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"!

      And Engineers! They started way back a little leery of the cameras, after seeing themselves on our cameras and the commenters giving hellos and favorable comments, it became a daily thing. We are so glad to have gone from the little kid giving the crew a vigorous pull the horn and wave to an affectionate, family like exchange of greetings.

    This was a great grab bag today. Foxes, eagle, two musicians, some great train cars and engines and a caboose, no cupulo on top but still a caboose, my favorite of all train cars.❤🦅🦊🪕🚃❤

    Hooray for the Happy Honker and Happy Birthday to his mom! Beautiful foxes and a terrific eagle. I always love the rocket launches, but I wish I could have heard what our railfanning instrumentalists were playing--I couldn't make it out even with my volume cranked. And didn't the Fort Madison footage with Ferromex and the Amazon piggyback appear twice? The final footage from Burlngton looked like another world after all that snow; it was almost like a mini-vacation. Thanks for another great one!

    That CSX Cab was nice to see, in such good condition and I liked the Musical Duo at intermission. The Yreka and Western is not so rare on my HO layout, I like the Logo.

    When my father was a young boy, steam was still commonly used on the UP lines. I'm 52, and as I look at some of these locomotives, I realize how old they are and remind me that I am not a young man any longer. Great grab!

      @jamiesuejeffery,
      I'm in my 70s, and can recall seeing steam in revenue service back in the early to mid-50s on NKP, C&O, and N&W, and yes, it was quite a show while it lasted.

    @cmac9029 6 месяцев назад +2

    My local shortline up here in Barrie, Ontario transloads new untreated ties in their yard. Interesting to see the differences as they just load them into old coal hoppers and send them off, whereas here they’re carefully placed (in bundles?) and special flat cars. We’ve even had some old Sultrans cars, and an old woodchip car or two.

    • @joepeach997

    Does anyone else remember when you could use that rainbow gradient in certain chat rooms back in the 90s, like CryoTrans used on the Brophy typeface on their reefers. (At 1:31). Boy, does that seem dated now!!! And BTW: those old Yreka Western 5-bay hoppers could also have been Oregon Pacific & Eastern as well.

    For those who don’t know, the event at 11:44 is called thunder snow. Same as a thunderstorm with rain, only snowing instead. Not very common and can be scary if you’ve never experienced it before.
