In the archives of the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum are several reel to reel tapes of Penn Central train announcements which were played in many stations across of the Penn Central and previously the New York Central System. The Museum has transferred these and would like to share two of them here with you as MP3s.
‘Attention please! Empire Service…’ – A Penn Central Railroad train announcement announcing Train 61 departing from Harmon Station.
‘Atention please! A local train to NY…’ – A Penn Central Railroad train announcement announcing a local train departing from Harmon Station and headed toward Grand Central terminal.
We will share more of these announcements in the future. We hope you enjoy them.
