Thanks for the compliments guys!
Hartman, I didn't film that much of the Western Half. Next time I will for sure.
Tom, I did notice a difference when on the train, but keep in mind the clips on the electrified portion are played much faster than the non-electrified.
Ted, There is one frame where Strasburg's SW8 is out and about with a few freight cars. I used a suction mount with my GoPro to get the video. As far as the PV ban, most of that is not actually true. Rather than banning Private Varnish cars, Amtrak simply restricted the stations where these cars can be attached to help keep trains on time. Additionally, they imposed more rules to encourage safe operation. It makes PV traveling a bit more scarce, but still is allowed and a lot of fun
Dan- The baggage car is generally at the head end of the train for the Pittsburgh line.
