While I'm not a big fan of NS anymore, as they seemingly are doing whatever they can to make train crews' live even more miserable than they were previously, I give you mega props for an excellent production: footage, cuts, radio chatter, and well-timed explainations that don't override the natural sounds of railroading.

That's why I love RUclips, you can find videos made by passionate people about pretty much anything, and a lot of these stuff are quality content. What a time to be alive hehe !
I’m a commercial pilot and this all sounds very familiar to me. I had supposed that train traffic sounded like aircraft traffic but shocked at exactly how much! Cool video, great commentary but really loved the radio chatter.
You are correct. I am both a retired commercial pilot and locomotive engineer for a class one railroad. My aviation career started with my enlistment in the US Air Force as an aircraft mechanic / flying crew chief on C-130s. Then after my first enlistment I stayed in the reserves as a flight engineer on C-130s. Before I got out of the regular AF I had my commercial, instrument, and multi engine. It was surprising to me how much the AF and the railroad were alike. Both were a hurry up and wait operation. Even in the civilian flying. Sometime I made more in waiting time than I did flying.
@@billmorris2613 can be REALLY hard making money flying. I flight instructed for 17 years but 9-11 put the nail in the coffin of that career☹️Thankfully I also have work as an industrial design engineer, specifically foundry tooling that has ALWAYS paid the bills and kept braces on my kids teeth. Thinking about mixing it up when I turn 50? Maybe dirt work or trains or something else fun!
Flyanb I did it mostly as free lance when I was off from my full time job of running trains on a class one railroad. I would hangout at the FBO at MSY, ( New Orleans Int ) where I kept my airplane. Which I had on a lease back to a company that had it in charter ( Part 135.). If the flight originated at the company I had it leased too, I had the first choice if I wanted to make the trip. Which I did most of the time, and got paid by the hour. If the flight originated any where else I got all but a finders fee.
Videos like these make me appreciate the multitude of people in the transportation industries. A thousand interactions occur nationally per hour in such a seamless manner that we rarely see them in the news. Hats off to the men and women who make this happen every day!
I came upon a torn up siding today in Sacramento, was shocked when I looked at the discarded rail from the old siding switch and saw the date was 2005. Looks like it had been sitting next to the main line for much longer than that. The siding was right across from the Siemens yard. The main line was still used but half of the rail for the siding was in the culvert next to it. Each industrial leg dropped 3 feet off the ballast to cross the road. Must have been a pain to use, especially as it acts as access for a winery, lumber yard, and a grout/cement factory. I have to go spotting their soon. Siemens is so loaded with cars that they can't even get them all behind the anti-rock-throwing net. Makes an amazing backdrop. Absolutely awesome you have such old rails. Couldn't find much of that if I tried in California.
I was walking along the track in Santa Cruz, CA. around twenty years ago and saw a rail marked "Carnegie 99", so around 100 years old at the time. It was very warn. The top of the rail was down to about 1/2" thick with noticeable cracking along the length. The line renewed a few years later with new track. The line was serving the local Wrigley's chewing gum plant (bulk corn syrup and sugar) and a cement plant in Davenport, CA. Both are now closed.
@@CentralPennRailProductions I'm glad to see that most of the cars were not tagged; I, too, really don't appreciate the graffiti. Your commentary says that the rock cars are neon green, but they look lemon yellow to me; not sure if that's because of the camera or because of my eyes (I do like yellow better than green). But it is an interesting train; I've never seen one like that before. . .
@@CentralPennRailProductions and if you notice on that first train that 5 car high side well cars... they're getting rare to see!!!.... They only haul 40s in a world where you better be able to do 53s
A really well made production! Great camera work and informative narration makes this a pleasure to watch , plus the cab chatter is a bonus! The traction motor blower fans would of been working overtime on that climb for sure, kicking up all that dust Great work Sir. Cheers Gregg.
Wernersville! One of my favorite local spots. One time I caught three trains in a row, in the same direction, with less than 10 minutes between trains!
The words caught my eye central penn .i grew up around a train yard as a kid penn central was only around a few years after prr and newyork central combined later owned by conrail many of the old lines in my area no longer exists but my passion for trains still exist
i live in sight of the greencastle yard.occasionally the same thing happens here.about every 10 to 20 minutes there is a slow moving train in both directions (single tracks by my house) untill everything gets cleared out.i can feel the vibrations of a southbound coal train before i can hear it.when they pass the house, you can tell the power units are straining to move all that weight.when under full load they make some serious vibrations when it passes.
The ballast cars look pretty new and state of the art GPS ballast drop guided. I've saw these types of cars working. They never miss a spot in dropping ballast, UNLESS, the earth bound tech doesn't enter the coordinates accurately. This is a really nice video too. Thank you.
That's a busy section of track with 3 Eastbounds back-to-back. Those new Amtrak rock gondolas are pretty neat. Until now, I have only seen that style car used to haul rock in Florida by FEC Railway.
These trains give a huge clue as to what is happening and the future of items coming in. You can see the tractor trailers as well as the cargo containers. Though some mention is made of it. You have to appreciate that these trains can employ 3 people and transport dozens of trucks or hundreds of cargo containers instead of the dozens or hundreds of truck drivers it would have took to return this stuff to the ports.
This is great content! The commentary, the volume control was the best! So many times these videos just end up being blaring horns and commentary your constantly changing the volume trying to hear and not lose your hearing from a k5la on your home theater system.

You are so right. That Harrisburg main line is still very busy. I grew up along the main line east of Reading, and also lived on the west side of Reading. It would be great to have a virtual rail fan camera along that line, especially since we live in South Carolina now.
Awesome video w/good explanation!! Can learn a lot about operations, not just watch. Cab chatter w/ dispatch & tower commentary teaches about their jobs!!
Very well done! I really liked the old station at the beginning, historic railroad structures are fascinating. I'm surprised I haven't come across this channel before. Subbed!
I remember the AREA ! My father worked for the reading railroad and conrail from 47'to82 before retiring to Hanover pa! Was a signal maintainer out of race street tower next to reading terminal in Philly and ran trouble calls up to 40 miles away if need be...
I am now 69 and the blasting from Dyer's Quarry was a regular event. The rock then went through the crusher and loaded onto the rail cars. The quarry is over a hundred years old and still being worked, although about half the mountain is now gone. The cars sit along side the main line along with a couple locos, separated at the crossings.
Thank you! I had no idea you could "date" a piece of rail like that! Learn something new every day...well two things as I now can read the weight numbers on a car.
Never thought I would spend a lunchtime watching video about trains, but your videos are first class, your knowledge is both impressive and entertaining… your photography is first class and editing right on the money… thank you and kudos brah.
This is great footage! The first video i come across. Interesting to learn about American (freight) trains as i come from The Netherlands myself. You just earned yourself a new subscriber!
The location where the AMTX ballast train stopped to meet several trains reminds me of out Addis, LA yard. The main difference is that it was a yard and the trains we would meet there usually had work to do. Either setting out or picking up cars, and sometimes both. I remember waiting there for up to 5 hours to let 3 or 4 trains go by before we could continue our trip.
So far I seen the same number of the locomotives, I got NS 1153 in June, 1813 in March, 8178 in August, the Two Dash 9s in separate days on 127 and 126, and the Amtrak Ballast cars last year, beautiful video!
That Passer & Theurer equipment is a shoulder ballast cleaner. The conveyor on the end dumps waters into a car or to the far side of the drainage ditch. By the first cab is a rectangular tube at an angle heading up towards the boxcar end. That’s the inlet that lowers and gathers the dirty ballast from the outside of the ties and sifts out the dirt to relay the clean rock back down.
Just love trains, especially long trains. I am from Australia and this was an exceptional video showing how train traffic passes on the lines....new subscriber now
The machine that showed up is a Ballast Cleaner. It takes all Ballast even a couple of feet under the rail up, takes all mud and debris and then puts it back under and around the track. I believe tracks must be tamped afterwards.
That machine was called an undercutter. It has a chain digging apparatus. It is designed to cut under the track bed and reclaim rock from screenings. Basically a gravel pit on rails.
See these N&S containers pass below my neighborhood every day- an hour outside Roanoke yard- had never really thought about just how far they came. When I was a kid it was mostly coal, some box cars- I remember one in the early 80s loaded with autos. Now it is almost exclusively containers.
That was a really good video. Whenever you were in your car following the train, it reminded me of whenever I help my mother while she goes on her deliveries for her job and we hit an area where there are trains. I usually won’t get out of the car but I will roll down my window and if there is a train on the track taking off, I will record it with my phone. It’s not much, but it’s what I have. Unfortunately for me, where we’ve been passing through where there is track there is also some government buildings so that specific area in town has a quiet zone during the day but it’s still nice to record them.
The second sand trains (I think it was) ditch lights were off a bit, never seen them like that before. Very cool. Thank you for posting this. I subscribed.
