In this video, we also see Amtrak's International that ran to Toronto. This train has now been discontinued. It has been replaced by the Bluewater, who's service now ends here at Port Huron.

At Greenwich the CSX crosses the Conrail (ex-Big Four) mainline. This line runs between Cleveland and Indianapolis through Marion, Ohio.

days of the greatest variety of intermodal cars. i love the diamond smshing
Even The train horns sounded different from today…..love all the Dash 2’s & vintage Rolling Stock
Crisp 2000s footage
OUTSTANDING.
Why are the trains going at such a high speed over the diamond compared to todays speed.
It was probably a different styled diamond that was made for high-speed, it was replaced sometime in 2010s. Speed could of also been restricted due to it being in a town or from the derailments.
@@NWORails Okay, thanks.
You are very welcome, I'm not too sure though. Lol. Those are my best thoughts. I hope you have a great day.
Yeah buddy!! Just subscribed!!
Diamond wobble mostly all of the cars
Dang that was a lot of foreign power, NS, BN, NYSW, UP, SF, HLCX, CR. Great video!
telegraph poles....love it
Wow. The glory days of the 90s. Thank you for posting. Part of me is still there. Thank so for showing the cars, not just the locomotives. So many vintage cars gone now. Wow. The difference 20 plus years makes.
thank you for sharing this! it's amazing to be able to watch stuff that seems like from such a long time ago, I love it!! wish there could be more train varieties that come through nowadays if you know what I mean by that, like instead of it all being CSX now, have some other ones come Through
Cooooool
4:00 that one was FLYING around 60, they had to limit down to 40 for too much bouncing at trackspeed I guess..
Was the 40 speed limit placed after the crash in 2002 if it was in 2002
@@notarotomwithhair5637 Maybe.
19 years later Delay in block productions was at Desler Ohio czcams.com/video/NLZVEmsr6OY/video.html
At the beginning of Hornpocolypse.
It sounds like CSX 7748 has a K123A45(hybrid K5LA) horn.
The year before I was born. Man would I have given ANYTHING to be able to film all that back then.
A decade or so before this you could have talked to the Train Dispatcher for the Toledo-Cinci main. He was right there in the Tower!
@@b3j8 ah man. I would have given anything to talk to him
@@cpttankerjoe Yeah, me too Joe! I hate to admit it but I only made it over to Deshler once in the late 1970's and only stayed for a couple trains before moving on to Fostoria. Opportu ity lost for sure.
@@b3j8 I lived in deshler from 03-08 and let me tell you it was some of the best years of my life. Where I am now at 20 I can’t go anywhere without telling my mom when where for how long. While in deshler it was “ok be back home by dusk” or something along those lines. I miss those days with a passion
@@cpttankerjoe Well, at 61 I've got afew yrs on ya, but I grew up that same way over in Northern Indiana. I understand what you're saying. Sad for you younger fans that so much railroading is history.
That's very good sound quality
and conrail was still alive
The comment ruiner is here Conrail dissolved 3 months earlier on june 1, 1999
this when wide cab train we all kown was new
Any railway footage from Ontario like London or Toronto?
It is interesting to note some of the changes to railroad technology since this was recorded. Note all the overhead wires and poles that don't exist any more. Some of the signals that have been upgraded. The tall radio tower that was erected nearby which has satellite connectivity for comms and positive train control, etc.
I would’ve loved to have been around during this time, so much variety in terms of power
I miss these days. Much better than the dark blue joke CSX is now.
Not a lot of graffiti seen on these cars unlike today shithole.
Back when motive power variety still existed and everything wasn't a GE widecab.
just wondering in the modern day since like with the Vermonter route which used to run to Canada but cut but to the US border like this one and since they're trying to restore service on that route. Do you think it makes sense to go through the work of restoring service from Chicago to Toronto? Rail wise it all there and safe and both Amtrak and via runs trains right up to the foot of the tunnel. Would the whole legal process be worth it? Cause I could see a charger and few superliners running the line
The demand for Chicago to Toronto rail service is absolutely there, the sticking points would be making sure they can improve the security/border patrol process to get passengers adequately and properly vetted before crossing the border. (And to make sure the process doesn’t take too long. That affects travel time for sure.) The only other big obstacle is politics; the current presidential administration probably wouldn’t want to consider this train coming back, despite it being at the border with Canada, not Mexico.
so 5901 had a K5l ?
It's nice to see train videos where I live!
Jon B. Rails Video Archive Greenwich is the point where the CSX New Castle Sub crosses the former Conrail big four main line from berea between Cleveland and Columbus
Man look at all of the Conrail.
Damn, the 90's, even up to the late 90's, trains had so much variety in different types of cars and vibrancy of motive power. Also, no graffiti is always refreshing to look at.
Railroading as I remember it, before every train had two wide cabs leading. Also F Tower was open 24-7 and providing local control of the interlocking 👍
When will you go back to Deshler?
I got a question, has any videos over the years of those old crossings over there ever been filmed or photographed the crossings?
18 years later and so much has changed here..
Fostoria was alot busier and better in those days
Jon Thanks for the Memories the Videos from 1995-2009 are the Best i love Automotive Trains and everything by NS AND CSX THE EARLY YEARS OF THE POST CONRAIL OF 1999-2009
Glad you enjoy the video. Look for Part 2 later this month
Excellent Catch
Awesome stuff. I love railroads in the 90's.
Isn’t soo 6061 the last sd60m in soo color I know now the repainted it
Do you live in Ohio, cause I do
I actually live in Michigan. Ohio has better trains though...
Ok, GO BUCKEYES!
Nice Video
In these days, Leaser and Foreign power on the CSX was very very common. Sadly this era ended in 2005.
I wouldn’t say that I feel it ended in the 2010’s around 2015 but I feel when it truly become a joke was in May of 2018 because it was like someone suddenly just cut off the water valves
I liked Fostoria Ohio before the railpark was put in place
It was better in someways before the park was built, I have to agree.
I mean, you could go all over that field, and you could get some nice camera angles, now they have limited that space down. I was only there once before the railpark was put in place.
