It was a wonderful time in my life.

My family owed one of those seasonal bungalows up in the Hills, on Sunrise Trail, for 60 years, starting in 1925. I used to spend a good deal of time up there from the late 1950s to the mid 1970s. End of the Catskill heyday as a vacation destination... Yet, I was last up there perhaps 10 years ago and was pleasantly surprised to see that the village held up pretty well at that point...

1972-1975, HQ 2/11th ACR Medic. Other medics that I remember: "Quack," "Z-Man," Rick Blair, Campbell, Gary Shaw & Dr. Hillert (Squadron Surgeon). I am the one that injected the PCN in the arse with a 16 gauge needle for the Clap..

@James Egan..... The RV with the cranking stereo that had the huge speakers on the roof. Every year it was there, music blasting and all of us standing around the big bonfire. Great memories, was there for many years. Nationals and Grand Prix races. The track was so much nicer back then. We would get there on Friday evening and the track would look like a huge hey field. Only after Saturday practice did it start to look like a motocross track.
