- One of the worst thunderstorms in recent times reaped havoc with Northeast Pennsylvania and the railroads that serve it.
Washouts, floods, mudslides, downed power lines and trees and disrupted communications are just some of the drama that plagued Norfolk Southern today.
Add a derailment at Taylor Yard to the mix and you have one of the most interesting and frustrating days of railfanning on record....

10/ 10 for a good vid and dedication !
Thanks, Danny!!
Nice job
Thanks Blaine!
Your welcome
4:00 almost every boxcar on that train was smothered in graffiti. Pretty unbelievable. Go back in time on CZcams and look at train footage from the 80's or 90's, graffiti was a rare sight!
One person does it and the avalanche begins.
Nice Job AC
Thanks, Tim.
great video
Thanks, Peter.
I was able to look up every reporting mark in that video except YKR. Any idea what that might be?
York Rail
was that a salmon going up stream. LOL
Might have been!
I enjoyed your video. What we won't do for love of our hobby.
Tell me about it..
where I live in the Chicagoland area u.p. and BNSF on the same train is sort of uncommon but not rare
I'm surprised.. I always thought of Chicago as a railroad melting pot where you could find anything pretty much anywhere at pretty much anytime.. Maybe not.
Trains21 it really is just a big old melting pot and you can find basically anything there, but I live in the suburbs along a union Pacific line in which you rarely see BNSF but there are other places in Chicago in which you can see that quite often such as the yards. and got ALOT of ideal railfanning spots throughout.
I know.. After all, it is Chicago.
little tankers ha ha ha
lol!
how does one railroad company use another ones engine(s) if they are not partners in the industry?
There are many scenarios that can cause one railroad's locomotives to show up on another ones.. The most common reasons are the pooling of power between roads and/or horsepower hours owed to a railroad from another.
thank's for reply just asking are you allowed to be on tracks
"On" the tracks, not really but close is another issue.
7:40
Did you call NS to tell them that the tracks were flooded? Probably not a bad idea, trains can't stop on a dime.
No.. They do regular and bad weather patrols..
