At first glance, I thought the one train at Horseshoe Curve was coming up behind the other. Boy did I get the giggles.
That sky over Tucson almost looks like a painting.
It's an undecided sky...can't decide what it wants to do in terms of clouds, wind etc.--gorgeous!
Wow! Excellent catching all the trains, I like them, they're awesome, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much and have a nice day and night.
The angle of the sunlight made a really nice effect on the cars going around the curve in Hesperia. It was good to see 4822 and the coach honoring veterans, and thanks for the update on the Barstow project--seeing that huge crane going over the tracks was amazing (photobombs notwithstanding). Another great one!
❤ love the crab bag keep up the good work double thumbs up😊
Did you see the Darwin Candidate” at the Flagstaff meet? He was watching the westbound(?) and stepped off to cross when the eastbound was right on top of him!!
The "Monon" at Fairport.
It was eastbound at Herkimer, NY 4:00 Wednesday night. Voy what a quick turn around.
Anybody notice the 'darwin' at 9:55 @ Flagstaff?
No...
Wouldn’t have if you didn’t point it out. Nearly stepped right in front of the train.
Are we looking at the same video?? I can't see a thing to save my life!!🤔🤔🤔
@@TinkerTailor4303- watch the person standing along the tracks at the crossing. They take one step towards the track before they realize a second train is coming.
Look in the background, at the crossingwhen one train passes and another nears the crossing, a person tries to cross.@@TinkerTailor4303
I turned it on, left the room for something, and then came right back. I saw the NS at horseshoe curve and I SWORE either a train was going to get rear ended or one of the engines had separated for some reason. Then one just went right past the other. Ohhhhh! Ok.
Wow😯...a Sperry "doodlebug" railcar @7:25...now that's some "old school" maintenance-of-way" stuff for ya!!!
Love these neat catches
10:46 This is what happens when you try to beat the gates. At least not all of the entire arm broke off!
Does anybody know what the approximate cost is to replace one of those things?
Wow😮 Thanks VRF ❤
I meant to say if you think the sky is beautiful now you should see it when the sky turns orange in Tucson
I really like those Flat Cars in Ft Madison
Same here
@ 3:55 panoramic sky = "Glorious and Free"!
hope to see more of the work crane

Lol yep
Always great to see a new grab bag 😊
I like trains
💀
Tony, How the heck did you find me?
@@rhodeislandonrails2 i have connections
What connections💀
Did you take the sky is beautiful now you should should see it when the sky turns orange in Tucson
I forgot that there are 3 tracks on horseshoe curve. It looked like NS 4597 was going to collide with NS 7254
Great pan at Deshler of CSX 4419 with the best paint scheme imho 🤩
Was it in storage? It looks really clean. I didn't think CSX had any GP or SD units still running in gray paint.
@@WaffleDragon I don't think there a many, if any others, but other chatters might correct me.
Wow, some great catches thanks VRF. As well as the Crane movements, there was Illinois Terminal at Roanoke and two War Bonnets at Fort Madison. I was spitting feathers when Executive SD70MAC was videobombed by a GE loco, but there was another showed up at Barstow. I'd been hoping to see Davisville again. Can't help noticing the leaves at the Curve starting to look a bit Autumnal in the sunlight.
This is my favorite show with trains Virtual Railfan Grab Bag
and I really enjoy seeing the awesome train action around
the countryside especially Oklahoma Thanks.🚂🚃🚃🇺🇲
That's a lot of weight on that gravel train
*Nice*
24:29. Big crane.
the Ballast train at 4:40 I didn't notice the large doors that usually go under the hoppers. Do these cars have a conveyor belt that's operated by that odd shaped yellow middle unit to take the ballast to the spreader behind the power?
17:54 must be some sort of diagnostic car, considering the amount of stuff under the car. The grain(?) hopper is a buffer to smooth out stops, especially emergency stops, minimizing the shaking or sudden movements as much as possible.
1:24 MBTA train to Wickford Junction. I'm surprised MBTA trains go south of Providence, 80 miles away from Boston South Station!
2:04 three trains at once, one with two warbonnets
2:55 NS 8114
3:09 MRL 4316 trailing, one of the ex-BHP SD70ACes
4:06 closeup of coupler slack action!
6:11 NS 1072 leading an MSC container train
6:26 special train of empty heavy-duty flatcars. The loads were probably just dropped off
7:09 Sperry car 145 was built in 1975
9:05 NS 4822 and 1067 on an OCS (again at 16:17)
9:48 horn sounded at Tucson
10:07 Austin Western geep
10:25 as soon as the train cleared, cars started crossing. But before the crossing could turn off, it lowered for another train. A pickup truck with trailer ran it and ripped off the crossing gate
12:31 UP 5356, NS 1031, and NS 1070
13:22 Amtrak 71, 45, and 203 on the California Zephyr
14:27 wave and honk from the crew of this UP train
15:18 UP 1983 as mid-train DPU, same location 15 minutes prior to the train with NS 1070
17:00 NS 8102 leading
17:23 automated inspection train trying to race a mixed freight with an executive MAC trailing
18:24 solo leader YN2 geep heading to Toledo
18:45 NS 99 and 34 inspection train reversing
19:46 CSX 1982 leading solo
19:58 NS 4003 leading solo
20:37 NS 34 being switched without an inspection car
21:00 CSX 1897 as mid-train DPU on an Oak Ridge waste train (it's not really garbage as this material may be recycled)
21:15 CP unit and warbonnet trialing. This one section of the old Barstow 1st street bridge has not been cut up yet and is going somewhere for further use. BNSF crews laid temporary crossings to move the crane and bridge out of the yard
Trains, a crane, and telehandlers!
21:54 that is a libberr lr 1600 crawler crane
a Darwin candidate at 9:54!
Nice video
They like to show too much Roanoak
Hi Virtual Railfan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Virtual Railfan & Friends Randy
I wonder why AWRR 5001 was up in Nebraska.
I wonder what that crane operator makes an hour 🤔🤔
Not enough! The skill level blows me away.
Interesting that after the Darwin Candidates at 13:10 the next clip highlighted the slogan “See Tracks?, Think Train"
21:04 oak ridge cars are very common, no need to point them out. same with the reefers.
12:53 saying Hello to the Camera doesn't mean you trespass and put yourself in danger. Even if you could see a train coming you should never stand there or on the tracks for anything to much of a risk
I wouldn’t call standing on the road trespassing? Isn’t there a parking area right there too? There’s a sidewalk that leads across the crossing. Putting your foot on a rail right by a parking lot isn’t that much to get worked up about.
@@andrewlaverghetta715 walking up that line and even standing in the middle of it is trespassing.
Against VRF own gidelines to wave and still no Darwin mark. Strange way of using your rules, VRF!!
12:59 those kids are trespassing
0:39 7254: go away I don’t wanna talk with u
4597: NEVER!
4597: nvm
What will happen to the pillars that held up the old bridge in Barstow?
They will be removed at a later time.
Those warbonnets are getting really sad looking at this point. Even NS style primer would look better than the faded mess they are now.
What were they doing at Barstow?
removing the old road bridge, they built a modern road bridge across all the tracks, time to take the old one down
17:54 THATS IT, YOU LOST YOUR PASSENGER CAR PRIVILEGES
12:28 that’s not fair I wanted to see if the train would hit it😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Yo!
If you allready have to put a line on screen with the name of a Cryo or Lineage car, please, please, put the car-number in too. Now I have to stop the video 1 second later again to reed them. Only a name does not help the ones collecting them. Thanks!
2 People Waving On An Audi Car Honking A S&HC
Scoreeeeeeeee
A la 2:10, ils pourrait quand même leurs donner un petit coup de peinture à ces deux Santa Fe...
Not for nuttin, but shouldn't the headline be spelled Sante Fe ? Or is this a North Pole train?
The railroad was called Santa Fe. 👍
@@adamc1966 yep Santa Fe is exactly correct.
My bad, I stand corrected! (Tho I still like the idea Santa has his own railroad and has a workaround the rail strike in Canada)😅
Questions:
Which Amtrak(s) goes through Burlington IA?
Why are Cryotrans cars named?
The Amtrak California Zephyr passes once daily in each direction. The great majority of the names on the Cryotrans refrigerator cars are place names for specific towns and locales. I don't know if there is any special significance to them.-- Thanks Anna F
I used to name the individual vehicles in some fleets I managed instead of giving them number identifiers. Names make them much easier to identify, even in an industrial setting.
@@joelcheek3494 I like that lots of the locomotives in England have names.
@@VirtualRailfanCyroTrans used to deliver frozen goods to specific towns and cities. The cars were marked to designate the destination. Now they are car identification so that goods are placed into the proper car.
@@VirtualRailfan I love watching them and trying to figure it out though.
