- RAILROAD SHOO-FLY UPDATE! Train goes over train! A giant CSX train with 2 mid train DPUs working hard goes under a Norfolk Southern train in Kentucky. Both trains had 2 DPUs in the middle of the train and working hard. The NS train was flying over the CSX train. First we see the progress on the railroad overpass being constructed in Richwood, Kentucky. The temporary railroad track around the construction zone ( shoo-fly ) is still in use. Notice the permanent right of way being constructed next to it. We see the the shoo-fly from both ends and both sides right in the middle. I also filmed a train going around the shoo-fly. It won't be long until the permanent track is put back into place and trains will be going over the new bridge. I also show the permanent right of way being constructed for the industrial spur that serves 2 customers. I show both abandoned railroad crossings also. After that I went a couple miles south of the shoo-fly where the CSX line goes under the Norfolk Southern line. I heard a CSX manifest approaching on 161.370 and the Norfolk Southern line on 160.950 was very slow today. A huge CSX train with 2 mid train DPUs was going from Cincinnati to Louisville, Kentucky. While I was filming that train a Norfolk Southern manifest with 2 mid train DPUs passed over the CSX train! That was pure luck! It was cold with the temperatures maxing out around 25 degrees Fahrenheit. The cold temperatures along with the wind coming off of the CSX train was pretty hard on my camera battery and the battery finally gave out just before the end of the NS train. There might have been another 20 cars but at least I got all of the locomotives. CSX runs about 7 or 8 trains every 24 hours through here and NS has about double that. This CSX line is the same one that runs through the street running track in LaGrange, Kentucky. I have a lot of videos of trains in LaGrange in my playlist called Street Running Trains. The main purpose of this video is to show the progress on the railroad overpass. They put fencing up on the bridge which is not great for photography. On this day, the tracks were not very busy and I had to wait close to 3 hours for a train. The over and under shot was a lucky catch. What do you think about the progress and leave a comment about the over and under shot. I also filmed Norfie and Chessie on the same day and don't forget to watch my world famous slide show at the end! The train going between buildings and dropping the signal at the end is for a future video that I am working on from Muncie, Indiana. Shoo-fly and over/under shots all filmed December 7, 2021.

You know the odds of catching twin DPU's passing over twin DPU's. Wow what a shot.
Plus on top of a trestle.
Definitely twin stacks want fit under that sucker
That was a tight fit down that embankment.
This is gotta rate in the top 5 videos you've captured.
Way to go. Take care.
I felt really lucky to have caught that. The odds were low for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting Chester!
Seems every train that used the shoo fly was booking. It’s going’s to be busy area once it’s finished.nice video thank you.
Thanks for watching
I was thinking the same thing. They didn't waste time through those curves.
Shoofly Pie and Apple Pan Dowdy! A hit song grandparents and great grandparents listened to back in the day. That first train is bookin'!
Man sweet shot of the dual train over and under. What a great catch.
That over under shot was something you usually see on a model train layout!!😉
I was just going to say the same thing. Model railroad turned full size!
A great surprise catch with one train on the lower level track and another on the upper level track ! If you had wanted that you would be waiting and waiting, and you go a nice surprise ! You lucked out with this one.
It is a cat's natural instinct to hunt so a bell around Norfie should help unless you want to make her a house cat. That over and under was great and the NS train was really moving on the shoo fly. Have a nice day 😊
As a modeler and train watcher, I truly appreciate your views of the trains from angles that help with weathering, etc. Also the views of the railroad cut and train lines passing over one another are cool and useful.Thanks for the great work you do.
Thank you very much!
@@JawTooth I very much appreciate this, too. Your videos have inspired me to start modelling and I have a ton of screen grabs from your videos that I use for weathering, graffiti and all that stuff.
Burlington Northern autorack! Been awhile since I've seen one of those. Thanks for the video, son.
Bunch of BN grainers in the shoo-fly train, too, though those are still pretty common. The railroad names on the autoracks are somewhat irrelevant, since the cars are nearly all owned by TTX. I don't know why they even put railroad names on them. They don't with the Railbox cars, for example.
I LOVE THE UPDATES ON THE SHOOFLY............I'M SURE YOU'LL HAVE A GOOD ONE FOR US WHEN IT'S COMPLETE......KEEP THEM COMING........GOOD JOB, YOU GOT US INTERESTED IN THIS DON'T SHORT CHANGE US NOW...........THANKS...........
Thank you for documenting these trains and the update on the Richwood, Kentucky shoo-fly, Jawtooth! The work on the new bridge and setting up it up for use. It looks like they mihgt have the tracks over the new bridge in place and in operation soon. You were at the right place in the right time to catch the CSX train and the Norfolk Southern train overhead. That CSX train was definitly a looong train. It was unusual to see both the CSX and the Norfolk Southern trains with double mid-train DPUs. I enjoyed watching this video!
Nice to witness the buildingsite and the double crossing. It must be one of your lucky days, Jaw Tooth! And mine. Great video and explantions.
cat's a good hunter! that's what they do. earning her keep, as she sees it.
and you're sure a good train hunter as well! hard working DPU's fer shure.
Keep up the good work trouble done that big train had dpus 2 X it was a big train you outdid yourself that time especially when you add another train passing overhead I believe three times that was awesome A+ across-the-board that was real sweet
Wow JT! You did good!! A true OVER/UNDER freight with a double DPU on both trains! This old train fan is sorely impressed!!!
I really like your “long view” of the freight around the shoofly
That has to be the catch of the year.. 2 trains both having DOUBLE DPUs!... at the same time!
Nice! I know many people don't think about tracks being relocated because they are so much a permanent fixture. But moving them is done in such a way that even the most observant folks won't realize it happened. I grew up near the Chrysler stamping plant in Warren, Mich. they had a huge pedestal water tower on one side of the track and the plant on the other. It was the town's landmark, but it disappeared one day during the summer and the track were relocated over that space. Found out years later, the reason the tower was removed was it was unused and the angle of the track was off to the entry of the plant for drop off of chassis in the assembly plant ne3xt door to the stamping plant. (I know, confusing a little), but after the track were relocated the trains could then drive thru the back end of the plant and drop chassis on the newly moved tracks, then realigning them back to the main line. fascinating stuff, thanks for the video!
Markus, your absolutely right, in my forty years operating an engine I’ve seen plenty and even had undercutting of the right of way under bridge superstructures, lots of scenarios…..they’ll swing that right of way over and a temporary speed restriction for the first train or two and then it will be like the sho-fly never existed…..I don’t see the switch installation being an issue….ok, good update Brian so let us know how Purina is coming along we have to keep you busy, happy holidays and your list for when you return from Florida is going to be pretty big…..rest up…..I’m headed over to yt channel “jackmp294.5” and hunt for some “uboats”…..take care all…..Mike5203
Hello from the UK. What a great catch that was to see the two trains together. That must have been your reward for standing out in the freezing weather all of that time. All in all that was a lot of rail freight that shifted by the three trains. Watching you freezing out there in that cold weather reminds me of why I am the sort of rail fan who likes to watch trains in the winter from the comfort of their own warm home! Thanks for braving the bad weather so that we don't have to.
This was a great one. Really! And yea that CSX train was really long. WOW.
Wow!! What can I say? As always Great report!! The Shoo-fly, DPU, looooong trains and Chessie&Norfie time! Thank you very much Mr. Jaw Tooth!! 😀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
wow that is a major project, will be awesome when done. What a nice surprise to have the CSX come over top, awesome capture. awww kitty is a killer, yep, need a bell for her. TY for sharing
Two train action! I loved the train going by on the trestle!
Thats amazing work Brian, double DPU'S below at 14mins, then upper train at 17mins, then upper DPU after that, wow.
Keep up the good work !
2022 is looking so bright !
Hope Santa sorts out battery problem.
😁😄🤗🦴👌👍
JT beating the brush to get us an over/under shot. True dedication just for us railfans! Many thumbs up!! 👍👍👍
Good double catch at the bridge!
Thanks again JawTooth for your efforts out in the cold to catch those trains. Shoo-fly is looking good. Those were some long ones. It's neat how Chessie blends into the snow. Norfie is a natural born hunter!! That bell will help. LOL Great video as always!!
That second spot was quite the catch! Thanks Brian.
That deserves 2 thumbs up !! Nice catch. Btw, it`s natural for cats to hunt prey. Love that kitty.
Those 2 trains at the over/under was a great catch! Nice video son!
You'd think that they'd make batteries for the cold. Awesome shot of both trains at the same time!!! I've no love for chipmunks and mice. They get into your house and wreak havoc sometimes. Bummer about the bird. If you get her a bell, she's going to learn how to be a better hunter over time.
I'm surprised how thin the bridge is. With all that massive weight flying across it unbelievable I never saw a video like that before thanks so much
Thanks for braving the cold and making that great catch!
Two long trains today. One over the other at the trestle was awesome. Thanks for sharing the pets! Have a great weekend. 🙂👍🇺🇸
Thanks! You too!
Great over and under runbys. DPU's are becoming more common due to the length of this precision railroading trains
Morning JT hopefully u got some hot chocolate this morning after being out in the cold! Stay safe out there. Keep those videos going son!
Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 10 Dec 21.
Thanks for another great video.
The survivalist/prepper guide to supplies: two is one and one is none. Applies to batteries. An automotive battery in a holder + a transformer may do the job.
Transformers only work for AC. Batteries are DC.
@@beeble2003 Many portable automobile starter / tire inflator battery units have USB ports. Many cameras can use USB.
@@tzadik36 Yes, or just use a USB battery pack.
Awesome video Jaw Tooth! Man they are really coming along on that shoo fly work, they’ll probably have it done and train rolling over it by next spring time I’d say! What a catch on the rat hole line and the CSX line! Both trains rolling simultaneously in one catch, don’t get any better than that! Keep on bringing us the trains love all the action!
Man what a capture that was. Over and under duos, aka, "twins". Just sitting watching the almost endless CSX and then, NS clattered onto the bridge, and I went "wow". So, I'm wondering how much you paid the crews to get that to happen lol. Anyway, it was a great video.
I remember you had a video on the moving of the railway, soon after they started. IIRC, the crossing was removed then, and the tracks ran parallel with road for quite aways.
Thank you Jaw Tooth.
Great doppler effect ! You will probably be there for the 1st train over that bridge.
So…what a surprise today, Mr. Jawtooth! We are staying at a Harvest Host in Northern Kentucky in the Harmony Express and happened to venture out for a bite to eat. All of a sudden, I started to recognize the surroundings. I HAPPENED ON THIS SHOOFLY!! Completely on accident! I starting in on my best “Jawtooth imitation” (Hello everyone!).
Who would have thought that in all of the places around the country, we’d happen on the very site of an awesome Jawtooth video!!
Shoo-fly, probably won't be there, too much longer. Great catches! Chessie, in her "snow camo" lol 🤣
Wow! You sure hit the jackpot catching the two trains! Too bad your battery ran out. Naughty kitty to get a chipmunk and a bird. Cute pic of Chessie with a bit of snow on her nose!
Love that Shoo-Fly. It even has a distinct sound to it...it'll be sad to see it go, but it served its purpose well. Rails from the 1920s? Darn, Woodrow Wilson was president. Thanks for another superb video, JT!
What a great episode, that over-under was fantastic, especially w the double dpu! Well done!
You have such a steady hand, thanks for your dedication, your vids are top notch! 🎯
I heard an emoji in comments is good for channels, anyone know? Can't hurt...lol
GREAT FOOTAGE OF NW passing over CSXT. Very good shot !!! Thanks!! Battery problems happen..I thoroughly enjoyed the video.
Hey JT you must be a mind reader, I was going to ask about the shoo-fly so thank you on the up date.
Love the dueling trains! CSX low NS High on the bridge!! Awesome...very cool!
Thank you very much!
When I lived in Neath, South Wales a couple of decades ago, my cat Harry brought me a small mole that he had disembowelled and left it (just like a present) on my back step outside the kitchen door! I'm afraid cats are hunters by nature, and that was just one of the grisly things he thought I might like as gifts that he brought back to the house over his eight year life span! My other cat used to like catching Slow Worms (Snake-like legless Lizards common in our area). He would bite them into two or three inch sections and leave them all over the house. We soon put a stop to that, and Tigger eventually stopped his homicidal gifts.
The short battery life in your camera was too bad. I am sorry to miss the last part of the second train. Kentucky seems to be another state to have lots of trains. I enjoyed watching them, especially the first train. I hope the great loving Lord will bless you, your loving ones, Chessie, the other doggies and the kitty-cat. Until next time, Happy Railroading!
MUY BUENAS LAS IMAGENES,GRACIAS JAW TOOTH.
Always amazes me how fast they go around that shoo-fly, maybe its not as sharp a curve as it looks in your video.
Ohhhh nice double double DPU catch WITH Norfolk Southern going over top of train number one !! Nice sound too !! 👍 👍.
Couldn't have planned that any better !! 👍
GREAT video !! 👍 Woooooooooo !! 👍
Trains trains, everywhere trains!
Making all the scenery
Shaking my brain!
On that first one...I couldn't resist. Hehe! I "had to" do a partial replay back to the beginning of it so I could "take some inventory". LOL! That was 150 cars plus 3 locomotives.
To quote Darth Vader " Impressive Most Impressive ". Over and under trains, a rare sight. THANK YOU! MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!
Jawtooth another great video. It's nice to hear rail cars rolling down the tracks. That CSX 100 some cars was moving at a pretty good clip. Great shot and timing of the train crossing over the bridge. That made my day. Thank for all the work you do for your channel Jawtooth. I love it. Take care Merry Christmas to you and your Family. Thank you for sharing. Canada.
Greetings Canada
Happy holidays to you and your

U always find the best places to watch trains
Dual CPU’s on the “under” CSX, and an Overhead NS to boot, with a single DPU. GREAT CATCH!!! Take the rest of the day off!.
BTW, it’s her natural instinct to hunt/catch. If she will be an outside cat, a collar could catch on a fence or anything and strangle her. Cats are predators,inside is best for wildlife!! Her as well, saves her from dogs,owls,hawks, coyotes who see her a tasty meal, plus winter isn’t kind to outside domesticated animals!
Just saying! ❤️
I have one that looks just like her. Much agree that for her safety and for the protection of the outdoor critters, best to keep her indoors.
Our outside cats have "breakaway" collars. If they get hung up, cat tugs away from whatever collar got snagged on and pops open, no harm to the cat at all.
Now finding the lost breakaway collar, that's another matter all together! LOL
But I agree, inside is best for most cats, however, there are those that flat refuse to be inside only cats. I have quite a few of those.
But I did train mine not to kill birds or squirrels. Snakes, rats, mice are fair game though.
ChainsawN&W1218,that was a great catch,I've caught some NS trains while filming over 200 cars with mid helper DPU'S.
Awesome as always! Thanks for the great content!!
That’s really cool, there, son! You were lucky! Woo!
NOTHING BETTER THAN SEEING A SHOO-FLY BEFORE THE WEEKEND GREAT JOB JT
Thanks for watching!
Cooool is the word -both for the videos and the temperatures !! Rare find indeed -over and under shots -both with DPU's even more rare !!! Shoo fly is getting sooo close to opening up -with be a shame because we've had some real good Jawtooth videos from there !!
Regards
Thanks for watching!
Great timing. 2 trains in one video. Very cool!! Stay warm. 80 here in Florida
Thanks 👍. I will be down there in a month
Those NS units sound great.
Epic jawtooth hope you have a great day hope you stay warm
Nice catch on the over under. They just reverted back to the new bridge over the Tristate Tollway on the BNSF in Chicago's Western burbs not long ago.
Might be a good idea to at least try to make Norfie a house cat as it'd be better for both her and the local wildlife though that's in her nature to hunt. We had a shop cat at my former employer for the first 10 years I was there and ol Puff would bring back all sorts of critters he caught to show off his hunting prowess.
Funniest was our receptionist keeps hearing this thunk thunk thunk noise of something bouncing off the sliding glass door near her desk, after a few more thunks curiosity gets the best of her and she looks to see Puff with the mouse he'd caught pick up the mouse in his mouth by the tail and then flinging the mouse against the window and then doing the same until one of us went out to acknowledge his skill as the hunter supreme with ear skritches.
Wow!! That was an awesome video!! You get an A++ and a couple thumbs up on that one. Those trains on and under the trestle and both with DPUs...and at the same time...what are the odds??!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks. Great video. Enjoyed it. Good end to the week. Norfie growing quickly now.
The shoo-fly construction site is probably every boys dream. Who doesn’t like seeing construction vehicles and trains at the same place?
nice shot of the 2 trains together sir
In downtown nashville they had to replace a big section of two tracks when they built the bicentennial mall and build the Andrew Johnson State Building
Wow, that’s being in the right place at the right time. That NS looked like it was moving pretty good.
Bravo, great catch from train over the train. Greetings from Berlin/ Germany. Sven
I never have seen those tall gondolas with covers on them before (so stuff doesn't spill out). That's a good thing! BTW, your cat is just doing what's in her/his nature. Chipmunks can cause damage to your home (and they make that annoying noise, LOL)! Vermin are the reason God put cats on Earth, to keep our homes safe and healthy. I don't like it when the cats kill birds, but for cats, it is a way for them to keep fit and active. It keeps their hunting skills sharpened. Your cat will also go after spiders or other vermin in your house, this is all in their nature. Happy New Year to you, Mrs. Tooth and the whole Family! God Bless!
Jawtooth, I have 12 cats that are spayed/neutered that live in/out of the garage and backyard, they get a pigeon a week. Nature in action.
Thanks for making the video for us JAW Tooth
That was pretty cool
Wow! 2 DPUs, CSX with 2 locomotives as their DPUs with the Norfolk Southern having the other 2. By the way you were right both sets of DPU were screaming.
Incredible video! Thanks for always getting out there! 😎😁
Nice Catch of the Train Meet
Thank you very much!
Awesome video Jawtooth! Looks like Haydon bridge is doing a great job at the shoo-fly! My father worked for them back before he retired several years ago. Awesome catch on the NS over CSX crossing! Awesome ! Totally awesome!That's one cool place! Thanks for sharing!
Amazing videos jaw tooth keep up with the good work
Great good video, mr Jaw Tooth.
Thanks for the update for the shoo-fly.
See the CSX train i saw a pilar of concrete i guess that was a bridge of a highway.
Wait for your next video, mr Jaw Tooth.
Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands.
Hello Netherlands
From Michigan/United States
Wow that's CSX train going under the Norfolk Southern trestle is a monster of a train nice catch
I am imagining Jawtooth relaxing on the couch in bed of truck filming trains
Fantastic video! Wow, the longest train I've ever seen. Great catch.
Great video Jaw Tooth, best wishes from Scotland 🏴
Another of my favorites, over under, awesome catch. I had to scroll to find it.
Thanks for watching !
Reminds my of Chillicothe East of N Bridge St but NS is on the bottom and CXS over the bridge. Great video
Great camera location on NS/CSX overpass.
Well, booger! That was a long CSX going under the NS trestle!! Great catch again JT, 👍🏼😊. Sorry you’re freezing your battery. It’s in the 80’s in Florida.
I didn’t measure his speed but it seems to me that the train at the beginning of the video rolls faster than we usually see. Maybe the track that has been built recently allows higher speed. The great works you make us discover and explain will improve the safety of accident theater places in the past. Removing railroad crossings is always a good thing.
From the time the locomotives took to pass a fixed point, it was doing about 45mph. Not an unusual speed and any benefits of brand-new track is offset by the tight curve of the shoo-fly, which probably can't be superelevated because it's a pair of short s-curves.
Great update video 🚄🚄👍
Thats great catching the two trains at the bridge great filming. I just got to say
You weren’t lying about those trains being long though. Those were some good trains you caught
What an amazing capture, timed perfectly!
Many thanks!
You were lucky to catch both trains at the bridge. I was lucky to see that happen as well a couple of years ago in the same spot. BTW the siding that was taken out near the shoofly was for a small coal yard that was by the tracks. They had lump coal and sold it to people who heated with coal. If I remember correctly they brought it in on gondolas. In later years it was used to set off a defective car if needed.
.
Thanks for the history about the small coal yard siding. Adds to the experience.
Thanks for another great video 📹 👍
Nice video Brian, it was cool to see those two trains at the same time and the CSX train had some interesting cars in it. Like others were saying, get a breakaway collar with a bell for Norfie, or else keep her inside. Do you have a decent model train layout? You should show it to us in a video sometime.
