"Meet the Heritage Fleet" NJ Transit 40th Anniversary Display | October 1, 2023
The video turns 30 today!
Looks like it would be fun to ride just for the views.
TM Books and Video did a really great job on making "The Great Train Story" video when they came to the museam around 2006.
Very nice. I love Chicago !
Thanks for the memories.
I was there chasing 765 that day, it was fun!
That's a fantastic document of SF at that time. I lived there most of the 90s (at the corner of Powell and Bush seen here!) and this video instantly brought me back! Thank you for posting!
As a kid in the sixties i recall that display, i think Santa Fe sponsored the model railroad. Good video.
Probably the best fidelity video and audio I’ve seen about a GG1
Very nice. I always find the spaghetti network of tracks in those stations amazing.
Very nice. Surprised to see a Bessimer REA car. How did that end up there?
I liked when that steam train was whistling, It was the most iconic train whistle in the world and some people use recordings of it in videos that might involve trains since 2000 to today. I really enjoyed this video.
Great video, well done!
The New York and Long Branch Railroad, where locomotives, motors, and rolling stock go to die.
I remember when the steam engine ran and then the G G 1 would go then come back to South Amboy and then go to the mu yard and then the steam would make the Bay Head run I was born in South Amboy and I was born in December 19th 1951
4876 is definitely my favorite GG1
Mine are the 4900's!!! "THE BEST THAT MAN CAN GET"!!!! Remember, the Gillette Razor commercial!! Although i heard that expression before that commercial for GILLETTE!! Anyhow, America needs RAYMOND LOEWY TO BUILD A MODERNIZED GG1 with the same sounds it originally had!!! Plus the AIR BRAKE SOUND!!! And the SAME BELLS & WHISTLES, because they were the Alltime BEST!!!!!! What could top the GG1 HORN!!!!!! NOTHING TODAY, OR YESTERYEAR OR EVER!!!! Earl of ElBarrio, NYC,NY. 8:55PM. 6/24/24
My mother's Aunt lived on John St. I would walk up to the tracks crossing and watch the swap out whenever we visited her. '74-'75 time period.
Always enjoyable to see these busy spots.
Thanks so much for catching us with #SleepingCarBerlin and #BlueRidgeClub
Beautiful catches!
5:04 hey coach 301. Before it got converted to open air and scrapped in 06. Would be nice to see a replica of that car one day.
Man!!!!! She was a monster!!!!
Nobody thought a Big Boy would run again. All it takes is a lot of money....
I remember when they used the Baldwin "Sharknose" diesel back in the 50's through the mid 60s
Thank god they don't exist anymore! Because this would be my nightmare. I wouldn't want to experience a ride on a GG1!
Would you prefer a ride behind a GG1? If so, you're out of luck.
Please upload this and stick with the original aspect ratio of 4:3. there is a HUGE discrepancy especially in the model train hobby about the size and shape of these engines, that is made even worse by a stretched wide video of a 1983 when wide screen was not a thing for video recording except maybe in a movie theater. The view at 1:35, 2:00, and 3:28 make this more obvious as well as I have a copy of the same engine and in the right aspect ratio it is not pixelated on the screen.
Great video thank you
It's a crying shame they ever took these things off the rails. I still don't understand why one of the remaining examples couldn't be refurbished with modern components.
on paper if someone could restore a GG1 it could still run on some parts of the NEC, Afaik the current owner Amtrak has not changed the electricity any and the overheads are still using the same voltage and frequency. I cant remember if NYC through NJ to DC is 25hz or 60hz
There is one or two of these on an overgrown siding in Cooperstown Junction, NY - just North of Oneonta (Big D&H town back in the day), along route 7 just past the turnoff to go to Cooperstown.
Makes you wonder if someone could restore one to operate on today’s lines.
In theory, you COULD but it would be expensive as hell. The transmissions would all need to be completely rebuilt, with a different system for cooling than originals, and I don’t think there’s anywhere it could run on modern electrical rail systems. Best to just slap a diesel behind
yea awesome catch with a horn and whistle battle
I like how the trains respond to each other and why does the Strasburg Railroad connect to Amtrak
These machines were one of the main ones that I looked at that never made it difficult for them to carry everything they could pull, I had to look at the impressive Milwaukee ones
I unfortunately was born in 84 which I believe was the year these giant beauties were all retired. I missed these trains when they were on revenue service. Thanks a lot MOM!
So would i 😮😅😊
Here in new Zealand way down in Christchurch back in the early 70's we said goodbye to our electric locomotives on the Christchurch to Lyttleton suburban trains. These electric locomotives were built specifically for the line to the port,for both freight and passenger trains.the Ec class were built by English Electric in the 1920's to replace steam on the port run.only one was saved and can be seen under its own power once in a while.along with the other electric lico used on the Arthur's pass section through to otira on the trans alpine route from Christchurch to Greymouth. Plus there are a couple of ex Wellington EMU sets along with the electric locomotives that replaced the original Eo class locos these replacement units were built by Toshiba engineering of Japan,and these locos were phased out when the railways became a corporation in the 90's. The Toshiba locos were eventually used on Wellington suburban trains due to a shortage of suburban EMUs
My son and I were back in the train, that day. We framed the poster, invitation, and tickets, and seat checks. It doesn't seem like 40 years.
'promosm'
Kingston(RI)?
Very nice information and video, however the wide screen video was not out until the 1990's so having this as a wide screen video stretches the thing to wide and and to low....
Do you have any videos of GG1 through Jamesburg NJ?
Is that locomotive like from 1940's ? It looks wonderful! The time when locomotive design had its charm and style. Not the modern angular stuff.
1934-1943 is what wikipedia has for the production run of the GG-1.
40 years ago next week
Nice
1:33 That’s Pascack Valley Line 2112 from Spring Valley, and I was onboard.
Does the Pascack Valley Line stop in Pearl River New York?
@@johnalder6028 Yes, as well as Nanuet and Terminates at Spring Valley. My station is Anderson Street Station 1/4 mile away from my house.
@@mr.conductorfromsts4204 I grew up in Pearl River . Moved away in 1971. Quite different from Port Saint Lucie Florida.Used to catch frogs and turtles at a drainage pond just before the station on the righ hand side going towards Nanuet. I wonder if it still exists.
@@johnalder6028 Ok
40 year anniversary in 6 days
Amtrak GG-1s ran until 1986 ? in rush hour service pulling the old heavy weight cars . Nice engine . I rode this train regularly out of Penn Station New York . Definitely not 1981or 1983 , although these dates may have been the last regular service dates.
I work in Annandale NJ and saw the 4877 sitting on a short siding at the Annandale station for awhile before it was moved to Lebanon NJ. I saw what looked like a GG1 but didn't believe it, wasn't a reason for a GG1 to be that far up a now dead end line. So I didn't walk down to look at it. Turns out it was the 4877 and I found out later after it had left Lebanon.
Thanks 😊 for showing just busy The Hoboken Terminal can be.
