This brought back some good memories. I lived along the PRR, and at Harrisburg's station they still have GG1s. Lot of history in those rails. I rode them from Harrisburg to Philadelphia, and Harrisburg to DC. That was back when the Keystone service still ran AEM-7 locomotives!
Thats awesome! I would have loved to see the AEM-7's while they were still in service, they definitely had a lot of character. I almost forgot that they had a GG1 at Harrisburg, I'll have to visit it someday if I get the chance.
My dream was to ride the PRR all the way to Chicago from Lancaster, Pa. Never made it, but did ride from Sunbury to Harrisburg and on to Lancaster, and then on to Philadelphia. That was all over 60 years ago--but this video brings back lots of memories of those days! Thanks for sharing.
I would have loved to travel along the Northeast Corridor back then, All the sights and sounds would have been a treat to see by train. Not to mention being able to witness the older diesels and electrics in action. Glad this video was able to rekindle some fond memories!
Thank you! The PRR is in my top 5 favorites, I love all the unique rolling stock they operated. I only wish I could have featured their Q-2s or turbines. Sadly, there isn't any footage of them in high quality.
Beautiful vid. Do a show on the GG1. I believe I rode one of the last in the late '70s embarking at Clifton Heights for 30th St. It was a battered old thing in very weathered Tuscan red livery.
Thank you so much! I made a documentary on the GG1’s history if you want to see more of this incredible machine. I’d like to do a music video solely on the GG1 and it’s many careers on different railroads.
@@eafd270 Thank you! The sound effect is from an American Flyer station accessory. It used a tiny vinyl record to play the sound along with a few other announcements. Here’s a link to the exact announcement if you’re interested. ruclips.net/video/ijDF4NWPibI/видео.html&pp=ygUeYW1lcmljYW4gZmx5ZXIgdGFsa2luZyBzdGF0aW9u

Outstanding video! I love the PRR & the Broadway Limited!!

Super nice

Awesome 👍👍👍😎
Great stuff here😎😎😎
The Broadway Limited should have never been discontinued by Amtrak in 95! Prove me wrong!
would PRR 3768 be restored again.
@@maxwellwalcher6420 3768 was sadly scrapped, the only way to recapture this engine is to restore a preserved k4 and streamline it.
@@TrainMaster26 i have a better idea would K4 3750 be restored & Streamline for the Broadway Limited.
Very nice! Where did you get the station announcement sound effect from?
