Off The Beaten Track

"Off The Beaten Track" was digitized from a 16mm film. The Philadelphia Chapter received this video from William Titus, whom was given permission from the owner (William Thomas (Swathmore, PA), to distribute to any organization that he wishes. The Philadelphia Chapter, having received permission to share the video, is now making this digitized film available to membership.

A viewer has since reached out with information pertaining to the origin of this video. It is possible that "Off the Beaten Track" (YouTube video) was a fan trip that actually operated on July 24, 1949 (not August 28, 1949) by the Philadelphia Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society. The Philly NRHST have their old "Cinders" newsletters scanned and on their website. Below link is to their June 1949 issue announcing what appears to have been this trip (same locations, at least).
