  • We got together with railfans/employee railfans and had a great day observing heavy action on both sides of the Hudson River. Lots of ribbing and castigating of things and a poor unfortunate railfan home with Covid. He was a good sport though and took it in stride. We got lucky and caught the MN Conrail Heritage engine #201 twice along with the Hickory Creek Observation Car on an Amtrak train. All trains indentified on all railroads

    I like when you do railfan videos with other railfans, it makes the videos more fun. Nice to see conductor Paul out with you guys.

    Another great video. Loved the footage you got in California. Conductor Paul and I are old friends and former coworkers. One day I hope to hook up with you and him.

    Awesome, myself and the better half where on the Seastreek out of NJ heading to Milton, NY for a fall foliage cruise saw that train I162 and three more including the auto rack train. Plus metro north on the east side of the river. Awesome day.

    That must be the bell that woke up Rip Van Winkle!

    It was a pleasure to meet you at Mine Dock Park. It looks like you all had a lot of fun which is what the hobby is all about. Sorry you did not get to see the pair of UP GEVO's on M434. It came through Dumont just after 5:00 PM which means it got up to Mine Dock around 5:45 or so. He got out of Oak Island really late...that's the way it goes. My son Jason posts his monthly videos on his channel 'JWZ Railfanning'...Enjoy and be well, Vincent Zablocki

      Quite a surprise to meet you. How did you know it was me or did you just recognize my voice? Would have been good to see those Union Pacific engines.

      He took it in stride. I think if he couldn’t, he would’ve been in a padded cell by now. 😀😀

    Great video, I noticed you have the same exact kind of scanner (uniden) that I have!

    • @3985uprr
      @3985uprr  Před 8 měsíci +1

      The scanner is good and it’s very reasonably priced. The only thing I don’t like about us is that it eats battery power real fast

    Is this something unusual to the freight engineers to to see you guys out there

    • @3985uprr
      @3985uprr  Před 8 měsíci

      There are always a lot of real fans on that line so probably not

    So Conductor Paul wanted to a documentary on the private cars but he got pissed off and kicked the stump cause he missed them?
