Turban technology was not as refined as it is today. Turbans used in locomotive was inefficient and costly, maybe today if turbans were used, they could make a unit that is both effective in fuel efficiency and fast for 80 mph service, passenger or freight

2:50 to 3:10 LOL - I'm unsure who this person is but I'm wondering if it is the assistant locomotive engineer/driver, however the psychology is fascinating - so the person jumps from the rear of the moving train presumably the loco at 2:51 and then runs ahead of it on the ground and then jumps/leaps onto the front of locomotive at 3:09 and into the cab...Then watch between 19:23 - 19:32 as the figure of a human can clearly be seen running along the top of the locomotives between the exhausts and emitting smoke...omg health and safety would have a feast on this behaviour in today's world of locomotive engineer/driver code of conduct. This video is excellent viewing so thank you to uploader JTOmaha greatly appreciated, pity no audio.

Cool video, but no sound):

I lived in Morgan. Saw and heard them daily.

Just wow!

Bird Burner

As a kid I would watch this train go past my house. The ore cars would drop some taconite pellets along the tracks and I would gather them up since they were dense and heavy and being the size of small marbles, they made perfect slingshot ammo.

Cool. In all my years railfanning and watching videos I've never seen a SD 40 with silver trucks in the yellow stripe scheme on ATSF. Thanks!

Awesome movie, thanks! I think the 5771 was one of the helper units?

That tank car is not in a lake, that is the Colorado River

What is up with the guy at 2:51 who hops off, sprints, then jumps back aboard?

Wow this is some fantastic old footage! Thank you for sharing it

Being from Jersey, I would never have gotten a chance to see these. This film is a real treasure! And the interesting combination of engines used is awesome! Behind UP #13 was what looked to me like 3 Southern Pacific SD45s, and behind UP #7 was 2 GP9s and a GP30 booster unit! Very cool!

Excellent

I’ve seen videos of 6900 standing still while on exhibit at the Centennial celebration but never while enroute to or from SLC. Great stuff here! Thank You for sharing this!

Beautiful.

street running wtih a DD40 and ore train. wild.

BTW, if you want to see it is perhaps a little better speed, change your Playback Speed to 0.75

Yap, this area looks familiar. That area where the road runs along side the tracks, on the road side is now a park, fairmont park. This right of way is now a light rail spur. Some of those buildings look familiar, at one point, 1:20 looks like the train is headed west bound crossing 7th east but it could be state street. interestingly, the name Sugsrhouse is the name of an old sugarbeet processing plant about a mile from this location that was converted sometime in the 1900's i think, into a prison and later, in the 50s it was torn down and the grounds turned into what is now sugarhouse park. Has a cool, steep hill for sledding. This area is just north of i-80 which runs parallel to this area.

Geeeezus! That track looks worse than the Penn Central....

And today it's a trolley line.

Where the tracks have more litter than ballast. Wow.

Seems like UP mainly was ridiculous in trying this over powered junk which all had short shelf live from steam to diesel

Considering their poor efficiency at slower speeds, I imagine they didn’t spend much time in passing sidings.

Track that would make Timothy Mellen blush

UNION PACIFIC 8500 디젤전기기관차가 KORAIL EMD GT26CW-2 7444호를 연결해서 장대 혼합화물열차 이끈다.

Super fantastic video

That doesn't appear to be mainline track.

So mundane and ordinary then, a treasure to see now. Glad whoever went to the trouble filmed this. I'd guess none of this exist anymore? Thanks for posting.

Some interesting track.

Rat nest track construction.

Wow, 5 F units in helper service. Thanks for a terrific video. More, more!!!

Nice mix of the first and second generation EMD's. Thank you for showing the placement of mid train helpers. A operation often not shown. And somethings never change. A large number of "White Hats" at the derailment. Things like always bring them out unfortunately. Thanks for sharing.

"So why were you guys so late today??" Well.... We had to stop of a P.I.E. truck fouling the tracks. Then a construction crew had a crane parked across the tracks. Then we derailed Then we almost derailed again but the Track Crew shimmied the tracks. Then we almost derailed a 3rd time

😍😍😍😍😍

I ride the TRAX Blue Line to work every day, and boy it sure is strange seeing the Challenger running where only light rail cars do today! Thank you for posting this amazing footage!

I love the doubleheader especially!

I have this on VHS. It has sound and doesn't shake. 🤪
