This one is in English  ...but you still might want to turn down the
sound so as not to hear all the Penn Central "bellyaching"
There is some great shots of old Alcos and I even spotted a Baldwin in yard service.

Another great find, Tayco. I guess the stories about deferred PC track maintenance are true. I remember the equipment looking pretty sad in those days, especially the filthy GG1's in PC black.

Wow.
I knew Penn Central had some problems, but jeez...the part where the cars were rolling along and the ties were actually lifting up and out under the weight was pretty scary. 
They were able to fix all the track with help from the government, yeah?
