    The two NS locomotives running light in Roanoke at 0:40 are called "kissing locomotives". Apparently, two cabs coupled to each other this way results in a lot of pain for engineers to drive long hood forward, either direction!

    • @kennethhanks6712
      @kennethhanks6712 Před 9 měsíci

      If you study railroad history and development you will find thru the 1800s (this line built in 1860-70s) that many communities wanted/had to have tracks thru mid-town for convenience and development as rail, other than horsepower or foot, was the only real efficient means of transport. See many towns along the Monon, Jack London Square in Oakland, CA, etc.
      A few instances thru geographical layout, town development, whatever, like La Grange remain.

    @wayneyadams Před 8 měsíci

    1:41 He is probably safe enough going under the car since the train cannot start up that fast. so he is not in that much danger. His danger comes from that second track which could very well have a high-speed train bearing down on him. I watched a video from an old documentary about train accidents and it showed a man and a woman who decided to cross in front of a train stopped at a station. What they did not know was that a high-speed passenger train was approaching on the adjoining track. The man was able to stop and jump back in time, the woman was not so lucky, she walked right into the path of the train. They stopped the video just before she was struck and killed. This is the danger this Darwin candidate really faces. In fact, it is the most dangerous thing every Darwin candidate faces when crossing through stopped trains, the unknown of what may be approaching on the adjoining track.
