I really like this video. I discovered it a couple of years ago while searching for 765 videos. My grandson knows the sound of the 765s whistle and will come running if he hears it! Great nostalgic look and would have made an excellent ad for Coke.

Both are the "Real Thing"!
This excellent spot is the handiwork of Kelly Lynch, Vice President, PR and Media Guy with the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society.
Man I wish another photo shoot happens at the carland grain elevator again. Beautiful TV spot. I contacted the composer of the music some months ago to see if the music was available for purchase sadly it isn't. All the same beautiful Comercial I hope we get to see on TV one day.
This make me think of a new spot on 765 coming off a rebuild.They were out testing her.Man what a whistle!!That would get my attention real fast.As it goes I am a big fan of cokecola thanks to my grand parents.Two of my favorite things in the world trains and coke cola.You can not have a better ad on the tube.I hope they run this again next christmas.
The boy is putting together at the beginning some sort of O-27 layout. The end looks like the pre-war "Just like mine." painting. Cokes in BOTTLES! Has combined POLAR and Link feel. Various age groups at station. What is there not to like?
I remember those Coke crates. Must be getting old.....LOL
Wonderful!

If all TV ad spots were as thoughtfully put together as this one, TV would be much less painful to watch. But they aren't, and so I don't. (Of course, the wretched excuse for programming is another turn-off, but that's not the subject of the thread.)
Great Video!
Wow. That was fantastic and the sound was beautiful.
That was very nice!!!
