@rockguitarist946 B&P lists 459 as a SD45-2. It was rebuilt from an SD45, should be rated 3200 HP. 455 is technically an SD40-2 in an SD45 shell, rated at 3000 HP. If you can find any original SD45 or SD45-2 these days, let me know, because they've all been modified so much.
@rockguitarist946 Oh yeah! And NS's are technically SD40-2's in an SD45-2 shell. CSX also as a few of those I think, in fact, very recently one CSX SD45-2 and an NS SD45-2 were paired together on CSAO job in New Jersey.
There is nothing on the face of this Earth that sounds better than an EMD 16-567C. Nothing. Zip. Zero. Zilch. I don't know how many times I played this video through surround sound but I imagine I had it turned up to the point where it was as loud as the actual locomotives. This has got to be one of my all time favorite videos on youtube. Have you considered making full length movies and selling them?
Superb vid, Eric! That "old Lady" Geep, still hasplenty of spunk left in her! Regarding SD-452's, in 1987 Wisconin Central bought used SD-45,s for mainline power with the3,600 h.p. engine. Their shop cut down the h.p. rating to 3,200 h.p. and the result is that got a lot of :bang for the buck" and prevented any further crank-shaft problems which was a design flaw when they were first introduced.
Woahh!! at 10:15, awesome thottle up of the GP9!! Thanks for this video, I love the GP9 Sound, this engines are the mother model of EMD-GM 319 series in Spain, and 319 locomotives, are very importants in my "railfan life"
Because shortlnes tend to do more industry switching and do so with 2 man crews....visibility becomes a greater issue. In addition some railroads have seen a trend where lawsuits involving grade crossing accidents may have attorneys bring up the fact that the accident "could" have been prevented if the railroad has greater visibility. Also, in many cases the Class I railroads chopped the nose before they sold them to the shortline. (For example, all of ATSF's GP7u locomotives)
i live right by the buffalo and pittsburgh yard. its so big and you can see b&p,csx,up,amtrak,gmtx,cp,cn,bnsf,ns,soo,conrail and thats about it if not a lot more you should check it out
@@zuel660 I wasn't 100% sure on the rail weight but I know the A&E is 4 axle territory and probably always will be especially since the traffic is pretty light
@@ljones121 some nights it is, but I've also seen 60-70 car trains on the line this year....they even stalled out on the grade coming up to Kane one night this summer!
brilliant video. beautiful production, congratulate you for bringing the fans who do not have the aportunidade candles and near the recently could only candles in pictures. take this opportunity to invite you to a turn in the past and honor my first video. show where the ge U10B locomotive passing through my town. thanks
Hi, Eric, Thank you for responding. Have you heard or seen that Progress Rail Systems, i.e. CAT, has now manufactured PRV 43 Units with 3,600 h.p. CAT Engines? A railfan down in AL has been videographing them over the past year. They are sticking them in SD-60E car bodies. Wonder if that is replace the original SD-45!
Another great video presentations. Those hors are fabulous on the B&P . By the way; to your knowledge, what is the load & customer for the PSR HT hoppers at the end of the video? Love you vids following up on as many as I can find
Anyone have any idea what happened to the caboose ? It sat at the foster brook siding for a while. Then the Bradford yard, then was used a bit. But it’s been a few years since I last seen it. Did it get torched ?
I love the B&P. Their wide variety of power is quite fascinating.
Old EMD's are the veterans of the railway, but they will never give up.
@o00o00ozy The two SD45's that remain on the NYSW are still 3600HP V20 645's. They have only been upgraded to -2 electronics.

I recently saw one a couple months ago but it was an M&M engine
Excellent video.I always like to see locals switches.So much history in this.
DANG ERIC. This is just stunning. That Geep sounded incredible... couldn't stop re-playing those throttlin scenes. AMAZING video dude!!

I LOVE the sound of that GP9!
When I heard the air horn on the Geep I was like..
You've got to be kidding me?
Talk about a jolted wake up call!!
The WC locomotive guy was a damned genius. Hell of a guy.
Great trains, great horns, and great video!

Very nicely done, the GP9 sounds great!
Train sounds... So soothing to me. They remind me of Camp Kon-O-Kwee.
Great EMD 567 sound and is same as our railroad engines, but I never saw they play with the throttle! Always idle when they pass-by.
Excellent video, Eric! Man that GP9 sounds so amazing! And the horn on it as well. WOW!
Great job. Love the sounds of EMD's.
Ah, the mighty 645. Love that sound.
WOW! I didn't know that they still have a SD40T-2 and SD45's!
SD45s are gone
Very well may have been my buddy Ron Stafford at the throttle of one of those trains. He recently retired from the B&P.
awesome video and that station salamanca has the same name as one on which i use to film trains here in mexicio jejej thumbs up and favourites!!!!

Heck of a good rs-5t!
567...music to my ears.
Awesome video dude! Love that tunnel motor!
in Bradford we have gp40s and gp38s and sometimes a gp9 sneaks in
i love buffalo & pittsburg train & rochester & sothern train & louisiana & delta
@@ChristianNoel_Likes_Trains I catch these trains
great catches and video of these freights and switching
All B&P and R&S Trackage is on former B&O territory, except for the new sidings and lines that have been built after the B&O

who knew b&p had an awesome taste in power
great vid
nice video and beautiful power train. bower is power train is beautiful look and listen train song" C")

Welcome to the real railroad.
looks like a gp18 to me. look at the fans
@rockguitarist946 They could be SD45's that were modified to SD45-2 status.
Nice !
I love GP9s.They have the same 567 as the E/F Series locomotives does.How old is this one?
Great vid! I wish the B&P would assign SD's to the A&E line!!
To heavy, I believe the A&E is 90k rail so 4 axle only
@@ljones121 it's either new ribbon rail or 130lb PS everywhere I've seen...🤷

love those GP-7' or 9'?! :P sorry european.
I see number 626 regularly in the Rochester area.
Those 45-2s have the angled radiators of SD45s. How does that work out?

ha these trains pass by my house
My roster booklet says these SD45-2s have 3,600hp which means they have the 20 cylinder engines right?
they are sd40-2s in sd45 shells
devin baker some of these are legit sd45s
Another great video presentations. Those hors are fabulous on the B&P . By the way; to your knowledge, what is the load & customer for the PSR HT hoppers at the end of the video? Love you vids following up on as many as I can find
Not sure, I think there is a place in Erie which takes those cars.
Anyone have any idea what happened to the caboose ? It sat at the foster brook siding for a while. Then the Bradford yard, then was used a bit. But it’s been a few years since I last seen it. Did it get torched ?
nicesssssssssssss
Is 626 still in service? Does it still have both control stands?
Yes sir!!!!!!
8:07 faints a chessie system box car with no graffiti!
catlover 2345 still sitting there 😂 way before I was born and I’m 20.
What kinda horn dose that sd45 have
I wondered the same thing
@@josherickson6862 it a P3 horn
abandoned train track to the right
The gp9 isn't in Bradford anymore apparently it's up at gernatts
your thinking about 204. 626 is a gp18-1 now it in Buffalo
devin baker oh Ok I couldn't tell I was driving and it was behind hoppers do all I saw was a half side and top view
its ok we all mistake stuff
devin baker yup it's especially hard to id stuff while driving lol and its on the passenger and
