    The Flashing yellow to dropped signal (red aspect) was mighty fine @ 9:59 in OKC. Unusual meet (with Amtrak) and a rare sighting of a dropped signal by the freight in Texarkana@ 14:43...whew almost missed that one. Thanks for the great pics!

    starting off with a Sperry Car
    0:38 CSX 550 The "Spirit of Cininatti". CSX is one of the few post-1900 American railroads to name their locomotives
    1:07 10-unit lash-up with one BNSF locomotive surrounded by Union Pacific yellow
    6:22 NS power towing the Amtrak into Roanoke and then the train leaves the NS unit behind
    10:36 a pair of two-tone gray private cars on the Lake Shore Limited. I've seen them before on Grab Bag, but I forgot who owned them
    12:24 7-unit light power move through Wichita!
    13:30 I saw those two units a few days later!
    14:33 nice to see the Texas Eagle in Texarkana!
    16:14 there's the hobo! I caught one riding in that part of a covered hopper too at the crossing just before (2-3 miles) a railyard
    17:50 wow! a three-car Brightline test train!
    21:36 this Keystone Service is already having problems if a 2nd ACS64 was placed in front of the Mteroliner cab car (which is over 50 years old)
    22:28 some rarely heard sounds of an electric passenger train starting to move
    23:02 13-car local train
    23:20 two red SW1500s
    23:28 and a caboose!

  • @tybois74
    @tybois74 2 года назад +1

    I have a probably dumb question: When they have those rail grinder trains, and there are multiple tracks (like say Elkhart or Flagstaff), why don't they do them side-by-side-by-side to get the job done faster?....or am I overthinking?

    • @thomasboese3793
      @thomasboese3793 2 года назад +3

      The rail grinding train is slower than a slow local doing pickups and set-outs. Tieing up one line at a time is workable. Tieing up both main lines at the same time would cripple the railroad. Where you have a double track, trains in both directions can be moved around the slower traffic. I live a stones toss from a major single-track line and there are days where the traffic pattern is completely weird due to the grinder doing its thing on the subdivision. In the case of single-track with passing sidings, I do not know which traffic would get priority and which would take a siding and wait.
      Dispatching has to be one interesting, ever-changing job of live 2-D chess. Remember, you're not allowed to remove pieces from the board, and you don't get to sleep on a problem overnight.
