This train was 199 cars, including 4 engines. 3.2 miles long. I have photos of this train passing through Walton, Kentucky. There are some trains which pass by Walton loaded with empty auto racks headed to Louisville, which are 3 miles in length. This is only the 2nd time I have seen Abrams on the rail in 15 years. Pretty cool running through a little town like this.
I recommend that if you go, do it on a Monday or Wednesday. There is a short train that passes through twice on those days in the morning. Otherwise you may or may not see a train
Another great shot. Yep, refurbished M1 Abrams tanks. You can tell with the desert sand paint on the tank tracks that had surface rust on them, and no army unit markings (that would normally be on the fenders).
So were these tanks probably the ones withdrawn from Afghanistan? It would make sense for them to be in need of significant overhaul after years of deployment in the ME.
Oh man, that was a long one. Double DPUs. I think it be awesome to be having lunch there somewhere and watch as the train passes by. I think I saw a few "cadillac grainers" that Shoestring would love, Haha. They cleared the yard on that one. Moving the entire courthouse!! Wow! Shout to Norfie and Chessie and the gang!! Thanks Jaw Tooth!
After seeing this video, I quickly remembered an event told to me, during my locomotive engineer training, from our instructor. He had some tanks in his consist. Thinking that there were no close clearances, on the subdivision which he was traveling, the dispatcher called him on the radio informing him that his train was knocking down billboards, from the overpasses they had just traversed!! We can laugh now (no one being injured), but I learned a valuable lesson, from his mistake! Those are always the best kind of lessons...learning from other people's mistakes!
The trouble for many is they ignore the lessons and need to learn on their own. Some people would like to eliminate the military but as long as other people in other countries have militaries we will need to keep a very substantial military. For example, if the Ukrainian government had not maintained and improved their military in the past 7 years, the Russian's would have already "won" Putin's war. Since the government in Ukraine did provide for a substantial military as well as reserves, they are able to fight very well to protect their country.
We had to travel through here today as part of a detour of the interstate. A train was traveling through town with car haulers in the consist. No idea how long it was but a locomotive was at the end of it
Best video ever! Talk about up close & personal! Loved the sounds, and the power pulling it. God Bless our military. Hey Norfie glad you're recovering.
Awesome catch JT as always from LaGrange to get the BEST STREET RUNNING TRAINS EVER! What a consist w 2 CSX leaders, 2 CSX DPU's and 203 mixed freight cars! Well done and thanks for your time and effort!
Son, you were so close the tracks, along with everyone else! What a cool setup to see the trains and tanks, up close and personal. I look forward to your smiling face and your trains every day. THANK you so much.
Train 575, 12,515 feet in my favorite street running town of La Grange, Kentucky. JT, you sure know how to turn on patriotic display. Well done, & GB ! 🥯🥞🍟🍕🌭🍡🍦🍭🍰🧁🍾🍷🍸🍹🍺🍻🥂🥃🥤🧋
Also interesting to see the train accelerate after the head locos clear the street-running section. This would be a good place for JT to use that radar gun during the video. 10 mph entering the street, then accelerating to ?? As the DPUs went by, they did not seem to be straining much - maybe they go easy with them while they are in the downtown street to control noise and smoke, then crank it up when all 4 (2 head and 2 DPU) are in the clear.
Hello again from the UK. I love this video. A really impressive train with such a great mixture of stuff. The trains street running through La Grange always looks surreal, but this time the army tanks made it even more so. Interesting look at La Grange from a few different angles as well.
What a beautiful old downtown. Love to see them saving the old courthouse. Too many times these old buildings are just torn down. My town has only a handful of older buildings. It feels like the town has lost its soul.
More Army V Corps units deploying from Fort Knox to Europe. The Headquarters units deployed at the beginning of the month. One of the best outfits in the Army! Good video!
Thank You JT! Was glad to see wasn’t All Tanks. Was really L O N G with a Double DPU’s!! I’ll bet everyone there was happy the train didn’t blow their horns at every intersection!!! Also glad to see that being on their own ‘Right of Way’ didn’t have to stop at every Stop 🛑 Sign either!!!! 👍🏻🖖🏻
10 mph speed limit entering the town 25 mph leaving it. No horn zone. But can be used if necessary at t he engineer's discretion. Mostly for someone blocking the train's path
@@donaldstanfield8862 there was a NB which stopped at the 4 way stop sign. East west gates went up so that traffic proceeded. Reason was an idiot with an attached trailer trying to parallel park doing a very bad job of its. Basically at 10 mph from where they begin the shared right of way a train is able to stop before the main intersection
Wow. Flatbeds, box cars, tankers.. all kinds cars. All different cargo too. Great video! I've seen houses moved, but that court house is huge and heavy! Wow.
This is another great one, Brian. An impressive train going through an old part of town with funky architecture. I hate to sound like a broken record, but I'll say about this train: It took about 760 + trucks of the roads. That's just one part of this country should do more shipping by rail.
So, as a railroader myself and one who lives in a community with many railroads, trains this long is not okay. That entire town was split in half for over 10 minutes. Imagine an emergency where seconds can mean life or death and the first responders are stopped by a train. Precision railroading is not the way. CSX should have at least split this train into two.
Do us a favor and stay in California, or whatever socialist dump you're from. This is the way towns were built , railroads built , since the beginning. If you don't like that fact then stay out of these places. You'd be doing the locals a huge favor.
Every time there is a video posted about La Grange, someone always asks why they do not reroute the tracks outside of town. Because of the topography and development, there is no place to actually move the tracks and if there was, it would cost multiple millions of dollars. Actually as someone posted the town promotes the trains as a tourist attraction. If you have the opportunity this summer, stop in La Grange and hit the shops. There are several restaurants along the street, my favorite is "119 W" but as Jaw Tooth said, plenty of others. Several motels in the area and its not far from Louisville, plus Lexington and Cincinnati area. Plenty of wineries and bourbon distilleries in the area as well.
Those tanks are cool! Each one is probably $8 million - that's a lot of money there :) I love street trains! That was an excellent train. Very cool. And the movers do some serious moving!

Hello there. Dear my lovely friens, Mr. Brian. I haven't seen you for a long time, but how are you? Thank God for the reunion. Thank you for inviting me to this beautiful and intense tank footage from a beautiful US satellite studio. Is your home ground in Oklahoma?

There was two houses on my street that were moved in when I was a teenager the whole neighborhood stayed up all night to watch. It was something else. That long train was something else also. Thanks for making your videos they're great.
Nice catch of Norfolk Southern train #575 at LaGrange, Kentucky on 23 March 2022. That was a neat train to watch beginning with the military tanks after the lead engines. Thank you for documenting this train. I look forward to seeing the video of this train that you took earlier in the day. Thank you for uploading this video for us to watch!
It is so weird I think see a 12000 feet long train riding the street. Beautiful video/sight though! The clouds and low sunshine make the worthwhile to watch. Thanks fot my DDoT Jaw Tooth. Enjoy your weekend.
Hello Jawthooth, Extremely long train. Military tanks appear to be brand new. Variety of cargo but one long train. I love how there is shared roads with trains and cars. Thanks for your video.
Wow ! How long is this train! We must be close to a record… Thank you for this great catch! At the head of the train, I counted 16 tanks. Fortunately, the whole train doesn't just carry tanks!
@@donaldstanfield8862 The ship was an old style "Tank Landing Ship" being used to move Russian vehicles and a couple hundred tons of ammunition. One of three ships actually. She was attacked, the cargo went up and the ship went down. The two others were hit by flaming debris from the first and were still loaded and afire as they left the port. They were able to put those fires out and those two headed for home.
@@donaldstanfield8862 ah yes desert colors for Europe 🤦 they're more than likely being sent off to get upgraded, I spotted a lot of old equipment strapped to the turrets that was present overseas that's no longer used.
Great catch Jaw. Those looked like M1A1 Abram tanks in desert colors. Ways things are going in Europe, might have to repaint those. That was an interesting mix of freight cars on that train. I assume there is a horn ordinance in that town, just the bell at the crossing. Thanks Jaw.

That intersection at 0:34 could really use a light. A two-mile long train through the middle of town can really ruin your morning, lol - thanks for another great street-runner, JT! Have a great weekend.
Pretty sure traffic engineers have studied that intersection and have decided a light there is not only not needed but would actually create more problems than it would solve.
Wow, just creeping, that is tight through that downtown. Wonder how long this type of track location will last!? Nice to hear the double dpus just chugging at that low speed, fascinating set, wow! Isn't it crazy how they can move buildings! Love how well your pets get along with each other, so awesome! 😁
@@FiddlePig Bet they've had some close calls with people not used to such tracks, sure is a packed and busy strip, looks like business is booming there, wow!!
@@FiddlePig Wonder is there even room for a car to pass between train and cars parallel to the train? Other side, yes, but looks like they're trapped until it passes in that tight space!?
There primary problem with the route is a short siding. Only about 8000 feet. With PSR many trains exceed it. PSR has reduced the number of trains. SB Q205, Q209, Q217, Q573, Q575 which this one is take this route, NB Q208 & Q574 usually but not always take this route. 3 other NBA usually take the LIRC route. The exceptions are if the train is less than 8000 feet. Or it is a key train. What that means it has 10 or more tank cars carrying cargo which presents a poison inhalation hazard. The reason for this is is the LIRC lacks PTC or positive train control.
Awesome video, one of the best. Wow, what a mix. Like two really long trains put together!! But wait, there's more ... moving a courthouse, soooo cool! Thanks.
Talked about mixed freight! I love it! With precision railroading, are they building a single train with DPUs? Or are they taking two trains and just putting them together and turning the lead locos into DPUs? Because in a few instances, I could see the freight cars after the DPUs are very different from those after. (For example, maybe on half is mostly grain, and the other is mostly tankers.)
Great video....I am going to be in LaGrange May 4 to the 9th for Derby week. My niece lives there....Would be cool if you were going to be back there....we could meet at the viewing platform
Great shot of LaGrange Ky. Main Street, CSX are doing longer consist, good shot of the tanks👍, I understand that NS is going to ramp up their train length of their consist if not already doing so a cording to RailPace Magazine, I’ve see NS use DPU, but not nearly as much as CSX & UP. Hey JT, as always enjoyed the vid , take care & stay safe out there.👋😎🛤🚂

What a beautiful old downtown. Love to see them saving the old courthouse. Too many times these old buildings are just torn down. My town has only a handful of older buildings. It feels like the town has lost its soul.
This town is not commercial at all, just a lil village, no need for big stores or other buildings.
The sheer tonnage being moved at one time is fascinating. It’s nearly inconceivable that so much weight can be in motion at one time.
On the dry land it is impressive. However on the water a large ship can carry much more in order of magnitude.

As a former tanker the first part of this/these trains is a welcome sight. As a parent trying to get kids to school this leviathan is a nightmare.

Wild world of trains had a military shipment today that is gone from view.
@@gaborgredely1848 I wonder, how the ukrainians manage to have a stand against the russians and hindering them of getting achieved their goal. For me this seems suspicious already. What were we (we as europeans, I was a child in cold war era) afraid of the "giant red army" in Cold war and now it turns out to be a structural and personal mess not knowing what it´s doing. Weird. Very weird.
Nice army tanks on csx trains
Great video JT! The tanks slowly moving thru small town USA looks pretty ominous. Very mixed freight on that train for sure 😊
Thanks 👍
Ominous ? Those M1s have no markings and they are in primer paint, nothing ominous here. Those tanks are brand new or possibly rebuilt
@@gloriatg100 None of what you said has anything to do with them looking ominous.
@@PlanetMojo Yes it does look up the definition of ominous. You think something is wrong here and there isn`t. I`m an old soldier, 4 years U.S. Army I feel great pride in seeing those M1s
@@gloriatg100 I understand your thought, and his. I agree with his - as in, there's no trusting what guv "officials" are doing. They are against America, and Americans. not to put too fine a point on this topic, but I wonder: will US troops ever attack Americans...hope I don't live to see it, if they do.
Happy 'training' :)
Very nice trains Jawtooth! Thank you for amazing train video! DPU Alright! I enjoy your train videos!
That intersection at 0:34 could really use a light. A two-mile long train through the middle of town can really ruin your morning, lol - thanks for another great street-runner, JT! Have a great weekend.
Pretty sure traffic engineers have studied that intersection and have decided a light there is not only not needed but would actually create more problems than it would solve.
@@perchlarkin 😲
Why dont they reroute the trian around the city of Lagrange ky
@@jamesvanscoy7717 a majority of NBs are. But it has nothing to do with the town.
@@jamesvanscoy7717 Ask CSX...
I was at work with Virtual Railfan on another screen, saw you videoing in back of your pickup. LoL
Wow, just creeping, that is tight through that downtown. Wonder how long this type of track location will last!? Nice to hear the double dpus just chugging at that low speed, fascinating set, wow!
Isn't it crazy how they can move buildings!
Love how well your pets get along with each other, so awesome! 😁
Train rolls by with just a car width between it and parked vehicles. Scary but cool.
@@FiddlePig Bet they've had some close calls with people not used to such tracks, sure is a packed and busy strip, looks like business is booming there, wow!!
@@FiddlePig Wonder is there even room for a car to pass between train and cars parallel to the train? Other side, yes, but looks like they're trapped until it passes in that tight space!?
@@donaldstanfield8862 mostly with people who forget they have a reverse gear and/or can use their accelerator to get out of the way
There primary problem with the route is a short siding. Only about 8000 feet. With PSR many trains exceed it. PSR has reduced the number of trains. SB Q205, Q209, Q217, Q573, Q575 which this one is take this route, NB Q208 & Q574 usually but not always take this route. 3 other NBA usually take the LIRC route. The exceptions are if the train is less than 8000 feet. Or it is a key train. What that means it has 10 or more tank cars carrying cargo which presents a poison inhalation hazard. The reason for this is is the LIRC lacks PTC or positive train control.
Awesome video, one of the best. Wow, what a mix. Like two really long trains put together!! But wait, there's more ... moving a courthouse, soooo cool! Thanks.
Hey JT, nice just nice. Definitely a weird traffic pattern, wondering who thought of building a town around those tracks 🤔🤔
Easy for deliveries
Probably before automobiles were common
Been there since the 1800s I reckon.
Great catch! Tanks on a street running train. Also wonder if Virtual Railfan got a shot of you. LOL.
Talked about mixed freight! I love it! With precision railroading, are they building a single train with DPUs? Or are they taking two trains and just putting them together and turning the lead locos into DPUs? Because in a few instances, I could see the freight cars after the DPUs are very different from those after. (For example, maybe on half is mostly grain, and the other is mostly tankers.)
I’m my opinion we need to move much more by rail…free up trucks for food and perishable goods.
Great video....I am going to be in LaGrange May 4 to the 9th for Derby week. My niece lives there....Would be cool if you were going to be back there....we could meet at the viewing platform
Crazy site, train going thru main st. Good video!
Great shot of LaGrange Ky. Main Street, CSX are doing longer consist, good shot of the tanks👍, I understand that NS is going to ramp up their train length of their consist if not already doing so a cording to RailPace Magazine, I’ve see NS use DPU, but not nearly as much as CSX & UP. Hey JT, as always enjoyed the vid , take care & stay safe out there.👋😎🛤🚂

Тем временем, кому-то на другой стороне улицы понадобилась скорая медицинская помощь или пожарные. Безумие!

Sweet train spot the cars with the flat wheels great location thanks for this one
No problem 👍
Wow it seemed never ending!
nice very nice again with a very long train passed by and in street running mode
Thank you very much!
Thanks again for your Videos 📹 😊 of the Trains 🚆 😀 👍 😄 I just Love ❤ 😍 too 😀 👀 see them, keep up the great work 👍 👏 😀 !! That little town looks like little towns in East Texas !!
Glad you like them!
😊coooool that building on wheels from Edwards.that happens here to,also with windmils,see in Delft NL.😊
Wonderful footage. It takes me back to a Golden Age when trains pulled everything.
WOW JT! Nice shot from rear showing business end of the tank after they passed!! Very interesting!!! Thanks for video!!!!
Yup! That train had it all. It would be neat to see a private coach hooked up and rolling too, but you can't always get what you want.
I wish I could find older photos from here back in the steam era.
Contact the local history society or museum in this town, they might have some available online.
Have a great weekend Jawtooth!!
marvelous video, nice to see Norfie is still her 'spunky' self despite the operation. Thanks always
Glad you enjoyed it
One of the best street running videos on here!
Wow, thanks!
I was waiting for the "Wait. There's MORE!" You did not disappoint!
Fantastic JT.... Army tanks & tanker cars! Just amazing that was a great catch far more interesting than shipping containers 😺🇬🇧
Wow! The only thing I can think of to say. Wow!
Thanks for capturing the long train and movement of the court house friend. Excellent video!👍🏾👍🏾
Amazing street runner! Wow. Thanks!
Long trains are good for street running. Thank you JT.
You got that right!
Wow awesome that train is 3 miles long
That was a great train that you caught in LaGrange.Well worth the trip and wait.I'm going to The CC Sub in Butler Monday.Let me know if you want to stop by. Thumbs up.
Sounds great! We are going to be getting some good weather soon
@@JawTooth Yes.Looks like I will be there at least two days next week.I have been lucky catching trains the last few times there.
A long train for a city street. Thanks for the video and chat and pets!
Glad you enjoyed it
Ladies and Gentlemen ~ The new LaGrange street view cam. 👍
Yes, thanks!
WoW. I didn't think it was ever going to end! Truly a smorgasbord of cars.
