I surf around the 1939-40 worlds fair movies (many in color) on Youtube to see if there's any footage of the WF RR.I saw a tiny enticing bit once - amateur movie in the amusement area, people are getting on one of those tower rides (not the parachute jump), where you're taken up high in an open compartment, and the camera pans around the far. On this one, in color, the camera pans north, over the rest of the Fair, then pans east - you can see the cemetary, and for a few seconds it pans across the entire IND terminal - almost too fast to capture it by clicking the mouse to stop. Then the camera continues panning east going south, and for a few more precious seconds, captures an IND train, proceeding north towards the terminal. Even so, amazing.... like you've traveled back some 70 years. I was at a library computer so could not bookmark it, and didn't have time to email myself, info about the clip Many of these '39-'40 WF clips (or compilations of clips) are too long to watch at one sitting 20 mins + to about 1 hour +. That's a lot of Fair footage to sit through while you wait to see if there's any of the WF RR. |
