2 Trains Approach RR Diamond At Same Time! See What Happens Next! Logansport Indiana Trains TP&W

One Railroad Diamond & 2 Trains! Short Line Railroad Action & Class One Action! Norfolk Southern Railroad & Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad. Includes Epic View Of Train Coming Over Railroad Bridge Straight At The Diamond. These trains are in Logansport, Indiana. Ex Wabash Railroad crossing ex Pennsylvania Railroad. 7 trains are in this video including a night train. This was my second visit to Logansport, Indiana.
The Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad local switching train showed up first. The Norfolk Southern road freight had priority and crossed over the diamond first. This is one of the coolest things that I have filmed at a railroad diamond. Notice how quickly the second train came across after doing work on the northwest side of the city.
The video also includes a close look at the rail and we see a couple of locomotives that are switching in the small railroad yard just east of the diamond.
I tried to get different angles of the diamond to make it interesting and the video includes another night time train. This summer I have filmed more night trains than ever. Since I got positive comments on my Amtrak night train and my street running night trains, I decided to try a few more. Which train is your favorite in this video? By the way, I rode up here with Scott, @1960gambit. We were hoping to catch the evening Triple Crown Road Railer train but it was running late and didn't pass through here until a couple hours after we left. I am looking forward to returning to Logansport. Did you like the modern art that I found in town by the railroad?

October 30, 2023 in Pittsburgh US Steel manufacturing christened two converted switch engines. They were converted from Diesel Electric to fully Electric engines. The engines were removed and installed batteries in place. The commentator reported that these engines batteries have to be recharged every two to three days in that service. These engines will be used in the yards to move cars in and out of position.

The welded artwork looked like a comet entering earth’s atmosphere.

[@gbopemioyediran9384]

@the first train, the boxcars are so neat and new ! 😊

[@johngeorgegately7402]

That last train at dusk -- very cool!

[@Shawn666Hellion]

Heavy metal, definitely like the sound of steel on steel rails.

[@garymessina1609]

Loganport a small town with a lot of train traffic and with diamonds great video thanks Brian and Scott

[@ChainsawNW1218]

Man that's a busy NS line at the diamonds and good footage Jawtooth!🛤🚂🎃

[@Patric5590]

Awesome video with a dpu working hard but wait there’s more 👍😎🇺🇸🚂👍

[@fldon2306]

Logansport! Was there three-four weeks ago! Didn’t see any trains until heading down to Lafayette. Love the rumble of that EMD loco!! Thanks Jawtooth!!

[@vernonmatthews181]

Once the sun drops below the trees 🌳 the wind picks up 😮

[@ekimbrough1413]

That sculpture looks like a falling iron meteor, JT!

[@RailRide]

That grain train at 11:00 got a nice beat to it :D

[@67odenkun]

Awesome joint sounds. The most soothing sound for the train fans.

[@RodrigoSousaFerrovias]

So beautiful video my dear friend! Big like ! Have a great day, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@thomasmackowiak]

I enjoyed watching this video of your railfanning at Logansport, Indiana on 12 October 2023, Jaw Tooth! You did catch a Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad train heading east on the TP&W line. The Norfolk Southern line had a lot of trains traveling on it.

[@xavienchatman]

My local railroad just bought the TPW 1538 the end of last month nice catch!

[@mattanatior97studios9]

Well considering 6 pic has a g&w owned shortline it won't stay long

[@tokugawa12able]

Fantastic, Brian. Caught this, finally, before heading off to bed. Helps relax the mind! 😊

[@JawTooth]

Excellent! thanks for watching

[@terrywebb8636]

That was awesome coming over the bridge, I think the engineer dimed his lights for you. This was a great video, lots of live action. Thanks for sharing Mr.jawtooth

[@JawTooth]

Glad you enjoyed it. That was nice of him to dim the lights for me

[@DavidBeckerSr]

❤ me some Diamond Action! No sound like it! NEVER EVER saw 2 trains at a Diamond! GREAT SPOT! FANTASTIC DAY!!!❤ Your “Training” Videos are SUPERLATIVE!. Great Job JT!

[@JawTooth]

Thanks 👍

[@byrantcoln-gv9rj]

Thank you JT for a nuther awesome video you are the man❤

[@JawTooth]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@workingfolk]

I believe the metal sculpture was by Jim Galbreath, metal artist and owner of a metal fabrication company that was once located at that site. He also made the cool bike racks scattered around town.

[@fiddlyphuk6414]

As a bicyclist, we definitely need more bike racks!

[@LeonaRasalas]

Art work looks like a meteor ☄️

[@curtisdavis5556]

Great railfan video from the great railroad town Lodansporr, In and its great diamond action. Also, I love seeing Geeps in action. Thank you JT

[@nancyhodges444]

Sweet RR action at Logansport, Indiana, trains pounding diamonds and seeing old GP38& GP70 is always a treat. And those orange TP&W locomotives are perfect for Halloween

[@user-dj1wk1th2e]

Wou, beautiful, colourful train, my favourite 2engines at front, most beautiful they are, thank you dear Jaw. Very cool indeed! Am an old lady in England, UK, will be73 come January, and lived 2 blessed years in Greensboro, NC. Best years of my life. Blessed Christmas to you and yours!

[@davidbird4713]

The first JT video I ever watched, got me hooked.

[@davidbrown4823]

Smaller towns seem to see a lot of rail action. one has to love it.

[@brianhickey5949]

Wow! A FRED - very cool! I don't see too many of those - more likely to see the simple EOT marker.

[@JawTooth]

thanks for watching!

[@firetommy2140]

That twilight train was really cool! I can’t believe how fast the sun set!

[@JawTooth]

I know!! When the clocks are set back its going to be difficult to film in places that are a long distance

[@dreinoehl4660]

I love it when people stand in your field of view. They see you filming, but who cares just as long as they get their shots

[@SouthAlabamaRailfan]

Great video JT!

[@beulahpowell1478]

I'm always thrilled when I see my favorite NS locomotive train. What cool action today and those other locomotives were so unique too. ❤😊Made our day once again. Cool fur babies. Thanks Mr JT!❤😊 Have a great day!

[@JawTooth]

Thank you very much!

[@garymiller5937]

That was an amazing shot of the mixed freight coming across the bridge and around the curves!! Fairly long train, also, and some brand new auto racks. 😊😊😊❤❤❤. Great catch JT! 😊😊😊😊😊

[@JawTooth]

thanks!

[@PacificCoastRailfan]

I just love the sound of a train crossing a diamond.

[@JawTooth]

thanks for watching!

[@skimmer8774]

Brand new yellow UP boxcar at 3:40 Great catches today. As usual 😊 And the art work, ahem, is the comet I'm waiting for.

[@bobmeginnes324]

Just guessing, but I would say that object you were wondering about represents either a meteoroid or a comet. This was a great video, but I really enjoyed the TP&W train. I live in a town right on the track. Go Tip and Wobble😊

[@EMTRailfan]

26:41 The engineer killed the ditch lights for you. I thought for sure that he'd give you a horn salute too.

[@JawTooth]

thanks for watching!

[@trainman2k]

Jaw Tooth, this really was enjoyable for me to watch - Not sure why, but I truly enjoy trains going over diamonds, and to have two of them (with one waiting in sight) is fabulous. Your videos are great - nice and steady with easy movements - not shaky and spinning around every five seconds. Keep up the great work and keep God in your heart!

[@JawTooth]

thanks for watching!

[@leecarlson9713]

I love the sound of the trucks going over the diamond-reminds me of the sound a train car had in the days of the short tracks:the clickety-clack. I miss that sound!

[@JawTooth]

Couldn't agree more!

[@skywatcherca]

The new goal is 400,000 subscribers and Mr. JT can do it. More technical innovations please, to make the channel more interesting. Keep going.

[@Hyrev1]

Lots of good catches! Awesome video JT! Your lense lets in plenty of light..and besides night trains are always cool! 🚂🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💯👍🇺🇸

At "9:50" I was trying to work out the branding on that Flange Greaser, pity about that solar panel, don't know how effect its operation is 😮 Thanks for visiting Logansport ❤

[@jameswolf195]

FYI, the company that rolled the rail was Bethlehem Steel Corp (BSCO) at their plant located in Steelton, Pa.

[@tjtroy762]

That's a familiar sound from back in the day. We had the Penn Central cross the B&O in Troy. Wow, look at all of those bolts through that diamond. I LOVE those green grain cars. Wow, that's a old rail section. That looks like a very short curve coming into the diamond. You had a GREAT shot of that. That artwork is VERY cool. I wonder why it's sitting there? I'd like to have that in my yard. Great shot of the train coming in over the the bridge. Some great art work on those auto cars as they cruised by. I remember back in the day when they were all open. I used to love to see the new cars. Your shot in the dark was a treat. Everything looked great. You had a very productive day. Great spot.

[@busfueler]

On the local job with the Jeeps, the lead #5338 had a peculiar windshield. The center panes of glass tilted down and inwards. That's the 1st time I'd seen one like that. Neat😊

[@michaellazor5667]

I love the sound of trains going over diamonds

[@JawTooth]

Me too. I have filmed a lot of diamonds

[@grantw7946]

That Diamond is a Gem. So quiet.

[@caroldavis7169]

It’s amazing how those trains roll along so quietly

[@wilber53]

Welded rail..

[@garymiller5937]

Wow!! I love that bridge! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@JawTooth]

I do too

[@darylephillips6778]

I love that sound . The click clock that trains used to make all the time

Happy Halloween to you!

*The art work !* A meteor, A fireball, Reminds me of the Eddystone Arsenal logo.

[@kennethfuller8347]

I love the cadence of the wheels pounding that diamond. Good high def camera work, JT. Looks like y'all had a good day of railfanning.

[@garymiller5937]

The Toledo, Baltimore and Western has some pretty nice looking power. 😊😊

[@d.burdett2232]

Loganport was a huge Pennsy hub back in the day. It's a shadow of its former self with all of the mergers. The large Pennsy maintenance facility is still used for car repair by Transco

[@garysprandel1817]

Logansport is the eastern end of the Toledo Peoria & Western. It was jointly owned by the Pennsylvania and Santa Fe and ran west of there to Keokuk Iowa. For a brief period in the 80s Santa Fe reclaimed TP&W but it didn't last long for reasons I can't recall. As it stands now it only runs as far west as Peoria now with the Tazwell & Peoria handling the Peoria to Keokuk end. Also the almost tie at the diamond reminded me of an article from Classic Trains in the late 90s or early 2Ks where the Chicago Great Western and Illinois Central Iowa division literally had a tie at their automated crossing in Elmhurst Illinois in 1966 or 67. Westbound CGW freight hit the crossing circuit at the exact time a westbound IC freight ( IC crossed at an angle before heading west) also hit the circuit. As it ended up head end crews from both trains went and asked each other who had the red and when it was discovered both had a red board because they tied to the crossing circuit one of the crews called dispatch and not having a specific procedure they were told effectively work it out so who got to go first was decided by a coin flip that IC won so the circuit was reset to allow IC to proceed west where once IC cleared the interlocking CGW reset the timer and once thar ran down CGW also proceeded west leaving the railfan photographer with a tale and photos of a once in a million event.

[@blucy10]

They also own the line to Kokomo. Bought from Rail America.

[@abcde_fz]

My brother-in-law is the rail fan, but the title caught my eye today. More trains in a half-hour than I've ever seen, BUT: The coolest part was THE DOGS!!! I've never seen dogs with that kind of 'checkerboard' pattern fur. They were 'way cool', to use a phrase I've never used before. Seems appropriate for them!!!

[@markhoezee6292]

Good one tooth! That artwork looks like possibly a comet.

[@tonnage4u]

Man, that first train was what I call a dream train - tons of boxcars along with a mix of about everything. Shout-out to NS for putting that train together. One of the signatures on the graffiti at 03:28 is interesting also. Among the others, one said "FR8 CarteL." That's got a cool vibe to it.....Freight Cartel. I'm guessing that mark is spread around more commonly than we realize. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@tjtroy762]

I live less than 100 feet from a CSX main, at a crossing. I love to just sit out and watch the art on the trains. In the winter, I can watch from inside from 6 different windows. I've always thought some of the best artwork in the world goes up and down the railroad.

[@paulbergen9114]

For a smaller town that was pretty good action. NS gets the benefit of crossing the diamond first but the TP&W didn't have to wait too long. Thanks for shooting the train coming across the bridge. Because of the sun angle and the fact that it has high sides it usually eludes videos. In fact it was dark enough that was the DPU I almost missed you but the train had plenty of empty gondolas heading back East for pipe loading. Thankfully you did not get the one finger salute from the shortline crew like you did last time and if you notice the TP&W power it was like going to Winton Place in Cincinnati. The lead unit was Marquette rail in honor of that solitary boxcar that usually goes by and the second unit was Indiana and Ohio which we see leaving on their transfer run on occasion. Trick or treat and we all got treated to a JT video. Perhaps the metal ball was to portray a flaming comet.

[@michael61985]

Norfolk Southern line goes through the middle of my town and my town is smaller than logansport

[@DTD110865]

Not only that, the first NS train was pretty fast too.

[@missiontovenus123]

Tooth, You are on fire‼️ Your videos, your commentary, the sounds, and production are all the best. I don't know what I'd do without your calming, train-loving voice each day. Keep the train volume up, this is one of the most interesting diamonds. I love Muncie too. This collection is terrific. I love trains, but the hours it must take to catch 7 at this juncture sounds like ALL DAY‼️ Thanks for your hard work and talent. Stop trying to look cool. You are, but wear some appropriate attire for the advent of winter. If you pick the right spots, car shots are fine with -F* temps. Of course there's trains South too. Good Luck. Good vid!🍀🔝😎🌝🇺🇸

[@lesashiminski690]

Hey jaw tooth lots of live action son . Very busy with train traffic. Have a great railroad day,🚂🙋‍♀️

Thanks for this great video! 😀

[@michael61985]

The railroad pretty much built my town back in the 1800s from 1940s through the early 60s i had at one time 3 separate railways go through my town the Nickelplate the B&O the Erie and the ISC which was a short line and i had the interurban which was a trolly rail line so 4 different tracks in my town at once

[@richardcapellesr7031]

That steel ball is actually a asteroid on fire ready to impact the Earth😅

[@paulbergen9114]

Since the Norfolk Southern Line is X Wabash could that metal piece possibly be a take off on their passenger train which passed through here? The Wabash Cannonball

[@KPrime31]

Awesome stuff as always JT, and we finally saw a DPU! Keep up the great work!

[@JawTooth]

Thanks!

[@poowg2657]

What a difference a couple weeks makes. The weather in the video looks great while up here in Rhinelader Wi. we just got 3" of the "white death" for Halloween with a low of 13°F tonight.
