Nice capture. Back in the days when they still had a healthy amount of business as shown by all of the boxcars. Lou Gerard posted a picture a few days ago of a UP crew with just one boxcar for the Tribune...

Cool to see all those newsprint boxcars. My other modeling interest in the Central Vermont circa 1980 and they had tons of those 50' newsprint boxcars running north and south through New England, perhaps picking up newsprint destined to the Tribune!

Best,

Fantastic footage! I miss photographing all those 50' newsprint boxcars. Thank you for documenting and sharing this.
