![Third Avenue El: A Train Ride on the old New York City Third Avenue Line (1950s) [DVD]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41AEh59XxeL._SL75_.jpg)
Third Avenue El: A Train Ride on the old New York City Third Avenue Line (1950s) [DVD]This lovingly made film contains rare footage of the Third Avenue Elevated Railway in Manhattan, which was torn down fifty years ago and replaced by the modern subway system. The harpsichord score is the perfect accompaniment to the whimsical story of this film, which revolves around a coin stuck to the floor of the car. There are so many great shots of 1950s New York here, including Bowery Street, the Bronx, old trains, and many shots of landmarks and buildings. We ride on the train as it winds its way through apartment buildings, past webs of clotheslines, and around factories. We get a taste of what it must have been like to ride the old el through the eyes of different passengers, including a bum, a little girl, and a young man. This charming ode to a bygone era is a must see for anyone interested in vintage film of New York City, or vintage train cars and stations.
![New York Central Railroad Film: The Big Train (1950) [DVD]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41xe5uwp-zL._SL75_.jpg)
New York Central Railroad Film: The Big Train (1950) [DVD]The Big Train, made for the New York Central Railroad, shows how integral the railroad companies were to the growth and economy of the country, and makes the case for deregulation of the industry. Alfred Perlman, president of the NYCR, introduces the film and then takes the audience on a freight train ride through the country, cities, and industrial areas. These scenes are somewhat exciting for their melodramatic soundtrack and bombastic narration. Afterwards, Perlman reappears, pipe in hand, in order to levy the charge that the federal and state governments are strangling the railroad companies with taxes. He makes the case that other forms of transportation are not taxed, echoing a common argument of the time, all while cleaning his pipe.
![Railroad History Film: The Passenger Train (1955) [DVD]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51gC58kZqwL._SL75_.jpg)
Railroad History Film: The Passenger Train (1955) [DVD]The Passenger Train revolves around Bobby Watson's first train trip. It showcases the services and accommodations provided by a passenger train during the 50s. At the start of the film, we can see Bobby and his parents packing his bags, preparing for the trip. This is mirrored by the train's crew preparing for its travel. Good customer service was not only limited to the service given to the passengers while they were inside the train, it can also be seen in the service crew at the train station - the receptionist, the gateman, and the porter. As Bobby explored the train, its different sections were presented to the audience. Seat and room accommodations were shown like the Chair Car for short journeys, roomettes for single passengers undertaking long journeys, and bed rooms for passengers who travel in groups and need more space. Recreational places inside the train were also shown like the Dome Car and the Observation Car wherein passengers can watch the landscape, play board games, and socialize with others. Passengers were also shown to be greatly accommodated during meal times as waiters ring for them to go to the Dining Car and serve them with dishes prepared at the train's kitchen. The train's crew also proved to be reliable as they did not neglect watching over Bobby while he was on board, reminding him of his station, and helping him with his luggage. It was clear that Bobby had a great time on his way to Uncle Ray's ranch.
