Got a funny story for you regarding railroad crossings. So back in 2000 my cousin Roland, a conductor for CSX Jacksonville I mentioned once or twice before, was bringing in a long train to the Jacksonville area when a motorcade was basically having to stop for the crossing. I must reiterate this was a long, slow train taking roughly twenty to twenty-five minutes to clear the crossing. Once the train was in the yard the manager comes to Roland, trying his best not to laugh and asks him if he knew who he had delayed. Roland said he did not, and the manager then lost it and started laughing. "You delayed Presidential-Candidate Al Gore!!" Roland then, much to the manager's amusement shrugged and said, "So what? I'm voting for Bush!"
@@Hyce777 LOL, never heard of that one. I guess the morrow of both stories, never hold political rallies near railroads, the trains will always show you up (or in Al Gore's case, make you late to your own press conference/ rally). XD
One time, driving my rail vehicle, the warning device broke down. Immediately out of service, but still gotta get it back to the shed for maintainence. It had an external PA. ...Making stupid noises is a legit rail safety technique. 😎 If there's ever a next time, I'll try a squeaky toy, as you say. They'll never know what the hell happened 😂😂😂
This game is pretty fun, I've had hauls with over 90 cars usually with a terminal end point. My best rule with that much is to maintain 40kph throughout. Makes for fun game play with road switching.
Love the "fireworks" display at the end there, that is probs the most fun you ever had Hyce. Although... is there going to be an explosion mechanic in RO if you end up derailing the tanker car hauling crude oil later on WAY down the RO 3ft line?
Even more satisfying, and useful if you're running short on the time bonus on two consists going to the same section, is bottling the air before disconnecting while rolling, so you cut one consist free and let it roll then open one of the end valves in the right spot, run over and stop the second load in it's right spot. Of course that does need a bit of timing to get the right separation to flip the right switch, but is good fun.
Point of correction RUD does not originate from NASA it comes from kerbal space program and as for some strange reason a lot of people connected with the space side of the airoSpace industry have an interest in KSP the phrase has become industry slang.
@@Hyce777 Mind you that is for RUD specifically variations of the term predate KSP by a significant period of time mostly military in origin. But the modern meaning and it's popularity where it is short hand for "everything exploded" is very much KSP in origin.
Since you manage the keyboard shortcuts well, consider going to the Machine Factory & town and buying a locomotive remote for 25000. When holding a remote you can use the keyboard shortcuts to quickly change locomotive controls from 400 meter distance from the cab (or 2400 meters with the caboose attached to the train)
Track 6D-O down there is a stack track, there can be up to a dozen trains stacked down there. One time I had a bunch of shunts and most of them ended up on 6DO and had to re-sort them to make the outbound train...
They really need to fix those signs, they don't give you any warning about intersection speeds until you are right on top of the intersection, some can go from 70 to an instant 30. And some of those signs are right on the edge of speed before derailing, I've had some unexpected derails in the cars when I definitely did the speed limit through the section. The speed changes can also be super aggressive, and barely give you time to react before you are in it. You should also watch for those white downward triangles with red under the speed limit, that means the speed is going to drop 20kmph or more.
So, the biggest difference between fright or passenger cut in is freight like you said, doesn’t have a graduated release and Full release is 90 lbs, with passenger it has the graduated release and a full release is 110 lbs. our mechanical guy was running one time and he put it in passenger cut out because he said the cars will sometimes respond/release faster with 110, but obviously their brake valves aren’t set up for graduated release
Lol, sorry :P I'm not much of an optimist with classic rock flying these days... That said, the amount of comments that came from folks that knew it warmed me up :D
Frow what I’ve seen of shunting videos in Europe, they seem to stand in the foul between the buffers while making joints. Just feels wrong somehow, but I guess they have less slack to deal with. Haven’t finished the episode yet, but the thumbnail looks pretty spicy so we’ll see how this unfolds 😂 28:00 Lazy yard crew left the switch to the central oil well open once, and I ploughed straight into an entire yard of explodey bois.
The most fun I have ever had is playing Beamng Drive, and using the add on SD40-2s and boxcars, since the game renders realistic physics the crashes are absolutely insane as far as how the cars realistically react
Love the video.. and you should check how much the fees would have been after the RUD... probably a high number =P would love to get to know how to proper use the train horn.. for crossings and such :)
Technically if you don’t have an ETD you still need a caboose right? Lol. But seriously I saw a short freight train on a branch line with a rickety old caboose once and I couldn’t get my camera fast enough because I was shocked. It was a Norfolk southern train
Hi. You explained in a video at a train yard that might be a museum or both museum and working train yard I can't remember. I'm the video you explained why cabooses aren't used anymore or rarely used. Thank you for that. This is my first time seeing this video. I love how you play the game. You explain things and you don't seem to try and play for perfection on the game. If more gamers edited some of the mess ups in games like you and a few GTA players I love to watch it would be more awesome. This is how I want to do a RUclips gaming channel but don't know how to record from my Xbox to computer. Guess have to look it up
When this update first came out, I took the steam engine and a line of cars at top speed through the oil station. It was a fun explosion. Expensive explosion, but fun nonetheless . In case you need any pyromania ideas
Shoulda pre-staged some sploadybois at OWC as an anvil. For the hammer, manual-link like you did with the big boy rescue episode, double-top-and-tail de6 with a nice slinky of flatbedded steel rail from the SM. Then teleport to the catwalk for the loading station to take screenshots.
Its going to be pretty funny if you ever get in the habit of using the remote in derail valley and then end up derailing in railroads online, because you are trying to get the remote out.
They had CTC back then, right? Towers at least. I'd love to do a tower simulator, I had a game one time that you were a CTC operator. They had maps for Altoona to Galirzen, Penn Station Tower A, and some others
Heck CTC simulator was one of the first train simulator games I can recall. MS DOS,3.5 floppy era early 90s. Could order various real world routes etc.
Those are universal placards, but since those are tanks, they would need to have the UN number on them. And you ususally don't see explosive and flamable used together like that. If it is explosive, it usually would not be hauled in a huge tank like that. There is also no class number wrtten on them. It would usualy have which class of explosive or flamable material is being hauled. The placards are ok if they were small boxes of something, but not for a huge tank car.
Humm I was the conductor on a train that derailed containing HAZMAT... grilled was not the word only a class 9 hazmat but a hazmat anyway where and why the car were there... if the two cars that derailed had mixed the foam that would have resulted would have been the size of a football stadium, both car were destined for a insulation panel manufacturer! I still have copies of the manifests for my records just incase!
yikes man. I know we joke around and have fun on the games like this but for real that's no joke. glad it didn't go too far south after hitting the dirt.
Once more a video with lots of gags and funny stuff your mentioning. But I gotta ask about the word "great crossing" since in not a native of the states I don't know what exactly it means. Can you help Mr. Hyce? Kind regards (looking forward to more madness and fireworks) Bjørn from Denmark 🇩🇰
Of course Bjørn! It is actually "Grade Crossing" - where you have a crossing of roadway grade, and railroad grade. I think they call them Level Crossings at least in the UK, not sure about the rest of Europe. Anywhere a road crosses the track. I work in the industry here that makes them so I get pretty specific. We call them At-grade crossings, or Highway Rail Grade Crossings (that's what the government calls them). You can also have Above-grade crossing (bridge) or below-grade crossing (tunnel or underpass), hence why the flat ones (usually with lights and gates) are called at-grade. Thanks for watching Bjørn!
@@Hyce777 og wow of course, that makes so much sense. Thanks Mark. You know even though we have a language barrier and some words is hard to understand it is so great you can just ask and get an answer 😃 Thanks again and may your evening be great. My Nightshift is half way through 💪🏻🇩🇰
@@Hyce777 no need for coffee, here the view and fun keeps me going through the 12 hour shift i have when working night. BNSF omg. that sure must have been somewhat, just AWESOME 🤟🏻
hey hyce, I just ran with the DE6 for the first time today, and I know how to open the fuse box easily, stand facing it, click, and drag up and/or left, you probably won't get it first try, but it'll open all the way when you do
@@Hyce777 the scroll wheel? I mean, considering other game mechanics it seems logical, but my method, when done right, usually works in 10 sec or less, but I have less than 100hrs in game as your little series is what motivated me to get it, so I certainly am not the best person to give advice lol
It is staged in an outbound lane, c yard is the liquid yard and it only and a storage lane, inbound lane, and a liquid loading lane, so it need to go to another place for outbound staging.
Greetings Hyce, Axehandle here. Did you say in this or one of your other videos that leaving cars in the yard with bottled up air is illegal? If I'm switching and use locomotive brakes I try to remember let the air out by opening the angle cock.
Hmmm. You can have bad slack action / bad responses if you're braking hard with the independent, that could be it. That, and going over switches at track speed doesn't seem to help.
@@Hyce777 I use the train brake 90% of the time and I've also had this issue where I can be going straight on s track and my tran just goes "aight I'm about to head out and it Flys off the rails even under the limit and also how do I get the steamer to pull me up hills better I did an 800 ton load last night and barely made it to the harbor from steel mill
hummm I think I see FRA violations> a caboose on the end of the train is a no no! unless it is unoccupied! no occupied cars next to hazmat but if you are riding a hazmat car on the shove ... or can not be occupied and you need at least one headend buffer car to completely hazmat train... You need 5 buffer cars if available to the engine ( I guess going back to steam era rules!)
hey hyce now that you have extra money why don't you buy the locomotive remote so you can do shunting very easily ,you can also use it for double loco runs where you can control one engine from the cab and the other loco with the remote
rules say moves not lead by a locomotive will be protected... (stop protect and proceed) ie no lights/gates hey I'm reciting OUR rules about this stuff

That's hilarious! Much akin to UP 844 blowing the whistle throughout the political commentary at one of those events back in the day.... lol
@@Hyce777 LOL, never heard of that one. I guess the morrow of both stories, never hold political rallies near railroads, the trains will always show you up (or in Al Gore's case, make you late to your own press conference/ rally). XD
"Ready to shovel coal into the big block"
My favorite quote to date!
The thumbnail gives me a good idea that this train ES&D’s
I've got tears in my eyes from laughing. Screaming at the crossing. Genius!
One time, driving my rail vehicle, the warning device broke down. Immediately out of service, but still gotta get it back to the shed for maintainence.
It had an external PA.

best impression of a train horn i've ever heard!
Setting the brakes from the loose pipe is such a genius chad move to me, I'd never have thought to even try that

If you look at the vehicle licenses it tells you the max load recommended for them. DE2 is 400 tons, SH282 is 1000 tons, and DE6 is 1400 tons.
The „where the train could go“ is called Lichtraumprofil in Germany.
Heard a devious change to your voice when you said you were hauling gas and diesel cars 😂

The consequences later:
100g's. "Those are rookie numbers, you gotta step up your game."

With Hyce it's either all the beans or nothing.
