Global 3 Yard Crew Ops. Model Train Layout Built for Operations and Realism. Season 2019 Episode 15.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- The Union Pacific Railroad Geneva Subdivision is an N Scale model train layout in its 11 year of construction. The layout is built for operations with many fun ops session successfully completed and many more yet to come. In addition to realistic model train operations, the layout strives to follow the actual Union Pacific as prototypical as possible.
This episode is an Operations Video on the Union Pacific Railroad Geneva Subdivision. Depicted are Global III yard crew operations that involve movement of cars from the classification tracks and the load.unload tracks. These operations are in addition to regular work adding and removing cars from trains that enter and depart Global III.

I lived just north of rochel for years. Used to go down and watch the trains roll through.
Great train watching spot!
I'm a conductor for UP, nice video. We still do jb hunt not massive amounts but we still get them.
Interesting, I may end up keeping the containers, just spread them out a bit.
@@EvanstonSub love your videos wanna build a layout for my son soon cause he loves trains
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
dont know why but im so in love with the u-boat series of engine.. Love your videos, keep up the good work
The one in the video is my only one.
Daryl,There are 2 Intermodal trains that pass through Southern California each day. B.N.S.F. All J.B.Hunt containers. The U.P. train is all green containers, E.M.P. or Hub Group. The containers on this train are all in blocks. E.M.P. at the front end Hub at the rear. No mixing. It's come all the way from Chicago. On line wags refer to it as the " Green Machine" or the white wall and green wall. Mosetly Intermodal trains are a mixture of containers. Sometimes I think you could turn the study of Intermodal trains in to a hobby all by itself. Cheers, Chris Perry.
Thanks so much for the information. It is very helpful.
Very nice work and video!!! Looking forward to the next one !!!
Finally someone doing a vid of an n scale lay out
Here's a great playlist. ruclips.net/p/PLX1NxLb-DQwa-ZIw1Il0djlr9bCk0Qr4b
Please be sure to share with all your N Scale friends! Thanks!
Really nice video. Great operations video. thanks for sharing. Dave
Global 3 located south of Joilet, Illinois? I heard that they were going to close this intermodal hub? I love intermodal operations! I'm planning on building a large container yard/trailer yard auto rack yard on my future layout. Total yard length about 25 feet long. Big intermodal yard to supply my 18 foot long container port! I have started building a small 6 foot container ship, but I just might turn that into a full size Panamanian SuperMax container ship? A true HO size container ship is about 15.5 feet long and 2 feet wide and 1.5 feet tall, I believe! 3 or 4 2 foot tall container cranes will be built to load/unload the ship.
Sound amazing. Global 3 is in Rochelle, IL. It has closed as a containter terminal, but they still use it for train classification and sorting.
Like the video I like to see more of you Layout please
CSX does most of Hunts transports east of the Mississippi. We see alot of them in the CSX intermodal yard i actually work in.
Thanks for the input. Have I gone overboard on the number of barriers?
So in my yard only place we have barriers is a single truck lane by road ability for the chassis. Im sure every yard is different in there own ways. Once i get the space i will be replicating my yard for my layout. Living in a apartment i have no space at all. All in all tho i think your ok with the barriers
Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
I just heard from Train Works. They are about to put out some more Trucks. Love there trucks.
Interesting. Was this a public announcement or insider information?
@@EvanstonSub I have a phone conversation with him. So did my brother Patrick. He just says it's in the works. Not give a date.
Enjoy your videos. I mix up my containers. See a lot of Hunt containers on CSX.
Yes, I should have said West of the Mississippi River since BNSF doesn't operate east of the river.
The remote engines are controlled by condutors with a remote controll box that they wear
Interesting. Are they on the ground coupling and uncoupling cars?
Yes generally, they act as a conductor and engineer all in one.
Very nice!!! Great video!
The extra cars your not using scrap them. If you have any extra locomotives scrap them. If you have people standing around get rid of them. Do that and you’ll have the new UP, KCS, CSX,NS. Lol the layout is really nice.
A joy to watch. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Bob
Another great video love the layout awesome job 👍! HIGHBALL HOGGER 😎
very nice video. behind the trailers, maybe a long guardrail, just for variety?
Interesting idea. I think I saw some guardrails on Shapeways. There is the point that I have too many barriers. I am not going to glue anything down until I am completely confident in their placement and number.
Excellent movement. Salute you, sir. What passion! Thank you for adding joy and wonderment to my day, my life, thousands of miles away. Keep posting. I am subbed and eagerly look forward.
My pleasure!
Let me start my saying that is the best yard I have seen yet. Awsome. I am looking for ideas as I am going to start a yard.
I was going to say....
If you are that set on realism you can give me the JB hunt containers I,ll buy them.
Thanks
Drove Intermodal in Chicago for JB Hunt....pretty accurate modeling...
very nice video, perfect backdrop. 👍👍👍
That was awesome keep up the good work my friend.
If you still want to get rid of those JB Hunt containers or any thing in N scale i’d be interested in having them. So if that still an option please message me and I will get back to you. Awesome layout I love it. Take care have a good day.
Up still hauls jb hunt containers from time to time but not in large amounts
I was going to say I see JB hunts on CSX, CP and CN
Yes the do all there work on the ground at times the do get on the walk ways and ride the engines to throw switches
Ken Rosser isn’t something like that how the Crazy 8’s situation happened?? Or is there an engineer in the cab and another guy riding to throw switches?
The reason some trains are mixed and others blocked, is because of either the boat that brought them: some ships will bring containers from other companies’ inventory as the shipper only had those cans available, or because they had a few hot containers that needed to go and they just combined those well cars with other consists.
makes sense.
Actually, you occasionally see JB hunt on UP, I have seen it before
Just a heads up, I dont believe BNSF has full exclusivity for JB Hunt movement. I live in Cincinnati and just shot a large CSX intermodal last week that was majority JB Hunt containers running thru Northern Kentucky and have seen them running in the area for a couple years. Maybe its because we have a major JB Hunt hub in the area?
But I have been looking for months for JB Hunt Containers with no luck to go with my NS/CSX layout. I just want a couple. So I will definitely be paying attention to your channel more to hear if you do a giveaway. That would be awesome.
But nice setup, very good details and layout flows nicely and you explain things very well.
I should have said West of the Mississippi.
@@EvanstonSub that would make sense. keep up the good work
good work Daryl. Those JB Hunts look out of place. I can see some potential buyers on the live stream and in comments.
Thanks Aaron.
Cool
Man I love those Uboats! Great video! Love the commentary and music! What kind of recorder do you use? Do you narriate while you are watching the video? Thanks!- Joey
I record the video first and then record the narration while I watch the video.
@@EvanstonSub I appreciate it! I need to do that and it makes the narration feel natural
The remotes are run by a pair of switch man on the ground. T hff ry perform all of the duties of a switch man and an engineer. If they were run from a tower, you may as well have an engineer in the cab.
It's well made from u
Nice, thanks for sharing. TMRCI.
Your layout is great I love it but you should dirty up your s.p locomotives some most of the s.p units are rusty dirty not too clean but fantastic layout
That's on the to do list.
Fantastic
NS runs JB hunt trains too
Yes, I should have said "west of the Mississippi River."
@@EvanstonSub Just was trying to be helpful, I love these videos.
We just got our first set of intermodal cars (Kato Gunderson MAXI-IV Double Stack 3 Unit Set [Pacer]) and this video was very educational for us! Thanks! Question: What couplers are you using? Are you swapping out for Micro-Trains, for example? If so, do you know the exact conversion kit number for our Katos? Thanks for your time!
Whats the make on your container cars? Are they Kato?
Also, is there any chance you could take an aerial shot of your track plan over top of the entrance to yard?
I have quite a few Kato double stack cars. Nice thin about the Katos is that they come with containers.There are also cars and containers by Deluxe Innovations, Atlas and Micro Trains
.
LIVE IN MALTA LOVE YOUR WORK
Daryl, I would be interested in the JB Hunt containers if you still have them
Looks amazing, I've subbed
Excellent. Don't miss the new premiere tonight at 7:00 pm EST
You may have heard of the "Many Worlds" hypothesis that allows for many universes. You could model the universe where everything is the same as this one except for the J B Hunt contract. And that's exactly what you ARE doing because I see J B Hunt container right there! I use this idea on my RR.
Your videos are cool u should do a auto rack ho scale train video
great work, I agree on the auto rack video like they are coming through. you see them running a lot in Southern California with UP.
I might just do the auto rack train next. However, it would have to be a N scale train :).
can any of you tell me if there is a limit to how long a n scaletrack can be
i would like to do a first time build but want a very large setup in the 1000 ft track range
thanks
As long as you wire everything correctly it can be as long as you want. Bus wires, with multiple feeders to the tracks are everything...
Yep, pretty much no limit. It would only take 12 miles of track to do a complete model of the UP from Chicago to California.
@@dylanhale7300 thank you
i understand the bus wires now
nice
Really liked the video thank you. I see your SP and Cotton Belt engines are patched, I personally run a very similar era as you and have done some patch units also. I don't know how to do the number boards. How did you do your number boards? If you did them yourself can you please do a quality, and step by step video???? Please. I haven't found anyone with a good video of doing number boards. Thank you.
Have not done any number boards.
The TTX 53 cars have 53 or48 size containers? Great layout and video! ty
Just saw 53 on the side of container answering my question. ty
Hello, I saw your large fence, did you make in one piece or divided in multiple parts? Thank you
Multiple parts. They are metal etchings from Gold Metal Products.
geneva illinois???
The Geneva Subdivision of the Union Pacific Railroad runs through northern Illinois from chicago to Clinton, IA
NS ships JB Hunt as well, them and EMP come through on the line I am modeling.
Cool, I thin BNSF has the contract for west of the Mississippi.
That general looked like code mnvorp
????
You did not put a track in for empty well cars and tofc cars
Only so much room :)
Hello. Enjoyed your video. Was also curious whether you still have the JB Hunt containers and would be willing to ship them to me. I am happy to cover the shipping costs.
Jbhz containers on a BNSF deep well isn't out of the question. How's this for realism? Jbhz containers on a trailer chassis (jbhz chassis are usually found under jbhz containers for the following reason) on spine cars?
(Don't forget the ups trailers and Schneider, too)
Although BNSF originates the logistics of a move, the container (s) can move on any pool (foreign or BNSF) car, with that car being trip leased (itx) by BNSF for the duration of the move (f-y-i).
A 1¢ thought that has 2¢ tax tacked on.
This layout is long gone. Chek out the Evanston sub
Dude, just patchjob the JBH container into leaser boxes!
Excellent idea. Got any prototype photos?
@@EvanstonSub , lemme search my collection.
JBHunts can and are only JBHunts. The box is the same size but the front and back pin holes are set closer to the corner of the box they call it wideset pins.
And the tunnel is narrower as well. When you have a chance tape measure out the JBHunt bare chassis.
You'll see what I mean. And they scrap their boxes like UPS does they don't resell like the others do.
Can you do a metra video
Where did you get the new concrete barrier?

Union Pacific Geneva Subdivision thank you so much
If you're giving way containers...
I’d like your JB hunt containers
I model both BNSF and Union Pacific
Cool
Did u ever get rid of you jbl containers???
I still have them.
Interesting video and I like the structures all around your layout!
As for the engine shed You are planning to stick on ballast and soapy water, are they scratchbuilt, modified from other buildings or a kit commercially available?
Looking forward for Your response!

Micro Engineering and PikeStuff
Thank You for the info! Your layout is so realistic and large! It obviously took You quite a long time to build it!
Keep up Your great work!
je kahan se late ho
Are the jbhunt containers still available
Nope. Decided to keep them for now.
10:21 B30-7?
I think so
Just wondering if anyone knows what happened to the railroad's proprietary containers. You used to see containers with ATSF or BN markings on them but you don't see that any more.
CN has 53 domestics CSX has 53 ft domestics
UMAX and EMPU are sister companies owned by UP
53 Dom's Most the big trucking companies have some domestics JBHunt Swift Schineder Hub group
UPS FedEx multimodal Crowley & Trailer Bridge Totes Marine all go to Ports Rico exclusively. Seaboard
Does Latin America and the Carribiean islands Matson Dole and Chiquita all go to Hawaii. And or Latin America.
JB Hunt boxes only fit on JBHunt chassis.
Werner CR England Martin
FFE KLLM. COLD TRAIN all run 53 domestic reefers
Pacer is now XPO ex Pacer boxes can be EMP or UMAX
Just change the 4 letter code in front. Umxu CSXU EMHU. Norfolk Southern has their own chassis pool chassis. CSX uses DCLI or Trac. Crowley Schineder Seaboard Trailer Bridge have their own chassis still.
They do not mix. Sorry for the long post. I work in intermodal and find it fascinating still.
Jerry Kinnin , Thank you very much. So did BN and ATSF containers get absorbed by JB Hunt after the merger?
@@silversunlicker not sure. My guess would be got absorbed by UMAX and EMP. pay attention to all the different names on the "cans". UMAX seems to have the most variety in old names. Some I've pulled are 15yrs old and have 2 ,3 names in host on them. And don't forget about 20 ft ISO tank containers. Schineder and Quality Carriers has 40 ft tank containers. They are rare on the rail though.
When staging the boxes under the crane. 20s stack on 20s 40s and 45s can stack together 53s stack together. And the 53s at 1 rail I go to go straight to the chassis off the train. But that rail is a UPS hub. So it deals in trailers as well.
I've only seen 3 48 ft cans in 6 yrs of hauling rail freight.
And they were in the weeds in a back corner of a back corner of the rail. One rail I go to is a litteral mud hole.
Think gravel pit/dust hole.
Nothing stays new for long.
Jerry Kinnin Very cool. I lived in Long Beach near the ports so I've seen a lot of containers. Most are international shippers. As a rail fan a got excited seeing flexi-van on mud flaps and quite frequently see Union Pacific chassis under EMP etc., trailers. Logistics seems like a fun line of work, always great to hear from those in the industry.
@@jerrykinnin7941 some jb hunt actually go to Puerto rico
Can ypu see byron nuke plant in your back drop?
No. BTW, this lay was torn down in 2020. Check out my new HO scale UPRR Evanston Sub.
I'll take the JB Hunt boxes it would look good on my layout
Mas berrapa kereta itu
40 cars
please let me know... i'll take them off of your hands... taking many pointers from you
Sorry but that layout is long gone as are the containers. Check out my new layout UPRR Evanston Subdivision
i coulduse them ,ho ,trying to build a container yard now ,i,m disabled,,limited income
sorry just sine date
Ini mainan anak kecil
Cool
