- In this video we take you on a door job that’s something we do quite often, we normally fix the door but in this case the door had fallen off and they put it inside the car.
Here they are The official East Terminal Railway tee shirts! railroadmerch....
East terminal railroad thanks for taking the time to teach us a little about the railroad industry. I find it very interesting.
me too.....
The 44-ton locomotive built by several builders was the result of a labor agreement between the Brotherhoods and the Railroads. The FRA was not involved. I really like the work you are doing on the GE 80-tonner. The Western Railway Museum has three 44-tonners. Several other traction museums have 25-tonners also built by GE with one Diesel and one motor.
For what you guys did, I seriously can't believe that the company couldn't have done exactly what you did - but I guess its more efficient to have someone come and do it, so their guys keep working, and hey - that keeps you guys employed!
Often, the railroads and leasing companies are far from considered "efficient" ..
Thanks for taking us along.
THANK YOU...for sharing. Watched and enjoyed.
Great job, you guys thought it thru before you did any moving it. Safety was a primary consideration 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for another visit, but this one per week is killin' me! I want more more more, I want merch., etc. etc. etc. [slap slap] Ah...I feel much better now! How about..... a complete line tour: beginning to end (or as far as is cleared). Wouldn't take too long to make and I know there are lots of us who would like to see the whole line! Any way, I shall retire and await more video goodness!
Enjoyed that! You guys are way ahead in train knowledge, but it sure is fun learning! Thanks!
That was fascinating, thank you for bringing this to the people.
That TP56 makes me think of locomotive Conrail 0. Even after Conrail went away they didn't have the heart to renumber and repaint it. It's still zero today.
Hope to see more of these repair videos in the future. Very cool
Found this video randomly and I just have to say I enjoyed it. Much respect to you and your partner. Honest work.
Thanks for the mention! Happy to help.
Well done gents! Blessings
Informative. Gives insight into another aspect of railroading. Great video. Thanks for sharing! May God bless in all your endeavors
It would be a pleasure to meet a guy like you. Thanks for another great video.
This is a comment on some thing you said last video since I got a little behind. Get a battery operated saws all and a bunch of wood blades they will cut through those 4 inch trees like butter and the blades will last a lot longer and also be much safer you can even run those blades through the dirt to get around the backside and they’ll still be good. I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t even sink into the ballast and move the rocks out of the way when you’re cutting up close to the ties
They do make pruning blades, which don't clog as much as the wood blades. This results in a faster cut. I use one more and more, my chainsaw doesn't comes out unless it's 6+ inches or I have a lot to cut.
I see you follow the old adage, "Work smarter, not harder." Nice job.
Learning a lot from these videos. Train blood running in your veins. Love it.
Great work guys!
Neat little video fellas. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, great job!
I enjoy your videos. Can't wait to see your rails in use. Best wishes!
Made for a great informative video bro so thanks for taking us along. Safe travels
Thanks for taking us along on your job today! Would've been awesome to see a loco take the car away after you finished.
I see in the comments section there are people who only care about what other people are doing and are quick to point out what is 'wrong'; very similar to how my 82 year-old mother behaves...lol. Surprised none of them also told you guys to get off their lawn...
very agreeable!! added my 2 cents to your thought on a few comments here.
Don't know if you interested in what looks like a not running but maybe all there 44 ton Davenport in storage at Madison City Port Authority yard in Indiana. Might be too much to take on.
If only people would do things the right way.
Fascinating stuff! Thanks for the insider viewpoint.
Enjoyed this video as always. I knew some folks were going to call you out for reading and driving. What do you think we all did before GPS? We held a map and we drove. Thanks again for answering viewer questions
It pays to have knowledge in rigging for what you do. That looked to me to be the best you could do with it. It might not survive being humped but no way to control that.
Good evening from St John, Parish, LA 5 Feb 21.
good evening from Bellows Falls, Vermont........some people confuse the two of us!
William Morse I can understand that. Even though we live on opposite sides of the country.
@@billmorris2613 yours is probably warmer now...
William Morse We have been in the low 50s all day with a few rain showers. Some rain again tomorrow but it will be getting into the low to mid 60s.
@@billmorris2613 there's always a trade-off with the weather... you seem familiar with the SW8.... I rode on GP9s as a kid courtesy kind engineers and a more relaxed society..... miss those days, Bill
Name that tune: Don Williams "Lord I Hope This Day Is Good"!
I loved his song "I believe in you", classic!!
your video quality is getting better and better. I would love more job videos like this. keep them coming please
Thank you! Will do!
Great job guys! What a task getting that door moved into position with just hand tools! Very impressive 👍
Interesting video. Glad to see you guys pulling it together. Maybe open a small repair facility on your terminal line off one of the switches.
that is what his company does for a living.
Thank you for sharing this part of what you do. Not something I ever thought of as a job or an issue, but it’s obviously something that would fail on site and need a tech to rectify on site. I’m sure others agree but feel free to share more of these clips from time to time.
Hi guys. That was really interesting. Like seeing more of that as it’s never been shown on RUclips as far as I can remember 🤔 Like the sound of you getting a switcher locomotive for your storage line or as we say in the U.K. a shunter lol 😂 Take care cheers Stevie 😎🏴
Great video ,good luck with your dinosaur hunt ! for a used loco !!!!
Great video I have an accounting /history question First the numbers How much do you charge for a repair? Is it including travel time and expenses. Who pays and how long do they take to process your invoice? My history question is when did you start your rail business and what did you start with? You mentioned purchasing locomotives and leasing them and your retail and repair activities. These are business questions and I would completely agree if you don’t want to answer Thanks Jeff
I could tell what part of Ohio you were going to watching the scenery of the road sides. I was going to say depending on how much work is involved there was a center cab unit down on the Madison County RR at the Jefferson Proving Grounds in one of Jaw Tooth's last videos he did. Might be worth a look, but might be a bit more work than your wanting.
Awesome job thanks for sharing the video
The Big Buford is my favorite fast food burger.
Job well done.
Ralleys for lunch? I want a Big Buford and a large fry and hot coffee.
Ooooo, you got a "cheater" knob on your steering ...... cool! 👍
way back when it used to be called a suicide knob.
@@loudsubwoofer8492 There have been many names for them! 👍
@@terrywheelock9458 i wasn't criticizing, i was adding my two cents.
@@loudsubwoofer8492 Yep, no problem! 👍
Nice work Men!
Oh! I forgot to say in the last video: I like the intro animation! You guys are doing great!
Great work as always
Nice work, Pappy!
Watching whilst in a McDonalds drive thru taking forever , two birds one stone
*Make sure you ask for ketchup again at the window, they always forget. LOL*
Yes that is correct
They changed those regs every few years
The fra makes policy now
This was an awesome job Think you for the knowledge
Excellent video I enjoyed watching it 👍😀😀🇬🇧🚂
“ATW” - Atlantic and Western rolling stock
You guys are great. Always doing the right thing! I love your Attitude to everything. About that poor boxcar let me say this as plain as possible. I HATE GRAFFITI!!!!!!
Nice Work!
On to another job called....LUNCH. You are right about the 44 tonners, they were ment to get around having a fireman. The rule came around because of the transition to diesel and the fact firemen were no longer needed. This is also the reason for 'B' units, which did have controls and could be self moved/used w/o a fireman.
Found 2 hi rail dump trucks for sale, $6500 and $8500. Had some problems. you should be able to find them on western MA craigslist. I tried sending the link but my comment disappeared.
I love how many people on this comment section are being the "reading while driving / steering wheel knob police". Cut Brian some slack guys. He knows its wrong, as we all do....
Great production as always boys! 👏
Yep, had to stop the video 3 minutes in. I live in a place where distracted driving is commonplace and absolutely drives me crazy. Love the channel, love the knowledge but I just can't watch someone knowingly do something so stupid. I have seen lives ended and families torn apart due to crap like this.
"He knows it's wrong" -- if he knew it was wrong, and had no need to do it, he wouldn't do it.
Enjoy going to the job sites!
70 toners. Modesto Empire Traction Co , Modesto California had a whole fleet of 70 tonners
Those dump trucks are listed as dump crane trucks. No mention of rail, but they have the rail wheels on them.
I wondered if you all were in Ohio and in the first 2 min I noticed the mansion outside of New Albany cool to see this happening semi-local to me in Newark wish you all the best and looking forward to the next vid also if you ever need help let me know!!
One of those Auto Cranes for the 1ton would sure be handy for a situation like that. Sometimes they go cheap at the equipment auctions especially if they need minor repairs. Great job getting the door secured with just the basics can’t wait till the next video, stay safe. 👍
Interesting to see how the USA railways functions compared to the United Kingdom railway ..................... signed a railway electrification Engineer (note I do not drive trains :) )
great safety advertisement reading while driving!!!
so,he's not perfect............................... this person lets us see what he does for a living- he could just as easily NOT do any of this, and so many are picking on his faults!!! i would not be surprised if he shut his channel down and removed everything from youtube!!
@@rearspeaker6364 Nobody's asking him to be perfect or expecting him to be perfect.
@@beeble2003 that is exactly my point. the last perfect person left this earth 1,989 years ago, so none of us are perfect.
@@rearspeaker6364 Your "point" is to dismiss any criticism by saying that nobody's perfect. Sorry, but that doesn't wash. Nobody's perfect but, still, most people don't do ridiculously dangerous things like driving at highway speeds while not paying attention to the road. "Nobody's perfect" is a response to people criticizing small mistakes, not to people calling out egregious behaviour.
@@beeble2003 OKAY, LETS KILL EVERYONE THAT MAKES A MISTAKE!!!
I love your videos. Keep up the great work!
That was really great. You guys do work. You know for a smaller good switcher. I would recommend a EMD SW 1100. I don’t know what your price range is though. A SW 1500 is a terrific switcher but probably out of the price range. Or even a jeep (what they call aGP7) a 4 axle 4 traction motors. Anyway food for thought.
texting and driving...!!! very irresponsible. And yes, reading notes is the same as reading texts from your phone. BTW, I like your channel.
I’ve been waiting for this!
Yup except it was just the firemen and the engineer, not the conducter... its because the brother hood the locomotive firemen was going to sew the railroads for it so they proposed anything over 45 tons needed a full crew thinking they wouldn't be able to produce a locomotive of that weight but starting with Whitcomb then ending with GE they produced a lot of them
Nobody thought a locomotive under 45 tons was impossible lol
@@ironmatic1 right ( ; bet they crapped them selves when they saw the locomotive
FEC got around that and had to deal with intentional sabotage from union thugs..... look ma, no caboose....
Very interesting how you fix the door?
Great point on the downtime of the car
Two plus months of travel back to repair shop. Is it worth your time to contact lease company and offer to repair in place?
Great video thx for taking us along.
What about an SW-8 switcher. They have 800 horse power and parts are still available for them. We have one that use to be an Amtrak locomotive.
You guys should also use a portable derail(s) or lock the switch(es) out in addition to blue flags.
I found this to be a very interesting video as you Don't ever see how these things get dealt with.
I think this is the ideal content because most of us never get to see this stuff and it's quite interesting. I would have just brought the plasma cutter and and cut it in half and called it a day....
Well you can go back a few videos and check out one of our reasons why we I have to be more cautious with open flame In the video we accidentally lit the contents of a box car on fire
sure, then the shipper gets backcharged for the destroyed door,who then backcharges the one who cut the door in half.
Nice, very interesting
Going by the reporting marks (ATW), that boxcar is owned by Atlantic & Western Railway, which is a Genesse&Wyoming road based in Sanford, NC.
G&W owns a lot of railroad companies...Didn't know they owned ATW, thou...
@@arthurpasseri1840 It doesn't look like ATW has any car repair facilities, but I'm sure that G&W has shops somewhere... www.gwrr.com/railroads/north_america/atlantic_western_railroad#m_tab-one-panel
why couldn't graham ask the questions while you was driving then you could have kept your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel
reminds me of when I had to study flash cards before going to class back in my college days (1 hr drive each way)... I wouldn't even dream of trying that today, especially with my cheap reading glasses.
Wouldn't you love to see that door come flying out of the car, on a curve, at 90 MPH, like a frisbee ?
Nice job
Thanks for reading out my comment!
You guys should film more of your jobs.. Interesting stuff
Run remote control switchers like Alco S-2s or equivalent
What about a 1200 or 1500 switcher ? I would love to see one of the old Alcos gathering dust in Scotia get back on the tracks.
I love your suicide knob on your steering wheel, that is OLD SCHOOL! Right on my brother!
Coffee, driving, reading your notes, multi task my brother, u r so cool !
i give it one, maybe two, trips over a (UP) hump. It will either be sticking out the side again or resting against the end bulkhead. Putting a "Do Not Hump" sign on it would do little to preventing it. But, what can you do?
I'm Very Impressed.I hope you got paid Top Dollar.Do you have Video of the Locomotive being moved 2 miles on the Truck?The one you used a couple of Cranes to Crib it?Thanks for the Video.Your Channel and the Work you do is Addicting.
Just curious ball park ... how much will they pay for that job?
You gentlemen need to have more cribbing and lumber to secure the load. The safety on this was...... rough.
I saw an add for a 45-ton GE Switcher down in Greenville, SC The company was MP&ES...don't know what they are asking for it
Keep your eyes on the road at all times and keep hold of the steering wheel, save lives. In our country you would be prosecuted
I know you guys are interested in centre cab switcher/shunting locomotives, so what do think about GE's 1970s SL series (types 65-144)?
Great work, guys! Keep it up.
Did you work at Buckeye Metal Works Lockbourne ,Ohio , you mentioned something about it . If so what were you assembler , Wheelabrator operator ,grinder , welder, ovens. I was a Iron worker, sad what we have done to that Industry in USA, GOD Bless AMERICA.
I see you got off at the new cherry valley road exit, I assume that job was in Newark
A TP56 would be the perfect locomotive for you guys
I'm sure they have a quarter million dollars to throw at one
@@ironmatic1 agreed! don't see him in a 2021 F250 either!
Any idea on the Age of this Box Car. Box Cars are removed from Service by Law after 40-45 years.
I believe 50 years is the limit for interchange service.
I saw that boxcar, & noticed it's missing door, I did not have enough time to see the door because trains in my area usually do 30 on the jets (intermodal), and 25 for everything else.
Man let hang out with you I'll run the camera ...
Really great video not trying to be mean but maybe graham could read the comments when driving sorry its just someone got hit and killed directly in front of my house last night i had to watch them take the body away and everything please just be careful
