Vintage railroad film - Railroadin' - 1941
Рет қаралды 1,851
Күн бұрынProduced in 1941, this film was sponsored by Alco Locomotives & General Electric, so naturally their railroad equipment is featured front and center. Released just before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, America is already gearing up for World War 2.
Featured are some absolutely priceless scenes of pre-war steam and diesel trains in colour.

The unloader, which trucks for coal every 54 seconds, is still working as csn be seen on another KZfaq channel. Will edit and add a link when I find it. It is a quite ingenious method of transporting the trucks up to the shoot and then returning back undrr the line to the starting point. A video of old pre-war hump yard would be interesting. Thanks for the video..

It is always nice to see how they managed to make films 80 years ago. Must be impressive stuff back then

The UK was somewhat ahead of the USA with standard time. Greenwich Mean Time was introduced for railway timetables in 1850. However it took until 1880 before this became a legal requirement.
