The railroad just got done putting 3 cars back on the line and got the train connected back together when it happened.. AGAIN! Watch them use a FROG on this video to put them back on the day before: • RAILROAD USES FROG, TH...

All those cars be swayin' like a bunch of drunken sailors in a conga line...
Houston. we got a problem??? that was Penn Central on steroids LOL
Wow, you actually caught it happen!
How crazy, huh? $$$$$
@Jaw Tooth your here!?
The cause of derailment. Guy coughing up both lungs on the side of the rail vibrated the guage of the rail apart!
Lol
Don’t be ridiculous. I bet that cough didn’t shatter a single window beyond 7 or 8 feet.
L.M.A.O

Jason. It's not the cough that carries you off , it's the coffin they carry you off in! 😂😂
It seems like they would fix that raggedy track because every time you turn around, they have a train derailing on it
3:25, everybody
Thanks

They should have fixed that section attract last summer when it was warm instead of when it's cold out LMAO
Our for fathers who used to walk to work 15 miles in 8 feet of snow everyday would have fixed it in the summer and they would have fixed it right too.
@Patrick Ancona believe me they didn't I don't live very far from where this is like 10 miles this railroad doesn't spend a lot of money on maintenance just look at the equipment
Wow! Snow!
I drove a Michigan double logging truck for a little while. I loaded rail cars in L'ance Michigan in 04&05. There is a hill a few miles south east that limits the number of Cars one engine can pull so they split the Manifest and pull one half at a time up to a siding on the other side and come back for the second half. One day I was talking to the engineer and he invited me to take a short ride up and back. According to him their wasn't enough money in the local Freight for more money to be invested in the tracks. If the tracks were in better shape I think it's possible that he could have made the hill without splitting his manifest because he could have gotten more speed. I remember the cars swaying quite a bit like in this video and going slowly. It was a fun ride and a good memory.
That was quick response from the team
"What a weird start-off to 2020" - If only you had known what was yet to come...
Too bad I wasn’t there with you. I usually carry a pretty nice harbor freight aluminum racing floor jack in my trunk. Could have wrapped that up in no time.
sometimes it's all about the quality
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As bad as this track has been shown to be in your past videos, a derailment was inevitable. I am watching from west central Indiana.
Watched from Chicago. Retired Railroad Engineer. Brother moved to thunder lake in hiawatha forest. Enjoy your vids! Thanks
Wow. Right place at the right time. Good video.
Cheers
They musta used thumb tacks to hold them rails to the ties! lol Gees!
CN- We will deliver
ELS- We will derail
OZZY,I'm going off the rails on a crazy train!! 🎶🎵🎵👌👌🤣🤣
Being a career Locomotive Engineer, what should have been done is secure and cut the train, then repair the problem before proceeding. Now due to someone's over paid brilliant thinking (Trainmaster) it's going to cost alot more time and money to rectify the issue. But, what do I know.
Are you a podunk shortline engineer though?
@@MilwaukeeF40C No, Class one, I bet that Engineer is sitting on a saddle, or maybe a milk crate?🤔
That was an awesome video
Illinois. From Ewen Michigan. Loved ro watch the train and count the cars
This video foreshadowed how 2020 would play out
The amount of money spent on Re-Railing those cars could have bee spent on maintenance without all the disruptions and a$$ ache. Makes one wonder about management.
You can't fix stupid. The management is stooooooooooopid.
A lot of times short-lines are leasing the track from NS or CSX. They legally cannot improve the ROW per the legal agreement. NS/CSX is responsible... and you know they won't do anything beyond the bare minimum.
No. The employees are being paid regardless, and you don't use any supplies on a simple rerail job. Fixing the track means bringing in special equipment, ballast, ties, and anything else they need. That's a lot more money. This railroad is probably operating on a shoe string.
Not true at all, I live along rails owned by Norfolk Southern, they lease the section along our house to a small rail company and they handle all the maintenance on the section they lease. I see their equipment on the rails weekly.
Short line agreements pass the Mtn responsibility to the lessee. That is one of the main reasons for the big rr to lease, to get out of the maintenance expense.
Them rail cars must have chewed up them ties bad! now they got to fix it!
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Escanaba & Lake Superior Railroad--The only thing more broken than our rails is our Management Team.
That is plain sad and irresponsible! Management proves it is completely not needed!
I was part of a 4 man rail road crew for a paper mill. Derailments were a pain in the azz, winter storms too,..cleaning out the switches.
Are they the same guys that own the 2 last surviving Baldwin sharknose diesels?
@@mattlf9120 yes
You already knew something about this year, when you said the last sentence! :D
Wow tahts amazing that it happened twice!
Did you watch my most recent video? Snow plowing action!
Take care and stay healthy. Fairfax, Virginia.

Nice video and thanks for sharing them all like you do! I'm watching from Rochester Hills, MI, near Detroit.
I'm surprised those two cars didn't roll over!! Nice catch Jason!!
I am too! I thought it was going over!

Lots of snow in Michigan locomotive slow on the track blowing horn awesome video happy new year Jason 2020 be bless big cough men
Watching from Australia 🇦🇺
Watching from Florida. No snow. No snow.
Time to upgrade the tracks.
They need to desperatly fix the track, I mean , that freight is very heavy to be on bad track
'RICOLA!' 😁
The guy said at the end. What a way to start off 2020. Covid said, hold my beer, watch how I finish off 2020.
A shout out from Southeast Michigan. Great train video, luv.👍
Oshkosh Wis. and I remember your run-ins with rail crew. Your a tough guy to spend the time to get these vids. Thanks !
In 3:43 They should have a brakevan in the back to prevent the long heavy freight train from shaking and derailing
I am at a loss for why they didnt have someone watching that spot instead of him pulling the rails right out of the ties. I guess they have to fix it now. Great video as always!

Ri-i-i-co-o-o-la-a-a-a!
RICOOOOLLLAAAAAA!
I’m watching from Wytheville Virginia in the United States 🇺🇸
I wasn’t not expecting that cough😅
Neither was I.. Much better now. lol
SoCal USA where tracks are repaired right away so thanks for the video 😣
Watching the rockin and rollin rail cars down here in New Zealand, thanks for the video Jason. 👍
Good old shit errr I mean short line antics!
I’m from Pennsylvania watching your vedio
Looks like an easy problem to me. Add 1.5psi to the right side tires and two rounds of wedge. Probably don’t need to take any tape off the grill, though.
Watching from Texas.
Hi, watching from phone to answer your question. Also that was funny.
Watching from Syracuse NY. Railroad needs to maintain its rail better..
There was a derailment near where I last lived, and the whole train got scrapped. Thanks NS!
Woah! Another derailment YOU caught on camera! You don't know how rare that sort of thing is!
Not as rare as one would think (or hope!), apparently. At least, not with THIS railroad....
@George Nelson Yeah, this even more poorly managed than the I&O
with the all caps, i was thinking this would be a more dramatic derailment than it actually was.
Every one of his videos are all caps. He recently made a video called “WHO LEFT THE DOOR OF THIS FREIGHT TRAIN OPEN!?”.
He made a video about his sunflowers the other day in all caps.
Or searching for mushrooms. He also made one about cutting the grass. I don’t dislike him for it but it’s part of his content.
Hi Jason, watching from Boston, MassConfusion. Like your vids. Keep up the good work...
I am from Oakland New Brunswick Canada
Had that same cough until I quit smoking.Miss the smokes,but not the cough.
Watched from NC
Watching from Marietta, Georgia. I grew up in Stephenson, across from the tracks.
looked like it almost fell over too!
Great Footage AssMan!!
Why thanks!
Watching from Jacksonville, FL
Watching from Onalaska Wisconsin
Watching from Austin Texas
You better get that checked out.
Watching from Osoyoos, British Columbia, Canada
Watching from Harbour Grace Newfoundland. 👍
In 1:48 They should have the two diesel locomotives such as the first diesel locomotive going forwards, and the second diesel locomotive going backwards to pull the heavy freight trains instead of having the backwards diesel locomotive pulling it
Keep goin it'll ride!
Thumbs up from Jacksonville Florida

Hello from Appleton Wisconsin! Great job getting this on video Jason. I am sure the workers that yelled at you before feel terrible now that your videos are bringing attention to how bad they maintain their rails! The railroad should be paying you for documenting this and showing them firsthand how bad things are in that section.
Nothing bad said this time. A little friendly actually. lol
Hilarious they did that in front of your camera of all people. LOL
Watching all the way from Effingham Illinois
Watching from Payson, AZ, USA. Snowed at Christmas but gone now. No trains in the hood.
Thats a 'pack a day' cough🇦🇺🇦🇺
The railroad in my town is starting to get upset at me for filming them. They flipped me off last week and I got it on video
Make them famous! ha ha
Jaw Tooth Yea and that CSX engineer liked your caboose to you got it on video 😎
That's sad JT.
Ccet or someone else?

When a business has a problem with independent people recording and ducumenting, then the problem is with the company, not the person that is recording, documenting, or enforcing it.

A perfect D major triad! Most horns on Locos are minor or diminished but this is the first major triad I have heard. Kind of a happy horn LOL
Indiana. Thank you!
Watching from Guelph, Ont, Canada
I’m watching from Pittsfield, Massachusetts!! This is crazy!
You coughed it off the tracks!
Watching from Charleston SC
I was told it cost over $100,000 to re-rail a car! You would think they would have fixed this by now.
@@cdavid8139 I guess it depends on the situation. My friend is a train master for CSX and gave me that info.
@@cdavid8139 I can agree with that 😊
2:21 a cough this far up north outside in the winter is never small 😂 us northlanders understand completely 🥶 lots of lumber on that thing, doesn't surprise me. My parents live in Iron Co lumber trucks everywhere.
He was talking about hitting the describe button when it went on the ground and he didn't even know it did. Didn't even know it did.
ANd?
