Great video! I used to run the boilers for the vats that cooked those logs at 26:17. Spent many nights watching chips burn and trains move around the yard. Newberry was the northernmost point for the Reading R.R. That little building where the Lycoming Valley R.R. now has their office used to be the Reading's office. Was Conrail when I was around there, but my uncle used to chase Reading back in the day and he told me about it. Spent many Saturday's running around Newberry and out at the bridge that crosses the river at Antlers. The guys at Newberry got to know us and I even got a (short) ride in an engine in the yard. Still have the photo my uncle took of me sitting in the "big chair" of Conrail's GP-40 engine #3002. Great times and seeing these places bring back many fond memories. Thanks for that!
I'm a European and live in Southwest Britain, we've nothing like your freight Railways here, and I really enjoy your Videos, especially those with the Commentaries explaining how your Railways work over there. Always been a follower of the Norfolk and Western, and of course now the Norfolk Southern.
Thanks Peter.. I'm glad to be able to help you learn a little more about the railroads in our country.. It will only get better from here so keep chiming in.
I live in Melbourne, Australia and I have been a fan of US railroads since I was 6 years old (I'm 58) and I'm also a bills fan from way back so I enjoy the region you portray... cheers from Oz...!
Oh wow.. Aussie, that's cool.. You guys have some rugged, hot-weather ore railroading way down there if I'm not mistaken.. I've not been to Australia (yet).. But the pictures and video I've seen of Melbourne make me want to get there more and more by the day.
Thank you very much Trains21 for such a really awesome and wonderful video quite a lot of History in this video this was really and truly stunning and amazing places I just like to be there I am lost for words about this video is really awesome a big thank you for this wonderful video again
And thank you for your kind words.. I must admit, I put a lot of effort into this video.. I put a lot of effort into ALL of my vids but this one got even more attention than usual..
Eastern part of the Buffalo Line (east of Emporium) was originally part of the Philadelphia and Erie built to compete with the Erie Canal. The line up Keating to Buffalo was built much later.
Great Video, lots to see, especially in the Still Shots, like the Rail laid out in the Six foot at Herndon following or before a Transposing Job. Really like your Choice of Music. Did you see those old N & W, Conrail Top Gons and even a SOO Gondola also the very artistic graffiti painting of the Feet on a Boxcar towards the end of Train 11A. Thank you.
Hi Trains21, I like the video, As a truck driver of 40 years, I know a lot of these places. So it is great to see them again. What is the music playing at 3:41 and on, I like it
As a trucker of many years myself I consider it an honor.... To the best I could, most of the songs came from Bensound.com. They are (very good) royalty-free tracks.. 1 or 2 came from other sources.. Here's the names to the ones I could find from Bensound: New Dawn Tenderness Sweet Cute Energy Clear Day Jazz Comedy Hope this helps.
Great! Thanks, My Grandmother use to live in East Stroudsburg as well. Drove for Yellow Freight and at the end I owned my own. past Milton PA all the time. my regret is not being able to stop.
I worked for a bunch of different companies and people before I bought my own.. And while I could probably stop more than you, I had pretty much the same dilemma.
Great videos! Thanks for taking the time to share them! I just wanted to add one of the titles that you picked up from Bensound.com (my favorite on this episode, which wasn't listed): Retro Soul (under the Funky/Groove section)
Yes,! The gentleman made reference to some train callings. Back in the late 70s early. 80s Conrail. had one. I worked,TV. 16 a van job on the New Jersey Division that went along. th Hudson river
shariys1 I was going to point that out also. Best I've ever seen on a box car then shortly after is "JFK ". Weirdest spray paintings I've ever seen on a train and I pay attention to those also
I LIKED A LOT OF THE VIDEO, I AM FROM BRAZIL, FROM THE CITY OF GOIÂNIA FROM THE STATE OF GOIÁS, GERM TO LIKE TRAIN, HERE THE RAILWAY MACHINE DOES NOT ARRIVE NEAR THE AMERICAN. HUGE WILL TO KNOW PERSONALLY, HUGS.
Hi AC, I am watching the Video again, because it‘s good and I‘ve just had Lunch, and noticed Water being sprayed onto some Timber in a Yard near Milton, what is the Reason for that, Fire Precautions or to stop the Timber drying out too quickly?
Trains21 Great AC aren’t modern Communications great you could just be at the End of my Village in North Devon. My Wife and I are just about to go and play Bingo on FaceTime with our Children who live and Work in Berlin. I guess you‘re staying Home because of the C-19 whatever keep safe. Thanks for your Reply and great Informative Videos.🚂😺👍
You are correct. The logs are being sprayed to keep them from drying out. They are destined to be cut into veneer at the Keystone Veneer plant. I used to run the boilers that kept the curing vats up to temperature there. Each type of log had a specific temperature to be cured in the vats to prepare them for cutting once they were moved inside.
Andrew Bolig Hello Andrew, many Thanks for your Information, that sounds interesting, when I retired as a Railway Permanent Way Engineer I worked for a small Sawmills and on one part of the Yard we used to Pressure treat Timber to tantalise, a preservation Treatment. Thank you once again.

From Emporium (5:50) and worked summers for Penn Central right after the PRR/NYC merger in '68 thru '70 at start of the bankruptcy.
Yes,! The gentleman made reference to some train callings.
Back in the late 70s early. 80s
Conrail. had one. I worked,TV. 16

that went along. th Hudson river
Very cool!
47:40 - what the ....??! Now that's some artwork!
shariys1 I was going to point that out also. Best I've ever seen on a box car then shortly after is "JFK ". Weirdest spray paintings I've ever seen on a train and I pay attention to those also
Yes it is.. I've seen several of his murals and they're all awesome.
Guy goes by the name of "youngjarus". I've personally spoke to him a few times; very kind hearted individual.
What are those Golden Triangle Railroad cars doing way up here? GTRA is a short short line in Mississippi!
That's not uncommon to see those cars..They're a staple in Central PA,

Thanks, Neto.. I'm glad you enjoyed.
Conrail used to Run Trai ENBU, BUEN, ML420 AND ML411 AND AT one Time ALBU AND BUAL used to do that
Thanks Derrick.. That little nugget of info really sheds new light on some questions I had!! And is much appreciated!!
Nice video! Do you know what days of the week the Driftwood Turn on WNYP runs?
I believe it's a 5-day a week operation.. But I'm not totally sure.
Those black and orange alcos look like ex Cartier locos of northern Quebec
I believe they may be
Is that the Hudson Hornet and the tow truck from "Cars", the kids movie at 32:09?
I sure does look like it, doesn't it!
the Buffalo and Pitt gets on the buffalo line in Machias?
????
If you're asking what I think you're asking, the B&P connect with the Buffalo Line at Driftwood, Pa..
no no bud the BP get on the buffalo at machias and uses that to get to their yard in buffalo
Oh, Ok.
WNYP rarely use between olean and Machias because they interchange at salamanca with BP
Ns train are good to Watch
Hi AC, I am watching the Video again, because it‘s good and I‘ve just had Lunch, and noticed Water being sprayed onto some Timber in a Yard near Milton, what is the Reason for that, Fire Precautions or to stop the Timber drying out too quickly?
I honestly don't know why they were spraying but both of your hypothesis' are good ones.. And as always, I appreciate you watching and commenting.

What song is this in minute 36:03
Bensound.com
Retro Soul (under the Funky/Groove section)
Thank you! :)
Now am I mistaken? I thought the NS line from Cleveland to buffalo was the Buffalo line N&W nickel Plate?
No.. That's the Lake Erie District.
I'm always surprised how bumpy the siding and yard tracks are
Back up and pick up the conductor eh? Looks like they want every dimes worth in their 12 hour shift. Can't blame them. ;)
Yeah really.
How do you know the train designations?
I either hear them on the radio or through past experience.
Trains21 thanks!
Turn sound off for better experience!
47:45, now THAT is boxcar art! If only other graffiti "artists" did some actual art instead if just tagging stuff.
I know what you mean.
