DVD summary below:
The Kosin collection features super 8mm railroad films photographed by the late George Naugle of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
Volume 4 of the Kosin Collection features the last films in the series of the Anthracite Railroad operations and beginning of Conrail, from Jim Thorpe to Binghamton, NY with the majority of coverage being from the Lackawanna Valley north.
Erie Lackawanna is the primary railroad in this program with the usual scenes of the Delaware & Hudson, Lehigh Valley and early Conrail trains in the mix
As seen in earlier volumes, trains were navigating deteriorated track while trying to maintain schedules.
The volume ends with brief scenes during the 1972 flood from near Ashley and Wilkes-Barre, PA
Narrated with commentary by Mike Bednar
Color and sound; approx 54 minutes runtime
Wow!! What a great series of clips. As always, great commentating by Big Mike :D =- )
Great video of a long gone era in Railroading.

Sad to see Alcos in this video. Can only imagine how frustrating it was to restart shut down engines. Crews would tell me that they loved EMD and cringed when they had anything Alco because they knew that they'd break down somewhere
The trackage in this video probably now mostly belong to Norfolk Southern, the Reading Blue Mountain & Northern, or any short line railroads.
sounds like the guy smoked 5 packs of camels before the audio recording
When I was a kid in 1970's North central Ohio we had the EL and PC going through town and I thought it was normal for the cars to rock wildly as they went by haha
Big Mike...'nuff said
The great flood of '72! That was game over for the Erie Lackawanna.
Love the “SNOWBIRDS”
Love the video of all diesel trains great video thank you
Good video. Brings back memories of 1972 flood on Allegany River in Salamanca, NY going to summer camp in Allegheny State Park. Really tough summer for many people in NY and PA. Tough summer for the railroads as well.
Unfortunately if you only read the captions, you will have a horribly bad idea of what is really going on. The speech to text is a mess.
Great video showing clips of my 3 most favorite Eastern railroads which were the Erie Lackawanna, Lehigh Valley where 7 members of my family worked on out of Coxton Yard between 1868 & 1976 & the Delaware & Hudson. I used to watch many of the Erie Lackawanna, Lehigh Valley & Delaware & Hudson when I used to visit my paternal Grandmother & grand uncle who was an freight conductor on the Lehigh Valley.
Another great video. It's amazing seeing those freight cars rocking!

The name of the guy who shot the film?
Anyone know what tunnel this is at 2:40?
Nay Aug tunnel near Scranton Pennsylvania
When the hurricane destroyed the EL bridge and when they had it rebuilt, it sent them into bankrupcy
