Neat.
Being old enough to have shot some 8mm, I think the quality of this video (especially the shots of the running gear) is really good.

Great find Rusty. On that video between the 9 ~ 21 second mark it shows a Union Pacific locomotive I had never seen before.
After searching online I found it was an experimental 1938 GE Steam Turbine. This locomotive was delivered to Union Pacific in 1939. UP ran it around there system and then gave it back to General Electric after testing it for a few months. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..._turbine_locomotives
