Nice video. Those signals are slowly being replaced from Riverton Jct. to Roanoke. PTC hardware being installed at some of the interlockings. Better photograph those signals on the H-line while you can.

The 4 car consists on the Crescent originated in Birmingham on days the Crescent did not come from New Orleans. The train ran tri weekly to from New Orleans, the other 4 days a week to from Birmingham. The Birmingham trips were cut in 1975, the year non Amtrak passenger operators could seek to join Amtrak or file with the ICC or state regulators to terminate their passenger service.

Why do they have these dumbass diesel's hooked up the the 611. The 611 has proven again and again she can pull a line of cars on her own and get back and forth with out the aid of being pushed or pulled by a dumbass Diesel like the Big Boy has to be.
@Uno_611
@Uno_611 Жыл бұрын
It’s because 611 is not equipped with PTC, in which only diesels have it, and she can’t run on her own. That’s why she was being pulled by a diesel. PTC is basically a safety measure in trains to prevent accidents involving signals However the VMT has considered putting PTC on 611.

If these excursions are going to be regular things, I hope Buckingham Branch can built some turning facilities and passenger equipment servicing facilities. Their regular excursion train is literally just one car and a diesel, and this is a lot more substantial than that.
