I found these amazing podcasts on Spotify highlighting steam action in the Buffalo and western NY area from the late 40's into the late 50's courtesy of John Prophet's wire recordings. It can be a bit 'talky' at times but the vintage audio is absolutely amazing. There is a lot of PRR and NYC audio captured and a lot of it very rewind-worthy.

I found a non-spotify link for anyone interested:

I have a copy of 'Prophet's Pennsy'. Very nice book.

I listen to these on long road trips for work mostly. I like driving to the sound of steam!

Norm,

  Based on your recommendation and your post today, I bought this book. I've been aware of him for several years as he was a co-founder of the PRR Technical & Historical Society, but never got around to getting the book.
