- 03/22/2023 Montour, Ia. Finally the day of the track 2 bridge replacement. Another minute later on arrival and I would have missed the view of the old CNW bridge on the crane! The lunda Construction crew apparently had an early start that morning. There was a lot going on at once that day and I spent nearly 12 hours in Montour. A hand full of trains went by with slow orders throughout the day. The track 1 bridge will also be replaced sometime in early April.
I was working there in that video
Cutting off driven in beams, replacing the part they cut off with a concrete prefab piece and then bolting it and welding it to the driven cut beams. Interesting . Holy crap, they are prefabricating the rails with ties and everything like model railroading minus the bedding. It's certainly much less back breaking than it used to be but these guys do hard work. In the weather none the less. they are very important to how we get our products and how we ship anything inland aside of by water and rails compete with the river boats also. There are railways along almost every river and most notable sized creeks in the USA.
I don't know how long the prep work took but they knocked out this part amazingly fast in my opinion! Obviously not this crew's first rodeo. 😊😊😊😊
Hello, my name is Brad my parents are Iowa folks My mom lived in Cedarfalls. My dad is from Des Moines anytime I get a chance to see something from Iowa. I will watch it.
Its called a trestle in railroading not a bridge!
Can you imagine how hard it is to get an exact measurement for something like this? Even a temperature fluctuation could make a big difference due to expansion or contraction. I'm guessing. 😊
And an even longer eastbound! Good trains this morning. If I was one of the construction crew I'd just as soon UP didn't run trains by while excavation was going on right beside the tracks. 😮 😊😊😊❤❤❤
They guarantee fast service no matter how long it take Indeed .
Yes Red I'm watching from of the side of Dysart Rd between the freeway and Dysart Rd at Seymour Vic Australia where I'd moved to after the floods that we recently had after taking some time to find a spot where I have sunshine for my Sola cells to charge the batrys as I'v only 12volts to run everything and as I'm a pentioner now at 73nd a half years I'm loving the greate view n'd I hope you can excuses me for not being able to donate as the 900 a fortnight doesn't cover much but tuka n'd a bit of clothing in a fortnight but it's been greate viewing the whole days effort THANKS FOR THAT.! fantastic effort Red.!
Penn Dot needs to hire these for training in our state where a bridge like that would take two years, and need repaired in three.
People don't understand how much skill the crane operator has to lay that section in as smooth as he did. Nice coverage.
I really enjoyed this video. Great job!
I loved it what a good shotof this train aswell Red.!
