W&LE train 663 Falls Junction to Cleveland with a Trainee Conductor aboard 102 operation lifesaver
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 июл 2024
- W&LE 111 leads the 565 train on the Solon Industrial after spotting the Home Depot distribution center. There was a crew change at the crossing and the 663 crew took charge of the train. They would head out onto the Cleveland Sub, let the conductor and trainee off at the switch and pull the train north of the turnout. Then they would shove the train south of Falls Junction Depot on the siding and leave most of the train before heading north to Cleveland. They have 2 customers up there: Ferrous Processing & Trading and Shelly Materials stone transload. This was a light day with only 2 empty gons heading north to Ferrous. We caught them first in Bedford going past the depot. This was filmed November 20th so the city was there decorating the park while I was filming. We also saw them passing through Calvary Cemetery on the south side of Cleveland. Outside Shelly the crew ran the engines around the train and shoved into Ferrous. They pulled 3 loaded cars and departed south. We see them pass a collapsing building at Miles Ave and enter Calvary Cemetery. Bedford would be my last shot of this chase.

These videos NEVER disappoint. Always so well done. Thank you!
Thanks for responding, Scott. As I mentioned, The Fairbanks - Morse engines were my introduction to Diesel Locomotives in early 1954.
Before that, all I knew was steam - both on the Lake Erie & Western district of the Nickle Plate at Kansas, Ohio, and on the B&O Chicago division Garrette Subdivision at Tiffin, Ohio and Defiance, Ohio. The best views in Sycamore were of East bounds because you heard them for such a long time before you saw them ! With an H - 20 - 44 in the lead - long end first followed by an H - 16 - 44 you could here the heavy pounding of the O.P. engines quite a ways away. Then there was the Nathan M5R24 horn on the H - 20 - 44' s that would wake up the dead !
Crossing Main street , they would be pounding so hard at 40 mph the loose windows in our clabbard house would buzz ! And they always sent a pall of blue/white smoke and sparks flying out the stacks of both locomotives which, in October of 1958, set a cornfield on fire next to the tracks on the East side of town . Quite an exciting time for a 6 yr. old !!
As always a fantastic video. Certainly a line with low speeds it sure had its fair share of Curves. Some great architecture along the toute plus the gritty feeling with the scrap yards. Great motive power too glad to still see it running and clean at that
Thank you for sharing.👍
@@elsdp-4560 thanks for watching
Great shot Scott
Like the Nathan 1st gen K5LA on W&LE 111 like the gp35's running long hood forward like taking back in the Southern Railway
Great Job Bro
@@matthewfawbush7731 thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
#102 is actually an ex-Southern Railway unit. It's been rebuilt, and reconfigured to have the short hood at the front -- you can see the "F" mark at 9:15.
How many GP35's are in the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway
Any thoughts about of the 2662
@@beeble2003 ALCO or GE Trucks under the second unit, a rebuild?
@@danielhutchinson6604 At one point, EMD gave railroads the option of trading in their existing locomotives. They'd reuse the trucks and traction motors, and I guess they scrapped the rest. Wikipedia's GP35 article says that Southern's GP35s were Alco FA trade-ins, which explains the trucks on number 102. WE 111 is an ex-DRGW unit.
WLE 111 has a brilliant sounding K5LA horn! Way better than the modern raised letter 3rd gen K5LA!
Great video, I always enjoy seeing Wheeling and Lake Erie. Quick question, what camera do you use.
@@jeffstrains Thank you. I have a Panasonic HC-X1. Been using this one about 5 years now.
Great camera work
@@tomstevenson7940 thank you!
Nice video. I never realized there are tracks THROUGH Calvary Cemetery.
Thank you. Yup off to the west side but they bisect the cemetery and the tree line is beautiful in the fall.
Great vídeo.i love This Paint scheme ❤❤❤.
Thank tou
I rode those rails!
@@TheNorthwestWind yes I remember your video. Haha I’d never have the courage to go do that.
@@ScottTaipaleRail it was sketchy but fun
Enjoyed the video
@@user-dz9iq7ud2m thank you
Felicitaciones, es un Vídeo muy hermoso, gracias.
Dear Scott, I did a little "growing
up" in Sycamore, Ohio , a town on the right of way of the old AC&Y from the mid '50's to the very early '60's , and got to daily experience the 2 types of road switchers Fairbanks - Morse produced - H - 16 - 44 and H -20-44 pass before me either East or Westbound - a mere block away while living on Main Street. So, I'm very interested in the operations of the W&LE at the West end of what's left of the old AC&Y, and thank you in advance for your coverage of that area . At that time of the mid '50's ,
It was the AC&Y that introduced me , at the age of 3 and 4 yrs old, to diesels in the first place. Prior to that, I knew only steam : on the Lake Erie &Western district of the Nickel Plate at Kansas, Ohio ( #60 and 61 - Sandusky to Lima and return - peddler milk run) , and B&O
from Tiffin, Ohio to Defiance, Ohio behind President Class Pacific's.
So, AC&T's FMs are near and dear to my heart with both the memory of the sound of their prime movers and the sound of the Nathan M5 horns on the H - 16 - 44's and the sound of the Nathan M5R24 horns on the H - 20 - 44's. Thanks again for your efforts!
Thanks for commenting. I would have loved to see the real AC&Y. I have shot trains in sycamore but the wheeling uses SD40-2’s on those stone trains.
1:26 I noticed that the second unit #102 on this train has ALCO trucks.
I see they took the switch out at the old Franklin Oil. Nice video.
@@davidsharp3110 thank you. Where was Franklin Oil?
@@ScottTaipaleRail On the other side of the tracks from The Bedford Historical Museum.
Just south of the Bedford Depot. The building is there as seen on your video. The tracks are visible, the switch has been removed. The siding in front of the depot was also removed in the last 10 years or so. That area was my stomping grounds in the mid 70s.
@@davidsharp3110 I see. I wouldn’t have figured that spot to be an oil dealer.
@@ScottTaipaleRail When I was a kid in the mid 70s, there was always an oil tanker sitting on that track. I think they replaced them once a week. This went on into the late 80s.
Super film - Like .
Great video
Thanks!
❤❤❤
Parabéns pelo vídeo…
O Estados Unidos é muito bonito…
Vcs preservaram as ferrovias. Aqui no BRAZIL, acabaram com as ferrovias em detrimento ao Rodoviário.
Gostaria de ver vídeo sobre a Estação de Búfalo.
Sou ferromodelista e faço ferrovias americanas escala HO. Já comprei na Walthers, Ebay e etc. O dólar disparou no Brazil.
Um forte abraço.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very good video and looks cinematic 😊
Why does the train run so slowly even though it uses 2 locomotives? Are the items you are carrying really heavy? Or is there a speed limit?
I'm a Railfan from Indonesia 😁.
@@agungguritno5766 thank you. They were just going the speed the track was rated. They’ve done a maintenance program and trains are moving faster this year.
The train's not very heavy -- under 1000 tons including the locomotives. And the 5000hp (~3.7MW) from two GP35s is more than enough power. The low speeds are because of the tight curves and grade crossings, and because they're switching.

Is the second engine a GP 7?
Неплохо
Excellent video my friends awesome like and Greeting from Argentina nuevo subcritor suscribete 😊
Thanks for the sub!
What are the 2 locos here ? Pls tell
This job usually brings more cars north. Plus they would pick up those cars they left at Falls to take south to their Brewster yard, I was just out of time to film.
@@ScottTaipaleRail can you pls tell what model the 2 locomotives are? They look to be emd but I can't guess their models.
👍👍👍
