Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy them. :-)
Terrific camera work & editing. The night scenes were very nicely done, I especially like the B&W footage. A+!
Excellent video, Joe! For only 4 daylight trips, I think this video turned out very nicely at a nice length. This sure was a great weekend, and I’m glad to have been of assistance for the making of such a production. 🙂
Not since the two Xmas versions of T.V.'s Petticoat Junction have I seen / 'felt' such a nostalgic Nighttime Holiday Light Train. Beautiful Video! It has such a cozy effect I could go back to sleep again :√)

Amazing production!
Sure am hyped to see what the future has in store for 1309.
Excellent work once again!
Spectacular video.
Great video!! Very well done sir!!!!
Beautiful!
Great video!!
Awesome video!!
That B&W scene looks like it’s right out of Frank Capra’s “It’s A Wonderful Life.” Next stop, Bedford Falls?
Nice
When 734 returns to steam she could doublehead with 1309 in the future one day.
Outstanding video Joe! What kind of lights did you use for the shot of 1309 along the canal? I would love to try that technique for the Christmas trains at Essex this year!

I think I talked to you when we were at the narrows, we were the ones who were asking about lighting someone said they use neewer lights that had a remote control and were dimable.

Beautiful video! Are they running push/pull? Just wondering why the diesels are in the consist?
@fuscoproductions

Yes, the diesels are there mostly because these trips do not run the whole length of the line and are push pull. I also wouldn’t doubt that they are being careful as the engine is still fresh out of an overhaul and these were the very first revenue runs.

…in due time, that won’t be needed. :-) These we’re the first public runs plus they were push pull as they did not run the entire length of the line. I am fairly certain that once they (a) feel more confident with the engine and (b) do some track work to allow the engine to use the turntable, the diesels will disappear.
