Review of Lehigh Valleys Buffalo Division Volume 3 DVD

 5 of 5 (1)
Volume 3 of Lehigh Valley's Buffalo Division covers the Lehigh's west end mainline operations from Sayre to Buffalo and the Niagara Branch to Suspension Bridge.
We'll view film shot by a variety of photographers both during passenger service with double track mainline and after passenger service ended and track consolidation.
Along the way, we'll ride along with a crew aboard the train as well as view scenes trackside as we head west.

After our tour, we'll look at the last 10 days of operation with Paul Templeton.
In closing this series, we'll pay tribute to the men that made the Lehigh Valley the railroad it was
