You're very welcome, my friend.

wrong, usually theres alot of trains at 8AM on Saturdays

@@vuurvrproductions4656 well over here by my house, It’s dead in the afternoon

@@DTRProductions. says that theres always trains every hour but that seems wrong now.

Most likely indeed.

@@railgeekusa Stupid warehouses man its so annoying!

slack action between the cars because of the sudden brake application so yes

Well I dunno, I get waved at and tooted at fairly often....

At I just hope it's not to those cellphones; thanks,chris

Probably a coupler seberit

I have bc75xlt scanner

Uhhhh yes it did. That’s why it stopped so fast. EOT or a loco probably had air issues

@MARKIBEAN I'm a tractor-trailer driver, and I drive a cornbinder (International). I like the tractor, except, sometimes the airpressure is too low to switch gears in the automatic shifter transmission. There is Drive, Low, Neutral, and Reverse. Sometimes I have to park it at the dock, and then rev the engine for minutes until the air pressure in both the primary and secondary tanks is about 110 psi; Only then can I shift to Drive to leave. I love the automatic shifters except for this one nuisance point; not too much of a problem at all. It would be embarrassing at a customs booth at the border though. So how did the trains air pressure get too low ? Did he apply and let go of the brakes too frequently in a short span of time so that air was lost faster than the compressor could rebuild it ? In a tractor trailer, this would only happen when doing too many small moves in a yard, with too many frequent brake applications. On the highway, it would never happen unless you had an air leak; if it did happen one MUST PULL TO THE SHOULDER AND PARK IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE THE BRAKES LOCK UP AND YOU LOSE DRIVEABILITY.

I did not have my radio on me. I was standing on the west side of the tracks, and it's very possible that the conductor walked up and down the east side.

On NS, if the train meets certain length and tonnage requirements and the air is restoring at the rear, we don't have to walk the train.

@@NSHorseheadSD70 Well, that's NS, and it was the rule on CSX 20 years ago, but it changed in the early 00's. Maybe it changed back in the last 10 or so years as they try and get to one-man crews?

@@paulw.woodring7304 Why does it matter so much to you? You seem awfully bothered by it.

@@stevec5829 I was a CSX engineer until 2008.

Nice to know! Thanks.

No, and I don't want to speculate.

Since they travel directly from mine to power plant, it would be inefficient to stop and change out the locomotives.

From my vantage point the "bang" was pretty loud, but overall the train came to a stop without a lot of screeching.

I didn't even hear the air.

@@railgeekusa 2:25 sounds more like something burst instead of air bleeding. And maybe this section of train just got its wheels and brake shoes serviced, so it is so quite?

@@blake_edwards Yup, it sounds more like something burst.
