  • Big thanks to the owner of ltex for making this possible lots of rare,old,new locomotives back there so join me as I go threw cabs and take you on a tour of the locomotives
    Yes guys I did Meet the Owner of the hole leading company of LTEX you may have saw some of his engines on freight trains but they was just possible the best of 2019! He did say he would have me come back when I’m off of school and have me actually run a real life active locomotive!

    The NYC unit is not a NYC original unit. It is an FL9 built for the New Haven railroad in 1959 but it was painted by Metro-North as a heritage unit. Still a great find, very sad to see it be scrapped, especially given it's very good condition

    15:21 is a shot (briefly) of one of the three EMD Factory Demo GP60's that CSX bought... 6897, 6898 and 6899.

    • @winkelmannchannel971
      @winkelmannchannel971 Před 3 lety +1

      Yeah the other two are still in service and I thought it would be 6897 apparently it was 6899 I know it would be one of those two because I know definitely 6898 Is still in service but 6897 might’ve been sold off to someone else but it might still be on CSX

    You should have read the “blue cards” inside the cab of each. That would tell you where it last came from. Most of those CSX locomotives came here from Hamlet NC.

    That unit painted in New York Central paint was not an original NYC unit.It was a New Haven FL9.Then the unit went to PC and CONRAIL before going to Amtrak.And the finally being painted in a special NYC Paint sceam.
