Hey all, I recently found this site...

http://www.vintagerailroadaudio.com/Default.aspx

I wanted to purchase a couple CD's but first I wanted to to see if anyone else here has ever purchased from this site before and could confirm that this site is legit. I'm just covering my bases, since I recently got scammed out of $30 in an online transaction. So I'm a tad bit paranoid lol

yes I have, its for real, I got a South Shore Audio, I was looking for Little Joe sounds and they had it.

Very extensive collection from the not so common sources.

go buy, happy audiophile.

The operation I would call more your backwoods personal guy in the Garage, doesnt change what they offer.

Recordings of railroad equipment? To me, this is just another reason why we need to restore, preserve, and operate this equipment.

You mean the railroad equipment or the tape decks and LP turntables?

As someone with too large a railroad audio collection myself (to my wife's chagrin), I will tell you that a GREAT many things captured on audio tape by the likes of John Prophet, Brad Miller, Peter Handford, O. Winston Link, Hal Lewis, et al can NEVER be re-staged or repeated.

A PRR commuter train making time on the New York & Long Branch behind a K4s, making stop every mile and a half, with the P70's banging merrily all the way.

A N&W Y hauling a train of 70-ton hoppers up Blue Ridge on jointed rail.

A C&O or SR train on the Washington & Old Dominion.

A GG1 at speed on the PRR main line.

The Western & Atlantic General. (If we don't see it steamed next year, well, all bets are off.)

A CB&Q O5s roaring an express down the three-track Q "racetrack" through the Chicago suburbs at 70 mph, one 14-L crossing whistle after another, with a spectacular Doppler shift on the whistle as it passes.

NYC Hudsons, PRR T1's, Reading Pacifics, UP Big Boys, C&O/PRR 2-10-4's.... Multitudes of lines that no longer exist...........
