Everybody else shows random footage of trains going by. You give us a documentary. Bravo!! Well done.
Thanks Don.. As always your words are appreciated and enjoyed.
Yes, I really enjoy the narration. OUTSTANDING.
Thanks, Man.. I'm glad you liked it.
I went to Altoona back in October and it is truly a wonderful place to railfan. I saw lot of ns dash 9s that are waiting to be, or are rebuilt, ns 1074 and 1801, and a rare c39-8e. Also saw some ns sd40-3s before their bodies and cabs were installed. Also saw locomotives from wrecks like ns 1832 and ns 6997. High hoods, a csx, and many more!
AC. You have the voice that. is easy Ito listen. and as you describe what we are watching it all works nicely sincroniseed well. thanks AC
My hometown! Thank you for sharing.
A fantastic vid, Bro! Seeing the Juniata shops is a real treat for any foamer. Great catch on the NS exec F unit. Those SD70ACUs are very fancy, I saw one a couple months ago down here, but didn't get to film it. Thanks for sharing AC!
Thanks Trav.. Altoona's always a fun place to railfan.. No doubt about it.. Waitin' patiently for your next vid.
Great news! The two f units are saved by the Reading & Northern Railroad in Pennsylvania and the other 2 are saved by the Aberdeen, Carolina and Western Railroad in North Carolina. Which means they’re both separately saved to both tourist railroads and to be used for excursions too!
Great video, and a lot of stuff covered. Old video but worth its weight in gold.
Thank you for showing those historical videos. Excellent video AC. I really enjoyed watching.
Thanks Hans..
Another home run video AC. Really enjoyed those Conrail videos. Looking forward to more!
Thanks, Scott.. I'm still surprised how much my video resembles yours!
Excellent video AC! Love the presentation and the history added to it. Ive only been to the Altoona area once and I hope to get there again very soon. Its amazing out there. Beautiful scenery too.
Thanks, Man.. Yeah, Altoona's railfan heaven.
Nice really nice I like more narrative it made it feel like I was there. 👏🏽
Thanks, Man!
The 2 F Units are now at the R&N in Pennsylvania while the other 2 are now in the Aberdeen, Carolina and Western Railroad in North Carolina as well. They’re both separately saved to both tourist railroads just to be safe and preserved for excursions too!
20:26 20:27 Just like the one we saw back at the turntable
10:39 TURNTABLE!
10:39 20:27 TURNTABLE! TURNTABLE! TURNTABLE! TURNTABLE! HOW CAN WE TURN THESE HISTORIC STEAM ENGINES AROUND??! TURNTABLE!
EXCELLENT. Another great video A.C.
Thanks Allen
Very well done; I couldn’t put it down A++
Thanks Robert.
Well this is yet another fantastic video i enjoyed watching it
Thanks a lot Alexander.. I'm glad that you liked it
You're welcome
Great Video!
Thanks Guys.
Took me a while to sit down long enough for this one AC, but it was well worth waiting for! As for Photobomb Frank, I am my own worst enemy. I have one video posted and darned if I didn't do the same thing. My girl does my filming for me and I seem to get my "Ugly Mug" in the way most of the time somehow.
Anyway, thanks for the great shots, wonderful information, and of course the links to the videos that you added. Also, I love the way you incorporated those vids into your production. I must say, "Excellence at it's best". Thanks brother! Cheers, Dan
Thanks, Dan.. Yeah, Frank has bombed me several times so now I'm just starting to get used to it.. He should know better though!! Cheers!!
Amazing video!!!
Thanks Tyler.
Good, as always,
Thanks Walter.
20:18 What a special catch! 2 black CIT 'CEFX' switchers, that’s what we saw today!
This was one of the better ones you've done. I hope you're staying warm and out of the weather.
Thanks, Jim.. It's actually not too bad here today.. In the 30s but it's snowing a lot :-(
We had your snow last night. Dumped 2 more inches. Temps will struggle to get to +15 this afternoon... We have some wind... the WX Services says wind chill will be -5 to -10. Only 60 more days till spring. It can't come too soon!
Some sort of warm up to the 40's later this week.
I feel for you.. All I can say is stay warm, Springtime is on the way..
Can't come too soon! Been watching Wide World of Trains... he does live RUclips feeds every day in the late afternoons from Dunkirk NY . Talk about a glutton for punishment... he does CSX and NS ( probably the same NS traffic you see a day or two later ).
Yeah, a lot of it.. Have family in Buffalo.. My condolences to them for it..
Awesome video! I like going Gallitzin and Cresson!
Me too! I don't get there as much as I'd like to.. Maybe this year..
11:45 EMD #5095 is an ex-Southern Railway GP38-2 high hood, now retrofitted with the brand new admiral cab.
0:47 The Wulsburo and Corneng Raylrod
Heyyyy get out of my territory lol great vid I usually get out to Tyrone/Altoona area each week
Lucky you.. I'm hoping to get out there again in May to see what's new at Cresson Steel
Good Job AC you got Frank in this one last video you missed him.
Yeah, that's funny.. Thanks Donald
22:45 Approaching the Hollidaysburg Car Shop...
AC. Does the tunnel between North Bergen N J been modified?
@Trains21 Oops! Its not "A link to the RUclips channel", its "A link to the video is in the description", can you fix that please?
6:25 6:24 Sought-after
16:35 this loco has the year I was born on it XD aahhh no not the Texas star clipper 36:49 :(
HaHa.. Cool!!
14:19 And in use byteen 89
17:48 do you use your head to drill?
Just a local-yokel tip... DeGol is pronounced "Dee-GALL" :) also, the old Hollidaysburg car shop railroad re/build work you see is from Curry Rail, which is a part of Central Hydraulics/Curry Supply, another local business. It has no relation to the DeGol organization, except that it shares a building with the DeGol Lumber yard and 7-D Window Manufacturing. Great video, otherwise!!! I love to see people exploring my stomping grounds!!
Thanks for the kind words but I never implied that Degol and Curry Rail were connected.. Never seeing the name before, I took a humorous guess.. Wasn't intended to be taken seriously but I do appreciate you giving me the correct pronunciation.
Trains21 no worries! Just an observation from a friend. I work with both companies and as an alumna of Saint Francis University, where the DeGol family has a prominent connection/presence, it's in the fiber of the Altoona area.
My young boys LOVE watching your videos... keep up the excellent work!! (And if you ever need anything in the Altoona/Cresson area, I'm willing to lend a hand where I can!)
Very much appreciated.. I mean that.. We'll be hitting that area up again around May.. Wanna get the signal bridge at Fostoria/Bellwood before the Position lights are gone and westward to Johnstown.. If you're available you might want to join us..
Trains21 Keep me posted! I'll likely be available, out on leave for #3. Not many female railfans out there like me, but I will need an excuse to get the boys out when the weather breaks. Thank you!
Will do.. By all means bring the boys.. The more the merrier.. As it gets closer I'll send you a PM with all of the details.. Thanks.
15:09 And remanufactured diesel-electric locomotives and their associated components.
Would you be able to get close to the hump yard in allentown PA?
Close enough to touch it
Is your intro from R&N 2531?
It surely is
CP 1019 was saved by the stourbridge line and will be come a black pensy f7!!
Nice.. That's good to hear.
20:26 20:27
11:45 20:18
How do you get in by the turn table at the shops
It's not hard but I couldn't give you accurate directions
Trains21 ok give me a link to them in the comments
This turntable has now been replaced entirely
Really?? Thanks, I didn't know that..
@@Trains21 If you go to facebook, look for the page, Altoona Works, it is a daily photo log of the NS Altoona Roundhouse Repair shop. Updated daily
NJT 4218!!!!!!!

67V? I thought the trash trains were 62V and 63V
They probably still are.. Also, sometimes symbols change.
