- **MY 500TH RUclips VIDEO**
Finally reached the milestone of 500 videos, and here it is. A rarity as a Southern Pacific lumber manifest has one very unusual and extremely rare unit. GP20E #4144 makes a rare appearance, burbling with its normally aspirated 645 in unison with turbo-charged 645s. Just listen to #4144 as she helps pull the freight at Cable, she is out-shouting the other units including two tunnel motors. Such uniqueness and rarities like this can only happen with second generation diesels. The SP, EMDs, turbo and super-charged primemovers, tunnel motors and a nice mix of cars makes for greatest era in railfanning, this is all the proof needed.
Thanks for watching and enjoying my 500th video, I hope it was a great choice and one that meets expectations. - Авто/Мото
From 5:10 on to 5:36 that little old GP20 is really digging in shooting a steady plume of smoke straight into the air...👍💯
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! They had a good roll on them! I expected these trains to be weighted down and only going about half that speed; that was the SP’s reputation that I had read about, anyway!
This freight is the main reason why I'll always miss The Southern Pacific, they knew how to put on a show!
Hi, nice video, love all that SP power, this was proper railroading - such a shame it disappeared in that armour yellow mess.
The sound of tunnel motors… Music to my ears. Thanks for uploading
I like these videos showing railroad history. Thanks for sharing
damn, you have the best videos, thank you for posting those.
THE gp20E. the little engine that could and did.
THESE ARE WHAT I CALL REAL TRAINS , I MISSED SP WHEN I WAS A KID ROARING ACROSS THE TRAINTRACKS CARRYING SIX DIESEL ENGINES AND LOTS OF SMOKE BLOWING FROM THE EXAHST CAPS.
Thanks airing the outstanding vid.Bliss and elation
Awesome video, thank you for sharing! So cool to see the 4144 in action. It became the Iowa Northern Railway 2003 and I got to run it numerous times. It was a great puller.
I love this video a lot keep it coming with videos and photos
I'm on the east coat but how I wish I could've afforded to travel! Calif. must have been nice in the 70's - 90's if railroading was any indication.
That second clip looks more like Cable or maybe Marcel than Cliff. I don't think Hwy 58 is visible from Cliff, and I would expect to see either Tunnel 5 or Tunnel 7, depending on where it was filmed. Nice video--I like the Geep 20.
Yes, that's at Cable crossover. Loved the old SP!!!!!
Great catch! Thank you!
Cool stuff!thanks!
Awesome video, that's horsepower on the hill!
Very nice video!
Lotta helpers in the middle! Wow!
Super video. Very impressive. Joe
great video
Nowadays, it's mostly ES44AC power from BNSF and UP with their distinct "chugging" of the prime movers. And that's what you see mostly in California because of their requirement for engines to be EPA Tier 4 compliant.
What year was this recorded... pretty cool show of train strain! 👍😎
poor old gp20 living in 8
I see light packages in the middle set...what year was this recorded?

I miss sp a lot
Exact date of filming??
I'm guessing this is sometime in between 1985 and 1988
Was this over the Loop?
It did go over the Loop, unfortunately I didn't video that. Hindsight says wish I did. Caught the train at Bealville and Cable only. Gosh I wish hindsight would have been current sight and would have recorded it at the Loop.
Thank you! Just wanted to know.
What year was this video taken?
riogrande5761 1990 April.
