Hey jawtooth that was a good way you told your viewers to look up "sundown towns". It surprised me that some folks didn't know that at one time during segregation and jim crow that i would not have been able to work as an engineer or conductor, i was proud to know that my late grandfather was one of the first crop of black men that were in the train crew ( he worked for Chicago,Burlington, and Quincy and when they became Burlington Northern, he retired 12 years before the merger) Just glad i was never raised to hate anyone. As always this BNSF conductor enjoyed the video!!

there are still some sundown towns in southeast KY Southwest VA West Va and East TN. Sneedville, TN is a great example

[@Og-Judy]

Most of today's white population ancestors came from western Europe after the Civil War had concluded. Blacks were always viewed with suspicion as heathen uneducated jungle dwellers. Long before Jamestown Virginia, Spanish tried starting a colony with slaves in 1525 in what's today's Georgia. Many of them escaped to Indian tribes in the area. Many early slaves including Jamestown were the results of British privateers "pirating" slaves from French, Spanish, Dutch and Portuguese slave ships going to the Caribbean Islands and South America. Most of the northern states population was early German and Polish and Scandinavian settlements. Why do you think "employed" colored people had the lowly jobs. Glad you enjoyed being a conductor. Not a job many white men fought to get, along with janitors maids housekeepers and other "grunt" job positions likely held by Blacks. Sundown towns are still around here in Wisconsin where demographics have Blacks at

Thank you for sharing! As an NS employee at corporate in Atlanta, I never knew “Street Running” was even a thing. Yes, the first train was a grain train or unit train. The second one is what we call a mixed freight train, and because it was so short, it was probably a local train, instead of a road train, but it could have been a road train. Again, good stuff and thanks for sharing.

Hi i am Brazilian. The possibility of travelling to USA and seeing all these marvelous places is minimal. So, thank you for this. The USA must be the most underrated geographical wonder in this world. I know that Brazil is known as having natural beautiful places , but the more I see the more I disagree. I actually have been in Houston in 2002, I had to stop in Dallas, so I saw it from the high above and seemed as a land of wonder. I would treasure the natural beauty and culture that is today the American land, if i were you before travelling abroad.

[@JawTooth]

Yes, I agree. I love travelling around the USA and filming trains. I have a list of places that I would love to see. I would also like to see Brazil and film your trains. Texas is a huge state with a lot of good trains. I was in Fort Worth for a week a long time ago and a couple years ago I was in Houston and filmed their airport train. Thanks for watching my videos!

[@Daniel-um9ye]

@@JawTooth thanks. I will be following your videos now. I love trains. However, most trains in Brazil are to transport cargo, but I think only small lines exist that transport people.

There are two in Ireland. One's in Dublin Port. I think that the only trains on it are the aluminium ore trains from Tara Mines. Dublin Port has a lot of container traffic and also a fair few foot passengers on ferries to Wales and France, but there are no passenger trains and I think no intermodal trains. The other is in Wexford Town. Trains from Dublin to Rosslaire Harbour run right along Wexford Harbour in the middle of town. That line is mostly DMU passenger trains. I know that there used to be intermodal trains out of Rosslaire Harbour (and Waterford Harbour nearby), but I don't think there are any more.

[@ghunter182003]

Yeah, that building looked sketchy. Who knows what it was used for and if it’s still being used. But that Victorian style house was just beautiful! I love those types of houses. Great train video as always, JT!

We've only lived here for a year and that first victorian house you showed always makes us laugh when we drive by, but we hope they fix it up because it's looking rough from the outside. That spooky house, we wonder about that one a lot. I wonder if it was a hospital of some sort or a school maybe when it was originally used. Very odd place for sure hahaha.

I was told that they had problems with people thinking it was still abandoned. There are dozens of those old Victorian style houses all over town. There was a natural gas boom in the 1800's, so there was a lot of factories and money in Elwood, until the gas ran out. And Elwood was originally named Quincy, not Duck Creek,

Wow, that must be so much fun for the residents living on that street. Handsome host.

[@DardanellesBy108]

Just found your channel. An awesome amount of train videos. I’ll be checking them out. --- Oh my, I always thought Sundown Towns were retirement towns. I finally looked it up. Now I know. --- UP and BNSF in my area of the US. I love seeing the NS locomotives, which show up here occasionally. I really like the paint scheme with the horse on front.

When I worked for Florida DOT back in the 70’s crossing rights were a major issue. The courts essentially ruled that who was there first had a majority of the rights. When costs associated with a railroad crossing came into play, if the railroad was there first then they only paid 10% of the costs and DOT or the local municipality paid 90% of the cost. The reverse applied as well. Major crossings costs could easily go into six figures or more if the the crossing was large and/or complex. Hearings sometimes got pretty heated.

GREAT,.. just what I need on a Sunday morning ... a TRAIN blasting it's horn.

A morning alarm, why not. You don't have to think to set it up in the evening - it's going to horn anyway.

Great big Road Engines, Six Wheelers. A 100 Car Grain Train and a good old mixed Freight train. Good Stuff. I worked as Clerk for the N&W out of Toledo in the 1970s.

The North-central Indiana towns around Elwood, back in the early 20th century and especially during the 1920s, were often referred to as Sunset or Sundown Communities. This vicinity of Indiana was the 'hotbed' of the KKK (Ku Klux Klan). African Americans, by law, were not allowed to be seen within the town limits after sunset or before dawn the next day. There you go, Brian, I stated it for you.

My family is from there. Absolutely true. The Silver Dollar Tavern was their meet up. Elwood is a strange town.

I've been there plenty of times and not once have I seen any african americans. Anyone who knows about elwood knows about its history

[@irish00011]

@@kelton7337 Well. all of those communities were like no Blacks after sunset. But there were other Indiana cities and towns as well. Even in the Northeastern part of the state, such as Adams County, I.E., Decatur, the County Seat had sunset laws back then.

Totally cool. I grew up with street cars running up and down my street in front of my house. It would be fantastic to live on that street.

That would be cool!

[@1018Video]

So if the railroad companies own 6' on either side of the track, are you trespassing when you park on that road? Or even drive on it? 👀

[@onemercilessming1342]

Why would anyone want to build next to a railroad? Your children couldn't play outside safely, there was other traffic going through, the train noise was deafening, the vibrations from the running trains put cracks in walls and foundations. The smell was nauseating, and the horns were loud. If there was a derailing, your home could be wiped out, perhaps with you and your family in it.

[@timothyevans7661]

I am surprised they are going that fast in a residential area

Who's the genius that allows street parking with the bonus of no train speed restrictions. What happens when it's garbage day and the truck and train meet? That town has a weird vibe to it.

I’ve grown up in north east ohio, the Akron-canton area for about 21 years now, I’ll be 30 in 2 years. I have family out on the west side of the state and they had plenty of train tracks in back yards and such but never have I seen a setup like this where there are houses built facing the track, it’s wild to me

I am in my sixties now and I was thinking the same thing. I remember playing "street baseball". I bet selling a house on that street is a hard sell. You sure don't want to let you kids play in the front yard. How does it work if you need an ambulance when a train is passing by? I wonder if a train comes by at two in the morning blowing that horn?

That whole the railroad tracks were there first is also a thing here in my hometown, my town is port town so there's also pair tracks in the street from a long time ago (luckily the street is more wider than the one you were at in the video) that lead to port and all the way back to the junction to the mainline.
