INTERMODAL TRAINS are my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

I can remember Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad (P&LE) looked like this . my brother and I used to play on and around the yards . what great memories . Thanks for posting . as time goes by , this Rail Yard may be gone some day as well . Ray in Pa.

[@mbmars01]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and memories. However, I hope these yards won't go too quickly, though!!

[@jleveille2]

Thanks for this video I like watching the work going on in big yards like this. I'm listening to you video with Bose quiet comfort Bluetooth head set the engines sound great and I can hear your scanner much clearer. I appreciate your work.

Thanks ! I'm very happy that you like it!

[@gregh9975]

Enjoyed this very much. Old Atlantan here....remember when this was an L&N RR yard...named for John Tilford, an L&N president. I believe that Inman was named for Samuel Inman.....Atlanta cotton merchant and businessman....but could be wrong. Keep up the good work.

[@mbmars01]

Thank you! I'm happy you liked it.

mbmars01 where is the tilford yard at

[@christinesales905]

Love to see what a big part of life trains are. Really enjoyed video. Thank You

[@mbmars01]

Thank you! Unfortunately, Tilford Yard was demolished in 2018.

[@ronniewatkins]

Loved it!!! Looking forward to when you come to NW Ga. Downtown Cartersville is great because you can almost touch the trains when they come through

[@mbmars01]

Thanks so much! Actually, I have filmed in Cartersville before, the last time when 911 and 1776 came through two years ago. A few weeks ago, I was on the NS Atlanta North End District. This material still needs to be processed, though.

Enjoyed this one dated 2 Sep 2016 (my dad's bday a 100 years ago in 1916). Tilford and Inman were busy that Friday . I must have heard a train pass every 30 minutes by Fontaine Road/Cooper Lake Road and Nickajack Road. Then quiet on the Labor Day weekend.

[@mbmars01]

+Charles Ralston Cool! Yeah, it was a busy day, but not much more than usual. There are typically 60 trains per day going in and out. Labor Day saw reduced scheduled NS service because of the holiday.

Thanks! Unfortunately, Tilford isn't anymore what it was. Hump yard and shops were demolished by CSX last year.

[@iceclimberGD]

@@mbmars01 I'm very saddened by it. All I've ever seen of Tilford was a drone view as it was being demolished.

[@TheRealCryocloud]

You can see the Interstate heritage unit behind the other locomotives at 25:58. Just pointing it out in-case some missed it. Very nice videos and love all the trains you capture. Keep up the amazing work!

[@mbmars01]

Yeah, unfortunately I saw that only on my screen when I was back home. From the large distance I couldn't see it at Inman. If I would have known it while I was there, I had waited for NS 154 to move out. Thank you! Will do!

[@TheRealCryocloud]

Man that really sucks. It'll come through again someday. You're welcome!

[@mbmars01]

Ian Bowling It would have been nice to see it closer but it was trailing anyway. I'm happy to see a heritage unit, but I'm not really hunting them.

[@TheRealCryocloud]

Yeah, I don't understand while they have it trailing because they usually don't unless they have no choice. I have only seen two heritage units. 1 was the Interstate and the other was the Nickel Plate Road when NS did the NKP excursion. I recorded on my channel.

[@mbmars01]

I don't think they care much about if it's leading or trailing. I have seen several of those units trailing. Nice, I also saw the Nickel Plate some months ago.

[@ericfeick4270]

This video is after the power switches were installed. It used to be all hand throw at Inman except the class yard.. On the south end its controlled by the main tower once controlled by the old retarter tower which I worked at times before they shut it down around 2010 or 2009

Unfortunately, Atlanta has a huge car traffic problem. That's why I don't go there more often. But it's a nice city and area. I'm happy you like the video, many thanks ;)

[@ncplantdoctor]

That was really great. Back in the 70s when I lived in the area, I had occasion to see the yards but I never figured out or took the time to get as close as you did. I knew they were huge and confusing but your shot of Inman from a bridge was the only view I remember. I did not realize there was any place where you could see the sheds at Inman. I only saw them from aerial photos. Good work.

[@mbmars01]

Well, it's all shot from the bridges at Tilford and Inman. There is no other public viewing spot as far as I know.

[@ncplantdoctor]

Must have been a pretty good lens, then. I liked it, anyway. Saw things I had not seen before. Late in the video there was a shot at Inman with a confusing array of dwarf lights. The lens power probably made them look side by side.

[@mbmars01]

Yes, that's a typical effect. At extreme zooms the perspective gets lost and makes everything look located next to each other.

That KCS es44dc sounded pretty good as it was moving alone

[@gregh9975]

The defect detector announced milepost #8. I assume milepost ZERO is the one in downtown Atlanta.....near Underground....where the city actually began. The Vance AL to Brunswick GA autorack train (at 'Bridge') must have been hauling Mercedes Benz's since the MB assembly plant is at Vance, and Brunswick is MB's main US port. Once upon a time automobiles were hauled 'in the open'.....no protective sides or tops on the rack carriers. But rock throwing trackside vandals soon made protective covering on these carriers mandatory. I've watched your video several times and always see (or hear) something I missed before. Great editing. Be safe out there.....Perry Blvd , Hollywood Rd., etc. aren't exactly known to be warm and fuzzy neighborhoods.

[@mbmars01]

Nice that you discover new things the more often you watch it. I typically also see details only when I edit the videos, but not necessarily while recording the material. I know the area isn't great but I rarely go there. It's not close to where I live anyway.

[@eizzle78]

Greg H I know this is a rather old comment but my dad worked as a quality control manager for a company that supplied parts for the big 3 auto makers, he made several trips to Detroit to the ford plant, Kansas City, Janesville, WI to name just a few and I remember him telling me when I was a kid in the mid-eighties about how they were going to have to cover all the rail cars because of the damage to the cars. Sorry, you gave me flashbacks to my childhood... thanks!

Been in the Tilford yard a couple times at the REDI center. Busy place.

[@LatitudeSky]

also pointing out, the area around Tilford and Inman is... not a place you want to be in after dark, and you'd be well advised to be careful during the day, too. It's a rough part of town.

[@alexandermckay8594]

I'm amazed at how clean all the NS motive units are. BTW, does anyone know why ostensible competitors would share motive units? Why would BNSF want NS to use one of their units in a consist?

[@boredtacos19]

It makes it easier for trains to interchange with other railroads, they don't have the hassle of switching engines. Also it makes sense for railroads like BNSF and NS, (this applies to other railroads too, its just an example) because while they are both railroads, they aren't competitors; NS is East and BNSF is west. Freight still needs to move across the imaginary borders between railroads, so having efficient interchange of freight is important. Also, railroads tend not to think in the vein of "We shouldn't do this; we might be helping a competitor more than it helps us." Railroads have a lot of competition, not only from other railroads, but from trucking. They know that doing things that have little effect on themselves to harm a competitor will harm the industry, which will harm them in the long run. In short, its all in good business to have good relationships.

Very skillful filming and editing too as always, lots of variety in trains and power such as the KCS and the 2434 and its slug, and the radio chatter really adds a cool dimension to it. It's interesting how they seem to often pair a GE with an SD70.

[@mbmars01]

Cool, thank you! Such nice feedback is really a push for the motivation to produce more content like this! Yeah, I also wondered about this common pairing, but I have no actual clue why they do this.

I really appreciate it the work that goes into it, which is a lot more than just the filming part, and given the comments we all really appreciate the time you put into this so yeah a real Thank You!

[@beefs0ck911]

What is that thing coupled with the CSX locomotive at 2:00?

[@mbmars01]

It's called a slug. It doesn't have its own prime mover and thus is controlled by the lead engine. It has its own traction motors on the axles, though, and thus provides extra traction - very important for smooth operation in yards.

[@terrypaschal348]

This is one of the most awesome videos I've seen. How do you access these places? Did you work for the railroad? Have you been to the yard in Irondale, Al.? Love the video's , thanks for sharing

[@mbmars01]

I'm very happy you enjoyed watching the video! I'm not working for a railroad and all that's in the video was filmed from public spaces (there are bridges over both yards, which is cool). I have filmed at Irondale; the videos are in the "Railroad Town Birmingham" playlist on my channel main page in the "Great Railfanning Spots" section.

[@BNforever2009]

this is one super video. Loved it.

[@mbmars01]

Thank you very much 😊

[@kol6547]

I went to my local freight yard before my surgery to see some of the trains shunting cars around and trains pulling out and when I got onto the bridge to get there I saw one train shunting cars but when we parked they where just sitting there on for ten minutes, so we left and when we where on the bridge again I saw the same train shunting again it was like they were waiting for me to leave.

[@MikeInPlano]

25:08 - Do loaded container wells get humped? Or are they flat-switched only?

[@maxshelltrack9720]

No they don't get humped their no need to switch em.

[@Isotec1]

@mbmars01 In the video at 2:11,is that a small booster engine and how does it operate?

[@mbmars01]

It’s called a slug. It doesn’t have an own diesel engine, but the axles are powered by electric traction motors. In stop-and-go yard work, tractive effort is more important than horsepower, so the more axles are driven the more efficiently yard jobs can be done.

[@Isotec1]

explain to me why we see the CSX and Norfolk Southern engines hooked up together?I have seen this with other railroads.And is KCS a new railroad company?

[@osmiumtank]

Wow. Seriously impressive video. How do you know the details of the trains' manifests and such?

[@mbmars01]

Thanks! If you mean the train symbols, these are called by the crews when passing by signals or mentioned in the communication with the dispatcher. One can listen to railroad radio using a scanner.

[@realscoob2x951]

CSX’s Tilford Yard is no longer in service. The yard is completely empty but the mainlines are still used

[@mbmars01]

Yeah, it's very sad. Tilford produced a good bit of rail action here in the area.

Would you ever consider doing some railfanning on the Brunswick District?

[@mbmars01]

If I would live near that line, I would surely do. From where I live, however, it would be 4-5 hours by car. That's too much for the few trains that show up there. I would rather go to Waycross or Folkston instead. I'm occasionally in Macon, where the Brunswick Districts ends.

[@justkilian7795]

Im not from America so I would appreciate if someone could explain to me what that thing is at 2:10 on position 2 of the train. Thanks;)

[@mbmars01]

I guess you mean the slug. It’s controlled by the locomotive and provides extra traction as is particularly needed for moving large train sections in yards. The slug doesn’t have an own engine, tho. It’s cheaper to use a slug than a second locomotive.

At 2.14 mins ish, whats that battery pack looking thing behind the CSX loco?

[@mbmars01]

This is called a slug. It serves to increase traction to make it easier for the lead locomotive to get trains moving. This is particularly important in yards as there are a lot of switching moves. A slug doesn't have a diesel engine, but like the loco, it has traction motors on each axle, which are controlled by the lead loco. Of course, one could simply use a second locomotive (which is also frequently done), but a slug is much cheaper.
