Conrail Around Whiting Indiana (May 1999)

[@seminnesotatrainsairplanes839]

I refuse to believe this video was taken in 1999. The quality looks so good.

[@RailroadMediaArchive]

It was taken with a broadcast quality and camera and upscaled to HD using software.

[@trainsplanesmore]

@@RailroadMediaArchive THAT would do it. 😀

[@kishascape]

That’s what happens when your caught in the brainrot fad mentality. BetacamSP is great even without upscale. I still use one today.

Where is the shot at 8:42 taken at?

[@AnthonyAngotti-kc4vm]

In Hammond Whiting area by the Calumet avenue crossing by the level Brothers soap factory

[@QualityControl2271]

1999 was the year Conrail was going broke so NS and CSX got the stock. NS got 58% of it and CSX got 42.

Just a typical day on the Chicago Line!

[@DavidNSRailfan]

Was this line on the Chicago line only intermodel traffic was there ever any freight?

[@RailroadMediaArchive]

Both.

[@Steelers2841]

Beautiful Shot

[@bhproductions1061]

Closest thing we can get to this today is on the B&P with SD60M/I’s with their RS3LS I got plenty of videos of them

[@curailproductions7636]

[@yanyunyang1662]

I don’t think it was from the 1999

[@lorenzobeckmann3736]

Skyway. I remember the Standard Oil strike

[@PatFrenchLeafsFan1]

I just wanted to check on you! I was wondering if you happen to have more footage from the Soo & Sudbury?

[@AstroKnight118]

🥲

[@kevinhoward9593]

PRR Signals at Whiting? isn't that NYC territory?

[@RailroadMediaArchive]

Just east of the present day Amtrak station in Whiting the Chicago Line switches to the PRR alignment into Chicago.
