  Left coaster here.<br> About all I ever got see from East Coast roads was an occasional freight car or pics in Trains magazine. Always enjoy seeing these fallen flags in action.

  Great footage.<br>I was never a great fan of American diesels being British but then I moved to Australia and of course most of the diesels were EMDs or Alcos<br>I learnt to really love these US type diesels<br>The good thing about old diesels of course is the sound they make.<br>Probably one thing is Unique here in that Victoria has the B, class diesel which is double ended and looks like someone has cut two EMD F7s in half and glued them together.

  Does seeing Penn Central equipment make anyone else sad? I loved the video but PC stuff always feels like seeing a tombstone for a couple great railroads

  Can&apos;t thank you enough for putting this video together but I will try - THANK YOU!!! I never lived in the northeast but I have always had an interest in the history of railroads in the region.

  There&apos;s just something extremely cool and nostalgic about locomotives from this era! Thanks for posting, I really enjoyed it!

  Great footage of the railroads in the northeast. &nbsp;Ahh yeah I remember the EL passing thru Bloomsburg with a host of road power leading. &nbsp;I recall seeing GP35&apos;s alot of Alco pwr some GE&apos;s leading going north or south through my hometown on the Bloomsburg branch. &nbsp;Thanks for uploading this step back in time. &nbsp;Brings back memories as a little kid watching trains from my gram&apos;s &amp; aunt&apos;s house.
