“Two Films from the Chapter’s Archives” presented by Aaron Heverin
1 - Buffalo Southern Double-header, shot on September 3, 1995 by Jim Van Brocklin. This video shows some great footage of Buffalo Southern, Susquehanna, and Conrail engines shot from the Tifft Street overpass bridge looking toward the former Lehigh Valley Tifft Yard. Jim captured this footage while out on one of his railroad “exploration” trips.
2 - From the collection of Pete Gores comes this fascinating look at the Rochester Subway under construction. Photographer Henry Engler shot this short film in 1925 & 1926 just prior to the Rochester Subway officially opening in December 1927. If anything, this film is a glimpse at the City of Rochester in the late 1920s.
