Thanks. What train is the "Delayed 30 Minutes" sign referring to?

Those look like screenshots from a movie or TV show.

You are correct sir. They're from Blow Out from 1981.

John Travolta and Nancy Allen starred in that film.

There were also some PCC scenes too.

That's it, I didn't want to spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it. John Lithgow , Nancy Allen, and John Travolta gave stunning performances , as well as Dennis Franz.

Thanks, Bill Newkirk

What's with the steam? Those cars had electric heat. Looks like the Ronkonkoma branch in the 1960's Diesel pulled coaches with a steam generator in the ALCO C-420

I saw that too, probably special effects, incorrect for that time, for the movie. Thanks Fulton Frank
