Always good when the video starts off with an SD40 and GP38 not to mention the pristine box. too bad they weren't going up hill so we could hear those classic 2-stroke 645's.
Square wheels are like taking a sledgehammer and whacking the bearing and whacking the ball of the rail and that is not going to end well for either one of them! Thanks for another video and we do enjoy them very much.
😊SWEET you got a horn salute in this video so did I on Thursday this week it was a really good one aswell my horn salute and herd 3 female engineer s on my radio scanner on Thursday its always an awesome feeling when you get a horn salute made me go home smiling 😃 Thursday night
Boy, that’s one nasty flat spot on that square wheel, caused by heavy braking, so I’ve heard. I’ve also heard that these cars do have a long shelf life. And a cool horn salute too. That’s one neat little spot JT, just wish people didn’t litter. Nice work Jawtooth.👍🏼
General flat spots are caused when handbrake is left applied and the car is moved or by sticking brakes when a brake application has been made and the brakes stick when the trainline brakes are then released
I read somewhere that there is a spec for out-of-round wheels. I guess it would cause a lot of damage to the rails. The hard part is - who finds them and measures them? Railroads are usually good at maintenance, so maybe those "thumpers" will be found :)
One problem is that even if a specific car is know to have a "marginal" wheel, as long as the car is in service the RR will have to live with it. Some of these cars end up far, far, far away from the entity that owns it. Maybe they need to tighten the standards so that bad wheels are replaced more quickly wherever the car happens to be.
@@GilmerJohn Good point - they have to identify the problem and then somehow catch it when it can be moved off to maintenance. Time off the rails probably costs money, but these things need to be fixed.
Great good video, mr Jaw Tooth. That horn salute was a warning. You stay on the wrong site celebrity American: there is on a other track also a train coming. But you understand that. Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands 🇾🇪🇺🇸.
The flat wheels are both rail breakers and wheel breakers. They get that way on account of long trains. It takes a while for air brakes to apply so part of train is stopping and part moving. Result is wheels get locked and become flat. Proper solution is to shorten trains and to put more wheel lathes around system.
20:50 Love the funfacts and that location, thanks for sharing that with us. Lucky train car gets to retire in 8 years with mandatory retirement at age 50. Wish we had that.
@@JawTooth Don't know if you've seen it yet, but CSX just put a Chessie heritage unit on the rails (and not the little sticker thing) A Chessie paint scheme. This shortly after the B&O heritage unit hit the rails! A trend I hope CSX continues!
All the Genesee and Wyoming lines do -- including, now, some in the UK! The downside of G&W buying up all those regionals and short lines is that now they're a massive company, so more stringent emissions regulations apply to them, so a lot of that classic old power is likely to be retired before too long.
I'm really envious of the fact that my country never had a single American locomotive on its railroad. Being a former British colony, we were only used to seeing British locomotives then and now most of those locomotives have been phased out leaving a few to do shunting works. Presently, we ve indian & chinese makes plying our railroads... personally, i see it as nothing compared to the American work horses. Great videos Jawtooth
Nice video, Boss. But, Things are much more boring today. I miss the days of around 30 years ago when there were still a lot of 4-axle locomotives, rebuilt 1st generations, EMD's and U-boats, not to menition "butt-head" switchers like the one on the CET. However, I must say, it was very nice to see the SD40-2 and the "Geep" coupled to it in new paint. Thank the Lord for shortline railroads! What happened to the brown and white duck on your place? Is it dead? Thanks for another great video.
That would be cool to get that exact train in H.O scale - Photo the train and then computer 3D print the dirt on the locomotives & rust + graffiti on the cars 😳 I love the Northfolk Southern black painted locomotives and logo .. Would love to copycat that entire train in an H.O scale form
Just watched another railfanning video from Winton Place.Found out the city of Cincinnati is gating the area off.Don't know if it's true.Let everyone knows if it's true or not.Thanks.
Are those cooling systems on the front and back of the tropicana cars? How are they powered, battery? Must to do a great job to keep a whole trim car cool. I want to get one for the side of my house.
Canal Ridge became private in 2018. There will be a gate coming soon to that road, you can see the post for it at the end of the fence right by the road. This is information directly from Queensgate when I was there
Yep, I was going to post that also. My grandson and I were just down there yesterday, and I noticed the gate post. I told him I was afraid they were going to put a gate up! THAT SUCKS!! As usual, a few morons mess it up for everyone! "The Ridge" is our go to spot here at home. Hamilton is good, but it's not The Ridge. This is really a bummer. I suppose you could still park in the lot just to the west and walk up to the viewing spot, but what a pain. We've noticed an increased CPD presence on the road lately, but they've always just waved and never told us to leave, so maybe we'll get lucky and they'll only lock it down at night.
Yes, they do -- anything with a red hazmat placard is flammable. Yes, they get hot in the sun, but not hot enough to cause problems. Remember that a fire needs air and there's almost none of that in a loaded tank car. It also typically needs an ignition source to start a fire. For example, ethanol burns _really_ easily but it won't spontaneously combust until you heat it to 365°C (690°F) -- a tank car is never going to get close to that (and the spontaneous combustion needs air, too).

Thank you! You too!
Another great video JT. Thanks again for sharing. Have a good weekend. God bless
Excellent! There’s a lot of videos from past years people really need to watch.
Great way to pass time!
Thanks again Jawtooth!
Glad you like them!
@@FabianDiazTrainsTrucksNCars thanks for watching!
25:48 That’s enough hopper cars to last a lifetime! Sheesh! 😂 Amazing effort to catch all of those trains for us today! Thank you.
My brother in-law worked Indiana & Ohio for 20 + years as an engineer..Now retired...Thx JT for the videos..
Awesome! Do you know which line? Thanks for watching !

Boy. You could get a lot of orange juice on that Tropicana train. That was cool! 😊😊
Have a great weekend JT. And your furbabies are way too cute
Thank you! You too!
You are welcome
Merci beaucoup pour cette très belle vidéo ! 👍✨
Thanks for watching !
@@JawTooth 🖐🖐🙏🙏🙏🙏
We used to call cars with extremely flat wheels, "rail breakers"
Hey jaw tooth cool trains. Very busy place for trains. Have a great weekend and a great railroad day 🙋♀️
Hey JawTooth you and your family
Have a great weekend
Great video 👍👍👍👍👍👌
Thanks! You too!
First rate through and through. Enjoyed this one much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another fun day. New cars and lots of Tropicana. 😊
Oh yes!
That yard is like Hotel California- go in but no one comes out
Interesting group of trains. Good spot to watch. Thanks, Jaw Tooth.
Kinda great place great train action great video thanks Jaw tooth
Amazing videos Jaw tooth keep up the good work
Thanks for the video
One of my favourite channels
Thanks!
Great video man! Keep up the great work
another outstanding video as always...keep up the fantastic job...!!!
Thanks, will do!

thanks for watching!
More likely to be caused by a stuck brake than heavy braking. The wheel has to be dragged around for quite a while to develop a significant flat spot.
Good Morning All.. Have a great weekend!! Stay Safe..
Good morning!
Nice video Mr. Tooth. Excellent quality, interesting
Thanks for the video today, Brian. Always enjoyable to watch. Enjoy the weekend, and see you on the next! 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video, the one train was really long.
Excellent Video
🥀🏵️🇮🇳🏵️🥀
thank!
No wonder trains are falling over with wheels in that state. The forces effecting the axels and track must be enormous. Great evening viewing JT.
I assume that the square wheels are caused by the brakes locking on these wheels, resulting in wear on the running surface in contact with the rail.
General flat spots are caused when handbrake is left applied and the car is moved or by sticking brakes when a brake application has been made and the brakes stick when the trainline brakes are then released
The other worse option is a defective wheel. If it is just one wheel on an axle, probable defective wheel. Both wheels on one axle, brake issues.
Kids putting pennies on the rails 😂
Great video and awesome catches
And jaw tooth and that's cool Indiana train ❤😊
And jaw tooth and that's cool when train bangs couplers toghter ❤😊
Nice catch on the IOR train, that second engine was a fresh / NEW repaint!🎉🎉 Anybody catch that? Nice change from NS dirty engines😢
Cool, I didn't know that. Its always nice to see some color there
Good afternoon I enjoyed the video👍👍
Thanks London!

2 inches is supposed to be maximum flat spot before needing to be set out
@@DavidsIntro thank you!
There is an engine in the backyard that has had a flat spot for better than 6 months 😱
Good afternoon jawtooth great job today
Morning!
Great video
Delivering my LTD from Wixom Michigan... shout out for Wixom Ford Plant. I use to live there.
Again JT awesome video and watching enjoying too and enjoy the side show too AWESOME VIDEO Jaw Tooth ❤
Nice Video
hello jaw it's randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy
Those I & O locos are some fine looking units! Perfect day for trains! Fantastic video JT!

Man, great catch on the IORY JT! We get one there every now and then, but not very often.
Nice salute on the Norfolk hauling the Auto Racks.

Morning!
That's very rare to see a Chessie grain hopper. Cool find.
I think there were two of them. That reminds me of the days when I lived by the Chessie System tracks

They should put up cameras and then prosecute.

It’s because British rails are narrower than USA, so our Locomotives are to big for your rails
@@DavidBeckerSr Didnt know that. However many thanks for sharing that info.
@@seph2801 You are very welcome, how polite!
Good video jawtooth
Thanks!
Great catches Brian!
I like train videos on RUclips jawtooth 👍
Lots of square wheels and otherwise beat-up cars on these tracks - tough on the rails!
Now this is a thing that I am talking about
❤
Was one dog about to pee on the other dogs head? lol
They are just playing
Good morning I thing the brakes has been locked up on that train before flat side
Good Morning Jaw Tooth.
NICE VIDEO
Thanks
9:34...Kinda sounds like battle troops marching in unison.
[ Edit ] In addition, it's good to see a busy railway industry. It's always a good sign.
"Got another great video for you today..." Well yeah, that goes without saying, JT!
I appreciate that!
Nice video, Boss. But, Things are much more boring today. I miss the days of around 30 years ago when there were still a lot of 4-axle locomotives, rebuilt 1st generations, EMD's and U-boats, not to menition "butt-head" switchers like the one on the CET.

Steel coils probably to either Ford or GE in Louisville
I'm about to be up there too and Cincinnati Ohio
Love the video, son!
It would have been cool if the square wheels would have been on Spongebob locomotive.
Some of the newer logos are not as noisy as they used to be
Oh that's going into the yard
That would be cool to get that exact train in H.O scale -
Photo the train and then computer 3D print the dirt on the locomotives & rust + graffiti on the cars 😳
I love the Northfolk Southern black painted locomotives and logo ..
Would love to copycat that entire train in an H.O scale form
Maybe I'm goofy, did Chessie System change to CSX. ❤️📹👍🤔😳
Yes
2,400 tonnes steel coils plus the engines at 143 tonnes each
The locomotives weigh closer to 200 tons.
Awesome video. You sure got your money's worth today. Lots of action. How far are you from the Amtrak station from that site?
this is about 5 miles north of Cincinnati Union Terminal
That noise on that Trailer Train with the wheel noise are called "Flat Wheel" caused by a flat spot on that wheel.
Roll on Big O,get that juice up to lawsons in 48 hrs,,Lawson food store circa 1972 t.v ad for orange juice.
Thanks for watching my videos!
That was quick for there to already be another Norfolk southern train
Sometimes they get busy at this spot. They can run back to back with only minutes separating them
True but one thing i noticed is that rail service there seems to start right away compared to Arkansas which is where im from
Hide a few game cameras and catch the dumpers!
@ 24:33...Ooohh, so that's where the cat got her name from. Cool. 👍
Pardon my slowness on such matters. 😏
The dog, but yes. :) Ironically, Chessie the dog is named after a railroad whose logo was a kitten.
Unusually railroad service around here why i live doesn't start until late a lot of the time because of Up and Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Just watched another railfanning video from Winton Place.Found out the city of Cincinnati is gating the area off.Don't know if it's true.Let everyone knows if it's true or not.Thanks.
Wonder if that container train with the wheel flats had gone into emergency at some point and got the flats from the hard braking locking some wheels.
More likely a stuck brake causing the car to be dragged around for a while on that axle.
Are those cooling systems on the front and back of the tropicana cars? How are they powered, battery? Must to do a great job to keep a whole trim car cool. I want to get one for the side of my house.
WOW horn salute andbel
Lots of thumping wheels. More than usual.

Saving money on the wheel lathe use there! Excellent vid, Brian. Why do folks dump trash on someone else's property?
Because any time that doing something properly costs time or effort, some people will avoid that.
Nice ❤️ 👌 👍 train today i wonders if they carry flammable goods in black tanker cars wonders how they don't get hot
Yes, they do -- anything with a red hazmat placard is flammable. Yes, they get hot in the sun, but not hot enough to cause problems.
