  • March 18, 2009: Five-engine 19G gets whiplash while crossing 11 crossings in downtown Lebanon on the NS Harrisburg Line. I bet the crew was holding on!
    Power: (Slots 3-5 are 92 Day JBS)
    NS D8-40C 8300 with one whailing Leslie RS-3L
    NS D9-40CW 9383
    NS SD40-2 3429 "Conrail"
    NS GP38-2 5283
    NS GP38-2 5288
    January 3, 2013: Also, this scene no longer exists, the buildings have since been ripped down and bridges have / are being constructed where this very crossing once was! Also, the tracks are in much better shape.

    • @DannyTOG
      @DannyTOG 3 года назад +1

      That wasn't a long horn blast. The air line to the horn on the rear was bleeding or clogged and causes it to keep blowing a bit after you stop pulling the lever.

  • @CentralPennRailProductions
    @CentralPennRailProductions  15 лет назад +4

    It's a bumpy ride, but that doesn't necessarily make it dangerous. The reason for the bumps is the close proximity of crossings... there is enough track bed to keep the gauge in place and I don't think we have to worry about rolling a rail here... I imagine when summer comes they'll tamp it, etc, but the clean conditions don't last long. Trains do 40 MPH over this, though some crews probably lay-back. I understand your concern, though, it looks like one heck-of-a-ride.

    let me tell you this, That is one Whailing Nathan P-3 with a working #1, silent #2 and a #4 barely working on low air supply to the bell. I have done research on many railroad picture archives on this loco before the year 2010. But later on It did switch to a well working Leslie RS-3L. It's still sad to know that the c40-8 locomotives are gone now, you will always be there in our hearts. 💖

    Over here we call that cyclic top. The top and line has a series of dips and peaks. If these match the freaquency and harmonics of the vehicles suspension traveling over it, it can quite litteraly bounce the train off the track. It has happened! Lucky for NS its about 40 here and not 60!!

  • @Utubearchy
    @Utubearchy 9 лет назад +1

    You'll notice that the locomotives bounce much more than the wagons do. this is due to their finer suspension systems. While those vertical oscillations look conspicuous, especially with five contiguous units at the head to the train, the suspension systems on the locos help to maintain wheel/rail contact, tractive effort while ameliorating theeffects of discontinuities from less than ideal track.

    • @MarkInLA
      @MarkInLA 9 лет назад +1

      +Hy Phenation Not too sure, but I believe the trucks on modern engines like these allow the wheels/axles to some how 'steer' in some way; allowing some kind of either, play, or very regulated axle swiveling of some kind, that they're not fixed in one place..Some new technology...No ?

    @o00o00ozy You are correct on that comment. Mud is a problem on every railroad, and you can have the best drainage ditches in the world along side the track's, but it still will not prevent the water from seeping up through the subgrade& roadbed. With the tracks pumping up& down all the time when trains go over the track it will eventually make mud come up through the ballast.
