[@charlesbennett8700]

Hmm, another snowman ☃️ train 🚂 safety inspector... Great catches Dave!!!

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Charles. Yea, that's what happens when it takes an hour and a half for the first train to show up, lol! Thanks for watching my friend.

[@willyct207]

Thanks my friend you have spoiled us with this very cool monster trains close up video!! That is the closest one would get while not being there!!

It's amazing to see all those BNSF diesel engines and rolling stock passing by, from up close. Nice work!

@@PacificNWRailfan You're welcome; keep up the excellent videography! I look forward to seeing even more!

[@paulsmith5398]

One of those "slow-motion" days..........as the manifest enters the siding, its like the scene in that old movie, "Casablanca", "Here's lookin' at ya, kid!" As for the oil train........eons ago, they called coal trains "black snakes", that would be fitting for today's oil trains. Thanks for having a lot of patience with the slow movers, and also for braving the elements filming them!

[@timmyfrierson2684]

Hey PNW they must’ve had a broke rail or something to do with that switch to have them go on so slow through there and I seen the BNSF track gang there. But anyway brother another good video so you and your family stay safe and keep the videos coming my friend

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks timmy. Yea, they had some kind of problem with a rail, they brought a new one with them. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@Sven_Okas1967]

Hurraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, the snowman is back. Nice to see how the train creeps into the opposite track. Do you have a regulation at what maximum speed you can drive? How heavy is the oil train when it is loaded? Yes I know, ask about questions. Greetings from Berlin/ Germany. Sven

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Yea, had an hour and a half wait for a train. There are speed limits for both freight and passenger trains and the speed limit depends on which section they are on. On this subdivision the maximum speed for freight is 60 mph. I really don't know what the weight of the oil train is. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@solutions2exist556]

Took the siding. Nice shot. Nice bell hello. Another good one my friend. It’s therapeutic.

[@bruceboatwright7488]

Can I ask about the hoppers immediately behind the two lead CP units and ahead of the trailing unit on the oil train? Do they serve a special purpose? Beautifully shot, as always. Gosh, but you live in some stunning country!

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Bruce, I really appreciate that. Those hoppers are "buffer cars", they were basically mandated by the FRA to help protect the crews and the help prevent fires, in the event of an accident or derailment. They are required on any train that has a hazmat load between the locomotive and the railcar. If it's a mixed freight they require five buffer cars but for some reason they allow only one on an oil train. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@hainam8614]

Oh my...If I were there, I couldnt stay there long cuz 2 trains are so long 😂; Still nice catch Dave :D

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Hải Nam and thanks for watching my friend.

[@TNandTXRailfan]

Awesome catches Dave! Beautiful snow shots and fantastic CP duo on the last train! Man, those CP units look great in the snow!

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Landon. Yea the CP oil train was a nice surprise as we don't see many of them and I just went out to video on the spur of the moment. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@charlesp3764]

Another great catch…. I’m glad I can site in my lazy boy and watch…..AAA+ All the way…..

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Charles. No doubt, all nice and warm and comfortable! Thanks for watching my friend.

[@J3scribe]

Those unit oil tankers are so impressive. Since they're mainly given priority they seldom sit anywhere long enough for some idiot to run up and tag them, so they usually look nice and clean. Excellent catch, great video.

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks J. Lewis. Most railcars are vandalized when they are sitting on a spur where the get loaded/unloaded or stored. The oil train load and unload facilities are pretty secure so the cars a not accessible. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@TheIndianRailLines]

Awesome compilation 👌 😄 ❤ 👏 👍

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Thanks Adhik and thanks for watching my friend.

[@jamesburnside3023]

By the looks of the snow amount you do not want to be on the switch cleaning crew this winter, there looked to be a MOW truck coming in.

[@PacificNWRailfan]

They have covers that go over the switches to keep the snow out and the rails around the switch are heated. The MOW crew was there to replace a rail in the switch, that's why there was a slow order for the trains. Thanks for watching my friend.

Frage 1 wie viel PS hat eine Lokomotive ? 2 Frage wie lang ist so ein güterzug? Dankeschön Für die schönen Bilder... Snowman ☃️☃️ohne CAP greetings from Germany Rhein side

[@PacificNWRailfan]

Danke Heinz, das weiß ich sehr zu schätzen. Die Pferdestärken variieren je nach Modell der Lokomotive, aber die meisten in diesen Videos haben eine Nennleistung von 4400 PS. Die Länge variiert je nach Zug, aber der durchschnittliche Zug ist etwa 2407 Meter lang. Einige der Stapelzüge und Manifeste sind bis zu 3048+ Meter lang. Danke, dass du zuschaust, mein Freund.

Looks like there is a signal maintainer on the job by the signal.⛄

It's a track crew. There was a bad rail on the switch that need replacing. That's why they had a slow order for the trains. As soon as these two trains passed, they replaced the rail. Thanks for watching my friend.
