    Another awesome Grab Bag. Really cool machine at Horseshoe Curve. Those Darwins make me scream at my TV every single time, and it's usually something I can't put as a comment. Spooky shadow.

    C.P. should really put a pedestrian overpass at that crossing in Revy. They sometimes block it for up to two hours. We all know there is an overpass about a kilometre away but that is then a 2 K walk. Saskatchewan is taxing railroad property frontage at normal business tax rates I believe. If B.C. did that it would help fund railway related issues as well.

    La grange is always a challenge for the train engineers. Loved the old steam train looked befitting to show it in black and white! And all of the Darwin candidates amazing. Recently saw one my area who left his car in the low tidal area here in Coastal south Carolina I guess he didn't know the tide comes in twice a day! And flooded over the roof line with a lot of onlookers. Who buys a brand new $50k Camaro with only basic liability 👺 he was only 20 I think his name was Darwin! Ahh yes to be two thirds younger again 😅

    6:49 AGPX 8323 is a GP10 that was rebuilt by the Illinois Central. It has worked in St. joesph, Missouri for many years prior to repainting

    7:55 five KCS SD70MACs (two in gray) that have been sold off to PRLX. I guess those ex-BNSF C44-9Ws took over their work.
    9:35 this emergency stop takes 42 seconds to completely stop the train. 23 cars pass by too. Someone sneaks between those cars and past the conductor.
    11:08 Take back what I said last time, this is the dumbest Darwin VRF has caught so far! Train is still moving and he risks getting crushed by the wheels!

    Playing chicken with a train is not a smart move at all.
