I found this this afternoon and I know there are a couple of folks here that might like to see some third rail and under the wire stuff 1961 (Like GEC)

Very good home videos. My thanks to the posters that shared them. Cheers

Great vintage footage! I've always liked photos of action at the Park Ave tunnel but video is fantastic! Thumbsup
Ralph, I can only imagine what this area looked like for you in another 8 years after this was shot Goldth .
You have a lot in common with my oldest son. He has a pretty good collection of PC trains too, his first set in 1971 was a PC Tyco passenger set.

Green F unit? I had one! Goldth
Yep, Green unit with a red and white P C and 3 lit passenger cars. He wore them out (but it took him over 30 years to do it.)

I enjoyed my set as well. I still have the locomotive although I removed the motor and turned it into a dummy. A few years ago I tried to make it and the passenger cars look more prototypical with paint and decals...

Wow, that was a pretty good video. I'm not even sure I've ever seen video of some of those things, let alone in color. I think I liked the NYC S2s in the beginning, and the New Haven boxcabs and EF4 that showed up towards the end.

The NYC P and T motors were awesome as well, along with the EP5s, FL9s, and Washboard MUs. Thanks for sharing!
