Hello, and welcome to my channel! I normally railfan around Morton Grove, Illinois and other northern suburbs of Chicago since it is closest to where I live. I am now persuing graphic arts at college, so time hasn't been kind when it it comes to uploading stuff. But nonetheless, please enjoy!
AMTK 203 and 164 paired on Empire Builder 7 at Morton Grove
An unlikely set of units on Amtrak's Empire Builder- a colorful assortment at that.

CPKC 247/2-148 freight meet at Morton Grove during Metra rush hour curfew!
Просмотров 462 часа назад
With 247 delayed because of an earlier incident at Galewood preventing them from taking headroom, they still made the risky decision to send them north at the beginning of the Metra rush hour anyway. As if that wasn't risky enough, 2-148 got sent right into the madness right down to A5. Needless to say several delays were had, and some rare scenarios to be seen. Plus: a handful of passenger act...
UP 9696 in CNW paint trails UP MALPR in Des Plaines with more D9s, plus CPKC 2-148
Просмотров 854 часа назад
Enroute to rebuild after years of sitting idle... one of very few CNW paint units left on UP's roster. This is the second to go for rebuild in the past year- one more stored Dash 9, plus the 6706 (which is still on the active roster) remain. Prior the MALPR, enjoy the passing of CPKC 2-148 with a goofy mixture of manifest and intermodal. CPKC 2-148: CP 8018 lead, CP 8787 rear UP MALPR: UP 8346,...

With dispatch apparently unable to reach the UP, 246 was sent down to A5 with a KCS ACe on both ends of the train, and a CSX gevo in trail. Metra 500 at idle on the outbound not long after 246 is included at the end of the video too. KCS 4056, CSXT 5247, rear KCS 4041 1-27-25
Amtrak Phase 4 HU and Dash 8 paired on Borealis 1333 at Morton Grove
Просмотров 9716 часов назад
Prefaced by the Metra outbound they were following. After 3 and a half hours or delays, the Borealis was cancelled... until they changed their mind (possibly influenced by the Empire Builder's serious delays). The set of power was quite a nice combination, made up of their Phase 4 heritage unit and an endangered Dash 8. Outbound: METX 503 Amtrak 1333: AMTK 164 lead, AMTK 519 rear 1-23-25

On a very bonechilling day, I toom up an unexpected invitation to meet with a friend to head toward the southern Wisconsin border. While it wasn't the most exciting day, we acquired some action at an assortment of shots around the area, hitting up some new and some slightly familiar places in the progress. 1-19-25

CPKC 247 stops at Morton Grove with BNSF AC44C4M and gray ghost, PLUS Amtrak and Metra action
Просмотров 197День назад
A brief stop turned into an over hour long experience due to a Metra having mechanical problems in town. Metra 2607 and Amtrak 335 were to overtake CPKC 247 at Morton Grove, but the 2607's lead motor had issues prohibiting them from moving. With more passenger action coming south and 335 going north too, it would hold quite awhile before a hard reset of their motor fixed 2607's problems. CPKC 2...

With a bunch of Oshkosh JLTVs fresh off the production line and interchanged from the WSOR, the first CPKC 462 to my knowledge ran down from Milwaukee where they were dropped for them. NS 4009 was to be their leader, but a PTC defect ruined that plan. Instead they would take NS 4700 which was also at Milwaukee, and unfortunately for the crew, facing west. They went to Bensenville via the UP, so...

No comments? This one of the coolest passenger trains I've ever seen! I absolutely love that C&O Chapel Hill car. Great footage and video.
@@hakeemsd70m Thank you very much!
I don't see why everyone's so upset about it the thing is it sounds pretty nice I am a fan of both GE and EMD regardless at least there's still in the locomotives that sound like they should so we don't have to worry too much
The reason why crews don't like these units is because they are junk. Ironically the SD70ACE-T4's were based on the SD90MAC's which also weren't successful. The CAT 12-1010J's are literally EMD 12-265H's which the SD89MAC demonstrator had. The SD70ACE-T4's from the very start have numerous electronic issues. When working the units are somewhat decent but it doesn't justify the fact that any of them can work one day, be repaired, and then break down again the very next day if not same one just after leaving the shops. This was the result of CAT/PRLX ruining EMD once again. Both the SD70ACE-T4's and ET44AC's actually consume more fuel than any tier three or even tier two units still in usage. The railroads only bothered with tier four units because of taxation write offs from being compliant to emissions regulations. This is why more SD70ACE's are still ongoing and why alot of C44-9W's are being rebuilt because of not having to adhere to more stricter standards.
