Thanks for a great piece of Christmas history in America. I love the old film where you can see such details like the utility lines on the side of the tracks that still have insulators on them.

Cpl Vic Burk - You know you are on an old line when you see poles with insulators like that. For anyone that has serious train on the brain I recommend visiting the Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton. A dear departed friend of mine worked there from when the place opened, so I saw the place develop from their beginning. They have a nice facility. He was in charge of Interpretation.
