THANK YOU FOR VIDEO
Fantastic footage and narration as always.
Thanks woods840 we try and keep it informative and interesting!
It was enjoyable to watch trains UNTIL the disgusting graffiti began appearing in the 90's. I can hardly look at trains today.
You live in East LA 😮
Yeah, the graffiti is a real drag! Especially when you see how it used to be!
SOUTHERN RR retired CEO Stanley Crane became CEO of Conrail and it was a sinking railroad when he took it over. It sounds as if he upgraded the road AND TURNED a profit!?
Here in 2024, a "Great CEO" is a person who takes a company and sells it off part/peice at a time and turns a few months profit for its share holders, and closes the company down, after destroying it! The CEO will leave with a golden parachute after desteoying the company and the invested employees lives, AND THEY ARE considered GREAT! When anyone could do that? Its funny how times and definitions have changed.
Depends on who you talk to. A number hate Crane because he eliminated branches, such as Lackawanna cut-off, to become profitable. Sort of Beeching in the UK.
one more time, the Prr was never making money source from the Records of John fishwick Of the N&W rr, one of the best rail road CEO, the N&W could have Purchase the PRR the N&W had the Money but chose not to I have more Respect For John Fishwick then Richard Sanders
wrong facts. the PRR never made much profits, it was the NYC that was Making the Profits
August 1960 facts from Fortune list the PRR gross at 888 million and the NYC gross as 773 million.. net incomes of PRR=16.6 million (ranking first) and NYC = 13.2 (ranking third).

@@charlessmileyvideos VERY NICE LIES, tHE pRR WAS LIVING OFF N&W stock divends lost money since the Enmd of WW2 the N&W rr did not even want the PRR The New Youk central built 7 hump yards, the PRR 1 the Nyc rebuilt most of its system, the PRR did no track work the nyc move almost the same traffic with just 2 tracks from, nyc to chicago, the Prr needed 4 tracks, the Prr was caught lieing about its ned income. if the Prr was so great why is 60% of its track gone to day gone today
