What f59 was trailing in the second clip?

What kinda camera? I'm interested

In the US, freight trains are veeeeery loooong! You can smoke a whole package till the bars go up again!

Your title is misleading. The videos of engine 4014 are years old.

4014 is not just being restored, buy completely rebuilt to new standards to be in service for the next 50 years.

Oh absolutely I would love nothing better to see that 4014 running I still love the Challenger in the 844 or so need to get all three of them going

I hope the same care and dedication goes into restoring the Challenger cuz I really would like to see it be running to

That cab car on the one that was 6953

2105 :D

3002 :D

During summer breaks from college in the late 1960s, I worked the extra board as a main line brakeman on the Penn Central between Toledo and Cleveland, Ohio. One afternoon, our eastbound manifest freight was put in a siding to clear one of the two mains for the westbound RBB&B Circus train. ~ Because of its "antique" rolling stock, the circus train was operating at a restricted 45mph on what was otherwise 60mph-(freight)-limit track. I was startled when I saw the haze of gray smoke that accompanied the entire length of the train. I asked our conductor, who was on the ground with me stretching our legs, if we should signal their passing caboose of one of the dangers for which you inspected passing trains. He chuckled at my newbie enthusiasm and pointed out that the circus train cars were mostly still equipped with journal box axle bearings and that a miasma of smoke was pretty typical for such ancient equipment. ~ Prior to the preponderance of radio communication, hand signals held sway. it was SOP to inspect passing trains and signal their crew with either a "highball" wave or one designating some noted danger or problem. For instance, the "smoke" signal was holding your nose; "locked brakes" was sliding your palms against each other. Immediately following, you'd indicate the location on their train by giving a count from the "head end," tapping your head, or the "tail end," tapping your butt, then finger flashing the number of cars, holding up your hands and opening and closing your fingers rapidly. As trains were often passing one another at high speeds, the signaling had to be very quick to be discernible. These and other elaborate hand signals could look like a strange dance on a rapidly receding caboose platform-like an industrial Macarena. ~ Even though their old equipment had a certain traditional, classic appeal, it's good to see that RBB&B updated their rolling stock. Thanks for the vid.

UP 942 is now part of a weekly rotation with the other locomotives at the Orange Empire Railway Museum so come and visit and you may very well get a chance to see this locomotive pulling the museums' mainline passenger train.

Enjoyed your video and always look forward to visiting the railroad museum. They have done a great job in restoration of all the rolling stock.

I like the cab car 2310

Could I get one?

How did u get a ride?

Good video

Thanks I will be there running trains for the upcoming Fall Tractor Show in October. The building is open free on Saturdays 9 am - 1 pm with exception to times that there is an event that requires paid admission onto the grounds.

Nice video! Good to see a FP45 still operating.

too bad you wont be there saturday!

Thank you for your reply!!! I just think it is so cool my production is Coastertrains and I see the name coaster on the locomotive and cars. That's my railroad. LOL

Thanks, and thank you for subscribing. I do not know how familiar you are with the rail lines in Southern California. In case your not I will share a little info. The Coaster is a local Commuter line that runs along the coast between Oceanside,CA and San Diego,CA it makes regular stops in pretty much every city along the line. I encourage you to check out my other videos if you haven't yet I have some taken at a railway museum that I volunteer at.

I LOVE IT THE TRAIN SAYS COASTER AND I AM COASTER TRAINS GREAT VIDEO

I am hoping for the museum to be able to someday restore their other 2 standard gauge steam locomotives one of which is an old UP Mikado and the other a saddle tank, but for that they need enough people who would want them to be restored along with donations to make it worthwhile. Which is I think is pretty normal for any museum. I mean if a museum has enough people interested in a restoration project of any kind and can get the needed funds to do it then it will be done otherwise it will not.

Cool! That's kind of funny because it was my first steam locomotive to see in person as well. This was also its first weekend back in operation in a little over a year due to it having been disassembled for a complete inspection and receiving any necessary repairs.

VC #2 was the very first steam engine I ever saw running. It was 1987 and I was 13 and my parents and I went to the Railfest and I got to ride in SP and UP cupola cabooses behind #2. I wanted to ride the seats in the cupola, but the competition for them was a little much. #2 sure is a handsome little engine!

Thanks.

They do but I like whats at the OERM a bit more.

thank you.

Great video

They do have great equipment there. Nice video.

Great video! 13:38

Well I will be there both weekends so come by and say hi if you want.

I might be at the antique gas and steam this weekend or next weekend, I do not know which though.

yes I have i think its great that they are finnaly able to do it, I volunteer there so I have kept up with what has been going on somewhat. The last I heard was that the restoration was expected to be completed this November.

have you heard they're restoring the santa fe!!!?? it sucks. Nice video! Nice to see it in its old paint

thanks

the other 2 railfans that were there that day were Enrique Ayala and Fan2la

Ah, interesting. I feel bad for the crewman who had to ride the point and call out car lengths for the entire trip.

It was headed south to hook up to some ballast cars. they were apparently doing some track maintenance work somewhere in the Encinitas La Costa area I cannot remember the exact location but it was down that way.

Nice video! What was the story on the Coaster loco running light?

Cool. well I guess I will see you at the show.

I'm getting a K5LLA tuned to sound like an SD70ACe and hopefully that can come along too

I camp there

Sorry no I did not, I will be there at the June show too. Will you be camping at the museum or just be there during the day? I am usually ariving there at my groups building between 7:30 and 8:20 AM during the show. if your there early yourself come on by I should be there. I am interested in seeing your RS3L set-up.

Yes, the model railroad was awesome! Did you see me carrying around my RS3L train horn? I will be there in June when the next tractor show comes around, hopefully with a golf cart and my RS3L mounted on it.

thanks for noticing, also the reason for the two Amtrak trains being on different tracks was that they passed each other just north of the station I did not get it on video but that was the reason for it.

Nice catches Andrew! That was cool when that Northbound Surfliner was on Track 1, and when the Southbound Surfliner was on Track 2. I wonder why the northbound was on track 1 and why the southbound was on track 2. BTW Poinsettia is spelled wrong.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately from what I have heard it is not run very often due to California environmental agency rules or something along those lines.

Nice to see the FP45 still running, and good gyro light action as well.
