Our VRF Grab Bags (GB) videos are compiled from content from our cameras as Mods and fans spot something neat while watching our cameras. In the GB you will, of course, find a variety of TRAIN content, special trains, maintenance, steam, diesels, interesting rail cars, cool paint schemes and more. You will also find fun people, city events, boats, planes, cars (sometimes going wild) and nature. Thank you for taking the time to sit back and enjoy these highlight reels that we call "Grab Bags"!
I like it that train engineers know where the cameras are!
We we first started it was rare, as time went on, little by little the waves started. We are honored so many give us a honk or a wave now days! Glad you enjoy it too!
@@joepeach997 Yes indeed--it's always fun!
One of these days, you're going to catch a tornado.
We watch a funnel cloud drift over Cordele I think almost 2 years ago
Great Harriet Tubman portrait on the box car. Also nice to see the Tropicana cars coming back in some form.
Thank you for including the weather scenes.
Great video as always, it’s really cool how cameras all over the country can see all of these cool and rare engines
I'm old enough to remember when Tropicana reefers were painted bright orange.
I'm old enough to have been a conductor on a couple of those trains.
Thanks VRF. At Waycross CSX 328 had taken a Clobber from that tree. The early morning light at Skykomish was nice to see and contrasted with the evening light at Revelstoke. Good to see all those Trains.
I was thinking "But you shoulda seen the other guy" about the tree. I'll bet it was a pretty intense moment.
*early morning - at Revy in the potash separation clip
@@jeffeastmond8481 Hi Buddy, thanks for that. I'm in the UK, so that's my excuse. But the two views were a nice contrast to one another, i thought.
11:23 is the train going into emergency!
"Don't tell Mom!"
Yes because it came apart. As soon as it separates, the air dumps completely.
Liked the two rail trains but the Cordele was the best with the SD40s leading 🤩 have been lucky to be in Skykomish when the Boeing train goes thru, awesome sight.
The weather scene at the end was terrific. Nature's fury! Thanks.
The smashed up CSX unit at 10:06 was certainly headed into Rice Yard to be removed for repair, as the restricting signal they had would indicate. They didn't just hit a branch, they hit one massive tree with that much nose damage. There's two large crash pillars in the nose, just inside the nose door. The CP grain train that parted and went into emergency shows why we're taught to keep pulling when an unplanned emergency application happens. The rear of the train might keep moving far enough to crash into the front part if you stop too fast. The storm at Deshler near the end was part of a system that generated at least two tornadoes, straight-line winds of nearly 100 mph, and over 300K without power in NE Ohio.
It's Thursday afternoon Grab Bag filled with a lot of awesome trains
and it doesn't get much more better than this thank you.🇺🇲🇨🇦
🇨🇦🇺🇲🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲🇨🇦
Wow! Excellent catching all the trains in multiple locations, I like them, they're awesome, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much and have a nice day and night.
15:08 Impressive telephoto lens.
10:11 Must be a branch line
Excellent, lol.
OUCH!!! and lolol!!!
The double rainbow and the lightening were really cool.
27:10 Rain in Belen? That's pretty rare. An inch of top soil and six feet of compact clay. It doesn't take much to have street flooding.
Wish we'd gotten some of it up here in Utah--it looked like a real gullywasher.
20:40 the two yellow "stacks" on the barge in the river look like a pencil with an eraser and a ruler.
Jinx!!
It makes me sad to see those wonderful Santa Fe Warbonnets looking so rough; sure wish BNSF would give them a fresh coat of paint, in their original color scheme of course.
THAT, would be great but don't wait for it to happen.
It’s amazing they are still in their Santa Fe scheme. Also I like those beacon lights they’ve put on the roofs first wide cabs I’ve seen with them. Are those radio controlled units?
@AppalachianMountaineer1863 they are. BNSF has already converted quite a few of them for RCL duty in Galesburg, Barstow, and Northtown, MN which is where these 4 were headed.
They should freshen them up. They would look awesome with new paint and new engines!!
Agreed! Those units look like cancer survivors. And BNSF has hundreds of sevl dozens of old paint scheme SF units. As such, it’s a built-in heritage stable…ready made for sprucing up the ol units!
Lots of action from Cordele here. And the Tropicana juice cars there were a nice surprise. As was Atlantic Coast Line hu 1871.
It was quite a lot of noise when the potash train separated at Revy, the locals are used to the crossing being blocked for minutes or so, not over 30! made a fun talking point at the time :)
I love these videos 😊😊❤❤
11:22 At first I though it was the brake coupling hitting the pavement at the crossing, but a closer look shows it's about 2 cars beyond the crossing.
The brake line separation emergency stop was about the most orderly I've ever seen. If it was a coupler or coupling pin, they must have had spares on board.
Some really pretty catches in this--another great one!
Wait....Nothing happened in La Grange? Weird!🤨😃
Sure, 9:26
@@joepeach997 You know, cars on the tracks, fender benders...?
WOW😮VRF Thanks
from what i found those for warbonets are going up to northtown yard for ptc testing
Thanks always awsome
Thank you....this was awesome ❤
*Awesome Catches*
Always enjoy seeing all the different power,consist,and distributed power!1🛤🚂😄
Good Thunderstorm in Belen & Deshler ! Bye Roy Rogers in Cumberland 😂😂
Honestly at this point if they STILL have Santa Fe engines sitting around and are putting upgrades on them for mainline use... Might as well just repaint them in original Santa Fe colors. It's not like having them repainted that way is magically gunna split the railroad back into the ATSF and BN.
Wow, fast work, just saw that CN grain train going by La Plata live!
I saw 14:35 At La Plata
Awesome Videos. 👍🏼
WHOA! Look at all those 737s
NO WAY! 2 birthday trains and Virtual Railfan Video! AWESOME!!
Nice double rainbow at the end.
Wow 😲 VRF is fantastic.
28:13 is it just me or does that look like a white mushroom cloud
Nice taco bell VRF
Nice

I had to go back and forth to figure out what was on the front of that engine at 10:30. It turned out to be a large piece of a tree!
3:29 nice show of the complete passing of the Boeing 737 plane train.
The 'Branch' arrow was interesting. Was hoping you would follow up with an arrow on the other side that read "Dents from Rest of Branch".
The Grab Bag was pretty big today and left little time to creative, great idea though.
4:16 guess u cpuld say "planes, trains, amd automobiles"
and you just did lol!
Looks like CSX328 won the fight with the tree but needs a little bodywork.
Not seen much from Chehalis, did the camera give out?
AIUI, the Chehalis camera is still operational, but it's been moved from VRF to another channel. No idea why, nor whose decision that was.
This away trough Canada
Whatever happened to Pan Am's Office Cars Fleet?
Those Santa Fe engines used to be bright red on the nose
@ 9:54 ... when a freight train goes through downtown La Grange without any accidents
@ 10:15 ... if a tree falls on a moving locomotive, it branches out.
@11:37 ... it is Revelstoke, so perhaps there is a wandering bear or two on the tracks?
@23:15... military machines on the rail-cars: I think I have seen over the past few months at least one of these trains with military cargo on each video release and I begin to realize just how much war-related equipment America really has. As a resident of a NATO country, I am glad to see such preparedness, even as I pray that it will NEVER be needed for actual warfare, but could be available to help out when natural disasters strike.
Nice to have you Neighbor.
11:27 the train came apart. Pretty obvious.
11:18. Doggone hitch hikers!
What?
Ok I saw the emergency at Revelstoke but what was the other emergency stop?
23:55
@@joepeach997 Both of them looked as if they ruined somebody's day, but how do you get a train together after it separates like the one in Revy did? Is it automated? I didn't see any people go near it.
@@donnaj9964 The conductor of the Potash train at Revy is hidden behind the large bush. Just after the train was coupled together he crossed through the rear of the TCMX hopper (not shown on the clip)
@@jeffeastmond8481 That helps--thank you!
Who else misses the old signals they used to have
I do.
@@pzkw6759 the searchlights
I'm going to venture to guess that the barges were carrying graphite
3:50 The rail cars have a bulkhead for crash protection? Based on track record-(pun/phrasing) they knew these things were trying to crash before they bolt the wings on! They even spelled “Boing” wrong.😊
Did that guy in the white truck wait 3 hrs for the train to get going again?
16:22 heracy 😢😢😢😢
At least the forward half looks normal
Look like those santa fe warbonnet heading to scrapheap
Still in service
1946: I see plenty of those in western Mass.
Hi Virtual Railfan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Virtual Railfan & Friends Randy
My first 'love' is trains.
My second 'love' is weather.
You gave me the most extreme of both in this video!!
Thanks, "VIRTUAL RAILFAN" for the countless hours of relaxation, amazement, and entertainment
I must ask (and I'm an amateur with railroads), how do they load such a long welded rail onto that big of a train?
From the end
What is in the tall covered cars at the front and end of the Boeing train
Hi
This might be a silly question, but Canadian crew on the CN train thru Ft Madison?
New crew in Galesburg
BNSF crew on CN power, CN has no trackage rights on the Transcon
11:30
Wow...The BIP is in my neck of the woods.About the only trains left around here anymore.Were they getting some new equipment or just getting some repaired?
Still so sad seeing KCS running on the CP.
Hopefully those warbonets aren’t headed for the cutting torch.
Nope
BRICK
Any bear sightings at Revelstoke?
Not since the first couple of sightings in April
11:20 Did the grain train lose half of its train?
Not a grain train, Canpotex Potash train separated.
If anyone has a video of the full ATSF war bonnet train lmk
Santa Fe Units look like they are taking their Last Ride on the High Rails before they go to the Big Junk Yard in the Sky. 🤔☹️👎🙏
Nope just transferring
24:59 What did he do here?
23:59 was an air loss, followed by the Train going into an Emergency stop. He was checking to see where the problem was.
@@joepeach997 Thanks
Some questions about the grab bag:
1) what type of MOW equipment was that at 1:41?
2) at 10:17, that train at Waycross must have been on a branch line!
3) 24:15, Godzilla noise!
4) what was the green and white sticker on the nose of the CN engine at 25:44 on the Ft. Madison cam?
1:41 Plasser American dynamic tamper.
25:44 It indicates First Aid kit inside.
@@J3scribe Cool--thank you!
I never thought of Godzilla, but now it's a perfect fit lol
