Andrew Raila ‘Bammers!(AKA The RocketCity Railfan)
США
Добавлен 6 сен 2015
Hi, I'm Andrew, better known as Andrew Raila 'Bammers, but can also be referred to as "The RocketCity Railfan". I am a Railroad RUclipsr from Huntsville Alabama(AKA "Rocket City, USA"), and college student in Altoona, Pennsylvania. I have content like, Train Museum tours, creative steam locomotive top 10s, a series called "Garbage on the Rails" where I talk about unsuccessful locomotives, Engines of the Pere Marquette, and locomotive biographies. I also showcase Lego train MOCs of mine, as well as occasional music videos and photoshopping tutorials.
If you enjoy any of that on RUclips, please subscribe for channel support.
I am a crazy Big Boy fan, longtime Pere Marquette 1225 fan, and recent Conrail and SD80MAC fan.
I used to do destruction videos from the start, but then I quit at doing them, they didn't get too many views. I also used to be a World of Warships RUclipsr at the same time, but I recently moved it to my 2nd channel.

Railroad yards, bridges, and vintage locomotives in Billings Montana Aug 1 2024

Billings has been a major Railtown and hub for the Northern Pacific and its successors in Montana since its inception in the late 19th century.
Just outside city limits is a bridge crossing the Yellowstone River. This bridge collapsed in the summer of 2023 under the weight of a passing Montana Rail Link train, spilling hazardous materials. It was the final accident to occur on MRL before it was taken over by BNSF at the beginning of 2024, amidst the ongoing process of fitting its 900 miles of tracks with PTC.

And I've got plans for the 20th anniversary of The Polar Express movie. Soun...

Like what GM did in the automotive sector, they squandered a market lead making curious business decisions.
Babbling Presenter. Poor👎
19:42 HELLO LITTLE BROTHER!!! Lol 😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes
The union pacific 8000 then?
This is Jenks Shop in north little Rock where the big boy will be at on September 15th I'm so excited
I’m actually making an HO scale model of US Army 1702 in its as-built appearance.
Here’s to hoping that 722 gets its Illinois Central 3 chime that it wore on the steam program back when it returns to service.
ABRAKADABRA! 'Switches it with 1111'. Aah much better.❤
CHOO CHOO! And jet plane sounds!
THE MILWAUKEE ROAD
Why does 1 one of them have UP livery?😮
“The reason the Milwakuee did this was that in the twilight years of intercity rail service on the private railroads, they held the contract to connect the Union Pacific trains from back west into Chicago. So the UP colors on a Milwakuee unit matched the colors of the UP train they were hauling into the city. Prior to the Milwakuee, the Chicago Northwestern held the contract and they also had Armour Yellow painted units. Back west at Ogden for a time the Southern Pacific had Armour Yellow units too for use on the City of San Fransico. The City of San Francisco units were interesting in that while they were painted yellow, some of them had heralds for both the UP, CNW, and SP on the nose (for example this one: kellistanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/City-of-San-Francisco.jpg )” - xboxtravis7992; cs.trains user
@@AndrewTheRocketCityRailfan4014 So a bit like the EMD E2?
THE MILWAUKEE ROAD
Can we have 10 British steam engine that are getting a new build
But 4449
Wonderful resonance.
EMD when it finds out they can’t keep cranking more and more horsepower out of a 645 because things start breaking: 😮
Imagine if you were there when the big boy or the 844 were running.
You surely can feel the vibration touching this bell after ringing.
Wheres this at?
Liked the Warbonnets included! Funny how 701 spelled out "BNSS" from having an H2 panel door. Congrats on 8k subs too.
Bit weird how the two fakebonnets had '701' in their numbers. Quite a weird coincidence.
Andrew Raila ‘Bammers!(AKA The RocketCity Railfan), cool video keep up the good content
Personally Thomas should've been an E3 class or at least an E1
Gordon?
Know Jeremy coulter?
No
Greeley's UP station is inaccessible to the public unless you were part of the chamber of commerce which is in the building. I am not sure about when a UP excursion passes by.
N&W... There's no stopping uuuuuus!❤
Wow 😢 I am from india who love American train ❤
Hearing the history of both 425 and BETD 15 just puts a smile to my face
What's Genesis Rail?
Some railroad contractor
wait genesis rail is leasing them now?
Chat, is a 2-10-6 freight tank engine a good idea
