HOLY CRAP! - Record Breaker At HORSESHOE CURVE / Unbelievable Catch

Holy Crap! Are you ready to witness a possible Record Breaking Train at Horseshoe Curve? If so, this video is for you!
Welcome back to a new video and day 2 of my Altoona, Pa meetup. Today brings us to the World Famous Horseshoe Curve where myself and many others will climb the 194 steps to reach the viewing area and witness one of the LONGEST trains I've ever seen. Before heading to the top, overcast skies and low clouds offered some nice visuals from the sky. I also met a viewer of mine who wanted to be in the video. All in all it was a great time at this iconic location. So let's check out Horseshoe Curve for my day 2 meetup in Altoona. Enjoy

A BIG special Thanks to everyone who attended this weekend. Be sure to check out the links to the other channels to see their videos from this weekend.

Thank you for putting together this awesome two-day meetup. It was one of the highlights of my year.

That little guy made his day X

[@prrrailfanbryce2878]

Thanks for putting me in the video

[@dhtisme7034]

I remember as a kid the only way to get up there were the steps. There was no gift shop, no fees. Years later they added an ice cream stand. If you drove thru the tunnel there & went up the mountain, at the top was a zoo called Forest Zoo. Also, across the road was a park called Fairyland Forest. The theme was all about fairytails. No rides, just alot of things for kids to climb on & do. The longest train I remember seeing as a kid was where the front of the train was already going around the side of the mountain & the tail end hadn't even made it around the other side of the mountain yet. A lot of great memories. Thanks for reminding me. 👍👍

[@palyba1]

Amazing video JP again! Love the area and that train!!! Wow!! Just amazing! Thank you for taking me!

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure. Thanks for watching.

[@yankinga]

I don’t know how you can claim that Horseshoe Curve is the only place where you can hear that sound. As a railfan I have heard that sound in hundreds of locations. Your drone shots are phenomenal.

[@catherineengle4196]

WoW it is breathtaking at the curve in summer. Absolutely beautiful! I can just imagine the colors the trees will be in fall. 😃

[@WeatheredRails]

very nice. the reason why that second train had 6 locomotives on the head end is because the 4 behind the two were DIT Dead in Tow, meaning they are not running and they're only being moved. though it is nice to see a 6 engine lashup

[@quantumtruthseeker210]

Was just there last Friday. Three engines in front, one in the middle, and two at the back pushing with a total of 185 cars. First time there and what an amazing sight and experience!!

[@gaylespencer6188]

In the 1940s, with the traffic caused by the war effort, it was typical to see 250-300 trains per day. Think of that. At that time there were 4 sets of rails. Trains galore. Steam locos working like crazy. Train Watching Heaven.

[@easynhonest]

Back in the 80's there was NO fence so you had complete access to the whole curve for some great photos . Many people and myself included , put coins on the track to get a memento from the curve trains . Unfortunately some people were getting much too close for comfort while others seem to be playing chicken with the trains by standing on the tracks for some head on photos . That conduct lead to the fence being erected .

[@bextar6365]

[@CentralPaRailfan]

I've only remembered the fence, not a time before it. Doesn't stop everyone tho, there was a guy Christmas day that DROVE up the mountain between the tracks!

Didn’t need to one putting coins on the track. Let a wheel hit a coin at the right angle and you have a bullet.

What great drone footage ....here there Rj78 .. wow a lot of locomotives on that train

[@cabamama]

What a great video! That is such an awesome place. And that beautiful cloudy morning turned into an even more beautiful sunshiny day. I really love the sounds of steam locomotives and Horseshoe Curve makes for very good accoustics! The best shot was the 360 wrap-around view of the train entering the curve and exiting the curve. Totally awesome!! Thanks for taking me aong. I really enjoyed this outing.

[@JPVideos81]

I agree. The sounds bounce off the mountains and everything is amplified. Thanks for checking out the train action.

[@punchfisttop]

LOVE yer Conrail tshirt!

[@thunderbird1921]

Fun fact: During World War II, Horseshoe Curve was from what I've read given special monitoring because they feared German spies and saboteurs would target it (due to how critical the Pennsylvania RR mainline was to American logistics and industries). Really puts in perspective how vital rail infrastructure was to America and the Allies winning the war.

[@dr.leonardhofstadtersavage6413]

I love the sound of horse shoe curve, but 194 steps wow! That's to much.

[@cabamama]

I'm thinking the SAME thing. I remember walking up the steps in the Washington Momument years ago. It has 896 steps!! But now, there is also a high-speed elevator.

[@JPVideos81]

It's worth the climb. Slow and steady haha

Hats make it worse in the humidity for me. But to answer your question, I think it depends on the person. For me it's the size, the sheer power and witnessing it in person is an incredible feeling.

[@Romans--bo7br]

Why do I increasingly see and read the term "Driving" in relation to locomotive engineers?!? Engineers Do Not "drive" trains.... they do Not, and cannot.. "Steer" a train to go in whatever direction they want it to go, nor operate the throttle and braking system to speed up or slow down / stop.... whenever and however they choose to, as when "driving" a personal or commercial vehicle. They "Operate or, Run" it, in full accordance and compliance to prescribed schedules and FRA & Company mandates.

Holy crap is right. I've never seen a train set up with 6 locomotives with 2 pushers, must have been a long, heavy train. Loved the intro drone footage Jay. Maybe throw a hat in the camera bag to save your noggin from burning, not a pleasent feeling 😌. Thanks for more coverage of Horseshoe Curve 👊👍

I usually have a hat, but the humidity makes it almost intolerable to wear one.

Love going to the Curve. I used to be a delivery driver out there and watched the trains going into and out of town as I drove on route 22.

Loved the drone footage and music at the beginning especially. Never saw a train with 6 engines pulling before; very nice; thank you!! …🌝

[@nscalecoal]

only the first 2 units were pulling, the other 4 was probably dead in tow to Conway

[@shadetreeforge]

Watch the virtual Railfan channel when they do a "Grab Bag" video, almost every grab bag will have a massive BNSF power move that can sometimes have 25+ engines as they transfer locomotives within the system

[@n-scaleunionpacificevansto6569]

JP, the funicular has been "down" forever, and it's still not working. That's a really big disappointment for me, since I have been planning to go there this September, and 194 steps is a lot for an old fogie like me. They don't seem to be in any hurry to get it fixed. ...Roy

I'm going to be driving over to Parsons, KS. to catch the UP 4014 ("Big Boy") on it's 2021 tour leaving out of Cheyenne... This morning, actually... at 8:00AM (Mtn. time).... anyway, it will be on an over-night layover in Parsons, KS (nearest point, for me.. about 2 hours drive).. arriving at 4pm (Central time) Wed. evening, Aug.11th. Thinking of getting a motel room for the night, then I can film it leaving out the next morning (Thurs.) at 8AM... heading to Texas. I was on the UP's 3985 and the 844, several times.. years back when Steve Lee was running the steam program and was the "hogger" on both of those locomotives... though the 3985 was "his baby". I use to hang out in the steam shop there, and turn wrenches once in a while as well, when I use to live out that way until 2011.... great times and memories, for sure. After I go see the 4014 at Parsons, am heading to Charma, NM to get on board the narrow gauge Cumbres & Toltek RR and head up to CO. on it. I love Narrow gauge steam and have wanted to do this for years, finally heading over there..... want to come with? lol Sorry, shouldn't "tease" you like that..... but it sure would be great to share things with someone who has mutual interests... makes whatever you do, a Lot more enjoyable... as I'm sure you know that, already. : ) One of my great uncles was a steam locomotive engineer back east on the old Boston & Albany RR, which later became the NY Central RR (then Penn Central)... anyway, after he retired in 1953, he became the first steam "tourist" railroad engineer for the Ocean Spray Cranberry narrow gauge which opened in 1955. I had three uncles on my dads side who were also RR men... two were engineers, one on the New Haven and one on the Penn Central, and one uncle... a conductor on the New Haven RR (freights). I was a head-end brakeman out west, for a year, then "OJT" as an engineer.... until my "better" half (at the time), gave me an ultimatum one evening after I was "paged" to go out on a training run.... saying, "it's either the railroad, or us... your decision before you get back in from this run"........... I should have stuck with the railroad. : ( Anyway, now... I enjoy railroading anyway I can get it, and no one to tell me I can't. : ) Have a great and blessed day, Gini.

I would like point out a couple thing, 1 the sound of squealing flanges can be heard else where, it not just reserved for the horseshoe curve. and 2 if you want to see monsters go west of Conway (Pittsburgh), NS is moving 15 to 18000 ft trains west with mid train DPU's. I videoed a 13Q coming down Wooster hill on the Ft.
