    Welcome to Florida Brother,I too was a brakemen on the SCL back in the 80's.This is the beautiful SW Line from Durant wye to the north and went all the down to Venice to the south. A lot of track has been removed. Back in the day they kept the RRB circus train in Venice and this line went right next too Tropicana juice plant. The Tropicana juice train used to take this route to avoid the crew change point at Yeoman yard.M-force has footage of the old iron girder bridge just N of willow. Thank you for the wonderful video.

    Brings back many fond memories when I was a Conductor/Brakeman back in the mid 90's.
    I miss riding in the Alco RS3 #1633.

    Is it just me or does that loco bell sound a lot less brittle than the modern equivalents?

    • @DelayInBlockProductions
      @DelayInBlockProductions  6 лет назад +3

      The bell was on the fuel tank, far away from the camera. That's why it sounded so quiet.

    • @officialmcdeath
      @officialmcdeath 6 лет назад +2

      Delay In Block Productions pretty standard positioning - was referring to tone rather than volume but my hearing may be playing tricks. Thanks anyway for your thoughts on this.

    • @DelayInBlockProductions

      officialmcdeath Oh, I understand what you mean now.

    • @officialmcdeath
      @officialmcdeath 6 лет назад

      Delay In Block Productions that said, from what I've seen so far on YT, there appears to be a bell on both sides of every loco, the operative one being on the left side in the direction of travel - is that a fair statement?

      Actually the bell on our 1835 and 1822 sit just behind the lead pilot.

    What an awful horn.

    • @SwindellSteamWorks
      @SwindellSteamWorks 6 лет назад +1

      Hey, it does the job. I certainly like it. And I have to deal with it since I"m one of their active crew members.

      I love the horn. single chime horns sound so unique. Just my opinion

      TRAINMAN K something unique can also be disappointing
