South Morrill Road #2 Railroad Crossing, Morrill, NE
After we got the train on the South Morrill Sub, we moved up into town and saw a headlight down the BNSF Valley Sub. I got set up in time for a BNSF loaded coal headed east. This video is also slightly out of focus.
This crossing is a 2000's BNSF install that hasn't seen any major changes.
Locomotives:
-BNSF 9266 (EMD SD70ACe) H3
-BNSF 9250 (EMD SD70ACe) H3
-BNSF 8452 (EMD SD70ACe) H3
Location: South Morrill Rd. #2 (Morrill, NE)
Train: BNSF Loaded Coal (Symbol Unknown)
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights with Harmon Fading LEDs, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, a General Signals type 2 electronic bell, RECO LED gate lights.

South Morrill Road #1 Railroad Crossing, near Morrill, NE
Просмотров 1722 часа назад
On August 27th, me and one of my friends decided to head up to the Morrill Nebraska with the goal of catching a special train. That train in question was tied down in the meantime. This was our first catch; a UP coal headed east. It also had a string of sand hoppers at the end for some reason, likely part of a local. Also, the video is slightly out of focus, thanks to me forgetting to turn back...
83rd Street Railroad Crossing, near Niwot, CO
Просмотров 1454 часа назад
This was my first of two catches on August 26th; a BNSF mega empty coal train headed north on the Front Range Sub. I decided to catch it at 83rd near Niwot. This crossing is a cool one, being an 80's BN Safetran install with the original mechanical bell (likely Safetran) being replaced by the current GS Type 1.

Market Street Railroad Crossing, Keenesburg, CO

After I got the Z, I went east a bit more and got to Keenesburg. The nearby signal at W Keenesburg showed a green, so I decided to wait and see what shows up. Turned out to be an empty coal headed east. Since I last filmed here, the closest signal ended up getting knocked down and replaced. It appears the wishbone mount was reused.

On August 23rd, I decided to head out to catch whatever was coming on the Brush Sub. When I got to Hudson, I saw that the signal was green. I moved to the CR 51 crossing and saw a headlight. I quickly got set up with like twenty seconds to spare. The train turned out to be the westbound Z train from Chicago. Since the last time I was here, BNSF replaced the US&S Model 95 on the nearest signal a...

After I got the stack at CO 52, I decided to end the chase and start to head home. Once I got to Boulder, I got word that the Buck Local was headed back north. I decided to get them at 63rd, even though I had filmed it the month prior. This crossing hasn't seen any changes thankfully.

CO 52 Railroad Crossing, near Niwot, CO
Просмотров 38521 час назад
After catching the stack at Baseline, I decided to chase it to CO 52 near Niwot. Ended up making it with like five minutes to spare. This crossing is a neat one, being a 90's BN install. The original mechanical bell on the farther side was replaced before 2007. The closer side's was replaced between 2007 and 2009. Overhead LEDs were likely also installed in the mid to late 2000's. This crossing...

On July 22nd, I decided to head out and try to catch any trains that might be coming on the FRS. In Westminster, I saw a stack train with a Dash-9 lead headed up. I decided to chase it to Lafayette. I ended up meeting with Rhett (@louisvillerailfan) to catch it. This crossing is a cool one. It appears to be a 90’s BN or even BNSF install. The possibly original GS Type 1 is also still here!

US 385 Railroad Crossing, Holyoke, CO
Просмотров 196День назад
After we got the grain in Paoli, we would chase it to the final spot we could catch it at, in Holyoke. This crossing is probably the best one on the NKCR. It's a 70's BN install with all the lights being replaced at some point. This crossing still retains two rare Harmon gate mechanisms and even the original Safetran mechanical bell! Glad to have this one recorded. Locomotives: -BNSF 8333 (GE E...

After we got them in Haxtun, we continued to chase them to the next town, Paoli. This crossing is another 80's BN install, with the original mechanical bell being replaced between 2008 and 2023 as well as the gate lights. Still a cool crossing!

All the time that I worked in that area I never caught a train at that particular crossing.
Great video and nice crossing!
Great video!
Great video, crossing, and catch! That's an absolutely massive coal train there.
Mechanical bell and the old school gate mechanism! I love it! I really need to get to this part of Colorado. Once I am settled into my new house I will make a trip to this area.
Nice video! Just subscribed!
@@OklahomaRailfan_Productions Thanks!
Super Video 🚂🚂🚂🚂🛤🍖🎳
Great video and crossing! Love those older Harmon signals with their original gate mechs!
Great video and crossing! Love those older WCH signals, even if the bell was replaced!
Great video and crossing! Love the incandescent lights there.
Great video and crossing!
Exellent❤❤❤
hear this dd all the time :)
Great video and crossing! Love the old Harmon gate mechs there and that Safetran mechanical bell!
Great video and crossing! Love the GS Type 1 there along with the incandescent gate lights!
Nice! I need to explore Colorado more to see these crossings.
Hi im a railfan in coloardo
Good Catch !! Not many capture trains on the Colorado Plains. However, this is a mainline thru track and gets up to ten trains a day headed into Kansas or Denver. Ben, I have subscribed since we cover the area and similar interests.
@@Denusa Thanks! This isn’t a mainline, instead a shortline that only gets a few trains a week.
@@PlyingKibbles89 Sorry, my error, I have this confused with the line that goes through Wray, CO. This is the line that goes through to Holdrege, NE
Great video and crossing! Love those old gateless WRRS signals.
Great video! Interesting how the closer signal has two working e-bells on it.
Nice video and great crossing!
The bell on the cantilever should be disconnected; the bell on mast will only work.
@@TPNWR10 Both bells were installed at the same time and both were ringing.
I think this crossing and all the other crossings on this line will last longer than the ones on G line and N line
@@NCFO-rq3hm Seeing how WCH equipment is usually higher quality than Siemens, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Sounds like New Zealand railroad crossing
What does mrl stands for
@anthonynal Montana Rail Link.
Sounds like New Zealand railroad crossing
Too bad that cantilever got knocked down. Nice to see a WCH E-bell on it though. BNSF really overuses GS bells IMO. Also it looks like they set the new one up like the OG. With the over head lights on one side. Nice catch!
Funny enough, I caught UP 1943 leading last week on the UP Gila.
Great video and catch!
@@freebrickproductions Thanks!
I’ve been to that crossing many times.
This is a typical modern BNSF cantilever installation, and would also be paired up with a Siemens signal.
First time seeing RTD commuter rail use general single nstead of safetrain
@ImSlickDaFox They switched to GS Type 3’s around 2021/2022 for replacements.
But Wait Where's the crossing gates?!
There aren’t any. Gates aren’t required for any US crossing.
Wow that's terrible malfunction least nobody walking or driving could've got hit by a train
I doubt anyone would be stupid enough to cross if the train is already on the crossing. This issue has since been fixed anyways.
But there's no train approaching
There was, just stopped short of the crossing.
Great video and crossing! At least the other old cantilever there survives.
Thanks!
Great crossing! Love the WCH mechanical bell, shame about the wind though.
Thanks!
And the gate stripes are the traditional style, not the new.
The defect detector in Ripley, NY has this same voice.
Both are likely Progress Rail ones, which use the same voice.
Great video and crossing! Love that pure 80s BN install!
Thanks!
Great video and crossing! Love the old Harmon gate mechs there and that GS Type 1 e-bell!
Thanks!
A very nice crossing indeed! Great catch.
Thanks!
Great Video 🚂🚂🚂🛤🎳🦃
Thanks!
Hey That's my hometown
Great video, catch, and crossing! Wonder how long it'll be until we start to see the MRL locomotives renumbered into BNSF's roster?
Thanks! Kinda surprised BNSF hasn’t already patched/renumbered them.
Good video and crossing!
Thanks!
Great video and crossing! Love that pure 90s BN install! What's with the piece mounted to the closer signal that's sticking out?
Thanks! And I’m not sure.
