- Horseshoe Curve, Pennsylvania Trains! Amtrak & Big Coal Train With DPU Goes Around The Curve! Trains & Railroad Maintenance Of Way Equipment Disappear Into The Tunnel And Appear Out Of The Tunnel At Gallitzin, Pennsylvania! Norfolk Southern Railway operates this line between Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It is their primary east west line and it is an old Pennsylvania Railroad line. It was also Conrail before NS owned it. The primary railroad radio frequency is 160.875 which was recently changed from 160.800.
This is another old video that I never posted. I filmed this in 2018 with Millenniumforce and Revello608 on a Sunday and Monday. All kinds of cool trains in this video including Amtrak and some interesting railroad maintenance of way equipment. Does anyone know anything about the big Loram yellow piece of equipment that went into the tunnel?
Filmed in 1080p with 30fps on Sunday and Monday, June 17 & 18, 2018AD
Thanks for watching! If you have time, please watch another video of mine to help keep my channel going. Every view helps support my channel. Viewing time helps pay for gas, motels, rental cars etc. I have a list of places that I plan on filming so watch another video of mine if you have the time.

Thanks for watching!
Change of scenery for the moment I like it good catches
Great video
Won't see warm weather for another four months
Great footage of the Horseshoe curve. The tunnel was cool too. You got a lot of horn salutes! Great video!
Great video Brian!
Good place to see them really pulling hard
Horseshoe curve and surrounding areas are one of the best places to railfan. Great shots from that bridge in gallitzin.
Nice one JT.
Very nice
The warmth. The sun. The trains. Only 90 some days until the start of spring
A summer video in the middle of winter, luv it!
Glad you like it!
Hope you had a great Christmas
Horseshoe Curve is a three-track railroad curve on Norfolk Southern Railway's Pittsburgh Line in Blair County, Pennsylvania. The curve is about 2,375 feet (700 m) long and 1,300 feet (400 m) in diameter. Completed in 1854 by the Pennsylvania Railroad as a way to reduce the westbound grade to the summit of the Allegheny Mountains, it replaced the time-consuming Allegheny Portage Railroad: the only other route across the mountains. The curve was later owned and used by three Pennsylvania Railroad successors: Penn Central, Conrail and Norfolk Southern.
Excellent analysis.
@@Inferno-hn3zx correct
I have the video game 🎮
@@Inferno-hn3zx If you search around you should be able to find some film footage from the 1930s or 40s when it had 3 or 4 active tracks.
The length of the trains
Is incredible
Great Catches!
The famous wide 180 degree Horseshoe Curve is a remarkable site for filming!
Awesome video! Train 🚂 salute! That old tunnel almost looked like a model railroad at times!!! Cool! Love the Horseshoe curve one day!!!!
Good morning 🌞 Jaw Tooth looks nice and warm!! Another few months? Thank You Happy New Year!! Great maintenance of way equipment!! Neat!
One of my bucket list locations. Great video. Love the history of horseshoe. A drone would have been really cool here.
Hi TJ thank you so much for showing the trains with the cabooses at the end of the trains ❤
Awesome train catches!!
Hope to see u and millenniumforce film again. Nice work, I've always thought the horseshoe curve was pretty cool
Such a great place to railfan - Juanita shops, curve, Gallitzin tunnels and Cresson. Can’t go wrong visiting this area. Great work JT
railfan'TASTIC...
GOTTA LOVE HSC...
THANK YOU
nice video
Good Morning Jaw Tooth.
Thanks for the video. Another great video to view. See you on the next. 😊
Thank you for finding this video that you took in 2018 and uploaded to your RUclips channel! The action at the Gallitzin Tunnel and Horseshoe Curve was fascinating to watch.
Good Morning JT. Great video as always buddy!
Great vid son!!
that was filmed on my birthday.
Nice horn salutes! Nice trains too. Thank you for the videos.
Yes awesome live action.
Amazing videos Jaw Tooth keep up the good work
Glad you like them!
Great to see Horseshoe Curve from a different angle to the Railfan camera. Excellent work
Great video of the horseshoe curve and Gallitzin tunnel.I'm from.southeastern Pa and plan on visiting the horseshoe curve and Gallitzin tunnel in the future.Thanks for the Pennsylvania videos.
A lot of TOFC cars, many empty. Great place to watch trains! Thanks for the videos!
That Gradal hydroscopic was our biggest competor for the company I worked for here in Wynona. We made 40 to 60 hydroscopic a month and a lot of them went to the railroad,,,plus we also made truck mounted hydroscopics that mainly went to the railroads as rail mounted units.Ohio, Pennsylvania, & New York were our biggest sales states. We also made truck mounted cranes for the railroad,,,called "Little Giant " when the moved the Des Moines shop to Winona. I started there in 1968 & worked there 45 years TNX again Brian,,,stay safe
The Horseshoe Curve was deemed an extreme engineering feat when completed and still a wonder to see. Set in beautiful scenery in Pennsylvania, it's a railfans dream. Great camera work showing the Horseshoe Curve and long long trains starting and ending on the curves length. Awesome video Jaw Tooth.
I got that Airplane reference lol
We lived in Johnstown Pa when I was little. My Dad would take us to horseshoe curve to watch the trains.
Some great catches JT. Have you thought about visiting the Tehachapi loop?
Seeing the old Pennsy Geep sitting there reminds me: WILL YOU GET 1361 RUNNING ALREADY???!!! I CAN'T STANDS N' MORE!!! Great video and love the look back at the warm weather.
Interesting watching a train from on a bridge or overpass. Nice.A double stacker too. Good video. Enjoyed it. Thanks.
Super like video, have a nice day my friend!
Thank you! You too!
That is a great place.
This is definitely the best looking video ever, it's like a model train layout , the colour is pretty good,
Thank you very much!
Best song for this video is ... Never Marry a Railroad Man.
Yes, that song is awesome!
Surprised to see an ex Conrail Dash 8 40CW with nose mounted number boards! I thought that all of those were retired and scrapped!
Good video jawtooth
Jaw tooth and Allen millenniumforce
Nice coal train
🚂🌷🇮🇳🌷🚂
Thanks for watching Taslim!
YOU AND YOUR FREIND THE BEATLES OF RAILROAD VIDEOS AWESOME GOOD VIDEO THANK YOU BOTH.JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA
ANOTHER GOOD VIDEO OF THIS TRAIN AND I WATCH IT VERY GOOD INDEED THANK YOU JT FOR IT AND YOU. HAVE A GOOD DAY 👍
Thanks for filming around the horseshoe grounds! I’ve only seen it through the Virtual Railfan’s camera. Interesting to see it from ground level.
I have a similar overhead still shot of a Norfolk Southern intermodal exiting the small switching yard in Tilton, Illinois. I have good memories of that day (though the torrential rains caused some flooding in the area).
There's a lot to like in this one. Awesome sound when those engines pass under the bridge there. MOW in the tunnel. Probably picked Sunday evening as the time to work on it because it's a slow time for traffic. That first NS train at the curve just kept coming and coming and coming. There were a lot of huge cars on it too. Thanks.
Toot toot, horn salute... from the NS, and a bit later, from the Amtrak!
Very nice video! Of course, the location doesn't hurt matters any...
surely you jest, I love it.
A lot strange people around there great rail equipment pretty cool place great video thanks Jaw tooth
GOOD VIDEO OF THIS CATCH THANK YOU JT FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT I APPRECIATE IT AND YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY TODAY 👍 JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA 👌
Been wanting to visit this part of Pennsylvania. Loved this video.
Awesome Jaw Tooth, I have this on the train sim world. Thanks for posting!!
Very cool!
One of many 24/7 cameras at Horseshoe Curve--Virtual Railfan on RUclips shares them. YOU FINALLY GOT HERE--awesome place!
Wow!! That brings back memories of our holiday from the UK in 1993 when it was still Conrail. The other tunnel was still open at the time, thanks for the great videos 👍
They lowered the track in one tunnel to run the double stack containers thru. The same thing was done at the Spruce Creek tunnels.
Is that another tunnel closed-up….to the left - abandoned rail line? Real nice look-throughs built into the bridge fences. I love seeing Horseshoe Curve from the ground level, such a great place to view trains.
I see YT is presenting various ‘shorts’ videos on home pages now. I saw several rail-watching videos including one from 1960gambit. Your shorts should be popping up in the highlight bar soon. Thanks, Jaw Tooth.
The line once had 4 tracks, but it has been reduced to 3. That accounts for the closed tunnel. The other active track is out of sight to the right.
@@frederickschulkind8431 Looks like the active bore was made big enough for doublestacked freight, too, no way some of those cars would fit into the closed bore.
My hometown!
Awesome! I love visiting there. I hope to go back this summer
Great video thanks for sharing 👍
"what the heck was that"? Most likely Pennsylvanian freaks. Welcome to PA!🤣
That was recorded in green grand and glorious Summertime ☀️🌞🌻
Yea what a tease!
I like train videos videos on RUclips jawtooth 👍
I'm just a few miles away, down the mainline - nice to see something local to the area. Everybody talks about the Horseshoe Curve, but there was also the Muleshoe Curve, just a few miles south (due west of Hollidaysburg, PA), built by the state government as an alternative route up the mountain, then later bought by the Pennsy. I think it was first held in inactive status for several decades, but as traffic on the mainline grew, it was put into regular service, until finally embargoed and the tracks lifted. So, no railfanning, but it's got a trail as a consolation prize of sorts. You can look at the satellite photos at the old right-of-way, and see it really was just like its far more famous counterpart in Altoona.
What was the reason for the horse shoe?
Aren't the trains doubling back
Horseshoe Curve is a three-track railroad curve on Norfolk Southern Railway's Pittsburgh Line in Blair County, Pennsylvania. The curve is about 2,375 feet long and 1,300 feet in diameter. Completed in 1854 by the Pennsylvania Railroad as a way to reduce the westbound grade to the summit of the Allegheny Mountains, it replaced the time-consuming Allegheny Portage Railroad: the only other route across the mountains for large vehicles. The curve was later owned and used by three Pennsylvania Railroad successors: Penn Central, Conrail and Norfolk Southern. Horseshoe Curve was added to the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966. It became a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 2004. Horseshoe Curve has long been a tourist attraction. A trackside observation park was completed in 1879. The park was renovated and a visitor center built in the early 1990s.Wikipedia
Awesome video with a horn salute and lots of dpu working hard but wait there’s more 😎👍🇺🇸🚂❄️
Thanks 👍
I need to get out there to the Horseshoe Curve
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯🍀
Jaw tooth that's longer curved tracks and trains pulling hard ❤ 😊
Great video , about 1 hour from my home.
Sorry about the typos. My keys were sticking
Another ace vid! Keep 'em coming....
Awesome! I've got to go there sometime soon! Thanks JT! BTW your videos have gotten very smooth. Noticed a while back.
I enjoyed the video👍👍
It looks like that tunnel has barely enough clearance for those double stacks. Wow!
Great video JT! Awesome location!
🚂🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💯👍
Brilliant video JT. Awesome railfanning spots in beautiful countryside. Really liked the trains coming out of that tunnel but horseshoe bend something else... wow another to add to the bucket list. Happy new year..
Thank you very much!
My family still has pictures in old photo albums of Penn Central Geeps and Alcos battling the Curve.
That's the only way it's safe to be that close to a swift trailer
yup
I think it's really cool that the bridge authority (city, county, RR?) cut observation holes for rail fans to watch and record the trains coming out and going in the tunnel.
The gentleman in your video with is family i watches his videos sometimes he does the florida railfan
On GOOGLE Earth, just noticed that there are two rail wagons laying beside the track at Horseshoe Curve! Happy New Year to you JT and all your family.
those are from derailments a few years ago
That looks like a ballast cleaner. I saw one near my place before. They sift out the fine gunk from the stones and put them back on the track and dump the waste on the right of way.
Cool venue 😎 👍!
Happy New Year🎉🎉🎉
210K subscribers - yea! Well deserved Mr. JT.
Thanks!
As an avid railfan, I can teach you how to identify GE and EMD. GE and EMD have subtle differences when it comes to the C40-8 standard cab. The only thing setting them apart is GE has wings that merge into the body. EMD doesn’t quite have that because of the fans visible in the center. On other GE and EMD locomotives, the difference is more visible. GE has the rectangular windshields and tapered noses while EMD’s noses are tapered parallel with the rails and have a flat part on top. Also, EMD lacks the wings on their larger locomotives. EMD no longer stands for what you remember it standing for, as it’s no longer a GM division. It now stands for Electro-Motive Diesel, as EMD is now owned by Caterpillar.
🧢nice brandnew cap,you must see mine cap haevy used,lol😂
