AH Trains
Добавлен 29 мар 2019
This channel is all about trains. There are at least two videos a month that I post. One of them is the BNSF Wayzata Sub the other is the CP Paynesville Subdivision. Those are the two that I currently live close to. I often upload those videos on the last day of the month. Videos range from 3-10 minutes I try to change the angles during the video instead of recording the entire train. Always open to new ideas feel free to comment.
MTM Migration Move| 10/29/2024
The summer season for the MTM is over as they bring their equipment from Osceola back to Saint Paul. This move only happens twice a year and I get a thrill of seeing it mostly due to the fact it’s a passenger-looking train on the Withrow Sub that’s freight traffic only. Will chase the train from Grant to Minneapolis on the Withrow Sub.

DM&IR 332 Chase| 10/27/2024
Просмотров 44614 дней назад
Years of trying and failing, I finally got around to seeing the DM&IR 332 pull excursion service along the NSSR. Throughout the day will chase the two round trips between Duluth and Palmers. Will definitely come back next year as long as 332 is still operable.
Chasing BNSF’s Aberdeen Local| 10/23/2024
Просмотров 43521 день назад
In this video we discover new to me territory along BNSF’s Appleton Sub. Starting off just east of Aberdeen, at Bath, SD, we find the local with a GP60M and two SD60Ms for power. Will chase the train to the SD-MN border as the sun sets for the day.
CP 7018 & 7019 Leading 243 Chase| 5/20/2024
Просмотров 201Месяц назад
CP 7018 and 7019 lead train 243 on the evening of May 20th, 2024. Getting one these ACUs is tough to catch leading but getting two paired together would definitely fall in category of “rare and unusual”. We start the chase on the CP Saint Paul Sub at Little Canada, clouds fortunately broke off in time, letting in a bunch evening sunshine in on this special train. Next will catch the train on th...
Grey Ghost Trio on the NSM| 9/17/2024
Просмотров 237Месяц назад
NSM frequently uses ex-CSX SD70ACes but every once in a blue moon they use SD40-3s on the road train. I waited many hours at Toimi for this and couldn’t believe I managed to catch these three paired together. This was the last day of the trip and I thought I would be going home after the eastbound run but after seeing this incredible powerset I waited around and to see them head back west. I ha...
EMDs on H-WLMNTW| 7/26/2024
Просмотров 158Месяц назад
In this video we look back nearly 2 months ago when 1687 lead the WLMNTW down the Wayzata Sub. A simple 2 runby video before I had to go to work, one at Montrose and one at Minnetonka. These WLMNTWs are always nice to see on the Wayzata even though it happens every once in a while.
Railfanning Along the NSM| September 2024
Просмотров 355Месяц назад
3 months later I’m back to try my luck on this railroad. And wow did I score good with plenty of action this time around. We start off on Sunday the 15th with some early morning action along the Superior hiking train in Silver Bay, MN. Moving west along the line we’ll see the 0500 empties go to Babbitt and then return with the 1100 loads. Seeing an ACe trio, is a good catch as it’s normal just ...
Grand Rapids Turn Chase| 9/16/2024
Просмотров 351Месяц назад
I made a recent trip up to the northwoods and I always like to try this train at least once, the Superior to Grand Forks local. This time featuring 1832 and 1851 for power. We start the chase off on very western wedge of Wisconsin and work my way west along BNSF’s Lake Sub ending the chase at Grand Rapids as the day draws to a close. A fun chase but with the days getting shorter it won’t be lon...
RS3L! BNSF 676 Leading the Hinckley Local| 9/5/2024
Просмотров 4382 месяца назад
In this video we get to see BNSF 676 and 699 lead the Hinckley local back to Northtown. These particular locomotives rarely leave the yard so this was a must catch, on top of the fact 676 sports a Leslie RS3L, something that is difficult to catch out on the main. We start the chase at Grandy as they go by the double crossing in town, will get one more runby of the horn at Isanti and then end th...
TC&W’s Glencoe Turn at Chanhassen| 5/29/2024

In this short video we see TCW 2019 and 3 others haul 40 cars west for Glencoe as it passes by Chanhassen at sunset.
Weed Sprayers Along the CPKC and BNSF| Summer 2024
Просмотров 1612 месяца назад
An interesting train to find on the rails is the weed sprayer that typically runs in the early part of the summer. Will first see a BNSF one and then see the CPKC one featuring a KCS GP40-3, which is rare to see leading in this state.

Amtrak 7 Detouring on the Wayzata Sub| 7/21/2024
Просмотров 1473 месяца назад
A derailment on the BNSF Staples Sub in Big Lake, MN wiped out both main tracks on the morning of July 20th. Immediately after this happens BNSF reroutes their highest priority intermodal trains and Amtrak. In this video we will get to take a look of Amtrak 7 going through Wayzata in the early morning hours of the night on July 21st. It’s been 9 years since the last time Amtrak 7 has since gone...
CP 2816 Up the River Sub| 7/1/2024
Просмотров 2694 месяца назад
CP 2816 brings the return trip of the final spike tour back home to Canada after making the trip to Mexico City. With lots of delays on the Marquette Sub the 2816 didn’t hit the River Sub until sunsets and would be a night run to Red Wing. It’s pretty rare to see steam at night so I made the most of it and cut the chase at Red Wing. This would be my last chase of the 2816, some great memories w...
Amtrak’s Borealis| June 2024
Просмотров 3064 месяца назад
June 2024 marks the second month of revenue service for Amtrak’s Borealis, the train that runs from St Paul to Chicago. In this video we document the train along the Minnesota part of the route. Three different dash 8s have been showing up on this train lately, Amtrak only has 20 of these so it’s real treat to catch one leading.

Twin Cities Railfanning| Quarter 1 2024
Awesome video and shots!!
Love that old SDP40 325 in the Empire Builder paint scheme. I'm a BN rail fan and love old motive power specially
It’s nice to see the 332 operating in 2024. Looking forward to seeing the loco in action one day.
Really nice video!!! I was there also, but just filming the morning run.
Liked the classic EMD power captured! Greetings from Tennessee.
Great catches awesome chase and nice video
3-25 and a blue sky.
Great footage! Where dose this train run?
Aberdeen to Willmar on Monday and Wednesday. Willmar to Aberdeen Tuesday and Thursdays.
@@ahtrains ahhhh nice. Might have to get out there sometime
I saw this locomotive leading a southbound oil train in Burlington today
Woah ! Really awesome duo!
Awesome 💚 👌 👏 👍
Canadian crews are operating these trains
Glad you got these guys!
Rare sunny footage
Bro you sure this was recently!!?? Does this Ex Santa Fe dash 9 have the last RS3L horn!????? Keep an eye on it!!!😊❤
Nice one! Glad 1832 is back , Gevos got boring on it super quick
@@Minnesota_Rails Not the biggest pan of the paint condition on 1832, but it is a unit I have not caught leading so it was a little worthwhile to catch while being up in the Northwoods. Next video will be about the NSM of what I caught on the 3 days I was up there.
Awesome catch ! I saw these two a little bit later in St. Cloud tied down
Nice one . Haven’t been up there before . Where would the best location be to see these guys ?
@@Minnesota_Rails Best location to wait around would be Nelson Road Toimi. People rarely use the at road, so you can peaceful hope a train is coming there. But if you want the most action, it would be down by Silver Bay but there aren’t many public viewing spots there without the risk of NSM telling you to leave. All the spots along Airport Road are owned by NSM and can tell you to leave if you’re waiting around there.
Nice video.
Glad you got em! Neat night scene!
Are you railfanning the Wayzata sub at all today? Amtrak 8 is on the sub, and it looks like at least one z train is lined up to head west.
Great catches awesome chase and nice video
Good stuff!!
Awesome RS3L
Magnificent brother another jewel trapped in video greetings
Awesome chase . Aren’t coals pretty rare on the hinckley ?
Yep, Brainerd Sub is the more preferred route.
@@ahtrains ah yes the nerd sub . Wish that connected to the lakes more west there would be double the traffic 😂
Sweet chase! Those are some pretty nice spots to see rapids at!
I hope we meet in person soon. Ill be in Wayzata area and cp.line too
Hi. Do you have plans to film trains in Wayzata in june? Ill be at the hotel landing in Wayzata that day for 5 days
Great catches and awesome video
Great catches and video of this BNSF rescuing this AMTRAK LONG DISTANCE train
I will be In the Wayzata Bay area from June 10t to June 14th. Do you have time to show me around the Wayzata and Paynesville Subs this summer? Im staying at the Hotel landing off of lake street
No
fantastic train
Steam power
STELLAR vid , Great locations and NO pacing shots that ruin things for other chasers , BRAVO , well done !!

Awesome videos! I hope to see her in Manitoba this summer! I wonder what the schedule is for the Empress?
Especially like the overhead shot at about 6:45. Also I don't see any signs of passengers aboard the train. I'd sure love to ride it!
When it left Calgary there was the hydrogen unit in front of the FP9s
Seen her in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. I shot a liitle video of her crossing the Swift Current creek on the trestle, this is on the CPR mainline.
Excellent video!
How did you get ahead to catch it so often? I see me pulling up in my blue pickup at 5:15. Chased it from Valley City to Enderlin. Great video.
I really expected to catch it only 4 times from Minot to Glenwood, thinking they would be flying down the main. They were only doing about 40 most of the way. I was in no desire to break as many road laws as some others were doing during the chase. I’m sure you noticed doing your chase. The road layout and railine don’t parallel the tracks so going from Valley city to Enderlin is an unfortunate section.
@@ahtrains Yep, I just followed a few other vehicles that left from VC down 94 and turned off in their direction and there we where at the Fingal crossing.
Very nice video and chase!
I want to see some speed
Nah, this trains speed is good enough. Remember, this is a nearly century-old locomotive, and running it as if it were fresh off the factory will bring unnecessary wear and tear on components - and there's not enough spare parts to go around.
And that misfit diesel
Wonder if the Royal Hudson by itself could pull the 17 cars.
Glad they removed those awful ditch lights
the whistle sounds so unnatural that i thought it was a recording being played by all the crossings
That's what a real steam whistle sounds like. Having grown up in Calgary, I have heard it several times on the steam train that operates at Heritage Park. It only sounds unnatural if you're used to the air horns that they use on diesel units.
@@bartwentink2189 i know what a real one sounds like. its just the fact that theyre using a push button to operate it like a diesel horn rather than the way a steam whistle is traditionally operated that makes it sound so unnatural. I'm use to hearing a little slide into the notes that the whistle plays because of pulling the whstle cord.
@@VirgotheDrusky 2816 has two whitsles, the original is a 6 chime located in front of the cab and pull operated but is too quiet to pass regulations for use in most provinces of canada and some states in the usa. so they use a newer but still quite old button operated steam whistle that is 2x as loud as the older one for basic rail use. There are vids on youtube where you can hear the 6 chime blasting as it passes by and it is majestic.
It’s always had that whistle. It’s real. I think it’s cool.
She’s beautiful. Thank you for the gift of seeing her in action. Ottawa Canada.
Thats the same train Ironman3406 posted a few days ago..very beautiful indeed!! Thanks for another shot at this wonderful sight👍🏻🍻
