They are going to insert a bunch of those yellow bars across the bottom of the station. Then, they will lift the station up on hydraulics and pull in a flatbed truck under the bars. Lower the bars and station onto the flatbed truck, and then slowly pull it over to the new location (which I know you will be filming for us). Once the station is over to the new location, they will put the yellow bars on hydraulics to take it off the truck, pull out the truck and then lower the station onto the new foundation. I have known this procedure to take place on old stations, up here in Canada.
There are some buildings that I would prefer be scrapped and a building of its likeness put in place, nice and tight, todays legal, but it has the feel of history. Believe me I would do a save almost every time. Why or Wye The Ice Cream Train Shoppe. History the heck out of it. Have a train or bus courtesy stop there on a schedule.
Thanks for going back to the Hamilton, Ohio railroad station on 23 August 2022 to document these trains and the station. The engineer on the first train gave you a horn salute and a quick wave. That was a surprise to see the train on the Indianapolis Subdivision. The auto rack train was long. Thank you for the tour around the Hamilton train station. They are going to have to do a lot of fix up work on the depot after they move it. I am wondering how they are going to move that building.
The local paper just last week said depot project is on hold for a bit. The city claims they put everything (contractors paperwork) in the hands of CSX for review in late May, but the railroad’s project manager has yet to approve the contractor’s insurance for window/door reinforcement and the removal of the tin ceilings. I believe that is all that is left prior to turning it over to the actual movers. They are now worried that the weather window is closing in for a move this year. I was told all hazmat/asbestos has been done.
Most of the graffiti on train cars, is communication between gang members from City to City. Not all of it! Some of it's really nice! But nonetheless it's still vandalism. Great video JT. Keep it coming! :-)
From seeing other buildings moved I would imagine they would excavate under the walls to insert several I beams for supporting the structure, then jack it up to mount on dollies for the move and then the reverse process at the new location. Love the WHY sign. Maybe a misspelling of WYE or something else?
Thanks for explaining that those odd looking cars are for steel. The dumpster is covered and the necessity for hazmat suits is indicative that they were removing something icky. Great that they are preserving this piece of history.
well they moved the cape hatteras lighthouse a few years ago at teh cost of 11,000,000 dollars and they moved it one quarter mile. that thing is over 200 feet high too.
A nice sized local train with SD40s and a friendly engineer - you said it :) You also nailed it with "vandalism". It is graffiti and some of it is artistic, but in the end it is vandalism. Nice autorack - with the sun, I could see the autos inside :) That station - moving a building that old is a massive project involving some very specialized equipment. I bet they are having trouble finding anyone who can do the move or wants to. You have it correct - there is every good chance that the brickwork will crumble during the process.
@@problu9586 I am also not a fan of graffiti , and have commented about it before. I always wonder where they get the paint. I would almost bet they aren't going down to the hardware store and buying it.
As far as I know, they dig holes all around the perimeter of the building. In the holes they then remove part of the foundation and place jacks in each one. Then they slowly jack the building up until they can get a carrier under it (the kind with hundreds of wheels). First they have to get one that's bigger that's long enough for the station. Once loaded on that, they truck it over inch by inch to the new location, where they then lower it onto the new foundation. You can youtube how buildings are moved to give you an idea. It's pretty neat.
We are going to have to start calling you Sensei Jaw Tooth! Not only are you an entertainer, but also an educator. Great video as usual and excellent history/informational as well. Keep up the great work Sensei.
Why is there a sign-board which says: "WHY" just before the depot..? Does not seem to be a proper abbreviation for Hamilton. Some perverse suggestion has prompted this inquiry, I think... Pete C., in NH
JT, I'm sure there are lots of building moving videos on RUclips. I've seen it done many times on tv so the videos should be here. They even moved a lighthouse on the Carolina coast!
This is the only location where I have ever seen a sign that says "Why". Judging by the spelling it appears to be a philosophical question and one that ask myself every day.
The coupled length of most of the Bi & Tri level auto racks is 93 feet 10” inches. And they can carry around 80,000 lbs for the Bi level and around 73,000 lbs for the Tri level. But they usually bulk out before reaching the weight limit. The Bi level cars usually can carry 10 trucks, SUVs, and vans. The Tri level cars can usually carry 15 regular automobiles..
@@perchlarkin Absolutely. The weight of a 2022 Chevrolet Impala is around 3750 lbs. So 15 of them is only around 56,000 lbs. A load of coal is around 236,000 lbs plus around 50,000 lbs for the car which is 286,000 lbs gross for a car of coal, grain. plastic pellets, etc, etc. A 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 weights is between 4,700 to 5,300 Lbs. So 10 of them would be around 50,000 lbs. The max gross weight of the Bi and Tri levels is between 179,000 and 180,000 lbs. Each container compartment is light compared to a car in a unit train like coal, grain, plastic pellets, etc, etc, also. Each container has a gross weight of around 60,000 lbs. The highway gross weight of a container and its tractor is around 80,000 lbs.
@@billmorris2613 Do you know if Autoracks have the net gross weight numbers embedded on the sides at all likes all those other cars, I.e: gondulas, boxcars, hoppers, and flatbeds?
@@ATARP24 Yes, unless it gets covered up by graffiti. The Lt (light / empty) and Gross weights are usually right under or next to the car number. Their max gross weight is between 179,000 and 180,000 lbs. The light weight is between 100,000 and 106,000 Lbs. The difference between Lt and Gross weight is the load limit.
I’m thinking to keep the depot from crumbling they will move it very carefully, with a lot of bracing inside. I’m thinking they will probably move it in 3 to 5 sections. The whole building in around 180 feet. I think they will try to move the north, three story section which is around 40 feet long in one section. Then the rest in 2 to 4 sections. Some disassembly besides cutting the building into sections may be required. They did move a old school building intact in New Orleans a few years ago. It is a three story, stone building about 80 ft wide and 130 ft long. If you look on Google earth It is on the corner of S Claiborne Ave and Cleveland Ave. It has a light green roof on it. It’s no longer visible in the street view but is there on the satellite view. It sat there on the frame work and wheels for a few years.
Check out Wolfe House and Building Movers, and more specifically the Sturgis, MI Station move, on the internet and you will see how amazingly these complete buildings can be moved almost completely intact. The ex Milwaukee Road station in Bedford, IN (a STONE building) was a similar move.
Gotta be difficult and expensive to move that old station. Thankfully its not being moved far. You answered my question, wondered if the Auto-racks were loaded... DPU Wooooooooo 👍 Great piece of live action & history VIDEO !! 👍👍👍
Lots of trains today! That's great! Think they sent one on that line from Indy to Cincy because they knew somehow that you were there! Moving that old brick station is going to be an interesting adventure. Maybe you can figure out a way to be there and take some video when they do! Hubby had an answer to what "anti" means - against everything. Stay safe and keep up the great videos! L & G, N. Idaho
You asked about what the ç on auto racks mean. I didn't see it but it probably means plate c. Plates are a standard way of defining dimensions and clearances.
Great local train SD 40 leading and gp 40 following great location Hamilton jaw tooth you should ask the city to let you know when they are going to move the old station would make a great video on the other hand thank you for a great video
I was in HVAC for many years, they used Asbestos in everything: ceiling tiles, floor tiles, shingles, plumbing, heating ducts, even some old wood frame houses were covered on the outside walls with asbestos shingles.

Make sure you catch them preparing that building for moving it's a treat to watch .I worked with a company we moved buildings and it always is a awesome feeling to get one up and moved . Not to mention saving history.
I love railroad station architecture. I'd like to have a coffee-table book on that. I love sketching railroad stations. Up here in Michigan, there are people who photograph old barns. Not many old ones left. At least I can see trains pass by my apartment, only a few yards away.
There is a lot of prep work required to move a brick building. They basically have to create an internal framework to keep the building intact. Once that is done, they can start to lift the building in preparation of the move.
Great good video, mr Jaw Tooth. Long trains are things in the U.S.A. in the Netherlands and Europe are trains shorter and ride faster. But on the location where you made this video's inside the city must the train driver ride slower. This also in Europa. On the free railways outside the station and city's riding the trains 120km/h Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands.
The mix just ends up 30fps on YT though. Mystery to me, but yesterday's video was 48fps, which I hadn't seen before. Personally, I like 60fps because the videos seem to "pop" more, but you probably have to shoot everything at 60fps to get that.
Well you might want to learn how to dream because if you check on the internet for Wolfe House and Building Movers, and more specifically the Sturgis, MI station move you will see about probably how this will be accomished.
Seemed like a bunch of cars for the two tired but very tough sd40-2's and the cool hammer head running GE made the k5HL sound fairly decent with the train on the rarely used line.
1. I was impressed on just two engines moving that much weight right along. (autos) 2. I googled this and noticed that 'INDY' train has a lot of grade crossings to go through to get there. One small derailment would tie that whole town up! Thanks for the vid
The derailment that I filmed in Hamilton was a train coming off the Indy sub onto the mainline at the wye. They had a bunch of streets blocked when I got there and they had to pull the train back west to clear the streets
I hope we get to see that building moved. Wonder if they will move it in sections. Hopefully someone that lives there will let you know when they start moving it.
Great catches Jaw Tooth. After hearing from you how the station looks, it seems the building would be better off just demolishing it or burning it down.
It's been a dream of mine to get a shout out plus, I saw those SD40-2's before like a few months ago. But still we injoy your content and we are happy for you to travel USA to film trains! ( like me ). Thank you for everything you do for your Subscribers and other people around the world! From : Robert Valdez To : JawTooth
Awesome video JT. Great to see those old “workhorses “ SD40-2 leading a good size local with a friendly crew. One of these trains had a location running long hood forward, don’t see that a lot, glad to see some old railroad history being preserved, the train station. Pretty good size auto train too with a hard working DPU of course. Those odd looking cars on that local thanks for pointing out what they were. Stay cool JT. Thanks.
'Anti' means against. Ante means put your money in the pot when playing poker. Yes, some of the graffiti is imaginative but you don't see any marring rolling stock in Japan, but then we're talking of a nation that instills respect in their people and America where it's if it feels good, do it. Also, let's not forget that some of those cars also go into Mexico and Canada, so same applies.
Hey Jaw Tooth! Great video to start the week. That first train was loooonng. lol The Ol'Depot is gonna look great, once they move and restore it. The CSX loco running LHF was cool. I love those CSX ET44AHs, they're beast! That's a lot of freakin' autroracks. Woooo DPU! Talk about emptying the yard!! The Depot sure is gonna take a lot of work. Hey Chessie and Norfie!
You forget your past videos. lol. Just a week ago, you filmed a 1 engine train pulling 116 cars; so it can be done without a DPU. It's not that the trains are so long and it seems like they never end; you just pick places where they are moving slow & it seems forever. Trains with well over 100 cars have been common for decades. You should get up to Northern OH & film. The trains between Cleveland & Toledo move faster & that's one of busiest lines (New York-Chicago) in the country. I'd like to see some more Cincinnati Eastern Railroad.
The heavier the load is that is being hauled, the more likely you will find a DPU. The DPU does exaclty as implied it distributes the power source thereby taking load off of the couplings between cars, one of the major failures that cause delays and often blocked tracks or crossings. Think of a train with DPUs as 2 short trains hooked together without the need of the 2nd crew!
@@kevinshiley9061 That makes sense; I already kind of figured that out. I remember a video of a year or two ago that was a NS pulling 101 loaded coal cars with only the 1 engine. That surprised me because I'm sure that coal was very heavy.
Also has to do with track grades and curvatures on a particular line whether there are distributed power units included. A stalled train on a grade is a bear to resolve for the railroad.
@@richarddrum9970 I started to go through JT videos but too many to find the 101 car video; but I did find one he put on YT Jan. 27, 2022. I was thinking about the grade as you mentioned. The NS coal train is going through Kenova WV. It's just the 1 engine pulling 123 cars. With all the hilly terrain in WV & curves, I was still surprised to see just the 1 engine & no DPUs anywhere on that train.
JT: can you start identifying the locos your filming? I’m a modeler and enjoy seeing the various places you film, but knowing engine types would help. Thanks!
Hello from the UK. May be they have decided to remove the inside of the building first (hence boarding up the windows). Then they will move the outside and build it around the inside (that will already be in its new location). To save on double handling, they will probably move and build the roof first and then relocate the external walls. Makes sense to me lol! Sounds like a plan to me!
That's funny, a sign that says "WHY" LOL

26:50 looks like 2 separate foundations ? old building is one, going to cut it up maybe.
Online articles say 2 buildings w/ an "intermediate section"
It is two sections with a walled in “portico”. The one story section is not original and would be a “third section”
Perhaps the workers at the old depot were putting in bracing in preparation for picking the building up?

That first leader is only 1 away from "Crazy 8s" of "Unstoppable" fame...
Anyone who thinks that station will ever be moved is a dreamer.
Well you might want to learn how to dream because if you check on the internet for Wolfe House and Building Movers, and more specifically the Sturgis, MI station move you will see about probably how this will be accomished.
I know it can be accomplished but who is willing to pay the enormus cost of doing it.
Seemed like a bunch of cars for the two tired but very tough sd40-2's and the cool hammer head running GE made the k5HL sound fairly decent with the train on the rarely used line.
1. I was impressed on just two engines moving that much weight right along. (autos)
2. I googled this and noticed that 'INDY' train has a lot of grade crossings to go through to get there. One small derailment would tie that whole town up! Thanks for the vid
The derailment that I filmed in Hamilton was a train coming off the Indy sub onto the mainline at the wye. They had a bunch of streets blocked when I got there and they had to pull the train back west to clear the streets

Haz-mat suits = asbestos, lead paint. CSX Engineers know Jaw. Toot toot.
Great video, always entertaining. Thanks again for sharing.
I hope we get to see that building moved. Wonder if they will move it in sections. Hopefully someone that lives there will let you know when they start moving it.
That restored station would look spectacular...
very high quality image in this video... thank you. It's getting better!!
Awesome, thank you!
Morning JT locomotive's are strong the video show just that. Finally a dpu yeah. How many axel's that got to be way over1500.
I hope you get the chance to film the move of the old station building.
2-125, 1-41, 2-124.
Great catches Jaw Tooth. After hearing from you how the station looks, it seems the building would be better off just demolishing it or burning it down.
It's been a dream of mine to get a shout out plus, I saw those SD40-2's before like a few months ago. But still we injoy your content and we are happy for you to travel USA to film trains! ( like me ). Thank you for everything you do for your Subscribers and other people around the world!

Awesome video JT. Great to see those old “workhorses “ SD40-2 leading a good size local with a friendly crew. One of these trains had a location running long hood forward, don’t see that a lot, glad to see some old railroad history being preserved, the train station. Pretty good size auto train too with a hard working DPU of course. Those odd looking cars on that local thanks for pointing out what they were. Stay cool JT. Thanks.
Man that car carrier was long. DPU I see you, working hard.
I’m thinking the moving of the old depot would make a good episode of Mega Movers, if they are still producing the series.
Good morning! 😊❤🙏
Good Morning
'Anti' means against. Ante means put your money in the pot when playing poker. Yes, some of the graffiti is imaginative but you don't see any marring rolling stock in Japan, but then we're talking of a nation that instills respect in their people and America where it's if it feels good, do it. Also, let's not forget that some of those cars also go into Mexico and Canada, so same applies.
Im amazed at how much one locomotive can pull
Hey Jaw Tooth! Great video to start the week. That first train was loooonng. lol The Ol'Depot is gonna look great, once they move and restore it. The CSX loco running LHF was cool. I love those CSX ET44AHs, they're beast! That's a lot of freakin' autroracks. Woooo DPU! Talk about emptying the yard!! The Depot sure is gonna take a lot of work. Hey Chessie and Norfie!
Just love these videos, the local history, the fun and most of all the trains. Thanks JT
Glad you like them!
You forget your past videos. lol. Just a week ago, you filmed a 1 engine train pulling 116 cars; so it can be done without a DPU. It's not that the trains are so long and it seems like they never end; you just pick places where they are moving slow & it seems forever. Trains with well over 100 cars have been common for decades. You should get up to Northern OH & film. The trains between Cleveland & Toledo move faster & that's one of busiest lines (New York-Chicago) in the country. I'd like to see some more Cincinnati Eastern Railroad.
The heavier the load is that is being hauled, the more likely you will find a DPU. The DPU does exaclty as implied it distributes the power source thereby taking load off of the couplings between cars, one of the major failures that cause delays and often blocked tracks or crossings. Think of a train with DPUs as 2 short trains hooked together without the need of the 2nd crew!
@@kevinshiley9061 That makes sense; I already kind of figured that out. I remember a video of a year or two ago that was a NS pulling 101 loaded coal cars with only the 1 engine. That surprised me because I'm sure that coal was very heavy.
Also has to do with track grades and curvatures on a particular line whether there are distributed power units included. A stalled train on a grade is a bear to resolve for the railroad.
@@richarddrum9970 I started to go through JT videos but too many to find the 101 car video; but I did find one he put on YT Jan. 27, 2022. I was thinking about the grade as you mentioned. The NS coal train is going through Kenova WV. It's just the 1 engine pulling 123 cars. With all the hilly terrain in WV & curves, I was still surprised to see just the 1 engine & no DPUs anywhere on that train.
JT: can you start identifying the locos your filming? I’m a modeler and enjoy seeing the various places you film, but knowing engine types would help. Thanks!
Cool video JT. Gonna update the old shoe fly soon? Curious to see if the road underneath is close to being finished
Hello from the UK. May be they have decided to remove the inside of the building first (hence boarding up the windows). Then they will move the outside and build it around the inside (that will already be in its new location). To save on double handling, they will probably move and build the roof first and then relocate the external walls. Makes sense to me lol! Sounds like a plan to me!
It nice. Building. You. Got. See. Some trains
How those wheels love to sing!!
