NYC Noel Weaver, Jr. movies, 1941-1968

This video is from silent 8 mm movies from the late Noel Weaver, Jr. It covers the last passenger train on the Putnam Division, a local freight on the North Adams Branch, trains on the Harlem Division, steam and electric at Harmon in 1941 and we'll wind up seeing a fan trip on the Hudson Division behind NKP 759. I hope you enjoy this look back in time.

These were 8 mm videos shot by the late Noel Weaver, a good friend who gave me copies of his videos. Noel was an engineer on the New Haven, then Penn Central and finally with Conrail. His final years he worked between Selkirk and Buffalo. I had his tapes converted to disk and then posted them to my RUclips channel for others to enjoy. Thank you for watching!!

Wow, thank you in the winter. I could look from my front yard on granite springs across from Sarles Dr and see the outline of the tracks looking past Ironton by Stuart's
