The Kosin collection features super 8mm railroad films photographed by the late George Naugle of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
Volume
4 of the Kosin Collection features the last films in the series of the
Anthracite Railroad operations and beginning of Conrail, from Jim Thorpe
to Binghamton, NY with the majority of coverage being from the
Lackawanna Valley north. Erie Lackawanna is the primary railroad in this
program with the usual scenes of the Delaware & Hudson, Lehigh
Valley and early Conrail trains in the mix.
As seen in earlier volumes, trains were navigating deteriorated track while trying to maintain schedules.
The volume ends with brief scenes during the 1972 flood from near Ashley and Wilkes-Barre, PA
