Rails and Ties Productions

Either by direct search or suggested video, welcome! you've made your way to the Rails and Ties Productions Channel. Based out of upstate New York, my mission like many other rail enthusiasts is to preserve the era of railroading I was born into.There are three main railroads in the Tristate area not far from my hometown that I visit frequently, those being: Pan Am Southern, Vermont Railway, and The Batten Kill. Between the three lines there is not a single GE locomotive owned, which is an incredible thing considering the current rosters of most modern railroads. Pan Am Railways- commonly referred to as Pan Am Southern because of their joint venture with Norfolk Southern corp- employs a fleet of 2nd and 3rd, and even a few 1st generation EMD locomotives. The same can be said for the Vermont Railway who connects with Pan Am Southern at North Bennington,VT- with the addition of a few 4th generations, namely their new duo of EMD SD70M-2s.
