Railroads abandon tracks no longer used. Amazing footage and how I am modeling it also.

🕺🏻ABOUT DJ: DJ is a locomotive engineer for CSX Railroad since 1999. He has built dozens of layouts, gave presentations for model railroaders, is a RUclipsr, licensed drone pilot, and a great father.
I had a model train set like this growing up as a kid, and my cat was mesmerized by it.
Love that old abandoned bridge. Oh the stories it could tell.
Like your Videos. Good tips on scenery. I know you’re a CSX engineer. But do you film other parts of PA ? I’m curious if Kittaning has a similar look of trains running through the town as McKeesport? I’m wanting to model the Pennsylvania Rail Road. Though I live in the Cleveland OH area. Actually about 2 miles from the CSX yard by W130th and Chevrolet plant.
If I model a abandoned spur i will cut the switch from the main bc that’s what CSX normally does Also when I install a new CSX crossing install the bells will always stick out the side cus that’s how CSX does
I built about two feet of abandoned branch roadbed, complete with a few ties left in the cinders and depressions where the ties were removed. I also "paved over" the old crossing and just left a little rail showing on either side of the road (appropriately dark brown rusty). It now looks like the State Road fixed the highway up before the railroad tore up the branch.
I do like the water between the edge of the layout and the backdrop; a lot of depth perception 👍🏾🤔
I am assuming that the dock and barges shown at
Hi DJ, You probably already know this and I don't mean to be long winded, but for your subscribers who do not, the ex-P&WV bridge in Connellsville ( timestamp
Hey DJ are you single?
Nice segment DJ, I have an abandoned crossing on my RR (by choice LOL) and like your concept. I also always seem to pick out something cool in your live footage, this time those awesome piers on the abandoned bridge. Sad I cannot get to Colorado to hang and meet in person, but other travel plans got in the way. Keep up the GREAT work
Hey DJ, I'm surprised you don't paint your rails. Is that an intentional choice, is it a much later step in the process?
DJ excellent, looks fantastic, great job
that bridge in connelsvolle i walk over that every summer, definitely very scary , as i got off it one of the ties fell into the river 😳
Nice upgrade, DJ. Trust your favorite Engineer folks!
Nice video again dj as always good information and always work safe
Draw or swing bridges left open.
Hi DJ. Even your abandoned areas look great. I thought that first shot with the crumbling building was still the real drone video!
Looks good, don't see abandoned tracks very often on model railroads.I'm looking forward to part 2.
Where was the abandoned rail bridge and barges at?
Another great video! Great tips for abandoned track
