YouTube video: Reflections of American railroading
« on: March 04, 2026, 07:54:41 pm »
Hi!  Just watched this one hour and 26 minute 1959 color film which is pretty good, but it got really good at 44:06 when they cover Monon fan trip(s) from Louisville to Chicago.   Part of the movie is shot from the cab of an F3 and some of the old timers might recognize the engineer.  I enjoyed the cab view crossing the Ohio river.  Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for the heads-up on this, Chuck.  It seems that the Monon appeared in a number of railroad films.  It would be ideal if we could take all these small clips of Monon-related video and splice them all together into one large one.  Probably not possible, but it would make a great show.
