New York Central Promotional Video
Here is a great video by the New York Central Railroad showing every aspect of their grand enterprise. Follow a locomotive through it’s long day job and then the rigors of maintenance.

Father Finelli, I stumbled upon your page and discovered that you are a Steam Train buff. So is my son, Joe. We spent many a happy time during his childhood traveling from place to place, back east where we live, where Steam Trains are still running and he has made many films of those trips. I thought you might enjoy them. One of them has 8 million hits on YouTube. I’ll provide a link at the bottom. He’s 22 now but still does this from time to time. I was a great hobby for him! …… Oh, and I too miss the Mass in Latin and the beautiful traditional Catholic music that I heard as a child. It was profound soul stirring and proper for the solemnity of the occasion. And I say that as a man who has made his living as a life long musician who enjoys all kinds of music, as long as the lyrics are not profane. God Bless you Father and I thank you for the gift of your Priesthood! https://www.youtube.com/user/JoMiFu
Thank you Joe and God bless! I’ll be sure to check out those videos.
Father, somehow I got the impression that you were on the west coast but I see you are in RI, We are in PA. …. One of my favorite films he did is the Ice Harvest Train in Tobyhanna near Scranton. Some really nice, historically accurate footage @ around 4:05 through to the ending. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbqM-ygp1po and if you want to hear some good music, go here. Twelve hundred followers can’t be wrong. …. Have a wonderful 2015, and a good night, Father! https://soundcloud.com/joe-fusco-acoustic-guitar
