- A look at the Orin Line in the Wyoming Powder River Basin on June 20, 1990. We start East of Donkey Creek an catch a pair of Burlington Northern empty coal trains headed for the mines. Next we find a perch near Belle Ayr Mine where we see the Belle Ayr Helpers assist a loaded coal train out of Caballo Rojo Mine. Intermodal hotshot train No. 91 makes an appearance there as well. The we follow CNW C40-8 8507 southward from the old Antelope Siding to Reno, WY with some great sound and pace scenes. Finally we catch some action around Black Thunder Junction and Reno as coal trains are shuffled into and out of the mines.
I WORKED THIS LINE FOR 19 YEARS ...EVERY SHOT HERE I COULD TELL EXACTLY WHERE IT WAS FILMED FROM ...AWESOME VID THANKS
This is a great video, thanks for sharing.
Boy what those guys would've given for all the triple and quadruple track that's there now! Hard to believe some sections of that mainline were once single track with passing sidings.
Very Cool Video of yestery3😊
Great job on your video I enjoyed watching Thanks for sharing
Cheers Ron
Guessing the 2 helpers are SD40-2s. Specially painted tank car between them is interesting. No idea what that's about unless they somehow refuel from it?
Funny how 20 years after this video, the line was at triple and quadruple track capacity……and then came the slow decline from the war on coal. It’s a sad sight now with less than half the trains it once had.
Those early GE units on both UP and CNW sounded like Alcos
THEY SHOULD'VE HAD SOME SD9'S ON THESE VIDEOS!
ALOT OF THEM WERE CB&Q AND GN! K3'S!!
