    Wow! Excellent catching all the trains in multiple locations, especially the CSXT9969, Geometry Train, in Fairport, New York, Loram, railgrinder, in Waupaca, Wisconsin, and so much more, I like them, they're awesome, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much and have a nice day.

    It is a bus from Argentina, which runs from Ushuaia to Alaska. But I know them from Argentina. You can find them on CZcams. because of the inscriptions on its side. They are now passing through there but their destination is Alaska.

    The Freight thru Ashland with the Caboose was moving at a fair pace. CSX 4702 looked very nice, with an Engineer putting-on a good Horn-show for the Railfans. Great to see a Bay-window Cab (Shoving Platform) at Covington and in such nice clean condition.
    Most of all, the Youngster at Tucson reminded me of how my Dad described my own reaction at that age - whenever I saw or was near a Diesel Locomotive.

      @@jamesmckenzie3532 Cheers. That is just what I would do - go running onto the Platform with my Dad frantically calling me to stop. In the UK though, there would only be one Loco - we never get Lash-ups like in the States, you lucky Railfans.

    I like the cupola-less caboose and the white engine. I was wondering if the Loram train was spraying for weeds but my questions was answered by another comment. And the engineer working the horn for those young railfans. I'm sure they were thrilled.

  • @bowlinerailfan
    @bowlinerailfan Před měsícem +10

    The new CSX C&EI heritage unit is on the bowline as this is posted. I just saw it over an hour ago. So it'll likely be on the grab bag soon. Also, a PanAm boxcar with a Department of Defense caboose, a weed sprayer train, and the UP passenger cars returning to Omaha after their run with Big Boy 4014 in the first two minutes of this video makes a great start to this grab bag.

    That old Mack bus is a classic. It's owned by a string instrument maker who crafts some very fine violins and guitars. He has several social media pages if you're curious.

      That's what "Lutheria" was about? I wondered if it was a luthier or a goddess-Lutheria-fan (she is the lady of dreams who walks the underworld, greeting the spirits of the newly dead). Thanks for the info!

  • @donnaj9964

    Loved the sparrow in Ashland--"I'm ready for my close-up!"--and the Argentina-Alaska bus (cute doggo). Nice to see 4822 again, Amtrak in Skykomish was very pretty, and the snipe was really cool--hard to tell if it was Wilson's in that light, but the shape was right. Always neat to watch LORAM at work and see a MOW train. Thanks for another great one!

    9:18 what a neat camper bus! This is Argentinian Damián Stoppani, better known as lutheriasobreruedas. This Argentinian Instagrammer and his dog Baco are taking a road trip to Alaksa in a 1970s Mercedes-Benz bus that Stoppani rebuilt himself

      @phrayzee Před měsícem

      @@Surfliner486 not sure exactly. The Amtrak account on X/Twitter said that the trains were affected by “freight interference” and were delayed for several hours. Normally they’d split the train at Spokane and continue on their separate ways to Seattle and Portland as #7 and #27, respectively.
