I would have snagged that concrete Whistle Post shown at 1:10 !! I got a metal one from the Cincinnati Northern at Cement City , Michigan in 1975 , it was under a pile of stick rail from the rail removal process. What a save this was, it is now fully restored and safe in my side yard. Great vid , thanks !! Used to live in Dane , WI. in the mid 70's , right near the double semaphores on Dane Hill. Great memories of Pink Lady ballast trains struggling up the grade. Once with Cab units when one of the big motors failed in Lodi.
This brings back memories! We had a CNW track near us growing up on the NW side of Milwaukee, and hung out by some woods near the tracks and on the trestle there. The trains all had cabooses back then. Just as we were loosing interest in hanging out by the tracks, I saw my first EOT on a CNW train. We actually hung out on the trestle near Necedah as well as a buddy has a hunting shack near it. Small world 😊
I will never forget the Chicago Northwestern. They Ran through my backyard. I learned so very quickly about trains and repair work being done. Just to hear the sound of the train coming. And to know the signal was timed. Thank you for sharing this. 😊
Loved the pole line at about 2’30”.
That DMIR RR Caboose is awesome!
I sure miss the old CNW!!!!!! Cheap and Nothing Worked, but it was like family. Thanks for the memories!!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
