Are they relaying the track on the right side below Quanico station?

I'm glad to see that "my" old track is still running (I lived in BA from '90 to '95). I've had dreams over the years that this track got abandoned.

Czy może mi ktoś wytłumaczyć, bo całkowicie na tym się nie znam, mianowicie dlaczego ten dzwon cały czas się tak nieznośnie tłucze: dzyń dzyń dzyń dzyń. Przecież od tego to głowa może pęknąć. Czy ma to jakieś racjonalne uzasadnienie? W Europie nigdzie nie spotkałem się z czymś takim, żeby lokomotywa non-stop dzwoniła...😕🤔

46:47-52: Takes 5 seconds to announce no defects. 46:56-47:01: Takes 5 seconds to call signal and arrive at Rippon. Combine it. Jesus Christ. There could be an emergency broadcast and these Keolis morons wouldn't know about it because they're too busy talking on the radio. CSX crews hate you. CSX dispatchers hate you. Amtrak hates you.

These are different from BN. These are electric, and have to fit under the catenary. BN was diesel territory without the same height limitations.

The engineer should not turn the bell on at Blue Islan and not turn it off until the train reaches the end of the line. The bell is to be used when starting, stopping, crossing public roads, and when crossing other railroads.

The bell should be shut off except for starting, stopping, crossing public roads, and crossing other railroads. Engines have bell controls separate from the horns, since bells are used in no-horn zones.
