High Speed Santa Fe Pacing across the Ottumwa Subdivision
On June 1, 2024 we chased BNSF's Ottumwa Subdivision local eastbound between Burlington, IA and Cameron, IL just west of Galesburg. The power included a trio of former AT&SF locomotives including BNSF 636 & 169 still sporting their original warbonnet & yellowbonnet colors. Video locations included Gladstone, Kirkwood, & Monmouth, Illinois.

My first experience with Santa Fe warbonnets occurred on January 27, 1996 in Chillicothe, IL. On this day the weather was clear but bitterly cold. Temperatures were in the single digits with wind chills well below zero. That didn't deter this avid fan from capturing hotshots on their trip along Santa Fe's transcon (yes it was BNSF by then but it sure didn't look that way). The video was shot ne...

Nice rs3l
your videos are always calming to watch
The Chillicothe "station" used to be the club house. It was where crews would overnight before returning on a job to their home. It became the station when the wooden station behind where the photographer stood, burned in '59 or '60. My Dad & 3 other kids got a subcontract in the 1930s to hand dig the basement. The dirt was hauled away by mule and horse. In the '60s & early '70s on warm nights, many people from North Chillicothe (offical name until merging with Chillicothe) would filter down to the station at "train" times to see who was going and coming on the many passenger trains. This built a sense of community. I was always surprised how many people we would meet from our life in Peoria. My family did not believe in AC back then. (The houses were designed to be cool in summer, shaded by trees and warm in winter. So the heat was not bad.) But the windows must be kept open day and night, except in driving rain. I definitely miss falling asleep to the switcher horns moving cars around in the yards and hearing hot shot freight quickly dropping off and taking on crews.
Awesome Video What Tornado Siren in 20:44
Federal signal 2t22 or a 3t22 of some kind
Cool video
Rip the Wonderful S3L horn. Pure 1990s sound
0:54 i like the way the horn sounds as it passes by.
Cool! I see Q361 these days l, although now it’s M361
1:19 love the doppler effect of the horn
Yo yo Brian love your videos especially from the late 90s and maybe 2000 I was also going to say that today in Northern California where I live is mainly UP trains but out of the blue came not 1 but 2 BNSF trains on UP trackage and was able to caught all of them there was one in the Fake bonnet scheme after I saw the trio of the H2 and 2 H1s
Sad to think BNSF is basically running the last of the B40-8Ws into the ground...
I don’t think the Amtrak 156, 66, 822, and 184 aren’t be able to be repaired. So it’s gonna have to be scrapped or replaced into Phase V.
This is fantastic! Love the Peavine
It was so good back then...
Love it!
Excellent train video memories I enjoyed watching.I have so many models of these in trainsets in Ho scale. 👍
I am a new subscriber.
I love the paint scheme and the gp60m
I was born in 2001, but man, the 90s seemed pretty cool, and BNSF Atsf heritage units seemed more common back then. Wish they could bring them back
Fantastic footage Brian. Sad this line is now truncated.
Oh cool, I live 5 minutes from here!
This is great footage! I love the fresh paint on that standard cab dash 9 too! Shame this part of the route will never see trains again though ;<
Any way i do miss that nice blue yellow engine and the rest of that train set which I haven't seen that kind of Santa Fe before always Red and silver. But it was nice that had blue and yellow Santa Fe train set
My 5 th favorite train the Santa Fe beautiful red and silver train which is awesome. Long time ago when I was 14 or 15 years old i had Santa Fe train set but instead of red and sliver it was Blue and yellow quite interesting. But unfortunately the rails cars and the train engine derailed off the bridge and broke. Sadly the engine was ruined and couldn't work any more and my cars broke too. Couldn't keep it so I fortunately my mom told me also the grandmother told me to throw out in the garage. So I carefully looked at it see how bad it is broken and couldn't get it fixed so I unfortunately i had to throw it out rotten shame it was a nice beautiful blue and yellow engine and nice train set too
Awesome Racing
Hey Brian… we need a short of that opening scene, plz. 🫶🏼🤯
A favorite of mine along the Chilli sub!
One of my favorite places!!!!! Used to fish under the trestle.
The Santa Fe scheme was is awesome, I wish that BNSF would make some frickin good heratage units. instead of goofy stickers.
Brian Sellers can you upload two more BNSFs late 90s videos right now please?
Those trains weren't wasting any time.
Now the old station is gone, the crossing has been upgraded and there are stacks of new ties that are being installed on the sub.
1:40 an Ex-LMS with a NATHAN P3? O_o
The fact that those semaphores lasted until the line’s demise is remarkable. Do you know what kind of traffic was handled on this line, and if there were any major customers?
CSX ran a couple freights to and from St Louis + occasional autoracks and extras. CP and later INRD seemed to run a daily "turn" to Louisville. In the end, just INRD ran a train or two daily, which wasn't profitable enough to keep the line open.
where did EMDX 1609 &1610 end up at??
Last I heard, they returned to EMD and were sitting at their site in McCook IL.
@@atsf93 ok, thank you!
Originally they were to be delivered to CSX in Cincinnati for testing.
I just saw 3 of them on a UP Train WB a few days ago on the UP Clinton Sub
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Do you recall how fast?
I remember that day.
Trains in those days looked so much faster
Awsome!

That bridge going over Vine Street in St Bernard was the last time I ever saw a Chessie loco in 2004
Great video thank you! I used to watch the trains as a kid in Carthage up by the Distillery in the 80's. When Conrail and Chessie ruled and Norfolk Southern and CSX were just emerging
One mile every 36 poles! "Folks out there tell the time of day.... "
Nice video, I enjoy the Early csx stuff.
Awesome I know this place 😀🙌❤️
Curious why it goes into single track once the Toledo sub veers off to the left by the Rally's? I assume it's because of the bridge going over Spring Grove?
Yes this is the "head on connection" over Spring Grove Ave that allowed B&O trains to reach the CH&D / CSX Toledo Subdivision without making a backup move near NA Tower in St Bernard.
I didn't remember the northbound Winton Place signal having a 3rd marker on Main 2. I guess that was changed when the 3rd Main was added?
Likely so. The 3rd main was being constructed at this time.
so ns did buy that line of cincinatii
Great stuff from the east end!
