CONRAIL 1-THE WEST SLOPE

Conrail's West Slope average grade of 1% is easier than the 1.5% grade of the East Slope, but it is longer, so helpers are needed for both ascending and descending the grade. This VIDEO covers the line through this fantastic helper district.
You'll see tremendous action between Gallitzin, PA and Johnstown, PA. We'll see the tunnels at Gallitzin; village of Cresson (where helpers are based); action at Lilli; Casandra (deep rock cut); action at Summer-hill; Southfork (and the connection with the branchline); Mineral Point (and the beautiful valley below); and finally Johnstown. 58 Minutes


CONRAIL 2-(MIDDLE DIVISION) ALTOONA TO HARRISBURG

The big blue locomotives are really moving as Green Frog presents its second VIDEO in the Conrail series. Pennsylvania has a tremendous legacy of railroad action and Conrail keeps it going with coal drags, double stacker's, general merchandise freights and more. This division sees 30 to 40 trains a day for continuous action.
We'll visit the Juniata shops in Altoona, Conrail’s major rebuild facility for its large fleet of locomotives. Harrisburg is the site of Enola yard and 24 hour a day operations that make for some great night shots. In between, we'll see the Tyrone, PA. interchange between the Nittany & Bald Eagle short line and Conrail, and Mount Union - once an interchange between the Pennsy and the East Broad Top.
Not to be missed is the "longest stone arch bridge in the world" at Rockville, PA. And, of course, there's the famous Horseshoe Curve, a train watcher's paradise in the heart of Pennsylvania's spectacular scenery.
All of this and more as Conrail locomotives battle over grades and through tunnels. 88 Minutes


CONRAIL 3-PITTSBURGH TO CRESTLINE

Conrail is on the move again with Green Frog Productions coverage of the busy mainline between Pittsburgh and Crestline, Ohio. This active line sees 60 trains per day, and we visit over 20 locations. This was once the main line west from Pittsburgh for the Pennsylvania Railroad, home to some of the heaviest duty railroading in America.
The eastern half of this line is mountainous terrain. Big Blue pulsating power provides helper service through Highland Cut. Almost 4000 cars a day are classified at Conway Yard - Conrail's largest yard. At Crestline, we'll see Triple Crown trailers being interchanged between rail and highway service. Conrail as an independent entity could be in its final year as other railroads are seeking to buy it out.
Watch history in the making as the big blue locomotives of Conrail roll out their final days. Locals and mainline, short lines and pool power - its all here in broadcast quality video and dynamic digital stereo sound. 58 Minutes


CONRAIL 4-INDIANAPOLIS TO ST. LOUIS

Conrail hosts plenty of foreign power in this action video. This VIDEO highlights operations along The Big Four. The Big Four was originally named the Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati and St. Louis (for the four cities it went through). The New York Central took it over in order to gain access to Western operations. We'll visit places such as Terre Haute, Indiana; Effingham, Illinois, Greencastle, Indiana, Avon, Indiana and East St. Louis, Illinois. We'll also take you on an exciting tour of the manufacturing operations of Wabash National the builders of the RoadRailers.
This video highlights other railroads that cross Conrail as well, such as: Illinois Central, Union Pacific, Burlington Northern, Norfolk Southern and CSX. We'll visit an ex-Conrail tower in East St. Louis, now run by Gateway Eastern. This video highlights lots of night time action at Effingham and Terre Haute.
If you like variety, then this exciting video is just the ticket! 87 Minutes


CONRAIL WINTER

Photographer Rich Scheid’s professional digital camera captures the last winter for Conrail, and the worst in Conrail's history. Shot on the Dearborn Division, where 32 inches of snow fell in just a few days.
Operations came to a halt with switches snow covered and frozen. We visit location’s in Michigan and Ohio along the Detroit to Toledo line, and on the Michigan line which runs from Detroit to Chicago. 69 Minutes
