I wonder if the railroad crew gets hazardous duty pay that looks like a sketchy area to begin with the daytime and to think that job normally starts at 3 AM I know I wouldn’t want to be out there at that time in that area. Interesting video. Thank you for posting.
@@NorCaliRailroading2023 Absolutely not. There's no way there are firearms on the engines. In fact, I bet it's against UP rules to have a loaded or unloaded firearm on company property. No corporation on Earth is going to open themselves up to a lawsuit like that
In 2004, Union Pacific claimed to pay $74,000 a year starting the second year an employee worked a job like this. That sounds like what I call "Money."
@@Greensleeves94 They store that power at 4 st yard (under 6th st) and there are taggers all day and night there. Sadly a fresh paint job wouldn't last.
There are coatings that they can apply that allow the graffiti to be washed off with a pressure washer. The stuff is expensive and has to be retreated fairly frequently. I doubt UP would pay for anything like that.
That poor Union Pacific Diesel Engine with all all the painting 😭😭😔 Iff I was on taht diesel engine I will clean offf that type of painting do my best get as much of it off the train as possible But great viideo anyways thanks for posting
3:45 I enjoyed seeing the birds scatter (from a grain car?) as the locomotive bumps the cut of cars during coupling. (I spotted a tagger in that yard…but, given the location.🙄)
It's too bad that they had a tag up the locomotive, to me that just shows severe disrespect it's one thing to do the cars because that's been done forever but the locomotive. Thank you for sharing! Always enjoy great train footage!

Towards the beginning of the video where they go in and pull their first car, are those trespassers just casually walking around the yard while the crew is switching?
Chevron El Segundo gets oil from tankers anchored off shore then under water Pipeline to the refinery from Alaska, Ecuador,or The trans mountain pipeline export terminal at Burnaby B.C. Canada.
They should do a new paint job on this locomotive with the original colors and then protect it so it doesn't get touched again. Time for pride in our equipment.
It begins south of downtown Los Angeles. It then heads south towards El Segundo and Hawthorne in the South Bay. Space X, in the old Northrop plant next to Hawthorne Airport, is off camera to the left in one scene.

What a beautiful part of Los Angeles for a great rail video. Glad you survived.
It's weird seeing a locomotive with more graffiti than the cars its pulling.
I have been here so many times in GTAV 😄. Amazing video!
I agree:)

They don’t but all locos are equipped with axes and firearms in case of an emergency

Excellent video of the local!!👍👍
ElSegundo was Fred G. Sanford's favorite vacation spot... I'm glad to see it hasn't changed. 😄 Ive never seen a locomotive with graffiti until now. 🤯
Stunning piece of equipment.
nice video great footage love me some local switching but mad about they graffitie that engine
Great 📽️ video..
Someone needs to tell Union Pacific it's been past the time to repaint this locomotive...
@rodcurry6387 Judging by the amount of graffiti on it it'd be covered again as soon as they did...

Pay the graffiti artists to repaint it SP!

They wait 40 years to repaint some of their equipment. It's difficult to believe, but it's true.
Those 4 way no stop blind intersections must have seen their fair share of close calls.
Great shots, awesome video Colin!
Be safe when recording in rough areas : )

Thanks Larry! I will be safe!
Could I use this with credit?
Great video of the El Segundo Local. Thanks for sharing.

Cleaning the paint off that Diesel would be a good thing to do 6 or 7 times a week; Diesels get painted by slime balls pretty often.
This is Califronia... what do you expect?
@@BlackMan614 You said it!
Can't UP install security cameras/ motion detection systems, where they store the locomotives.
Nice shots, looked like a fun chase!

You want to work only locals like this? It's simple. Earn 25 to 30 years seniority.
The most unique crossing on the El Segundo Industrial Lead is the El Segundo Bl/I-405 on/off-ramp crossing
Nice video!
This is what we on the railroad nicknamed the Milk bone express. 🐕 🐶
16:09 People call that a "Crossover," but I heard that's wrong. I heard the correct name for it is a "Diamond."
That GP40 looks like it might have originally been an SP unit…
Answered my own question… This was originally SP SSW (Cotton Belt) #7637…
WOW ExSP into 2024 and hopefully 2025😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nothing says lack of respect like vandalizing other people's property.
This scenery was featured in grand theft auto video game 😇
UP 1469 needs a bath because it got vandalized such as Graffiti

yep. people can just do whatever they want down there pretty much
Not sure if I’m seeing 2024 or 1985 back to the future biffs world…
Does anyone know if those tankers are getting filled up or dropping off at the refinery?
They’re being dropped off. They mix the oil they drill offshore with crude oil from the Midwest to create their product
Chevron El Segundo gets oil from tankers anchored off shore then under water Pipeline to the refinery from Alaska, Ecuador,or The trans mountain pipeline export terminal at Burnaby B.C. Canada.
No cover car.
No EOT.
Getting on and off moving equipment.
All rule violations before I retired.

Where is the Weeds yard??
Looks like LA really takes pride in their city😲😲💩💩
Los Angeles has so many haters, it should change its name to "Los Devils."
i love this place in GTA V
BTW, if you’re using a digital camera, you can turn the shutter sound off. Otherwise, great images.
Mine has a mechanical shutter, it is older than most
What is history on UP1469 old EMD unit.
it's ex Southern Pacific
The two random NPCs walking through an active rail yard at 1:21 😅
Its a GTAV online server out here

What are you doing and what footage in particular would you wish to use?
that is gross to have to work in something that looks like trash. But on a video related note.. I have no idea where most of these places are filmed.

You have a serious security problem when someone can repaint your expensive train engine undetected.
