THANKS for putting this out there! :) This is the 1st., & I'm confident - not the last of your videos, for me to see! :) It was GREAT! :) It would be great if I was closer to all of you, to join you sometime - but I'm WAY North-west of you, in Saskatchewan (north of Montana :) ....I too - as ALL of YOU :) GREATLY ENJOY TRAINS!!! :) Dow Taylor :)
Definitely looks like it was a great day. It’s people like you who make our world better, bringing a bunch of people who enjoy similar hobbies together.
Congrats on 30K Brother Rowan! Very happy to see you guys had a great time. If you ever get the chance, come on down to SoCal, and we'd love to show you all the good railfanning spots. All the best!
That empty coal train was definitely a "HEAVYWEIGHT" even not being loaded! Very impressive w 4 LEADERS, 1 MID DPU plus 3 more towards the end! Lots of horsepower running the rails. Nice catches and thanks for sharing this video ROWAN!
@@RailfanRowan I'm a BIG FAN of your channel and you never disappoint! You always bring the BEST to the table! Keep up the AMAZING work my friend and I'm viewing this from the 1st state of DELAWARE.
@@RailfanRowan You should come to route 460 just past where general mahone hwy and Waverly in the town Waverly intersection and the tracks are right next to the road and the NS AND AMTRAK TRAINS ARE FLYING IM TALK 50- 80 MPH MAN ITS CRAZY
Great to see you and another new rail fan video of yours. Really good catches of the trains and your usual fantastic job of narration. God bless you friend and thanks for sharing this with us all.
it was cool for you to come up to ashland,va i live here in richmond,va and i have videos of trains up there in ashland so congrats for 30,000 subscribers dude and keep the videos up
G'day from Down Under Rowan, yet another great video mate, love watching Ashland on the VRF cams, first one I ever watched was La Plata, in Missouri. Congratulations on reaching 30 000 subscribers, a considerable achievement, well done. Love ya, J.
Great video as always Rowan. If you’re ever in the area of Berea, Ohio, that’s a great spot. A CSX and an NS main right next to each other, the place sees around 100+ trains a day.
@@RailfanRowan If you get up that way get hold of me, I'm close (Akron). If it's the right day of the week I can show you some spots on the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic. But if you come up for NKP 765 in September you're probably going to be disappointed, the local cops block off just about every decent photo location in the Valley from the fans because the CVSR hates the fans; this is seriously true. If you're not buying a ticket they don't want anything to do with you, even if you bought a ticket for an earlier train. You should have stayed in Ashland another hour for the Southbound Auto-Train, usually through there 5 to 5:30 or so. Unidentified Amtrak train at 8:00 was almost certainly #81, Southbound "Silver Star".
Terrific catches! Terrific to see a lot of railfans railfanning at Ashland on a Saturday with beautiful weather. I like how railfans from North Carolina are railfanning in other places besides in North Carolina.
Awesome! I just left Ashland. Go 1-2 times a week. Great times. Should have gone to Doswell to the Buckingham Branch yard and Diamond from the old RF&P and C&O crossing. Happy rail fanning.
What a nice suprise! A video from railfan rowan! Congrats rowan on 30,000 subs. Looked like a great rally. Im having to work 6days a week, otherwise i would have been there. I hope to meet you some day. God bless you!

I went to college in Ashland. I was a railfan way back in the early 1980s. I have some cool pictures from back then. I have a good one of Amtrak going through in a snowstorm there.
@@RailfanRowan Pro Tip: Learn their rules well. EVERYTHING is about safety from getting a cup of water at the cooler to switching out a train to operating a locomotive... always remember that! You can thank me later. If you have any questions about anything I'm here for you good luck my friend.
Always more fun with a crowd. Wish I could have been there. Still great to be able to watch the rally on video. I did manage to see y'all when you walked in front of the VR camera at Ashland and waved. That was great. I hope you're thinking about what to do at 40,000 haha
This is Dan's Railfan Adventures, but I wish I could've gone. Just a trip that was the next weekend happened, and we were tight on money and time. Next rally I will be at though!!!
For your 40K Subscriber Railfan rally you should come to Fairport, NY there’s about 30-35 trains during the day! Freights, Locals, Amtraks, And lots of cool catches to be seen everyday! Your best bet would be the “Fairport Train Viewing Platform”. There’s also tons of places to eat in a walking distance! You should definitely check it out! Also I live in the area and have many videos from there so if you want check those out to see what it’s like!
Looks like a great time! Suggestion: Come up to railfan on the CSX Chicago Line in NY, the CSX equivalent of NS's Pittsburgh Line. Lots of fast, scheduled trains!

From a UPRR conductor, have fun, be safe, and i appreciate you all respecting our passage by keeping a safe distance. Continue to railfan safely!!!
Thank you so much! We appreciate you and your enthusiasm as well, you stay safe out there too man!

I have been watching your videos for many years and they are all awesome.

Since PSR the trains have become giants!! Not complaining just very interesting! Love the video Rowan!!
Me either that was probably the longest I've put eyes one
That's great the way most of the train drivers will acknowledge their railfans... Great stuff thanks for posting
Nobody's wabes at me
Greetings from Tucson.
Good railfanning with you yet again Rowan
Great to see you and another new rail fan video of yours. Really good catches of the trains and your usual fantastic job of narration. God bless you friend and thanks for sharing this with us all.
Your welcome CC, as always!!
To Christ be the Glory
Awesome catches Rowan! I also caught CSX Q422 @ Muirkirk & it had a reactivated C40-8W trailing.
What a great family activity, I was introduced to it by my dad 60 years ago and now my children are enjoying it, including model railroading !
Awesome! ....as it should be!!
it was cool for you to come up to ashland,va i live here in richmond,va and i have videos of trains up there in ashland so congrats for 30,000 subscribers dude and keep the videos up

@@RailfanRowan yeah no problem I saw you on the live cam
I wish I could've come... I'd be the only one from MA though.
Great video as always Rowan. If you’re ever in the area of Berea, Ohio, that’s a great spot. A CSX and an NS main right next to each other, the place sees around 100+ trains a day.
Berea is on the list!!! Thanks!!
@@RailfanRowan Looking forward to it :) of course
Maybe we can meet each other at Conway one day
@@RailfanRowan If you’re able to come, in a couple days on the 30th of June there’s gonna be a big Railfan Meetup :)

Tropicana previously had a Designated Train but due to PSR,👎it was Added to another Daily Train.
Yeah I remember that.... Sadly Ive only seen it once, in 2017, I should post this video!!!thanks!
The Tropicana Juice Train. Check out Distant Signal. Danny Harmon has a video on the old Juice Train.

Ahh thank you for the suggestion, I hope to have inside details on this very soon
