This year I was with a German travel group to the big BigBoy race in Salt Lake City. With the Frontrunner we went to Provo to visit the Heber Valley Railroad and two times there and back we used the FrontRunner to Odgen because of the BigBoy and because we found a pub where there was a good black beer ;) Fast and comfortable and not far from our hotel.
Love the footage! I have a question for you. I'm trying to get some footage of the frontrunner to use in a few small RUclips ads. I came across your footage and feel like you have some real amazing shots of Frontrunner! So I was wondering if I could use some of your shots from this video? Looking forward to your response.
@@20PINKluvrhaha I happened to be on the cab car co-drivers side and there was a car off-roading around the Provo area, before provo city when it’s around nothing, and the horn was blasted haha
Nearly the entire system travels through residential areas and to reduce the impact on nearby homes engineers aren't required to blow the horn at railroad crossings. They still do it when passing a stationary freight train or if there is any kind of obstruction on the track.
Quiet Zones. This allows for operating with just using the bell. If there is a stopped train on an adjacent track, work crews near the alignment, or any type of emergency situation the horn is used. It greatly cuts down on the noise around neighborhoods and reduces the potential for people to become complacent at the crossings.
I was frustrated with quiet zones, my mom and grandma don't like quiet zones. I'm from Decatur, IL, and I was glad they're keeping the horns, because it keeps everyone safe.
i was taking pics of the trax, but the cops came up to me and wrote down their my personal info on their notes and required my ID card. Have u ever had this kind of experience? And how to you cope with it?
Texas Trains well I had one officer telling me to stop taking photos because the trax facility is a secure zone(?) and it's dangerous. Regarding him taking my personal info on his notes, perhaps he assumed I was some sort of Chinese spy or sth? Although I'm South Korean
I’ve had UTA officers threaten to arrest me, and charge me with trespassing for photographing Frontrunner, and Trax trains while on station platforms. They’ve said it’s illegal to do so, but UTA themselves have stated otherwise. I would suggest staying away from any platforms because UTA officers don’t really have a say when you’re not on their property.

those background mountain were so beautiful.
I agree, the mountains were very beautiful, definitely a change from the flat landscape of Texas that I'm used to
I live in Utah and I love riding the Frontrunner!
Sweet! I was very impressed and enjoyed it while I was there.
Or do you like Ebells on cab cars? 7:54
wait you are TEXAS TRAINS, not Salt Lake City Trains but anyways something new every day!
One of the best things that ever happened and Utah
I love the paint scheme on these
1:07 also forgot that some bombardier have transtronic E-bells
I loved this Ebell on The cab coach 1:24, 3:06 and 5:06. Except flybys 7:34
Cool train. First time I’ve it. 😃 thanks for sharing I liked and subbed to your channel 👍
Terrific catches!
Thank you!
Nice 🙂
nice
Amazing!

Cool video
Thank you!
wanna know something? Did you know that front runner bombardier coaches don’t have horns only bells
They actually do, they're just mounted on the underside of the car so that they're not as loud
Texas Trains ok
Texas Trains also the bell is a transtronic E-bell
Nice! One thing i hate about frontrunner is that their entire route id a quiet zone
I felt the same way as you
They blow the horn only when a crossing gate isn't working

There's something I don't understand about this rail system: How come the trains never blow their horns?

I had two officers tell me I wasn’t allowed to film with a tripod on the station platforms. Other than that I’ve had no issue.

@@앙도시철띠 If you were at a facility, and not just on a platform, it is a secure area, with Railroad Police having exclusive jurisdiction.
@@AVeryRandomPerson I was on the platform. And I think I was near the railroad crossing shooting videos too

Here is a good alternate view of what it looks like from your 0:30 to 0:55 time point.
