    Hello, I used to live in Ashland & was a member of the F.D. & Rescue Squad. A long time ago. The Henry Clay Inn caught on fire. 6:14 we never used to have cars get stuck on the tracks before. I come back to visit from time to time, but so much has changed, & my home isn't my home anymore. Since I left & joined THE NAVY! & came back a lot has changed. We had a car get stuck on the tracks in Doswell, Va. & the cross guards were coming down, but that was from the frame of the car shorting out the circuit on the tracks. We used to have people (mostly college students) get hit by the train. Cross Bros. Grocery had some of the best chicken. I picked the train from Ashland Station one day & went to D.C. to see my sister. I took the train from Boston to Orlando one time to see my parents. Both times was fun. Thanks for taking me back home one more time.

      His son was transgender and got murdered by a group of people for it and thats why he dresses like that amd rides around. To raise awareness.

    Hello, I'm from Sao Paulo - Brazil, I really enjoy contemplating for a few minutes, this region of Ashland, through the cameras of Railfan, I feel a nice feeling for this nice city, such as the city where I was born in the interior of Sao Paulo, Brazil . I really admire the cyclist, who daily does his walk and also in winter with the children riding snowman next to the train line.
    Thank you very much for this opportunity, I hope the cameras will never be removed.

    I see the sign on the Ashland Station when I take AutoTrain North once a year and have taken pics of the town going thru because it's so totally "Virginia" with the brick buildings and so forth. Ya' know from the train-view; Virginia is loaded with brick buildings, to include brick homes and even some churches out in the rural areas. .. So I just discovered the live cam yesterday and then this great video which is full of interesting stuff! Like seeing an Amtrak train come to a hard stop to avoid smashing a stuck car.

    Hello, Mr Jersey! Greetings from Brazil. Thank you for showing new angles of this wonderful Ashland. One day, God willing I'll get a tourist visa and I'll be able to visit this city. Almost every day I see the cameras in the station. A hug! Sorry for my english, I'm using the translator, unfortunately I have not yet learned the language.

    Nice view of Ashland’s Amtrak there in the beginning! I found Ashland first on Virtual Railfan on Thanksgiving Day 2018, but have added that and several other VR feeds to my favorite list since. Very nice people on Ashland live stream. Eventually I’d like to visit all of their US cam locations, and watch the trains. Thanks for the feature of a bit of the town for other people interested in Ashland, like me!
    PS: I don’t know if you know this, but I’d stay away from the term ‘foamer.’ It’s pretty derogatory for people who love to watch trains. We use the term, “Railfan” instead.
    *On a final note:* Rails to trails in my part of NJ is a tragedy. I miss the sound of the train horns off in the distance, and our RR crossing that used to be in town. Plus the walking paths are unkempt, dangerous to travel, and completely unused in my neighborhood.
    New Jersey needs more rail for both passenger and freight to help reduce the amount of vehicular travel, as our insurance rates are astronomically high compared to other states. Plus, we are an overcrowded state in general. Specifically S. Jersey, since N. Jersey has a nice array of passenger and intermodal freight trains that interconnect. All my part of NJ has ‘somewhat’ locally is the Atco line (which won’t be restored to service until May) and the Trenton Station’s NY Penn line, which is over 50 miles from where I live.

    That train you claim to be Silver Star after talking to Kent is incorrect. 91 doesn’t stop at the station, plus silver star has sleepers and a baggage car.

      @njteech  4 года назад

    • @Southeast_Trains
      @Southeast_Trains 4 года назад

      Jersey Johnnie well it’s important because you make it appear as if Ashland is a long distance station for those trains. May confuse Amtrak passengers who may not know that. I know I’m being a stickler and I think you have a great video! But just for future, long distance do not stop in Ashland, only northeast regionals.
