Railfanning the NYS&A

Here's a little 2009 action to update Lee's Previous venture.  Besides multiple trains at multiple locations, I have a sound track!

Now, 500 bonus points for the artist and tune.  ;)

Nice video , funny song , funnier that the purist Amish won't hear it because their wooden radios aren't working except when you hit them with a drum stick , only then do they make a clunk clung noise .

That is absolutly AWESOME.. I am glad you all had a good time.. The next one will be spring and will be for N Scalers and them only.. Of coure all on here will be invited.. This was a great day the trains ran very well.. The guys that helped me Jamie Rickens ans Bradley Hartzler said that they ran all but three trains that were made up.. So 27 different trains ran during the day.. That would be 84 different locomotives and 1,620 different cars.. What a day..

Hey Todd, what's that big wheel box at 0:18? That's a looker, and I think I need to find me one!

Ed, If you are refering to the Conrail box that is a Concor grain car.. They made that in a couple of different Conrail paints.. Large wheel and small wheel..They have been long gone as far as I know.. Train shows you will more than likely find them.. I am not missing to many Conrail cars..

Ahh yeah, I think I actually have one of those cc boxes. I'll have to keep an eye out for the others.

I used to shy away from stuff like that, until a Lon Godshall really made it clear exactly how much of a jumble of stuff the CR 50' boxcar fleet was.

Ed, that's indeed a ConCor 50' grain-door box.  I got me one too.



A foobie for sure, but a big, sexy can opener.
