  • In the absence of wizard Joe Peach some of our other team members have stepped up to provide some Grab Bag entertainment until he is able to return. While we cannot promise the regular schedule of previous releases we will do our best to post them regularly.
    Our VRF Grab Bags (GB) videos are compiled from content from our cameras as Mods and fans spot something neat while watching our cameras. In the GB you will, of course, find a variety of TRAIN content, special trains, maintenance, steam, diesels, interesting rail cars, cool paint schemes and more. You will also find fun people, city events, boats, planes, cars (sometimes going wild) and nature. Thank you for taking the time to sit back and enjoy these highlight reels that we call "Grab Bags"!

    I would like to thank whoever gave me the free month of membership!! I am retired and unfortunately it is out of my budget range!! PS, I just saw the Lackawanna heritage unit and it brought back big memories. I used to run train crews around in my taxicab, basically out of Binghamton, NY and/or Scranton, PA to Syracuse, Buffalo, Corning and a ton of other places when I took crews back home after they had worked their full shifts. We always had a good time, the RR employees were wonderful and whatever they wanted, we took care of

    The Christmas Train brought back memories when BNSF (BN back then) had their Christmas Train. The were so excited and the train was really decked out. A cousin of ours always volunteered to be the engineer each year. He got a kick out of seeing both the kids and adults reactions. Great video. thanks!

    Loved the Holiday Train, the engagement at La Plata (congratulations!), and that gorgeous sunrise. It sure was blizzardy in Arvada, and I'm glad that they got the car fire out in OKC. But good grief, what did that poor engineer in Deshler do that they stuck him behind *a full hour* of other traffic?? I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and best wishes to Joe Peach!

    Really enjoyed this grab bag. Best wishes to Mr Joe Peach. The CPKC Christmas train looked great. More fun with traffic control in La Grange I see. Those were some mighty big toasters on the Schnabel cars at OKC. 8^) At 7:01 ish - not a great spot fer a cookout. Hope the firemen liked the brats! Liked the coiled wire load see thru the bushes too. I saw the proposal at LaPlata live, that was unexpected. Congratulations to the happy couple. Cheers!

    1:44 that Dash 9 must've been in storage for a long time! Probably heading to Erie to be rebuilt into an AC44C6M
    2:06 the one car that has been in Southern Pacific colors for a long time has finally been repainted into a CSX livery. TGC2 also got new paint like the CSX business cars (again at 16:44)
    6:02 that yellow flatcar might be for the New York City subway or some other subway system
    6:21Pan-Am Railways became part of CSX in 2022. Originally called Guilford Rail System, it acquired the branding of the defunct airline in 1998. Guilford acquired the Maine Central and Boston & Maine railroads, so there might be a chance CSX does heritage units of those two.
    7:45 double heritage units!
    12:33 NPBL can also be considered a heritage unit since all other NPBL locomotives are now ex-NS black

    CPKC in my opinion should have kept the 2 boxcars that said "Canadian Pacific" and added 2 more that would say "Kansas City". But I guess we should be happy with what we have!

      Why do people still do this trend, all your doing is wasting your time commenting on a video says “Under (something) minutes gang” in order to get tons of people to like and reply under your comment.
      Don’t post a comment on a video unless your actually commenting about the video itself please.

      Train equipped with sensors and cameras that travels along tracks to precisely measure various parameters like alignment, curvature, cross-level, and rail profile, essentially acting as a mobile inspection system to identify potential track defects and ensure safe railway operations; it uses lasers and video technology to gather detailed data about the track geometry.

      It is CPKC that calls it a Holiday Train.. it is on the side of the train and has been this way for a while. So out of respect to what they call their train we will call it that also.
