2+ Mile Long Train, 4 Locomotives Drops The Signal! 2 Mid Train DPUs, Norfolk Southern Trains!

220 cars on the first train. Love seeing the fallen flags cars. I noticed The Rock and Boston & Maine. I spent 17 years on the Rock Island until it ceased operations in 1980. Love your videos.

Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 23 Mar 22.

The railroads are asking for trouble with those 2 mile long trains. We had a saying when I was an Engineer. "Uphill slow, downhill fast, tonnage first, safety last" Nice videos JT.

This episode was particularly meaningful to me as I worked in Miamisburg at the Mound Facility in the 1980s & 1990s. You were at 3rd Street and Mound Road. In the background I could see the NAPA repair shop where we employees could drop off our cars while at work. So many memories came back. I now live in VA. Thanks for the memories

First train was sooooo long I figured you'd be a snowman by the time it passed !!!! Second train -first 3 centre beams were all railroad ties !! Another good Jawtooth catch -becarefull out in the snow !! Regards

Thank you for documenting these two trains in Miamisburg, Ohio. I noticed that there was a former blue Rock Island covered hopper car that appeared at 7:55. It curently has MWCX reporting marks. I have a feeling that this car may have also carried CNW reporting marks. The Chicago & North Western Railroad puchased a lot of these blue painted "Route Rock" covered hopper cars after the Rock Island went into bankruptcy in early 1980. The Union Pacific inherited the former Rock Island cars when the Union Pacific merged with the CNW in 1995. The Union Pacific has sold off these old hopper cars. That first train was a long one. It certainly needed the four engines that provided the power to move it. I see that Bill Morris took your challenge to count the cars in that first train and came up with a number of 218 +/- cars.

The way the first train was slowing down sounds like it was already in breakdown mode

Amazing horn on that first train .

220 cars and 4 engines on first set & 177 cars 3 engines on second awesome

Good Morning Sir Jaw Tooth Thumbs Up 2 DPU together in 1st train see little snow on the ground Thank You Sir

8:52 That red Ford pickup on the other side of the crossing, I still see a lot of those eighth generation F-series pickups on the roads today.

Woo Hoo! Double DPU! Looks like that train will split in two.

Good morning from rainy central North Carolina!

You caught an OREKS tag at the end! Second to last car. That artist is sick!!

221 freight cars 2 locomotives front 2 middle of train thank you again Jaw Tooth

The train lengths and their car varietes clearly indicate the prosperity of the region. It has changed a lot since several decades ago when I was considering working there. That was a good one, JT! Thank you!

Real Train Action on a Real Train Channel. 👍 The Action on this Channel is ALL Killer and NO Filler. 😬 Thanks Brian! 👍

Awesome video! I just love hearing Norfolk Southern's horn as it approaches the crossing. Gives me goosebumps watching the train approach. It says stay behind those gates 'cause I'm a'comin. And that train was really moving. Have a nice day 😊🌈

Good morning Jawtooth from Trion, Georgia. Good video.

Accurate painting of Marvin the Martian. That artist is very good!
