Got to love those old EMDs sd40-2s hum as they work up and down those rolling hills. This video has the best sound I've heard in along time. Thankyou for all the hard work that went into this presentation.
Thank you so much, Mike! Lots of sleepless nights (and days) were spent capturing footage for this show. We appreciate you watching, and we thank you for the kind words.
@@CVisionProductions1 I've been a conductor at UP since 2004 and really appreciate it when someone loves this railroading so much that they go out with no guarantees of seeing anything and make these videos. Thanks again.
Your comments remind us that all those long days and nights spent looking for trains with little to no sleep was worth it. We had to be on the railroad’s schedule (anytime day or night) to complete this project. Staying up all night to find a train before sunrise was commonplace back then. But really, it was a lot of fun. Thanks again, Mike!
Awesome Footage of the long Gone DM&E And that is a Cool CP Rail line that Goes to Tracy Minnesota And the RCP&E nows Interchanges with both CP Rail at Tracy Minnesota And Union Pacific Track is a little Scary And there is a-lot of Rocking And Rolling on the Jointed Rail Awesome RUclips video of the DM&E now CP Rail 😁😁😁😁🙂🙂🙂💯💯💯💯💯💯
@@CVisionProductions1 I did a M-HURC Chase RCPE 3447 but it was Arriving to Rapid City And The crew were very nice But On Lacrosse St And Anamosa St He stopped there
Think im the only one who loves hearing the trains pass threw waseca. Although I will admit with zero crossing in town above or below grade it does get annoying with traffic. But its not bad with the lack of trains except in spring and fall coinciding with plant and harvest. The rest of the year it seams most traffic is to the ethanol plant in Janesville and the 3 mills in Mankato. Used to work in the Brown Printing plant on the west side of Waseca. Wed have a few cars bringing paper to to the plant but sadly its since closed.
Thank you for sharing your insights on the railroad’s operation. We’re sorry to hear that Brown Printing has closed. That must have been a major blow to the community. Thanks again for watching and commenting.
Ahh. Finally. News about this line now today: jointed rail still remains in the City of Eagle Lake but for how much longer is questionable. The railroad crossing signals at main st. In Janesville have been replaced in 2021 sometime. The sites really have not changed much other than CP GEs now running the line. A lot of foreign power can be seen a lot of the time though I will admit due to living right next to this line.
Yea. It’s my home town. I did note that recently in the past couple years CP has done some work. Just in 2021 a couple sections of jointed rail was replaced outside of town. But from the east side of Eagle lake to Waseca is now all welded rail. I believe the speed limit in that area now has also been increased. I’m disappointed that all the trains that once roamed this line has been reduced. Your lucky to get at least one train in daylight out on this line today. Somedays there are more than others but most trafic runs through durring the night hours now. One of the crossings in Eagle lake 598th ave had its signals signals replaced in June of 2019. Only one crossing remains on the line between Mankato and Waseca with a mechanical bell. Sading to see
Nice job capturing the different seasons

I really like watching the SD40-2 units!
They always put on quite the show! It was great to see so many SD40-2s earning their keep on the DM&E back in those days. Thank you, MJ!

Excellent video and very interesting to see a snow plow in action; well done.
Thank you very much! We were grateful to see those plows in action.

@@CVisionProductions1 do you know why they just stop there Before they cross The Crossing
Not 100% sure on that, Chris. But we’re glad you got to see them!
@@CVisionProductions1 I live on St Patrick St Rapid City So everyday I hear RCPE Coming from the yard

The Guy on the Bike almost Got Creamed by the DM&E SD40-2 at Mankato Minnesota
I hate seeing People Going in front of a Moving Train
Yes, he almost did! That was tough to watch. He didn’t have good sight lines due to that flood wall. And… there were two tracks. Recipe for disaster.

Thank you for the update, Ryan! It’s surprising that the jointed rail is still in place. Eagle Lake is a neat location.

We appreciate all of that information. Lots has changed in the past 15 years!
19:53 Who's the dope in the green jacket?? 😄
Somebody cool! And someone who is now internet famous ;) Thank you for watching and commenting, sir.
He has no clue as he packs up. There were dozens of these types when Big Boy rolled through here. Absolutely clueless.
Is that draton from delay in block production?
