5 Cop Cars Speed Over RR Crossing, What Is Going On? Norfolk Southern Radar Speed Check & Detector!

Norfolk Southern Trains Using CSX Tracks. Radar Speed Checks On Norfolk Southern Trains At The Treatment Plant. 5 Police Cars On Emergency Call Crossing The Railroad Crossing & Nearby. Railroad Radio Up Close And Defect Detector. Includes Train With DPU. These 5 Trains And Police Cars Are In Hamilton Ohio.
The first train is at my favorite railroad crossing. This is a Norfolk Southern unit train with nothing but gondola cars for hauling steel. The NS train is using CSX tracks for a few miles before getting off onto their own line. Right after that is a Norfolk Southern mixed freight train with a DPU on the rear. It will exit CSX tracks in less than a half a mile.
Then I heard a bunch of sirens and as you will see about 5 police cars went by on an emergency call. Notice that they cut the sirens before they got to the home about a block north of me. One car came from the east and you have to look close to see it turn down the road. Another car came from the south right next to me and a few other cars came from the west, going over the railroad crossing. There was some type of domestic issue just down the road.
The 3rd train is another Norfolk Southern mixed freight. We didn't get to see any runners today at the crossing but still had an interesting day.
I moved about a mile north to the water treatment plant crossing. We see a CSX auto racks train heading southbound with an empty train, the next stop is Queensgate Yard in Cincinnati. We also see the defect detector that it passes and we see my radio activate on 160.230 for the detector.
The final train is a Norfolk Southern intermodal train on Track 1. I used my radar device to check the speed of this train. We also hear my railroad radio activate as the train passes the detector. This train is pretty cool because it has a Union Pacific Railroad locomotive and is seen in the evening light. Just as you think I don't have the radar unit it suddenly pops up!
Don't miss the Live Action Pets and the slide show that comes from the video.

Hello Everyone, Hobo Shoestrings has been missing from Tennessee for 5 days now. He rides NS and CSX. If anyone sees him please call the police. He had a medical issue and disoriented when he was last seen. Thank You!

[@justins3810]

I wish we had a different way of notifying his family instead of getting the cops involved. Its never a good idea to call the cops on a person having a mental issue. Maybe just drive him to the local office and skip the escalated police encounter? I hope someone finds him safe. He's such a nice guy.

[@trainsofmichiganproduction5418]

​@@justins3810his parents got the cops involved cause he travels the rails alot

[@rhondarichmond9259]

About that green box car you mentioned. It has a BCRail logo. Per Wikipedia, that is a rail company in British Columbia, so that car is a long way from home. Had never seen that logo before so I was interested. Thanks, JT.

Do you have any guesses how it ended up so far away?

@BillyBob-im7og Leased maybe, or sold and never rebranded? Likely connected to CN?

[@guildpilotone]

There's something satisfying and inspiring about seeing 4+ locomotives pulling hard with a big mixed manifest... the kind of thing that built and still builds this nation. Thanks JT, you make my day.

[@garymessina1609]

A great day in Hamilton great catches great action great video thanks Brian

[@bradjtrains]

The radio chatter is always a good listen. I heard CSX dispatch the other day being not happy with a crew over the fuel amount. The train sat for 4 hours with a crew on board and only had 2000 gallons of fuel to go from Baltimore to Wilmington. They were unsure if it was going to make it. It was a 12,495 foot behemoth! Pray for Shoestring and pray for Baltimore!

[@JawTooth]

Wow, I have noticed that they do waste a lot of fuel just sitting. I am praying that Shoestring comes back safely. This is pretty odd

[@Carolb66]

Morning JT, Hamilton a hotbed of train action & police action too. The trains seem to be going faster than what they are sometimes it seemed it was going faster than 23mph. Great catches JT! ❤😊👍

[@JawTooth]

Thanks for watching!

[@JohnTPyle]

I fear the worst for Shoestring.

[@danb8489]

Hey jaw tooth I allways watch your videos over again. Gotta help your channel. The arm swing my favorite 👍👍.🇨🇦

[@trainman2k]

23 "Thank You, JT" to you Jaw Tooth (one for each mph on the highest radar reading) It's odd I know but I really enjoy seeing the speed of the trains. The joy from seeing the radar in this video was dampened only when I read in the comments about Shoestring. Everyone in my compound will say special prayers that he is soon located, safe and in good health. God will bless and protect all those who believe in Him

[@Arlecchino_Gatto]

Your channel is the only train channel I watch. Some other folks have good train content but I just like your style. You seem like a great person to know in person.

Hey Jaw Tooth, as of the 8pm update on Shoestring, there has been a Silver Alert issued..

Good Monday morning JT, another great video this morning. Have you heard anything on Shoestring? Have a safe and blessed week 🙏🏻

[@markwalker1144]

That NS female conductor is a brunette, and she is a friendly gal. Saw a 1 minute video. When the engine went by, she went to the window and gave the peace sign. The natives are restless! But then I've seen 5 deputies show up for a dog bite! Sometimes I think they let them paint on those auto racks cause like you said, a ladder and allot of paint. Not all the cases of graffiti just some. Thanks for the video Brian stay well roll on

[@gaborandrejszki2553]

Really nice freight trains! Great catches Brian!

I read a post that he called his folks 3am that day. He's been missing since.

[@timmyfrierson2684]

JT have you heard anything else on shoestring because something ain’t right with that story for the hospital to let him go last Wednesday in Tennessee and him being disorientated they said he left his wallet, his keys and all of his traveling gear and now this morning they put out a silver alert on him But I just got a bad feeling about this. I don’t know maybe it’s just me but anyway, my friend another great video and as always you stay safe out there and watch your back and we’ll see you on the next one.

[@billstill1794]

Many of those gondolas, even the used ones, have little or no graffiti on them. They must go out in the middle of nowhere to be loaded, unloaded, or stored. ...Hmmm, didn't know that pot ash was that heavy - it's always blowing out of my ashtray! Hope Shoestring is OK! 🙏

The trailing locomotive on the NS gondola train was looking fabulous! Why did this particular unit have a lighted number indicator at the top front? 😊 Is this something new or old? Thanks JT.

You had an enjoyable day of railfanning in the Hamilton, Ohio area on 4 March 2024, Jaw Tooth! The train action at Heaton Street was interesting to watch. You did catch some unexpected Hamilton, Ohio Police Department activity around the Heaton Street crossing. There must have been a major incident in the area to require some many police cars to respond to the area. Thank you for the additional footage at the road crossing to the Hamilton, Ohio water treatment plant. The defect detector near that crossing had a work out while you were there.

JT. The International Space Station sighted you wearing that shirt. Always fun to watch the gondola medley and near the rear note the difference between the design and also the fact they all have the NS emblem but reporting marks NS as well as AOK and WRWK. A tip of the hat to those Conrail cars as we celebrate their 48th birthday. I saw the old school bus behind you so now you have the Toothmobile to cruise Cincinnati. Blanked out windows with a slightly vistadome top and theater style seating in the back. And the parade goes on

That "Gondola Parade" starting @2:30 was fabulous...ex-Southern "gon" has quite a sag @2:30...check out that former ConRail gon @3:43...not far behind was a really unique ex-MoPac gon @4:01 (notice the "telltale buzz-saw" herald hiding in the rust...not to mention the trademark "washboard" exterior). The "Blast From the Past" award goes to the BC Rail boxcar @6:13...😲 Yikes...when was the last time I saw one of those...anything "BC Rail", for that matter??? Awesome "flashbacks" to Conrail @ 9:54 and @10:10 in the late afternoon sun...beautiful screenshots. That "chugging" (locomotive) sound you like (as do others) is classic (patented) GE (FDL) power... Here's the "tough to swallow" comment (sorry...gotta do it)...STOP highlighting / giving credit to graffiti "taggers"...this is nothing more than abusive, disrespect for property that DOES NOT belong to them...plain and simple. Just "move on" to the next video subject, and to hell with these miscreants.

NS 4685 is part of a rebuild program began in 2015 to upgrade Dash 9s to AC44C6M. Numbered from 4000-4760. looks like 759 have been delivered and they must not be doing them in order as 4685 looks brand new. Their next order 4761-4860 is already in progress with 25 being built.

No word on your friend, Hobo Shoestring?

[@JawTooth]

No, nothing yet

[@SD40Fan_Jason]

The LEDs in the flashers are operated on Pulse-width modulation. Every 10 seconds or so, the pulses are out of phase with your camera's refresh rate and so that's why it appears as though they go dark. If you slowed the video down 300x you would see that they flash about 60 times per second when they are on.

[@allenforeman5691]
