Video Title: Fostoria Ohio Steam Trains from the mid 1950's
Date Added: 11/18/2009 1:11:28 AM

Great shots of the steam trains in Fostoria Ohio from the mid 1950's. These are part of a show on B&O Steam Railroads which was filmed by Donald J. Krofta with his 16mm camera. Audio by Jim Hawk, narration by Danny Harmon.

This is from a film/video available from Herron Rail Video (www.herronrail.com) along with many other quality trains programs.

I am not associate with Herron Rail Video, but want to give credit to them for these great historic shots in Fostoria. Their B&O / C&O video has many other steam engines along the route through Ohio.

I have added in some text descriptions of the locations in Fostoria where these were filmed.

Video Title: Model Railroading Unlimited Pt 2 16mm film Funny
Date Added: 10/27/2009 4:30:16 PM

Model Railroading Unlimited Pt 2 16mm film : Probably the funniest film made on model railroading. This overview of railroading has everything from how to get started to the operation of a computerized train layout that puts all trains at full throttle when a power surge disrupts operations. This film has everything from trains, musical numbers and railroad dancing girls!
Here's another review of this film : In this imaginative film produced for Kalmbach Publishing, we are given a description of model railroading and the many sizes these toy trains come in. Hosted by Walt Disney animator and train collector Ward Kimball, we are given a very humorous view of the hobby. This copy came from a old vhs 1985 film to video transfer.
