Wow. So much has changed since then. From the railcars to the locomotives, to the tracks themselves. The only constant is the beautiful mountain scenery. :)
Those Conrail loci's were a long way away from home. I see a few BC Rail loci's in train videos in the Chicago and even further east on the eastern seaboard area on CN trains. Looks like someone go to go on a road trip. Nice videos you took.
The end of the caboose era. Thats about the same time they took the English off the Rail Way Crossing signs and replaced them with the multicultural X.
Love the cabooses, especially the pointe st charles
Loved those old pointe st Charles cabooses, class of the industry
Yes, indeed, they are classics. Thanks for commenting.

Yes, indeed. Can't help but wonder what change is in store for the next generation.

Thanks. Those road trips way back when were fun. Too much stress on the pavement for an old-folk (fogey?) these days.
What year was this filmed cause the cp vans stopped being used in the late 80s
July 1988. It says so on the opening title. I have video of cabooses in use on Vancouver Island in 1990.
You dont see Conrail units in the NW. thanks for sharing. 1 in an octillion
Actually it's the southwest on our side of the border, Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦
Back when Kaiser was still in the Elk valley and Reagan was still in the white house

Yes, that sounds right. I was sorry to see them both go.
