Fast Diesel Trains!

They're not the fastest trains in the country, but they still fly all over the U.S! It's Fast Diesel Trains! Come along for a look at several passenger and some freight trains pulled by diesels flying down the track! I wasn't able to record the speeds of all the trains, but as good as I can estimate, these trains are all moving in the range of 60 to 90 miles per hour, with many of the passenger trains toward the upper end of that range.

[@Loulovesspeed]

While I love trains in general, the most stimulating aspect of them is the haunting, penetrating sounds of diesel air horns! Several years ago, I was on the deck of a boat on the lower part of Lake Champlain enjoying a cigar and cocktail at just past midnight, when I heard the distant sound of the Montrealer's air horns. To me, a magical, wonderful sound that has no equal.

[@agems56]

[@rictrexell2118]

In Feb. 1952 my grandparents, living in the small town of Wautoma, Wisconsin went to the railroad station and caught the train which took them to Oshkosh, then Chicago and then to California to see their daughter. Then to Oregon to see her brother. While in California they got a call saying that I was born. Today you would have to drive to Milwaukee or Appleton to get a plane that would take you to Chicago. This was true of many little towns around here. For example, Wautoma is still only about 2000 people in the city, but because it is a tourist town, there are many more around there. The RR was taken up when I was in high school. It is sort of sad that in those days a person could go just a few miles to a RR station and go anywhere, but now you have to travel by car so far, you might as well drive to your destination.
