BNSF Watson Switcher at El Segundo 7-7-2022

I wasn't able to count individual notches, but that sounded like as "straight to 8" as a GP60M can go. Sounded very nice! And nearly all of those cars were loaded too.

I think you are right, I think he went right to run 8- love that EMD sound - all to infrequently heard these days! Thanks for your comment and for taking the time to watch

Love the roar of the 710g3 motors on the gp60m’s, great video!

[@b2major9th]

I agree- the sound of EMDs roaring like that takes me back to the ‘90s. Thank you for your comment and for taking the time to watch!

Great video! what time did you catch it at the diamond? I was there recently in late morning and I think I missed it...

[@b2major9th]

He came around the curve approaching the Douglas Street crossing at 11:03 AM. They do not always come at the same time. I just got lucky that day as I was out for my lunch time walk. Thanks for your comment!
