      @@KutWrite Maybe, maybe not. There are roller bearing wheel sets that fit in trucks that were originally friction bearings. The journal box covers are supposed to be removed if going thru interchange but as these are in plant cars, that isn't mandatory. And with paint spray being around, keeping the covers on would help protect the bearings.

    This was a great catch. I love "critters" - the littlest locomotives. There was a really interesting one that sat for a while at the old Landmark grain elevator in Columbus, OH - it actually had a jackshaft and a single powered axle! Sadly, when Landmark abandoned the elevator, the locomotive was left to rot (and eventually removed).

    This is the old Cincinnati northern RR. PC welded the rail back in the 1970s. I caught a CR train , north bound between Carlisle and Germantown in 1979. The CN branched off the NYC in carlisle,then went 1 mile to a crossing with the B&O cincy-toledo main. CR ran the last train on this line about 1983 when they tore up the line north of Germantown. (farmersville,west alexandria,lewisburg,west machchester(PRR crossing)etc,,, Dupps bought the line, but Chessie did not want a diamond, so they built a connection(i think there was an old right of way connection in place)to Chessie and ripped out the diamond. I have many photos at the diamond of BO/CR. Lewisburg bought the old depot and moved it to a nearby park. West Alexandria depot is in place.

    As a lifelong rail fan, my dad and I were in a Railroad club when I was younger down in N.C. There were a couple of 45 ton engines & and eventually the got a bit larger one. Progress forward quite a few years and I was driving trucks and eventually carried one of these same locomotives (25 ton GE) about 150 miles to the club dad and I used to be in. Probably one of my coolest trips as a truck driver. I have been up through The Buckeye quite a bit few the years and have seen a good number of old engines like this one and a few others as well. Nice video btw.

It happened around here, never did hear what the courts decided. But Conrail (at that time) put up a warning bell if a train was coming. Kids were jumping off the bridge into the river.

    Also if you ever get to Pennsylvania, in Hershey at the West Hershey Plant they have a track mover which they use to stage cars of ingredients on two spur lines on Hershey property. Norfolk Southern delivers full cars and picks up the empties. Hershey employees make switches about 3 to 4 times a day depending on the amount of product they produce, using a two person crew. NS delivers full cars I believe every other day. It may be something you would be interested in. The plant is located at 1033 Old West Chocolate Ave. in Hershey, Pa. The main NS line runs parallel to that road.

    In Hamilton Ohio, I had to stop at a crossing for a service line between two halves of a steel plant. I was at the crossing arms as the switch engine pulled the cars past. Larger ingots of glowing red steel. You could sure feel the heat radiating from them and see slag or hot metal dropping off to the side.

    Love it! Thanks for this. I'm in the habit of checking out the locations of these videos on google maps and streetview (since I'm on the other side of the world and am unlikely to ever visit them in person). After the recent Franklin street-running videos, I naturally followed the (now disjointed) track north and noticed the Dupps factory with its little GE switcher and wondered about the operations there. I even noticed the gate across the truss bridge and thought perhaps the Dupps trains never ventured out of town. So it's good to know that it does occasionally get a decent run.
    That's got to be about the quietest US train I've ever seen (or heard). I get so used to bells and the usual 2 long, 1 short 1 long horn blasts on every US railroad video, that it becomes very noticeable when those sounds are missing. Surprising there wasn't really any warning when entering the road crossing. Yes, it was dead slow, but still. :)

    Mr. Tooth...ya dun it agin!! The smallest, most obscure shorty short lines with the most eclectic motive power, doing what they do best.
    Got real lucky on this one, beins how they only switch ever so often.
    I love how they paint the big square thingies right on the flatcars....my guess they own the cars or "the big boys" wouldn't tolerate that. So....what are those big square-ish thingies? Look pretty hefty.
    Thanx for hunting them down, good job J.T. ✌😁

    I live in Germantown Ohio and I’ve seen this train leave Dupps every here and their Now my question is are they ever going to run the tracks on the original line as in reuse the tracks and rebuild the part of the line they removed? Some people I know have told me it was originally owned by Cincinnati Northern and ran up to Michigan I am also really big into the Dayton/Middletown areas history I’m only 17 and I wish I could go back to see when the track was still heavily active also they very rarely sound their horn and very rarely have a flag man they use those tracks once a month and at 22:10 next to those wood barns is the post office where the original railroad depot was located and that covered bride is on Little twin Creek that bridge is unique it’s the one of the only bowstring bridges in the USA also the big trestle is on Big twin Creek

    just this second watched an upload by *1960gambit* it looks the same train perhaps, i am no expert, the opposite actually) his excellent upload showed the little train arriving at a siding/cut where to long low cars were parked, some 5 miles from the plant aboce i'm sure. As the little train arrived it was great watching it hook up free off some stiff brakes, then wend its way through some stunning countryside, then over one bridge, where it stopped , (i took a couple screen shots) and lastly before it arrived at the phacility, it went over a stunning Trestle Bridge.... yeah a new train channel to compliment his fellow enthusiasts like yourself which bring a veritable feast of entertainment for the rest of us couch potatoes...
