Super video. Good luck with the brakeman training.
It's interesting the way that these smaller lines keep the old locomotives operating... like SD40s, etc.
Man, do they handle a lot of LPG…seems like they’re pulling ‘em in every train. And thanks for passing up the play-by-play narration…informational text is much better; VERY well done.
Yessss cooper wle is back!!!!!!!!
I hope to see you in Connellsville someday!
I can’t wait to see you on the Brewster sub
This is a very nice regional road. I remember reading about it years ago in Trains magazine. Most Americans have no idea how important these smaller lines are to the US economy.
I love watching WLE and seeing all their colorful power (even though their corporate colors rock). I'm surprised for how large they are they still haven't added any bigger EMDs to their fleet.
WLE train K291 with an Grey Ghost!
Congrats landing a job with the W&LE. I hope it doesn't kill your enjoyment of train watching. Many employees think we're crazy for watching/filming. It's old hat to them 😀
INTX!
Another great video hope to see you on the Wheeling soon!
Ah ye, W&LE #6353 is a movie star train.
Twas the 1206 in unstoppable
