A Scene from Years Gone By

Post by AndrewFields »

This was shot recently by a railfan in Wisconsin. Soo Line #1003 passes the Lima Center wigwags in what could be a video shot in 1935. This has to be my very favorite YouTube wigwag video. Enjoy. :Grin:

Make sure you watch in high quality and crank up the audio!!!

You think your car gets bad mileage? SP 4449 consumes 10 gallons of bunker oil and 100 gallons of water every mile.

Yeah, that is a good one. I've shot the 1003 and the Lima Center wigwag a couple of times each (not in the same video, though) but I didn't hear about that run ahead of time.

The only thing missing is the catseye crossbuck that used to be mounted on top of the wig wag.
