As at 51 year CSX & predecessors employee with the final 20 years having the Baltimore Division including the Keystone Sub as my territory - WELL DONE - It should get a RUclips Emmy for Railroad Production.
This movie just blew me away. I have biked the GAP trail for decades and I always enjoy the scenery of the Laurel Highlands and the amazing rumble of the CSX trains along the Youghiogheny River...you often cannot see the trains while biking but you can hear them as if you were next to them. Seeing the landscape from the air provides a new and stunning view of the Laurel Highlands. I live near Pittsburgh and this area is pretty much my backyard. It's a too welk-kept secret. Notice the homes in the movie. Nothing extravagant or fancy but they are almost always well kept and neat. Cumberland, Meyersdale and Rockwood are charming towns worth spending some time in. Those folks on the Capitol Limited sure got their money's worth. Decades ago the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie and the Western Maryland used to run trains from Pittsburgh to Ohiopyle for day trips. The Capitol Limited uses CSX tracks from Washington to Pittsburgh and uses a track that runs under Oakland (where the University of Pittsburgh is) to connect to the Norfolk Southern main line to continue to Chicago. The view of the Horseshoe Curve at Mance is every bit as impressive as the Horseshoe Curve in Altoona. You deserve an Oscar for this. Well done.
Amen. Thank you! Yes we were blown away by how stunning the highlands are just east of Connellsville to Garrett. Just amazing. We intend to bike to Indian Creek sometime this fall to get the viaduct there!!! Very hard to get to that spot ! As you noted. So many beautifully maintained homes in the hills!!!
@@AcmeCinematography Thanx for the kind words and hard work. The Keystone Subdivision ought to have an excursion train, but given PSR and that there is only one track in a few sections, this is unlikely. I think CSX has a long range plan to double track through Pittsburgh (there is a tunnel on the South Side that has one track). A third track for Amtrak would be ideal. Thanx again!
Absolutely Beautiful Drone video and very informative too, I could feel my blood pressure dropping and great music also, you knocked it out of the park.
WOW, just wow. This could be the best production I have seen. I just love the footage, train sound and music. Superb! Thank you very much for sharing this video!
Absolutely Amazing! Even better than all your others, and those have been incredible. The Cumberland church scene with the organ music, was so well done.
This is just a wonderful video. Absolutely wonderful. I love the fall foliage on Sand Patch. Too bad you see nothing but GE’s, but it’s not your fault. Ahhh, thank God. I see an SD40 square cab at Glade City.
Amazing video everything about it is breathtaking, especially the music. My father and I would drive as many of the mountain roads along the subdivision from Cumberland past Connellsville to chase trains when I was growing up. I think the craziest was an autorack that we got to see leave Cumberland that we chased into Sand patch, Meyersdale, Rockwood, Markleton, Casselman, and into Confluence in the same day - the signals must've been on our side that day. Seeing so many of those places from the drone point of view was mind boggling and brought me to tears a few times. Thanks for this masterpiece!!
Just going to add on to the praise, thee best video's on you tube. You are a Rembrandt of video production, drone, scenes, music. Excellent! Glad your back.
Thank you!!! And thanks for the nice comments on the “non” railroad opening. Cumberland is an amazing city and it is an honor to show the steeples!!!!!
@AcmeCinematography It's funny you say that, because I'm a foamer, and I want my trains. 99.9% of the time, I want my trains with nothing else. No overlaid text, and no dramatic music. I just want the sight and sound of a railroad, and that's more than enough. You, however, are that 0.01% of the population that adds music and text 👌👍 It works, and works very well. It's a joy to watch your presentations because you've got this superpower 😄 Keep up the great work, man! I sincerely look forward to seeing more of your work back here on RUclips 👍👏👏
@@AcmeCinematography Also: do you have an FB or something I can send pictures to you? I’d love to show you the video running on my small home theater 💯
THANK you.. that means a lot.. yeah most other train videos are hard to stomach with all the narration and music that takes AWAY from what you are watching. I think it best to let the images speak for themselves, thus very very very discrete text.
Fantastic cinematography with beautiful music. This video immediately went to my favorites. Thanks for all of your hard work in making this production.
excellent job. Originally from Mt Pleasant now living in Va. used to go fishing with my dad along the casselman ohio pyle confluence etc. great shots of "home" and the rails that run through it.
Sooooo much here. Now I recall that you mentioned first time around about the possibility of RUclips taking the video down(guess they did). Now I can comment again. WOW! And Cumberland locations are more -easily understood because of VR’s cam there now. The church scenes with the hymn are really special. As I watch this time I can only be more-amazed at your talent. Another memory has been triggered. In 1963 I travelled the Sand Patch on a B&O charter train full of Kansas high school students. We departed Chicago at 11 pm so we got the Sand Patch totally in daylight. Having steel in my veins (my grandfather was a conductor on the Santa Fe) I followed the rear brakeman around as we were stopped several times and he had to protect our rear-lots of fusee’s burned that day. Thanks for your perseverance to return to the channel!
Wow, what a ride ! Great views of Cumberland, Md. at the beginning, too! My dad was born and raised there, and my grandmother last lived on Green Street, across from the Coca Cola bottling plant. My brother and I would always watch for trains crossing viaduct just down the street whenever we were in town to visit. My dad's closest friend worked for Chessie and predecessors after world war 2 and retired in the early 80s. He worked as a " car knocker " and worked with the wreck crew when they were called out to clear up derailments. That was in the days when railroads did all that for themselves . Mr. Charlie Barr used to tell us quite a few stories of wrecks he helped to clean up. Thanks again for such a beautiful ride along!
Great video man, amazing work! Looks like this place has a lot of action and a lot of fantastic sights! Definitely gonna have to come down here and catch some trains!
peak time for Sand Patch colors is around October 15..at the summit they may be past peak by then..just depends on the weather!!! We have not had an early fall in ages so I'm guessing this year MIGHT be a year the colors go much sooner.. having a less "hot" summer this year so one never knows!
This just popped up on my RUclips suggestions. Wow, what a beautifully crafted video highlighting rail.operations in that part of the US. A couple of times I thought I was looking at a model railway layout at night! Thoroughly enjoyed it, from a Aussie railfan!
The filming is really great! Excellent work, and I bet it was a lot of work, considering the distance. Thanks for the effort expended. Really enjoyed it 😊. What talent!
Absolutely world class drone footage, of one of five or six mountain passes through out the United States rail system second to none in the world! Last you Sir. are incredible in cinematography & music, this is the greatest ever done!
Glad you enjoyed it!!!! Yes..had to make a few copyright adjustments for music reasons, and a few other minor edits, but glad to get it back for you to enjoy!!!
Thanks so much for this new one! Can't wait to watch it tonight on the big screen. Your videos are, without a doubt, the best out there! Much appreciated!
The Michaelangelo of train videos strikes again. Amazing work. Would love to see something from Minnesota and former DMIR area. Ore mines, docks, winter etc.. 👌🏼
Yes, cumberland is tough go same here calgary to vancouver bc.CSX yard is main turning point on csx systems the repair is well locations for repair.excellent video and music thank you.😊
Excellent Job & Work ACME! I saw your last video out west on the Southern Transcontinental! You Give a lot of great shots and Historical Fact about The Keystone Subdivision! Thank you again! Try Doing The Pocahontas Subdivision From Bluefield WV To Kenova WV NS line ! You’ll Be Surprised!
At Hyndman historic Bridgeport MD was where the Bedford & Bridgeport RR interlocked. Adding in Mann's Choice PA as we are on PA 31/PA 96 as we are headed away from U.S. 30 towards Shawnne State Park as we drive northwest towards Somerset PA was to be South Pennsylvania Railroad to the driver's side as to the passenger side was the Bedford & Bridgeport Railroad.
You can just barely see an abandoned railroad bridge in hyndman 17:53 in that video. Almost labeled it but it is so fleeting skipped it. Someday will get a closer look at it!
Looking at the video here to the far side of the Western Maryland RR/Railway Trestle as WM is facing Meyersdale at the end of the trestle was a wye pull to service Grey Mine operations that to this day still has tracks in Ground and a railroad crossing. To the left of the trestle at Meyersdale was a amusement park and trolley line as we are facing towards Rockwood, Confluence, Ohiopyle historic Great Falls PA.
The pairs in your video at 58:21 into video were either left of trolley line or of line that may have come south of Somerset Yard as I haven't quite figured that out yet. Yet the line connects to the Western Maryland Railroad/ Railways line as on the other side on Great Allegheny Passage as we for years were forced to use road to go around WM by crossing the Casselman River to use old U.S. 219 to reach Meyersdale tunnel or go up hill to PA 160 to go south over B&O Sand Patch tunnel to reach T to reach Frostburg to right of T or turn left to reach Cumberland at WM Station and C&O Canal and still have to do so when Big Savage Mountain tunnel is closed.
Why were ACME videos taken down for a while? Nevermind - comment below mentions music licensing. Glad these are back. Stunning job with the cinematography.
taken down for copyright reasons... issue is the music has to be licensed and getting the different publishing houses permissions has been a chore.... but glad to have them back online again!!!!
With all the railroad consolidations it appears that B&O now CSX had been and is working with Burlington Northern Santa Fa Railroads, as the Norfolk & Southern past Pennsylvania Railroad had been working with Union Pacific Railroad.
At Garrett PA in Somerset County PA along the B&O RR side of Cassleman River was where South Pennsylvania Railroad was to come south from the east side of the 3 Allegheny Tunnels to service Snyder's of Berlin now owned by Utz Snacks to reach wye to B&O as the SPRR was to cross the Cassleman pulling right onto the Western Maryland RR that became Railway to reach the Vanderbilt controlled Pittsburgh & Lake Erie PMcKey and P&LE RR mainline to reach the Vanderbilt lines in Youngstown & Cleveland Ohio. There was also to be wye to the B&O RR's Indian Creek Branch in Ohiopyle as there was also to be a SPRR Wheeling VA now Wheeling WV line that the SPRR was to share with B&O RR's Benwood Tunnels and B&O RR's Sheepskin Trail using the Outcrop Tunnel between BoWest and B&O's first mainline south of Uniontown PA using Outcrop Tunnel.
Some.where between Sand Patch Tunnel and west of was to be a wye for the B&O RR to meet the South Pennsylvania Railroad at the top of the 3 Lick Creek area between east of Somerset PA and New Baltimore PA. This would be SPRR RR and would be B&O wye was never finished, yet much work on both railroads were for certain finished and to this day can be seen
@@AcmeCinematography Saturation looks terrific to me. Indeed it may be a trifle higher than 'realistic", but it's your artistic vision. I'd leave it just where it is. Some of the best train video work I've ever seen. Thank you!

?What's with all the left hand running in the opening aerial scenes?
Can't get enough of this! Imagine capturing all of this with your drone 25 - 30 years ago. Thank you for sharing your masterpiece!
Glad you enjoyed it! I’m sure artificial intelligence will soon have em1’s storming up sand patch!
This movie just blew me away. I have biked the GAP trail for decades and I always enjoy the scenery of the Laurel Highlands and the amazing rumble of the CSX trains along the Youghiogheny River...you often cannot see the trains while biking but you can hear them as if you were next to them.
Seeing the landscape from the air provides a new and stunning view of the Laurel Highlands.
I live near Pittsburgh and this area is pretty much my backyard. It's a too welk-kept secret.
Notice the homes in the movie. Nothing extravagant or fancy but they are almost always well kept and neat. Cumberland, Meyersdale and Rockwood are charming towns worth spending some time in. Those folks on the Capitol Limited sure got their money's worth.

The Capitol Limited uses CSX tracks from Washington to Pittsburgh and uses a track that runs under Oakland (where the University of Pittsburgh is) to connect to the Norfolk Southern main line to continue to Chicago.
The view of the Horseshoe Curve at Mance is every bit as impressive as the Horseshoe Curve in Altoona.

At Rockwood PA wye there was to be a wye up to Somerset PA Yard along the Garrett Shortcut.
Yes!
With all the railroad consolidations it appears that B&O now CSX had been and is working with Burlington Northern Santa Fa Railroads, as the Norfolk & Southern past Pennsylvania Railroad had been working with Union Pacific Railroad.
Yes lots of mergers!
Can’t image how many times you had to set up for drone shots Amazing!!! 😮
A lot!!! 😂😂😂
The C&O would've connected to the Pennsylvania Canal at AMTRAK/ Greyhound Stations in Pittsburg now Pittsburgh PA in Allegheny County PA.
Ok!
I’m assuming this is where the mighty EM-1’s ruled the grades many moons ago. If only one had survived and been displayed near its stomping grounds.
Yes!!! Agreed!!!
At Garrett PA in Somerset County PA along the B&O RR side of Cassleman River was where South Pennsylvania Railroad was to come south from the east side of the 3 Allegheny Tunnels to service Snyder's of Berlin now owned by Utz Snacks to reach wye to B&O as the SPRR was to cross the Cassleman pulling right onto the Western Maryland RR that became Railway to reach the Vanderbilt controlled Pittsburgh & Lake Erie PMcKey and P&LE RR mainline to reach the Vanderbilt lines in Youngstown & Cleveland Ohio. There was also to be wye to the B&O RR's Indian Creek Branch in Ohiopyle as there was also to be a SPRR Wheeling VA now Wheeling WV line that the SPRR was to share with B&O RR's Benwood Tunnels and B&O RR's Sheepskin Trail using the Outcrop Tunnel between BoWest and B&O's first mainline south of Uniontown PA using Outcrop Tunnel.
Yes!
Thank you for posting, will u do a winter version of the sand patch grade?
Yes, the plan is over the winter to hopefully get enough material together for a pure winter production !!
Wonderful this line is truly magical and with ur videography it will be incredible!
thanks!!!!!!!!
👍🏆
Minor revision dealing with music copyright. :)
Some.where between Sand Patch Tunnel and west of was to be a wye for the B&O RR to meet the South Pennsylvania Railroad at the top of the 3 Lick Creek area between east of Somerset PA and New Baltimore PA. This would be SPRR RR and would be B&O wye was never finished, yet much work on both railroads were for certain finished and to this day can be seen
Interesting !
God's Country
Agreed!!!
Fantastic video. Wish you would music credits.
Thanks!
The drone shots make all the difference. 😅
Yup!
I would like to do a reaction video to your video !!
😂😂😂well that would be interesting 😂
Where have you guys been❓don't see much from you anymore
Music copyright issues. Ugh. Back now !
@@AcmeCinematography I will compose you a song😁👍
ok!!!!
Help me understand the no horn crossings csx has everywhere.
Ok!
Do you accept donations to do more railroads?
Thanks! What specific line/area? :)
When was this shot? 2023
2014-2024
One or two shots from 2009 or so.
Gorgeous but the saturation is jacked a little too high. Starts looking unrealistic.
Thank you!
@@AcmeCinematography Saturation looks terrific to me. Indeed it may be a trifle higher than 'realistic", but it's your artistic vision. I'd leave it just where it is. Some of the best train video work I've ever seen. Thank you!
agreed... its hard to set saturation that looks correct for every possible viewing situation!!!! We prefer the world thru rose colored glasses ;)
I got hard watching this
😂 We are glad it lifted your spirits.😂
whats with the ultra heavy dramatic music. Railfanning is fun. Keep it simple
Thanks!
