It is a shame someone didn't step in to save that building. I'd think it could have been turned into some great apartments. Nice video.😊 Thanks for sharing..
It was literally falling apart. It would have needed to be turned into apartments years ago, before it was literally falling down. Also, Williamsburg is a town of 2600, 30 miles from Cincinnati -- not clear there's much need for apartments there.
Hey Jaw Tooth, Nobody likes to see a derailment but it happens sometimes and not an expert on them but they have been happening as of late but just pray that that no one gets hurt. But have a great time watching the trains crossing and moving on down the tracks and have fun. 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
Very informative as always. Great to see the tracks replaced and back in service, hopefully this didn’t set the CCET back to much and they can recover from this. Boy those EMDs sounded great, older power still rocks. And impatient people do stupid things. Awesome job JT.
Great information video . Nice to see the new track. Hopefully, the cost of replacement won't cripple the CCE. They still need to get those GEs working on rock duty.
The "throb" of those second-generation B-B EMD's is something to behold..."poetry in motion". Thank you for taking a moment to pay tribute to that fallen brick building in Williamsburg. The fact that it once "connected" to the structure across the street is amazing...a "thing of beauty".👍👍
Great video and catch and footage Jaw Tooth hopefully the CET won't have anymore derailments and at least they got the rails and ties replaced with some fresh and new ones but at least they haven't had as many derailments that Norfolk Southern has had and Ohio Central had one this year up in trinway Ohio not far from Dresden Ohio
Thank you for following up on the derailment on the Cincinnati Eastern Railroad. The subcontractor did a wonderful job of rebuilding the tracks at the derailment. I wonder how long it will take to clean up the rock hoppers that are still on the ground at the derailment site. The two GP15-1s were working hard in Williams, Ohio to pull the first portion of the train that stalled on Williamsburg Hill. The engines had no problem pulling the last four loaded rock hoppers once it picked them up. I noticed that the company that was demolishing the building in Williams, Ohio was also recycling as many of the bricks that were not broken. They had several pallets of recycled bricks done already.
Good catch’s. Thanks for the derailment update. I filmed this morning in Lebanon and caught the first train out for this year. GP-30 pulling passenger cars.
Really neat video! So many great shots! One that stands out is the locomotives at the Mt. Orab crossing with the old VW bus next to it. Loved the old signal still standing like a sentinel. And the CE locomotives always look great!
It's just crazy to think what happens when something breaks like that Brian. So happy they was able to fix it tho and make it work again. Thanks for sharing this my friend.
Good to see the track repaired. It must have been a big setback for CCET. I hope it won't upset their efforts too much as a lot of work has gone into getting new customers and things were really starting to take off for them. That's always a problem on the tracks, you never know when something will get itself off the road! They've been running some pretty big loads over the line lately and that soon finds out any defects in the road. Let's hope it will be a long time before there's any other problems.
It won't affect their operations. They still have huge plans for growth and new customers. In the next couple of years I think you are going to see a very busy railroad. Just think in 2025 Purina will be shipping massive loads of grain
That statement represents the real problem with railroads. There many miles of tracks that have wooden rail ties that are old as two (2) scores. It is also effective on rapid transit systems, too. The rapid transit system owners are expected to maintain their tracks, signal systems, tunnels, structures and stations a little more than freight railroads. I hope this problem will not happen to concrete slippers, even though many are outdoors, being exposed to weathering.
Was the responsibility for fixing this shared between Cincinnati Eastern Railroad and Norfolk & Southern? Curious to know how that works on leased lines.
Great video JT. My town has seen a lot of derailments over the years. Most within a 4 or 5 block area. The last one a couple of years ago, you stood right beside where it happened on an earlier presentation...
Great documentation as always, JT! Looks like thaty've got that site lined out pretty well so far. I could use a few dump truck loads of that huge rock! lol. Keep those videos coming, son!
Thanks for the update on the derailment. I hope it's a long while before the CCET seen another one like that. It's a shame they had to tear that building down. That was a great shot with the trains going past it. Great video.
They sure can put tracks together pretty quick... we just had a train derailment a couple weeks ago in north eastern Maine, very remote area, with Canadian Pacific RR, tracks washed out and they couldn't stop in time, thankfully the crew was okay, just banged up some. I think it was three locomotives. Awesome live action video !! 👍👍👍👍
I am glad that the derailment didn't hurt or kill anyone. RJ Cormen knows their stuff and don't mess around. If I owned a railroad and had a derailment, RJ Cormen would be the first one I call. Great Jaw Tooth. Robert
Great video Jawtooth. What luck huh, stalling out on the grade. Sometimes there’s days like that though. That was good on the update on that derailment. Thanks 👍❤️
Thanks for the update JT... was hoping to get to see some of the clean up and repair to the track... it's nice to see the line back up and running again
"Wait there's more" That's a great slogan for your channel. When you say, wait there/s more, stop there don't say anything else. Leave it at that. Super introduction to more trains !...
Glad to see the track repaired. Wonder if they'll keep a closer eye on the rest of their rail now?? Maintenance is always cheaper than repair and recovery. Great video JT! 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💯👍🇺🇸
I would think that Eastern Eastern management would know they need a third third engine to climb that hill when they are pulling a rock string up the hill.😊
They're unlikely to be stupid. They'd normally use the SD40-2 and one of the GP15-1s -- maybe the SD40-2's under repair. Or maybe they just rostered the two GP15-1s, knowing that they'd probably have to double the hill. There's no harm in having to split the train.
A Norfolk Southern coal train headed for the Montour Power Plant once derailed in my community and spilled at least a couple tons of coal. The overturned coal hoppers were scrapped on site while the coal hoppers that didn’t overturn were decoupled and pulled ahead of the derailment. There was no DPU.
Nope. They're GP15-1s, not tunnel motors, and they were originally built for MoPac, as far as I recall. In any case, SP never had any GP15-1s. If those locomotives _were_ tunnel motors, they'd have gone up the hill in one shot, at speed: SD40s/SD45s are considerably more powerful locomotives, with considerably more tractive effort.
2 questions. That road at the derailment site is very narrow. I noticed the trucks on the engines are almost as long as the road is wide. Is that a public road or private? Where the building is torn down. The other building that is still standing. Is that being used or will that be torn down? Good video!! Lots of "live action" on the CE!! 👍😁🇺🇲
Great video JT. Thanks for keeping us up to date about the repairs after that derailment, real interesting to see. Glad to see CCET is able to get back to running the rails. Love your little personal local insights as well.
Great video Brian If they had a bit more speed might be able to make it up grade , they are going so slow , that new track reminds me of the Shoo fly !!
In Santa Rosa CA we had a shoe 👞 factory that crossed f street. On the east side was where they made the shoe's cross f street on a walk way and a conveyor belt sending the finished shoe's to the west side where the shoe's were warehoused until delivery took place. Another awesome video .Denis from Santa Rosa CA.
You don't need a DPU on a 20-car train. Probably the SD40-2 is being worked on, or maybe they just decided to roster the two GP15-1s, knowing that they'd probably have to double the hill. There's no rule that says you can't split the train.

Awesome job JT - really appreciate the followup on the derailment. They did an excellent job on the repair/replacement! Being ignorant of RR operations, did the CCET train stall because of the weight of the train? Were the locos losing traction or just didn't have the oomph get up the hill?

@@jameschristiansson3137 I hope YT leaves this for you. This gentleman's name is Dave and he is a track maintenance man on a road run by a coal mine. His channel is "ccrx 6700 That's Railroadin!" He shows us a LOT of the stuff that JT, WWoT and others aren't able to, what goes on behind the scenes including WHY and HOW railroad equipment can fail. He also helps us understand that railroad TRACK is itself a complex device with lots of moving parts, how it get maintained and how it gets repaired. If you love EMD power like I do, this road is home to 2 SD38-2 and an SD40-2.
I'm really surprised that someone (whoever makes the call) thought the two Geeps would pull all that weight up the grade. To see coal heaped in a 100 ton hopper is normal, but when you see rock heaped above the sides, that's probably over capacity. And I'd be interested in knowing what happens to the hoppers involved in the derailment. Do they get hauled back to the yard for repairs and put back in service, or scrapped? Thanks for another interesting episode, JT. Keep up the good work and I'll keep tuning in.

Great to see the Red moving again
Awesome catches of the rock train JT. 😇👌👍
Wow It’s amazing how big the cars look like when flipped on the side
Each of those gravel cars equals roughly 4 to 5 semi dump trucks. At 25 ton a truck.
Any idea what caused the derailment???
Love your videos, Mike
Could have been something on the track or took a curve too fast it’s a number of things
Could anyone just walk up to those cars and uncouple them individually, so it would be easier for maintenance crews to haul them away?
That’s us true
Merci beaucoup pour cette très belle vidéo ! ✨✨👍🙏
That was very interesting building. Good thing that you got videos of it before the demolition.
I can't picture the town without that building. I wonder what they will do with the huge lot
