Review of Conrail Genesis - From the Ashes DVD

America's Bicentennial year witnessed a revolution in Northeast railroading. Many believed ConRail- built upon the bankrupt remains of Penn Central and other roads-would never turn a profit. As you view these scenes of the early years, marvel at the changes in fifteen short years!!

YOU WILL SEE:
"Alcos of E'port", 1976.
E-L power on the PRR.
Columbus Fs and Alcos.
"Bad Day" coal run.
NY& LB E-unit variety
Many locations!

PLUS: Pre-ConRail survey of predecessor roads!
