Any railfan drivers at the crossing were probably delighted to see and hear the long train crossing the diamond. That is a rare diamond location. There used to be a middle-of-the-street diamond in the Westport section of Baltimore many years ago. The double tracked mainline of the Western Maryland Railway coming out of Port Covington crossed a B&O industrial track in the middle of Kloman St. Movements on the B&O Kloman St. spur were controlled by WM-style block signals mounted on the street edge each side of the WM tracks. I rode WM excursion trains across the diamond but never caught any switching activities on the B&O spur. That whole area changed when the WM yard was torn up after being absorbed into CSX, the old B&O industrial track was removed, and the Baltimore Light Rail line running to Glen Burnie was built where Kloman St. used to be.
He's not allowed to stop blowing the horn until the head locomotive is clear of the last grade crossing. You can see there's one more street to cross right as he finishes up.
Jaw Tooth, as always you don't let us down, I've never seen a diamond like this in the roadway, AND dang he likes to hang on that horn. Very cool video.
MrJawtooth, if that sulfur train smelled that bad just rolling by, just imagine what the gals n guys that load that stuff go through. No I must say I haven't seen a diamond in the middle of the street, but how cool was that. Great video. I have smelled a hot asphalt train, that was bad enough.
Wow, That's unique! And the Amtrak cuts across like smooth butter lol! Gag a maggot had me cutting up with laughter! The last time I heard of that term was several years ago at my FORMER employer when my manager said it often Ha! Nice video! Thanks for sharing! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
The sound of those bogies hitting the diamond carries for miles. When I was a kid in East London you could hear wagons being shunted at Temple Mills marshalling yard for miles.(lot less traffic noise in those days) Love that noise. Nice one JT, thank you sir.
Its weird that they decided to add a railroad track diamond on a 4 lane highway, but i love it. Bravo! To this idea and to you Jaw Tooth for capturing this.
Been there several times, I recommend Carter's Barbeque north of the diamond to Canal Street and go east (turn right) Carter's Barbeque is on the right almost a half mile.
Hello, JT! Yet another great video, thanks! You're there in that store to get Fruity pebbles cereal, yet you're in the liquor aisle! Cereal does go better with alcohol rather than milk!!! 👌👌👌👍👍😁😁😁😂😂🤣🤣
And just exactly what type of “fruity pebbles” come in bottles at the liquor store? If you have enough of that “breakfast drink” you won’t see the tracks, the diamond, the road.....LOL! Great “Live Action” as always!!
You arrive at the best places to video trains Jaw Tooth! The Diamond Crossings are definitely a neat spectacle to trains. Awesome job yet again and on your next video give a shout out to "Shawn in Delmar Delaware " lol. I'm one of your BIGGEST FANS!
Awesome video in Florida Sunshine State outside Lakeland Florida near Tampa Florida CSX frieght train loud horn keep up the good work jaw tooth bless you new videos Florida
I work for UP (Chicago Service Unit ) as a conductor...i had to be a road conductor for a few days and i had to go to Clinton,Ia. How we know we're in Clinton? The soybean plant and corn processing plant. It smells like 52 butt cracks with the fan on.😂😂😂😂
Well Mr. Jaw here you are in 2020 nice sunny winter day and here I sit in Indiana Feb. 2021 waiting on 3 to 7 inches of snow tonight. Keep those trains running...
That's very interesting. I never realized until I saw this video that there was such a big phosphate industry in Florida. When I was a big, burly truck driver (well, not so burly!) I used to go to a Cargil Plant in Tampa (according to what I can find, it's now The Mosaic Company) and pick up loads of fertalizer-type bags and take it to Laredo, TX. It was a good, easy, long run (nice when you get paid by the mile). So I learned something today. I thought FL was just a sand bar until today. :) According to the reporting marks in Wikipedia, CPDX is Chevron. It doesn't list a SUJX - Greg in TN
*MONDAY MAY 25 2020 12:16 PM CDT* Wow Jaw Tooth!! The first train was a l-o-o-n-ng train, with just 2 locomotives pulling it! That is pretty impressive! You're a great guy! 😊 👍 ⚠ Stay safe out there folks, during this COVID-19 crisis, you to Jaw Tooth. 😷 Tony 59-year-old Air Force VET 🇺🇸✈
Smitty SF-3751 Well I opened the video and guess what, it's raining ( light ), You are blessed. Never saw a diamond like that before and I even chased trains in Turkey. Looks like you had a great trip, keep warm, it will be at least 72 degrees here in Marana, AZ.
Ooohh this is something else ! Thanks for filming 👍🎥👍 If I owned a towing company I would put my garage there There must be a lot of accidents there (i think) Who came up whith this structure Real Einstein lol 🎶🎶 I love the rhythm off the wheels, it's music🎶🎶 At 4:47 I heard something divergent ......it missed a beat!?! Somebody els noticed it? anybody has a clue what happens there?
I used to watch this guy called Millenium force in Florida. He has captured some interesting stuff too, especially street running freight trains in downtown Tampa !
Hello J T this was another amazing and awesome catch. I was wondering which r r maintain the crossing , also take care of the cross bucks and the signals, and is this a old L & N route or Seaboard route? thanks Guy :-)
There are phosphate trains that come from CSX that run on the BNSF sub in my area. Just got one a week or 2 ago. Kind of sad seeing the fallen flag hoppers rusting away, CNW, Rock Island, Milwaukee Road, Rio Grande, etc. Some of the CP potash trains have the older hoppers like the first train.
One thing I noticed, the crossing gate bell clanged away only when the gate was going down. In some places the bell clangs for the full duration of the gate being down.
My hometown, Griffith, IN, had 5 mains (2 tracks) crossing at one place, 10 tracks, in the 60s. Now they are down to 7. If you had to cross the crossing, you would always hit a train coming or going or both. As I remember there was at least 1 diamond in the road (but not now). Note slightly west of the "Erie Lackawanna Trail' running NW to SE is an abandoned right of way.
9:02 "But wait. There's MOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRREEEEEE!!!!" Me: "Bring it on!"
I will step it up and gooo! Wooo!!
@@JawTooth don't you mean step It Up and go son ( or wierd person i met last tuesday
Just amazing how your fine all this odd stuff ...... Great job again
I look at Google Maps to find places to film. Thanks for watching!
That was neat to see!! Good job 👍

Obviously this isn't a "no horn" zone! He was really leaning on it.
He's not allowed to stop blowing the horn until the head locomotive is clear of the last grade crossing. You can see there's one more street to cross right as he finishes up.
Jaw Tooth, as always you don't let us down, I've never seen a diamond like this in the roadway, AND dang he likes to hang on that horn.
Very cool video.
Thanks William!
How cool I've never seen a diamond in middle of the road like that. Very cool video Jawtooth! 👍👍👍
Its the only one that I know of
I've never seen a railway diamond period. Double cool!
@@JawTooth of course the drunk is in a liquor store
That is so cool! I've never seen anything like it before. That's a long, loud, slow train, and I loved every minute of it!
Nice and loud in the middle of the nite too I'll bet!!! lol
I love that you don't talk over the sound of the train as it goes over the diamond. Magical train sounds. Best stuff ever.
Now that is one interesting crossing! I also like how the two lines meet at an angle instead of direct on as a cross.
MrJawtooth, if that sulfur train smelled that bad just rolling by, just imagine what the gals n guys that load that stuff go through. No I must say I haven't seen a diamond in the middle of the street, but how cool was that. Great video. I have smelled a hot asphalt train, that was bad enough.

This is the coolest I've ever seen. I love this video. I could watch this all day long
The sound of those bogies hitting the diamond carries for miles. When I was a kid in East London you could hear wagons being shunted at Temple Mills marshalling yard for miles.(lot less traffic noise in those days) Love that noise.
Nice one JT, thank you sir.
I'm gonna moddle this in my train simulator!
Thats a cool idea! probably be the first one
Definitely one of the more unique crossings in America
Hey Jawtooth when it stinky Lapoo give em' Dudes some Distance Great Shots by the Way and That Diamond was Damn Awesome.. Ready for some more Videos..
Thanks,I love weathering covered hoppers.This is a great reference.
Its weird that they decided to add a railroad track diamond on a 4 lane highway, but i love it. Bravo! To this idea and to you Jaw Tooth for capturing this.
Even me as a railroader am impressed to see this. Nice catch jawtooth!!! Live action Whooo!!
Live Action!
You always seem to locate some of the most fascinating railway oddities. Truly a diamond IN the rough..GREAT work as usual sir.
Florida is an awesome place for train watching. I used to visit there and spent many days surfing Sebastian inlet and watching FEC trains.
I believe this video is between the weirdest and the coolest one.
Been there several times, I recommend Carter's Barbeque north of the diamond to Canal Street and go east (turn right) Carter's Barbeque is on the right almost a half mile.
I love the sound of those wheels doing the conga bongo over the diamond. I will set that as my new ring tone.
That first loco bounced up when going over the diamond.
I love the dimand of the railway crossing
Thats pretty cool never see that before and I been in Florida all my life awsome catch there
That was awesome with that diamond between the four lanes. And two trains to boot. Cool video Jawtooth. Thanks 👍👍👍❤️
Griffith, Ind had them literally in the pavement!!!! The EL crossed the GTW and EJE there.
Hello, JT! Yet another great video, thanks! You're there in that store to get Fruity pebbles cereal, yet you're in the liquor aisle! Cereal does go better with alcohol rather than milk!!! 👌👌👌👍👍😁😁😁😂😂🤣🤣
Your dogs are adorable 😊🙂
Thank you Stanley!
Excellent video, Jaw Tooth. Thank you for sharing!
And just exactly what type of “fruity pebbles” come in bottles at the liquor store?
If you have enough of that “breakfast drink” you won’t see the tracks, the diamond, the road.....LOL!
Great “Live Action” as always!!
Thanks for another great - and unusual - video. Ive never seen one of these before. And a big THANK YOU for this shot of Chessie and your other pup!
Jaw Tooth that was a crasy railroadcrossing in the middel of a Highway. Thumb ups.
Awesome seeing a diamond in the middle of the highway, great video 👍
Thank you Justin!
That diamond plays a great salsa beat.
Out of all jawtooth videos this is the most weirdest and coolest I have ever seen
I'd hate to be stuck waiting on the phosphate train needing the restroom :)
You arrive at the best places to video trains Jaw Tooth! The Diamond Crossings are definitely a neat spectacle to trains. Awesome job yet again and on your next video give a shout out to "Shawn in Delmar Delaware " lol. I'm one of your BIGGEST FANS!
That is one long train! Now one needs to come from the other way lol!
Never seen a phosphate or a sulfur train before very nice. Great job JT as always.
Just wanted to say thanks, I really enjoy watching your videos!
I appreciate that!
Awesome video in Florida Sunshine State outside Lakeland Florida near Tampa Florida CSX frieght train loud horn keep up the good work jaw tooth bless you new videos Florida
Just imagine if a train would suddenly derail on that diamond. That would be one hell of a mess.
Eh just push it back onto the tracks if it derailed specifically on the road parts of the track
Hmmm, indeed. Sure hope that doesn't happen in the future
A DIAMOND, between a four land highway. Wow. Great catch!!
Thank you!
A train trucks that hit the diamond is a good sounds too. Great catch
Thanks!
You definitely find the strangest stuff Tooth. 👍👍😁😁
I try!
@@JawTooth Dude you do a great job. I really like your videos. I love the small town crossings and the unique finds. 👍👍
The diamond there has rare Y pattern signals! Awesome!
Uuuggghhh those phosphate cars are all rust buckets good video
Jaw tooth always finds them classics railway places 😆 Well done 👍🏻
Wow a diamond in the middle of the road, awesome.
I don't think I have ever seen that before. Thanks for watching Celio!
@@JawTooth thanks for making awesome videos.
Wow - Jaw Tooth likes box wines • Me too • Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂
When I think of smelling bad, I think of Mead paper in Chillicothe, lol.
I work for UP (Chicago Service Unit ) as a conductor...i had to be a road conductor for a few days and i had to go to Clinton,Ia. How we know we're in Clinton? The soybean plant and corn processing plant. It smells like 52 butt cracks with the fan on.😂😂😂😂
Wow replacing that diamond would be a major project with it being in the road like that. Excellent video JT👍🏼😎
Thanks 👍
Well Mr. Jaw here you are in 2020 nice sunny winter day and here I sit in Indiana Feb. 2021 waiting on 3 to 7 inches of snow tonight. Keep those trains running...
Very nice! We will get that also and I will be in it
That's very interesting. I never realized until I saw this video that there was such a big phosphate industry in Florida. When I was a big, burly truck driver (well, not so burly!)

roads and tracks and gates going every which way, confusing, but wicked cool though. Great videoing !!
Certainly has some old vet cars on that first train. Noticed a couple had old Penn Central green, which would make them 40 years old probably older.
As if Florida couldn't get any weirder! Nice video!
I wonder how many vehicles have got stuck in that diamond when they were not looking at where they were going. It's certainly a cool video.
That's very odd crossing Jaw Tooth✝,I've never seen one like this one.
Who needs bells when you got this diamond noise.
would love you to have gotten closer to the diamond when the first train passed by
Getting closer to the right aisle. 🍺 🍻 🍺. But wait there's more, great video. Ty
More to come!
@@JawTooth 🙃😆
This is my home county. I have so many memories crossing through this intersection when I was growing up.
Awesome! I visit Mulberry and the surrounding areas every winter
Jaw Tooth my grandma lived in Bradley Junction right down the highway in bone valley. I need to visit one day.
Huh! I love that heavy-duty clickity clack right there in the middle of the highway.interesting.
WOW imagine driving across the diamond
Those rail cars look beat , sweaty .
That crossing is so complex, the gates didn't know if they were coming or going, LOL.
Wow that is so cool a diamond railroad crossing with tracks connected to each other amazing thumbs up👍
It has to be rare being in the middle of a busy highway
@@JawTooth Kudos to that man you make the best videos ever
Very Nice !!!!
*MONDAY MAY 25 2020 12:16 PM CDT*
Wow Jaw Tooth!! The first train was a l-o-o-n-ng train, with just 2 locomotives pulling it! That is pretty impressive!
You're a great guy! 😊

very interesting railroad crossing
If you hadn't told us you were in Florida your shirt would give it away. Great video as always sir.
Once again, Jawtooth adds to his miscellany of street running trains with a diamond in the median.
Sounds great too! Like some type of a new beat...with the train cars going over the rail intersection!

Well I opened the video and guess what, it's raining ( light ), You are blessed. Never saw a diamond like that before and I even chased trains in Turkey. Looks like you had a great trip, keep warm, it will be at least 72 degrees here in Marana, AZ.
I was trying to get a friend of mine to go to Arizona to see the Cincinnati Reds playing spring training but so far they are only 1 and 3
Ha Brian,yes those are cute dogs.
That's my first time seeing that kind of track, great video
Awesome situation.very nice.👌
My dad grew up about 15 miles east of there in Bartow FL. Nice catch!
I'm sure you had a great time in Florida! Glad you did!
Does are some funky looking cars
Good thing that second train was a short one. Being a stinky one. Lol
There you go again, poaching on Distant Signal's turf.
Just kidding... Nice vid!
Thanks!
Cool csx train
Now this is a very rare crossing
I want to go back there in January and film it again
Ooohh this is something else ! Thanks for filming 👍🎥👍
If I owned a towing company I would put my garage there
There must be a lot of accidents there (i think)
Who came up whith this structure
Real Einstein lol
🎶🎶 I love the rhythm off the wheels, it's music🎶🎶
At 4:47 I heard something divergent ......it missed a beat!?!
Somebody els noticed it? anybody has a clue what happens there?
If you want a lot of wrecker business, check out the 11Foot8 videos from North Carolina. It's unbelievable.
@@MeigsCountyRR Thanks for the tip👍
I couldn't believe it . . .
The one after the other🙈
Unbelievable
It's dinertime: sardines out off a can -lol-
I used to watch this guy called Millenium force in Florida. He has captured some interesting stuff too, especially street running freight trains in downtown Tampa !
He is in this video at the end
@@JawTooth I see it now :). Thanks.
Hello J T this was another amazing and awesome catch. I was wondering which r r maintain the crossing , also take care of the cross bucks and the signals, and is this a old L & N route or Seaboard route? thanks Guy :-)
Hey Brian, we need to talk one day with Alan. I’m sure we would get along really well mostly cause we’re both into trains. Happy training!
There are phosphate trains that come from CSX that run on the BNSF sub in my area. Just got one a week or 2 ago. Kind of sad seeing the fallen flag hoppers rusting away, CNW, Rock Island, Milwaukee Road, Rio Grande, etc. Some of the CP potash trains have the older hoppers like the first train.
The cars is very long,unlike in Indonesia with a maximum length of only 60 freight cars.Always enjoy your videos🖐️
that is something else !
One thing I noticed, the crossing gate bell clanged away only when the gate was going down. In some places the bell clangs for the full duration of the gate being down.
That’s pretty common on CSX and Norfolk southern.
Nice rhythm,I'm a drummer and it keeps better time than I do.😁
Good Stuff JT !
