Sometimes we forget that all of this is possible because of the time, efforts, and hardship that track crews and other maintenance people put into making America's magic carpet perform so majestically!

I still say that NS heritage units just look alot better than CSX's. I will die on that hill. Dont get me wrong. I'm just as much a a foamer when they go by as the next guy, but Norfolk Southerns units just hit different. Edit: Spectacular shot at the beginning with the snow covered trees on the mountain!

Agreed!!!!! If it’s going to be a heritage unit it should look like one from front to back!

This might be the most dangerous crossing I have ever seen. It's blind on both sides
@NSCSXRailfan29 күн бұрын
Yes it is but they won’t put signals and gates there because it’s technically a private crossing even though there are 30 homes on that side of the tracks and that’s the only way in or out.

Why did they use CSX locomotives leading instead of Norfolk Southern locomotives?

Because the previous show was near a CSX line and it was headed to another CSX line destination.

Few things to point out. #1 the burst of air is the control valves discharging air.. #2 crews cannot cross a bridge that doesn't have a walkway.. #3 it's prohibited to walk between mainlines running parallel.. The rules are written in blood.. meaning crewmen have been killed.
@NSCSXRailfan2 ай бұрын
Thank you for your comments! The bridge does have a walkway on the other side of the tracks. Many years ago there was a third track on that bridge.
