  • @michaelpiatkowskijr1045
    @michaelpiatkowskijr1045 Před 18 hodinami

    The most interesting thing is the UP is on the far track. Normally, they run the near rail because they're yard is the right side of the camera. This means the BNSF may have had to stop. Normally, BNSF would run the far track and the UP would "cross over" to their line. I use cross over loosely because the BNSF comes in on the near track coming in from the right. UP comes straight into the near track. The far track goes to the K&O.

  • @donnaj9964

    The ponderous delicacy of the track-repairing equipment was simply fascinating--and the music was (as always!) perfect. The parade of MOW equipment was pretty cool too, and it's always nice to see the Rocky Mountaineer. Thanks for another great one!

    • @abpsd73
      @abpsd73 Před 20 hodinami

      It's called a lift frog, the siding traffic wheel flanges go up and over the main rail, that way the main line doesn't have a gap in the main rail like a conventional frog would have. Eliminating the main rail gap allows higher speeds, no "clack clack" noise, and less maintenance versus a gapped rail that would be pounded into oblivion with high traffic.
