Nice catch on the Clinchfield coal hopper. I saw an old Rock Island grain hopper the other day on an Norfolk Southern mixed freight, lead by 5 Union Pacific EMD units.
I know what u mean with the clinchfield hopper. When traveling along the St Marys west heading towards Waycross i caught a Monon covered hopper in the storage lines. That was just years ago.
The gold standard in railfanning, simply excellent. I am not an expert on the circus train, but I thought I remembered hearing it usually came in on the Vitis sub down to the A-Line and then was stored in Uceta, if so, was there a specific reason for keeping this S-Line all the way?
Great work Danny. The crew change idea is very good for everyone. The CN has been practicing that move for quite a while. I believe since the last contract agreement between the CN and it's Conductors and Engineers. Another effort to bring everyone home. I am sure it saves the railroad quite a bit of money in hotel costs.
he worked the DREW switcher spotting autos by LETO HS. That was the last job, He fell at Yoman yards broke his hip. That was the last time He retired in 2003 He passed away 9-04-12.DaD PUT IN 50 YEARS tHANK yOU
Can you really tell the horn model from that quick video? CSX swaps horns out all the time when they fail. They don't care about matching engine models with horn models. I've seen plenty of Dash-8's with Leslie 3 Chime horns. DH
Sadly i Ever NEVER GOT SEE OR SEE IN MY LIFE TIME IT PROBABLY ONE COOLEST TRAINS BESIDES TROPICANA JUICE TRAIN AT TIME I CANT BELIEVE ITS GONE BUT DIDNT WOULDNT COME BACK BUT IF POSITIVE MINE SET MAYBE COULD SEE AGIN 5 or 10YEATS NEVER KNEW ALWAYS POSITIVE
I'm guessing that it was a CSXT engine gotten in the Conrail merger. I'm not a locomotive guy, though. I can differentiate between GE and EMD and that's about the end of my expertise. :-))
He was SEABOARD all the way!!!!! That's wright LOL!!! When it came to running a locomotive he was one of the best or the best' he thought so.lol. I KNOW HE WASNOT A SAINT BUT WHO IS. dad was a good man , he provided well for his family. DAD WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. THANK YOU DH.
I don't want to be anything mean, but the ACL runied the L&N and the CC&O, My grandpa doesn't like the family lines because of the bosses he had while working for the "L&N" at that time.
My Dad worked for SEABOARD RAILROAD (thats what I still call it today). And; I really Thank You for posting these videos. Bring back the days of remembering the F-7s and F-9s sitting at Hanies Yard Office in Spartanburg, S. Carolina, where he worked back in the 60's.and 70's Moved around a lot because of the Railroad Life, but now his retired living in Florida and plays railroad on the 7.5" scale. LOL! Never fully leaves the blood once its in Ya! Thanks Again!
Very sorry to hear about your dad. I wish I'd have known him. He always had a bright tone in his voice on the radio. Trading shots with the yardmaster, making fun of other crews. I remember, after your dad had done some task or one kind or another, apparently in his own way, another worker asking him what railroad he came from: SEABOARD AIRLINE, buddy!! SEABOARD AIRLINE!!! he responded. Very funny. DH
So sad seeing the RRBX train at the end of this video, had you known back in January 2011, that 6 years later, there be no more RRBX trains after April 2017, you would have been shocked then, as I am now. A sad day for children of all ages :o(
Wonderful job Danny! I love the CW44AH on the coal train with the K5HL, and I got a laugh out of the announcement of the railfans at Vitis when the Circus Train came! Thanks.
@acltrainman1963 Technically true, Stan. but i could stand on the Yeoman Old main and hit those Circus cars in Uceta with a good sized rock. :-)) Thanks! DH
Had to return to watch it again, Danny. Didn't you have a nickname for the engineer on E092 or was that somebody else? Better than anything seen under the Pentrex label... Outstanding!
ww32 Conrail Shared Assets Operations is owned by CSX and Norfolk Southern. All equipment is from CSX, or NS. CSAO is based in Detroit, New Jersey and around Philadelphia. They also work on the Northeast Corridor between Philadelphia and New York. And the Dash 8-40CW is pure CSX. Conrail doesn't own equipment like locomotives anymore. Most Conrail units went to CSX or NS after the June 1st, 1999 breakup.
Danny,When I pick up my dad at the airport,We always pass this EMD CSX Boxcar logo-ed i think GP40 at the tri-rail station on I-95 and it is awesome why not come down to Fort Lauderdale and railfan!Railfanning the FEC won't kill you one day and video it right?
Clinchfield hopper catch was a gem. I actually grew up in Clinchfield country in east Tn where the KP sub runs from shelby, Ky to Erwin, TN.
Buen trabajo. Me encanta tu trabajo. Gracias
Cool video Danny. I really enjoyed it. 👍👍👍❤️
Nice catch on the Clinchfield car, now thats a rare catch! Another excellent video completed by you Mr. Harmon!
Nice Meet! Wish i could have as much freedom as you.
Too bad the circus train is gone. It was always a sight to see.
Nice catch on the Clinchfield coal hopper. I saw an old Rock Island grain hopper the other day on an Norfolk Southern mixed freight, lead by 5 Union Pacific EMD units.
Fantastic job again Danny!! Keep them coming.

Another great video Danny. Keep them great videos a coming just like the trains. See you trackside again someday.
Very well done, good commentating.

A Great Video Danny, and Very Nice Catches
Another winner!
Great video Danny.
Nice Job!
Excellent Video Mr. Harmon. 5*****

Nice Video Danny.

OMG!! I have heard your dad many times on the two-way radio. I recall him running a local from Tampa to Drew Park when I last heard him.
Great vid once again Danny. Do you know what day the RB train is headed to Orlando? I know it has to be in the next few days. Thanks!
cflRailfan
wow nice vid!

I Dont go to florida much but I have 1 question. Is the A Line where the Amtraks go?
Can you really tell the horn model from that quick video?

Great videos, as usual. Glad to see the circus train again. It's no more, now in 2018. No more B&B circus, either. Thanks for the memories.
He was SEABOARD all the way!!!!! That's wright LOL!!! When it came to running a locomotive he was one of the best or the best' he thought so.lol. I KNOW HE WASNOT A SAINT BUT WHO IS. dad was a good man , he provided well for his family. DAD WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. THANK YOU DH.
Man, your just phenomenal what you do !!!
Ted Cartwright Thanks Ted. I really appreciate your kind words. The "Baldwin and Back" show is one of my favorites.
@CommuterColin0906 Yes. Amtrak runs strictly on the A-Line in Florida except south of Auburndale, when it runs on the Seaboard to Miami.
DH
What was done with the cars on the circus train, once the circus closed-have you heard or seen anything?
I don't want to be anything mean, but the ACL runied the L&N and the CC&O, My grandpa doesn't like the family lines because of the bosses he had while working for the "L&N" at that time.

Much appreciated, John. Glad you enjoy the videos.
Thanks!
That was production music from a library. I can't remember the name. Don't have it anymore.
Excellent video, Danny. Liked the GEVO horn on the AC44 and the railfan remark on the scanner.
What song was that at the beginning of this video?
Good video Danny sad THAT the Ringling brothers are gone out of business it's...i always liked watching them

You need to make a new edition of this! Just showing how much the layout has changed.
Why does 281 have a K5HL?
Great video Danny, great to see the back to back video sets

Damn animal rights activists ruined it.
Great job as always, Danny, keep them coming....

Alex
Wonderful job Danny! I love the CW44AH on the coal train with the K5HL, and I got a laugh out of the announcement of the railfans at Vitis when the Circus Train came! Thanks.
Danny, thanks for another great video!
Great package, Danny. Good job spotting that Clinchfield hopper and getting that crew swap at Orange Heights. Very cool. ;-)
-Ted
Top notch Danny as always!
Conrail unit
I always loved watching your videos. Can't wait for the next one. :-)
its owned by CSX but was a Conrail Locomotive Before the Conrail Merger in '99 which brought that particular locomotive to the CSX Railroad
UP 3991 on Q208 is an ex-SP SD70M. Very few of those on the UP system.
awsome videos danny! these are the most organized videos iv seen if you know what i mean
Great video sir!
Conrail! at @ 2:37
@acltrainman1963 Technically true, Stan. but i could stand on the Yeoman Old main and hit those Circus cars in Uceta with a good sized rock. :-)) Thanks!
DH

Yes he sells dvds. Still does as far as i know.
Amazing videos and I love your voice
Erik McCottrell Thanks very much, Erik. I'm glad you enjoyed the shows.
Glad to hear you mention Tallahassee, Sub. LOL I was at the B yard a day ago, U making me want to work 4 CSX LOL
Had to return to watch it again, Danny. Didn't you have a nickname for the engineer on E092 or was that somebody else? Better than anything seen under the Pentrex label... Outstanding!
4:02 Union Pacific on a CSX Line going by a gateless railroad crossing
Ever come out to Northern California, chasing CSX?

DH
@ 4:09 beautiful horn what horn is that?
4:17 Ex-SP SD70M 3991 miss the SP
What a shame to see the Tropicana cars all full of graffiti. Nice video anyway Danny.
Was the Conrail loco at 2:47 owned by CSX, or is it part of Conrail Shared Assets Operations?
ww32 Conrail Shared Assets Operations is owned by CSX and Norfolk Southern. All equipment is from CSX, or NS. CSAO is based in Detroit, New Jersey and around Philadelphia. They also work on the Northeast Corridor between Philadelphia and New York. And the Dash 8-40CW is pure CSX. Conrail doesn't own equipment like locomotives anymore.

What was that weird bell at that crossing Vitis Jct?
GameTrain 54321 Type 4 E-Bell or a type 3
Trainandfiretruckman 9000 Ok Thanks :)
+Trainandfiretruckman 9000 type 4 e bells don't even exist today. That was a mechanical bell probably from RACO.
A hah
=] thx
Danny,When I pick up my dad at the airport,We always pass this EMD CSX Boxcar logo-ed i think GP40 at the tri-rail station on I-95 and it is awesome why not come down to Fort Lauderdale and railfan!Railfanning the FEC won't kill you one day and video it right?
2:57 That's Q452.
what is the counterpart of q652
CSX2665 I believe the counterpart train for Q652 is Q441.
The first one
At 5:14 what type of locomotive is that?
A CSX AC6000CW
@distantsignal ok, thanks Danny
HOT!!!!
did ebells even exist in 2011 xD
+Garrett's Trainz Studios! They've had them in Florida for at least 10 years.
hmm im still not satisfied that theres no e-bell xD
xFleax they've been around the US since 1992.
