Post subject:  PBS TV Show: The Pennsylvania Railroad

Philadelphia's PBS station, WHYY TV12, has produced a one-hour program on the PRR. The show turned out to be very good, and featured on-camera talks by Dave Dunn and Kurt Bell of the RR Museum of PA.

There's a mix of archival photos and movies, reminisces of former PRR employees, historians talking history and two in-cab interviews with current Amtrak engineers running passenger on the old PRR.

It aired Tuesday, 1-15-2002, on TV12 in Philadelphia and they will repeat it Friday 1-18 at 10.00PM, Sunday 1-27 at 7.00PM, and Tuesday 1-29 at 3.00AM. I expect it to appear on other Pennsylvania PBS stations, and I recommend that stations outside PA show it as well.
