Remarkable Engines: ELS 600
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 02. 2021
- There are numerous railroads that have their own treasures with rare pieces of rolling stock. One of these includes the Escanaba and Lake Superior Railway with its incredibly diverse roster including Baldwins, ex-Conrail GP38s, and an ex-Milwaukee Road FP7! [And yes, I am aware that they have the last two remaining Baldwin Sharknoses stored there before you write that in the comments] This F unit has been in service for 70 years for five different railroads on a variety of tasks.
After months of searching for a new video editor, I finally found DaVinci Resolve with MUCH more enhanced features than Windows Video Editor. Even though it did take some time to edit this long-awaited episode, I feel that it's the best episode I made in the series to date, and might as well go grand for the 20th episode of Remarkable Engines!
I would like to personally thank these two great CZcams channels who allowed me to use their rare footage of this locomotive, as their clips greatly enhanced the experience of this video and increased its overall quality.

Still amazed by the fact that this unit has being in service all these years and somehow managed to dodge the requirement for ditch lights on the front...
If it's from before 1947, it doesn't need them
@@DebsEugeneV its actually dec 31st 1948 for the grandfather date... ELS 600 was built in 1951
I knew about ELS 600, but I didn't know that it is the _last_ F-unit in revenue service... or that it had such a varied career! Now, I know it has been used on long-distance passenger trains on the Milwaukee Road (in both its own livery and UP yellow), commuter trains in Chicago, freight trains near the city of Milwaukee, an FRA inspection train in 1978 (with Budd Silverliners and a Milwaukee Road observation car), as a mere backup generator, on tourist trains in Wisconsin _and_ Michigan, and now, on logging freight trains on the Escanaba and Lake Superior Railway!
Thanks for the information!
Amazing Video! As a Person who catch ELS 600, I loves to film ELS 600 when I can
I absolutely love your videos. You voice fits these train videos precisely. Keep em coming brother
Excellent video!
Thank you very much!
@@Pensyfan19 I shared it too the FB group too, great content you have!
I saw, thank you bery much for doing that as it's shedding light on a small channel from a large and great one such as yourself
The Miltary budget could handle a $32 Billion cut for the FRA and FTA
Can’t wait!
What’s the difference between FP units and F units?
Edit: It's in the video. The FPs are longer to accomidate a steam heater and water tank.
Cool that looks awesome!
Amazing video, although I believe on the Grafton and Upton railroad in Massachusetts, they have an F7A numbered 720A, that rarely, but still does pull revenue freight service. It is currently out of service for repairs but I'm pretty sure it will be put back in service later. Yes, G&U is a revenue freight railroad.
Closest thing I can find is G&U 1501, which was last seen running around 2019, but if it's restored for revenue freight service I'll be sure to cover it. I feel a bunch of news agencies might cover the story upon restoration, so that'll give it some good light.
@@Pensyfan19 My bad, it is 1501, I believe it was 720A before being repainted and renumbered to it's current road number and paint scheme. Thanks for letting me know, and I hope the G&U gets some light shed on it as it just recently started back up again after years of inactivity.
Suggestion for this series- E&LS 503. It was a former GTW and bnsf
I second arrow III.......great video
Great Northern F3 Unit 274 Still works on the oregon scenic railroad to this day Just Telling you
Thank you for the info, but this railroad is a tourist railroad instead of a revenue freight railroad.
Nice video man .
Ontario Southland still runs F units in Freight Service
True, but they're in Canada and not in the U.S.
Hi from Green Bay!! I researched the history of this FP7, and itrs 2 other sisters, 96-b is thr standard F7-b now at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, and the 2nd diesel FP7A is 96-C formerly used by the Indiana Railway Museum in Noblesville but evicted and actually forced by court odrer to move but by semi trucks, also with N.K.P. 587//2-8-2 Mikado now at Raveena, Ky, next to C&O 2716 2-8-4 Kanawha being rebuilt; but diesel 96c was formerly painted in MONON RR Gray and red and used on the FAIRTRAIN SHUTTLE, but after the Inrym eviction 96c was being stored by the Fort Wayne Rr Mus., that runs the NKP 765 2-8-4 Berkshire in excursions; thus it will be 100% Possible to get All 3 of the 96 A/B/C units together, and rebuild them to fully approved Amtrak standards, and repainted with "HIAWATHA" orange and maroon, for special excursions. Text me for further plans, ok!! All Aboard!! HIGHBALL !!-! SIGNED, Steven Solway. Green Bay, WI. Wed., August 24, 2022, A.D.
Hi!!-! Hwppy th2t you like the story of the fp7a !! Go Packers !!!!! Lol!!!!!
Any info on its horn?
Any updates on her?
what happened to the 1594 episode (pro tip make a episode on fec 153)
I believe its out of service now, with a bad traction motor?
no ditch lights?
I assume the engine was grandfathered in.
Thanks for stealing my photo and not giving me any form of credit what so ever! 0:21 and 8:29
I apologize for this inconvenience and if I forgot to include your name in the video credits. There is a copyright disclaimer in the description which states that I'm under the fair use protection for educational videos. I found your photo and a few others from the ELS Fanclub Facebook page, but I didn't see a name associated with the photo and didn't know who to credit.
The photo was found on a Google images search for the locomotive, and was specifically found here:

@@Pensyfan19 There was a name associated with my picture as I gave the owner of that page permission to use it and he stated my name in the post as well as I commented serval times under the same post as I personally know the admin of that page.
@@ELSModeler400 In that case, I apologize for not including the name in the video credits. I listed the Facebook page as one of my sources in the video description, thus giving credit to photos from that page.
How about Illinois central 382 and the amount of times it crashed?
I think Thunderbolt Productions already covered this locomotive in his documentary on Casey Jones, but I may consider this for Train Facts.
@@Pensyfan19 he did not do the stuff that happened after Casey
@@OldIronVideo Alright. I'll try to incorporate it for the channel somehow.
Also the newest engine is 503 not 502
I meant that 502 was the newest locomotive built on the roster, since 503 was built in 1970 while 502 was built in 1980. Either way, every locomotive on the railroad's roster has a long story to them.
@@Pensyfan19 Oh ok I see what you meant now. Also yes indeed they all have long and interesting histories!
Haha Its that one railroad with that hobo who makes the railroad look like a crappy railroad!
Great video though.
Who? 600? The other Geeps and SDs wish they could look as nice as that F unit.
@@Pensyfan19 Jason allision
@@wrrail His footage actually made the railroad look pretty good in this case.
Hard to understand the narrator
I apologize of I was going a bit fast, or if the music was overpowering at any point.
Yes at times the music drowned out your voice and at times the voice trailed off.
@@buzz191saw I will try my best to improve this aspect, as I have recognized this problem in some of my older videos. This video in particular was uploaded a day late, and I had little time to edit it the next day, so I didn't put much thought into the music choice in this one. Some of my recent episodes before this one have better audio quality since I had more time to edit them.
That tomato soup is THE ugliest livery I've ever seen. Was it "hangover Saturday" at the paint shop?
