    Great seeing the light blue Caboose roll by at Kansas City. I enjoyed that bit of Switching in the night and hearing the engines rumble as they idled and then set-back. That small Yard by the Mainline makes for an ideal Model. All those different engines were good to see too, thanks VRF.

    Oh man, that lightning--!!!! Plus a fantastic sunset with cumulonimbus at OKC and lots of footage from Horseshoe Curve, which is always gorgeous. Loved the Bessemer & Lake Erie engine too--thanks for another great one!

    As a resident of Pennsylvania and about an hour away, I loved the views from the Horseshoe Curve in this video.❤ So many engines! 😯

    Wow! Excellent catching all the trains in multiple locations, especially the Heritage Units, lighting strikes in Fort Madison, Iowa, and so much more, I like them, they're awesome, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much and have a nice day.

    For my money, there is no better-looking livery than the Southern Railroad. Nice to see that legacy paint job on the Curve.

      It's one of the best heritage schemes out there. Perhaps the best. I was pleased when I saw it in person in Cordele last november.
