Description: In the mid-1950's, railfans from all over the world visited the New York & Long Branch Railroad to observe the last stand of the legendary Pennsylvania Railroad Class K4 Pacific-type steam locomotives. Thirty years later, they returned from the swan song of NJ Transit's classic E8 diesels and ex-Pennsy GG1 electrics. This program presents the fascinating story of the Long Branch. Following a brief history of the railroad, you'll tour the line and view K4s in action at many interesting locations. The famous engine change from steam to GG-1 electrics at South Amboy is fully illustrated. You'll also visit the nearby steam-powered Raritan River Railroad and observe the colorful first-generation PRR and CNJ diesels, which replaced steam. The program includes a brief look at the Long Branch as the North Jersey Coast Line of NJ Transit. From K4s to F40s, this is the definitive history of the LongBranch! 60 Minutes *DVD* Full Color Archive Film and Video Written, Produced and Edited by Marc S. Balkin - Narrated by Bill Zagorski
