Hey, guys, don't forget that this video was mostly likely made from 8mm or 16mm silent film. Silent film typically runs at 16 frames per second (fps), while "talkies" and television/video run at 24 fps. When 16 fps is transferred to 24 fps, it make every activity in the 16mm film look like it is going like a bat out of Hades. I seriously doubt these trains were actually moving at the speeds they look like thety are moving.
