This is how you refuel a locomotive on the road

[@TrainiacProductions]

Wow that is really unique. Never seen anything like that before. Awesome catch and video!

[@metra160]

Yeah it was pretty crazy! Thanks once again!

[@LongmontRailway27]

I herd the whole operation on the radio, glad you caught it!
Also I saw that exact Intermodal in Longmont!

[@metra160]

Nice! Hopefully I can catch more of these refuels in the future!

[@LongmontRailway27]

That would be fun!

Hi , my job is to refuel locomotives. If you would like to know anything about the process just let me know . It’s a great job !

[@infamousy2g1]

I do this for a living it takes about 4200 gallons to fill a train. Depending how much fuel is in the train it takes about 15-30 mins for the entire process. Its crazy to see these trains up close.

Velocity Rail? Of course it was Savage at this time until A. Stucki came in.

[@amelierenoncule]

SO...they don't employ a tanker-plane !? [She asked, tongue-in-cheek.]

[@larryhicks7558]

So this is past the main part of the yard close to College Drive going out to Brighton

[@luvthetux]

Did they run out of gas? 😂

[@mrmrlee]

If I were to model this scene, how long would you estimate it took to refuel the loco from the time he connected the hose?

[@ernestwillis1300]

Those are sand or salt hoppers not grain

[@jacklazarski1362]

That’s interesting

[@metra160]

Yeah it was pretty crazy!

[@james6275]

[@camsmith7651]
