That's a great video of a time past; and it reminds me of the track segment during the Amtrak sequence in the first "Superman" movie when the earthquake fault is shown opening right in front of the fast-moving Amtrak "Super Chief" (where Superman lifts 1 rail back into place and uses himself as the other, missing, rail - just in time to keep the train from derailing).  The cast credits at the end of the movie list "Super Chief Driver" so I presume that's what the British film producers intended when they showed the Amtrak train in that movie.

SIX twenty cylinder EMD's dragging freight up  the hill!   WOW!    Thanks for posting this.
