Could be a relly nice shoy with some editing.

I dunno. It really captures the nature of the LIRR right of way at that point, with many tracks and PRR position lights. I lived in this area (161st St between Jamaica Av and Hillside) in the early 60's-I was little then-and remember my dad taking me up here to Union Hall St to watch the parade. In those days, there were still FM C Liners running, and in my dim memory from that era, this scene is what comes to mind, except the equipment was of an earlier era. I like it.
