Great video. Almost makes me want to ship over… almost. :lol:
Quite enjoyable and interesting. I love to see those older steam locos in action.
There are some older train vids on this web site which are well worth watching. Some of you may have already seen this.
Great site, the Internet Archive. I see one can download and save the video. Ralph

1943-the year I was born. And 23 years later, I was on a troop train from Ft. Riley, Kansas to Oakland, CA. Met our troopship (U.S.S. William Weigel)at the dock and headed for South Vietnam with the U.S. Army 9th INF DIV.
Dear Gary (and any other veterans or current service people),
Thank you for your service to our country.
Sincerely,
Joe Satnik
