Whoa! lol 😂 Looks like a bone yard, they probably save them for parts and stuff, to keep the better ones running. Pretty cool to see so many together like that though.
Yeah that’s why I filmed it the trains technically aren’t abandoned just retired but it was cool seeing them before their stripped for parts that will be used on newer models

Actually looks like a rebuild yard, probably NRE. If this was a scrap operation they would be gone already, doesn't take long to actually cut up a loco. NRE is well known for simply stock piling locomotives and leaving them like this until they have a rebuild for them, or if that location is closed they do scrap them.
@@thomashulse241 no they’re just retired engines a company owns them they’re brought there scrapped for parts then left on the side tracks next to it to rot
#1 - Those are NOT TRAINS, they are locomotives. #2 if you were so concerned you would learn more about these machines. #3, if it was so impressive, why don't you close cabinets and doors and protect what is left. You seem to feel it is a shame they are abandoned to just rot. Do your part to protect them from future damage.
Dude, your taking it a bit far. I enjoy railroad preservation and have always liked trains. But closing the battery box and engine bay doors is not going to make a huge difference in the condition of these locomotives. Also many of the locos I spotted here have many running examples. And don't make fun of the guy for calling them trains, I guarantee at some point in your life that's what you called these. Not everyone that finds "trains" neat is a ultra level railfan.
@@GreatNW Hi, Read your reply and rebuttal. Closing battery boxes will not undo the damage that has occurred. That is fact. But it will minimize more damage by weather, so will closing cab windows, doors and access door to the engines. If you have time to walk through them you can take the moment to close things up as you go along. Who knows who owns these engines. Who knows why they are there but some of them are likely operational and some preservation group might just like to negotiate for one or more of them. It is obvious that this fellow knows little about these engines. He can not identify the difference in engines, generators, and compressors. He doesn't have a glimmer about what the controls are and what they do. He doesn't know what a brake stand is. Regardless, he is awed by what he sees. He feels the tragedy of what that place represents and he could help by closing doors for far more than battery boxes. Apparently you missed the meaning of my comment.
@@organbuilder272the guy was trying to not draw attention to himself as he said there was activity nearby,should he be draping tarps over the exposed equipment also? The owners of the equipment aren’t in a big rush to keep anything dry,they have plenty of pieces and parts around The chances of any of these units being reused is lower than zero
Wow, like so cool n stuff... Honestly, go back to school and learn English, then return to posting videos. Content? Excellent. Narration? Near Impossible to endure. Sorry bro, don't mean to harsh your mellow but how many "wows"and "I don't know what this is but it's cool" can we take.. Apologies in advance on dissing your narration , your video work is really good.
Had to bail at the 50th ‘cool’…
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
That bell at 6:01 is magnificent.
I noticed not a single multi-chime air horn was to be found in that whole yard.

Somehow I don’t think that these locomotives are ever going to run again. They are likely so far gone that scrapping is a forgone conclusion.
@@armandoperez7967 they’re being scrapped for parts to be put on new locomotives
Dang,it's a shame these couldn't be rebuilt. If I was rich it always can be done with time too.
@@billmerkle2677 they’re using these to build new models
I would like to see the inspection logs, looks like there's a few left behind especially the DM&IR locos #317.
Those look like they are stored for parts stripping to keep other models like them still working
@@kman-mi7su they are used for scrap

@@GreatNW good to know
Nice video, likes from me
Yay more Andy!
Where's this at
WAY too enamored by used junk. Seemed to know nothing other than wow......coooool.......wow
@@haroldreardon8070 thank you for the feed back I will make sure to say more things in future videos
Bruh, but trains, you know, walking into a cab has a way of filling you with awe. especially when you have not seen the real thing. Like a lot of us.
Those trains have been decommissioned they're waiting to get scrapped when they could take him to the nether processing yard it can process that I'm😊
Where is this at
McDonald, Ohio. There is another storage site nearby. Lots of scrapyards in the area.
Is this a storage for a museum or something? The veriety of units is unusual for even a scrapping operation.
@@thomashulse241 no they’re just retired engines a company owns them they’re brought there scrapped for parts then left on the side tracks next to it to rot
Interesting video. Too bad filler words are over used . Words such as "like".
What number is that Amtrak F40PH?
Looks like 344 to me.
Hi kingstone
Silent sentinels
I bet a few of those can still run
@@loganbloom6191 they probably can but they’re all retired and gonna soon be going to the scrap yard next store
where is this
McDonald, Ohio. Fairly easy to find on Google Maps. There is another storage yard nearby along with lots of scrapyards.
plz give me details ,i want buy this junks for scrap metal
