Trains of Des Plaines, IL - 8/7/2019
Des Plaines, Illinois, a suburb about 20 miles outside of Chicago, is home to Deval Junction, the crossover point between Union Pacific's Milwaukee and Harvard subdivisions and Canadian National's Waukesha subdivision. It is an epicenter of rail action, hosting everything from locals to road trains to passenger trains, and during weekdays especially, it can get very busy.
On this day, I joined Kyle (BNKATO Trains) on a bike trip to the Deval area. We started off by shooting UP's "6 AM" local job around the Norma curve, eventually being surprised by a duo of Geeps bringing two cars to Waukegan. We later made a trip to CN's section of the diamond to catch local 501 returning to Schiller Park...

Metra 405 with an incredible Nathan M5 airhorn
Просмотров 16 тыс.5 лет назад
After the displays closed down, Metra sent the 405 out for a few photo runbys between control points B-17 and B-12. Somehow, a Nathan M5 horn found its way onto this unit, and it sounds amazing. Hopefully it sticks around for a while. Here is the 405 heading east on its second runby, past the "freight half" of the equipment display. CSX 911 and 1776 paid a visit to this year's event, and they a...
Union Pacific 1943 leads an OCS through Glenview, Illinois
Просмотров 2906 лет назад
After an action-packed chase the day before, I went to West Lake Avenue in Glenview to catch the 1943's return trip back south. Andrew (TheRailAviator777) and Will (Will_Dube_Railfan_Aviation) joined me for this one. What a train to see as one of my final for the summer.

Been a while, hasn't it? Anyways, this clip is nearly a month old, but I found just enough time to upload it. This is one of many clips from my two and a half day-long stay at Riley's Railhouse in Chesterton, Indiana. It just so happens that Jay (United Railfan) was spending the night there as well, so I'll put a link to his channel in the description. All in all, it was an awesome trip, and I ...
Outstanding consist in UP's Proviso Yard - 1/19/2018
Просмотров 1966 лет назад
While riding Metra's UP-West Line to Elmhurst, I spotted this monster consist sitting in Proviso Yard. Despite my frantic heads-ups, we had thought this consist was out of sight by the time we all reconvened at Elmhurst. When we drove up to Berkeley, we were pleasantly surprised to see the consist in a semi-shootable location. Apologies for the shakiness; my camcorder was nearly at max zoom. Tr...
Metra 415 and 155 lead a weekend doubleheader - 1/20/2018

Stopped by Mannheim once again to catch a few freights, but then this train came. For those that don't know, 155 was reassigned from the UP lines for reasons I am not sure of. My apologies for the shaky footage and strange audio; I filmed this on my DSLR.

With winter break coming to an end, why not railfan a bit. Today, the team and I headed out to Franklin Park and Bensenville for a day of railfanning on CP's Elgin Subdivision. We spent a good amount of time at the Franklin Park station, catching a few freights and Metra commuter trains. Around 2:00 PM, we headed to the Mannheim station, which is right outside Bensenville Yard. There, we caught...

Amtrak #519 leads Hiawatha 338 - 11/4/2017

I paid a quick visit to Morton Grove on this Saturday afternoon to meet up with Mark (AmtrakFan221), and after catching CP 813, we biked to Beckwith Road to catch B32-8WH 519 leading on the Hiawatha Service. Not only was the 519 leading, but 90368, a recently rebuilt/repainted NPCU, was trailing. To top it all off, the Milwaukee Road "Superdome" and Siemens Charger #4613 were on the tail. It wa...

AMTK 90368, a former Phase III NPCU, is now in Phase V paint. It spent its first weeks of post-storage service on the Hiawatha Service. I was lucky enough to catch the 90368 on a nice day in Morton Grove, before I biked home after a successful bike trip in Chicago. Enjoy!
LORAM Rail Grinder at Lake Forest - 10/15/2017

It was a rainy day in Lake Forest, but the rain, thunder, and lightning didn't stop us from railfanning. Today, Miles and I rode Metra down to Lake Forest where we met up with Andrew, the owner and founder of A-Train4014 Productions. I did not bring my camcorder, but when the LORAM Rail Grinder came through, I decided to set up my DSLR to film it. It sure was interesting to finally see this int...
CP 198 at Lake Forest - 10/7/2017

Today, I drove up to Lake Forest for the first time, and, while there, I caught CP intermodal train 198. It had the usual GE leader. I was not expecting to railfan today, hence why I only had my phone on me, without a tripod. So yeah, nothing too special, but it was nonetheless nice to see a train. Enjoy!

      I’m still around, just got busy with life and kinda fell out of love with the whole RUclips thing. I do want to eventually start posting videos again, but I’m thinking about exploring my other areas of interest (aviation mainly), instead of just trains again. But first I want to get my hands on some decent editing software and a camera that can take decent video. Who knows when that may happen, but hopefully it is sooner rather than later. I have a ton of ideas and visions for projects.
