Above is an old trade video promoting railroads. Rather than the usual shots of railroads driving hither and yon accompanied by cheerful music and a chipper narration, this video delivers its message via a scripted presentation.
The video is set in a cafe that the railroaders all gather in after their shifts. It features a spunky waitress, a short order cook who is a font of railroad statistics, several off-duty railroaders and a mysterious stranger who we would never guess is the reporter writing the upcoming story about railroads they're all discussing.
Altogether the staff and cliental of the place seem oddly obsessed over trains, but I guess it gets its message across.
