BaltACDNot one of Herron's
Funny that just a couple of days ago (Monday, October 29th at 11:16) he provided a link to this very film in a post on RyPN, where he said:
Just posted on YT this 14 min film of early diesels by GM and was probably used to sell railroads on buying diesel switchers. I guessed at 1938 as the year for this but it may have been a year or two earlier. Feel free to pass it on. The second part of the film probably sold a bunch of SW units.I am not offering this one as a DVD. Just enjoy it on YT.
Oops.

Miningman Best part was the ending and the parting words "full steam ahead".
Miningman Well actually the parting words are "Full Speed Ahead" but I edited to fix that, in my own mind at least.

Those 2 locos came awfully close, and someone jumped out as well! Wonder if he bailed owing to the perceived near collision?
MiningmanThe loco crossing the diamond as the other aproaches at 90deg was a bit reckless. Wonder if they had to practice that. Something could have gone wrong quite easily! Best part was the ending and the parting words "full steam ahead".

I noticed that too - what were they thinking.
