Penn Central Around Columbus, Ohio From the Cab in 1971

Some of the footage here is seen in another video and I had some leftover footage that wasn't long enough to warrant its own video. It made more sense to make one comprehensive Columbus video, though the footage is shown in the order it was spliced together, not by location.

This was taken by Paul Geiger, who was furloughed from being a tower operator in 1971. He shortly went to train service until being hired back as a tower operator the following year.
