Here’s an old school video that has been with some overlapping interests of mine on the highway enthusiasts groups recently – The Keystone Shortway.
This was by the Pennsylvania Department of Highways, the predecessor of PennDOT.
The Keystone Shortway is better known as Interstate 80. A few KEYSTONE SHORTWAY banners were still around when I was at Penn State. I have heard a few people say the Shortway instead of I-80 as well.
The video includes several interests of mine:
- interstate highways
- music used in NFL Films; in the case, from the De Wolfe library
- skiing – Camelback Mountain, where I skied several times, is shown
- kayaking (though I’m the flatwater kind)
- Penn State including Nittany Lions football
It’s about 30 minutes long.

Another video from proto-PennDOT – ‘Round the State on Pennsylvania’s Interstates from 1967.
