First, also Coasterfan2105 if you see this, I wanted to thank you for making my childhood i used to watch you everyday after school with my dad, you are truly the best railfanner, and I thank you for being around for my generation ❤
Well, thanks so much! I’m happy to hear you’ve enjoyed the videos all these years. Really appreciate it.
Recently moved to Virginia, your information at the start really helped me. I’m glad I now know where the trains run to, I live near Norfolk and I’m happy that I found out it stops there. Never stop posting stuff like this. ❤
Wish more railroads used galley cars, they look so good.
They do look pretty cool!
They aren't very space-efficient though
They also aren’t ADA accessible
I remember going to Virginia to see my family and seeing this train. You literally make my childhood. When I was younger, I used to stay up all night watching your train vids. Keep up the great work!
Nice Work on your video Mike-ster, The VRE Commuter trains was a big success. Thank you so much!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
@@CoasterFan2105 no problem 😉 😉👍🏻👍🏻
8:36 years ago today we were
rode VRE for about a decade when working in downtown DC. soooo much nicer than taking the metro.
I will be using it for the first time in the near future. So, thank you for giving me a positive expectation.
I have used Metro in the distant past, so I was thinking it might be along the same level of quality and crowding.
Thank you so much for uploading VRE trains! I live up in Northern Virginia, so I'm used to seeing them.
Cool video! I think gallery cars are underrated
Thanks! They’re neat cars.
Another very successful and appealing video from you! Greetings from Germany 🚄
Saw some of those trains during my dc trip back in 2022
Nice!

Excellent trains Compilation
Thank you!
Caltrain is starting EMU testing between SF and San Antonio Station tomorrow (weekends only). Hopefully you'll catch some EMU action there soon.
Thanks for making this video! I've basically grown up with the VRE. When I was younger, I rode into DC on the VRE with my mom a few times. We would always take the Fredricksburg Line from Woodbridge into Union Station. One time, we missed the train, so we hopped on a Northeast Regional that came a half hour later, which ended up being my first Amtrak ride. Good times!
Nice video man! I happen to be a Railfan based in Northern Virginia not to mention that my neighborhood is situated right on the bank of the Potomac River as well as the CSX Rappahannock, Fredericksburg & Potomac (or RF&P as we refer to it as) subdivision. I have SEVERAL videos of VRE Fredericksburg Line trains passing through my neighborhood in addition to Amtrak so this was pretty cool to see
Awesome video!! Great to see these classic MP36’s still running with those stainless steel gallery cars.
Great captures of the VRE trains!
Excellent video, Mike!
So close to 1 million subs!
Love your educational videos
Awesome video...
Hey coaster fan it’s me i just want to tell you your the best youtuber
I watched your videos when I was little
Fantastic video
Love it! Once the major railroad infrastructure improvement projects along the CSX RF&P Sub (DC to Richmond) are completed, there will be weekend service at least on the Fredericksburg line.
Awesome video!!
Great video
Great video it’s awesome
I heard that VRE is looking at possibly starting Saturday operations. Nice video!!
Hmm, that would be convenient.
I doubt it will happen but fingers are crossed.

@Coasterfan2105 In the near future I expect to have occions to use the VRE.

My home trains
Are all of the trains being led by the locomotive the evening outbound trains, and the ones with the locomotive pushing are all D.C. bound, or is it just random?
AIY WELCOME TO VIRGINIA DAWG

Niles Canyon Railway Diesel Locomotive Galore
Does VRE still own EX Amtrak F40PHR unit 403???
Can anyone tell me what they hear with Amtrak 822? I never heard from her again and she just seems to have disappeared!
Can you send a Metra train galore on next month pls?
I hate that they got rid of the F40PHs and the Geeps they use to run…
Vre mentioned lfg
Where do you film all your are trains if you ever up Orange City Florida to film Amtrak I stay at the State Park you could do a video together one day🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
When's the next train talk?
Possibly at the end of the month, depending on how soon I finish it.
