new, old 1218 video on YouTube

[NW Mailing List]

Ross:
Thank you very much! I really enjoyed that and I'm sure others will too. I've watched it twice already! Interesting the engines are in sinc (or nearly) in sight at Lafayette and Glen Lyn but   they are out of sinc at Arthur for the outstanding sound effects! I believe that is OWL in the video. Is that the notorious wife behind him?
