Outstanding

[@Zach_Bloomquist]

This vid has so many fallen flag predecessor cars in it! I saw multiple PC, PRR, B&O and RDG cars as well as EL and others! The GP35 was probably one of maybe 2 or 3 operating on Big Blue at this point. Very very cool. So much is gone it is great to see what it looked like to witness a PRR car in the 90s. Thank you so much for uploading this. It will be helpful when I kitbash HO scale cars in the future. The rust on the PC cars is very neat and I think would make good models.

Thanks for the great comment Zach!

Love the Flexi-flow covered hoppers

[@tommythomason6187]

Still the days of handsome four-axle hood units. Even rusty ol GP38-2's (the quintessential American locomotive) are beautiful machines.

So nice to see trains from before idiots had spray paint.

[@Conrailfan2596]

Some of the graffiti looks cool though except on the engines

[@mrjsanchez1]

Nice video, I enjoyed seeing almost all the cars without the stupid graffiti that covers them nowadays, I liked seeing most of the cars with actual logos on the sides, most of the cars currently on the rails are lease company cars with just reporting marks. The Conrail blue engines still look great!

[@400exNick]

Awesome video brings back lots of memories! Love seeing all the fallen flags.

[@Joe-d7m6k]

Whats the yellow paint on the left ends of the gons at about the 25:22 mark?? Never seen that before.

[@b3j8]

Nice shot at 3:11 of an Erie Lackawanna hopper. Not that many EL reminders left these days.

[@1990sRailfan]

EL...my all time favorite. I saw an EL hopper last year! A ballast car of course. Here's a vid featuring EL hoppers....kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnykk4J5nJJjmrM

I actually thought about adding that verse from the song at the end of the video, but with the copyright, I decided not to.

1:36 the thing on the pole right next to the line looks like a 1992 Sentry 10v2t tornado siren I have a 1992 Sentry 10v2t that I restored

[@ReadingAreaRailfan]

It looks dead now. Theres tons of cars, but usually nothings happening there. Literally 2 locos running.

[@Pocaconductor22]

Geeps are stronger than i thought

[@wolfgang548]

Many of the GP38-2's are still going on NS. I see them often in my area, mostly on locals.

[@acegardner1538]

Anyone know who that boxcar belongs to from 0:48-0:52? Looks like a state with a dot in the middle

[@jmream2618]

ACE Gardner it looks like the state of Oregon

[@mrjsanchez1]

It is the City of Prineville Railway, an Oregon short line actually owned by the municipality.
