They need to work on their use of hand signals. Also the yelling out of distances to coupling is not an industry recognized or safe practice. I would also point out at 17:48, when the trainman stepped off the moving coach and onto the platform, he was putting his safety in jeopardy. He should have either stayed on the cut or never got on. At 20:48 the same trainman is riding he car , not facing the equipment and only maintaining two points of contact. Unfortunately a lot of railroad museum operations lack the basic understanding of proper operations. Most of them think they know everything and reluctant to get guidance from professionals.
i meant to say ........ thank you all for all your time and help in preserving this history !
this narrow gauge went past my shack many times, but it was long before my shack was built, would love to have seen it
It's been so long, this was the railroad the year before I joined in first grade....
great video, beautiful scenery and unique trains. greetings from Indonesia
Leslie and I want to go to this railroad so bad! I personally love 24” gauge! Nice video!
At the moment, it is out of print. It may return at some point but I don't have a definite date.
Great Video, Thanks for Sharing !

This was filmed in 2007 and may not reflect the way the do things now.

half of american's railroads run this way and there isnt shit you can do about it
@@NortheastCorridorFilms I am hero. These rookie railroaders need to be called out on their dangerous behavior.
