As a retired Conductor i can tell you that when reporting for work you get a profile and a set of orders for your consist.If work trains are out you must radio call the track supervisor within two miles of their limits to see if you can pass even if you have a favorable signal.Also there could be speed restrictions or lifting of restrictions.Those trains seemed to be going awful fast for passing working crews.We usually slowed a bit no matter what so we can eyeball their equipment and visa versa.CSX

[@WideWorldofTrains]

The work foreman of the track crew gives permission as the train crew asks for the permission to go by. In this case the foreman probably gave them permission to go at maximum authorized speed for his train. Before the train goes by the foreman will call all of his workers and they will confirm that they heard the foreman letting them know that a train will be coming on the other track

My Granny worked spreading ballast during WW2 on the CPR line in Ontario. The train car had a disk on an arm out the side to mark the line for the edge of the ballast, and the stones came out a chute on the bottom of the car. She had to rake the stones to match up with the disk mark. Then an Inspector walked the track with her and her partner, another local woman. If there was a stone past the line he'd point with his cane and they had to rake it up, and if there was an empty spot with no stone above the line, they had to rake stones down to cover it. She said the train tracks almost looked like a city park when they finished up.

That’s really cool!! I grew up next to a switchyard as a kid, until I was 23, in Danbury Connecticut. It was back in the early 70s. Because of the position of the yard, and the fact that it was in the middle of the city, I was always exited whenever we had to stop at a crossing. My dad would be a little impatient, but I was intrigued. The old yard still exists, but it’s a museum now, and lacks the old time glory! I live two towns away from where I grew up, and there’s an old line that’s tied to the old yard, but it’s owned by a small company that , to me, only serves this short stretch. I don’t get the chance to stand next to the tracks, and watch in a mesmerized state, as the long line of cars go by. I’ve purchased a bunch of HO train sets, with the thought that I could experience that feeling again, but they’re all sitting in my attic, for that “someday “ when I can recreate it. Thanks again for the inspiration!!

Have always loved trains. Thanks for bringing back good memories for this old man. Am 70 now. Back when I was in my 20s, I had my dream job. I got a job working at ElectroMotive Division (EMD) in LaGrange, Illinois where I started out in the Paint Shop Wharehouse and then on Final Test Department. Seeing the locomotive engines in your videos brought back good times. Got to occasionally get to ride short distances with an engineer as we would test out an engine that was near completion before final shipment to the buyer. On weekends, would go out and watch Burlington Northern passenger trains making runs from Chicago out to Aurora, Illinois where I lived. By counting the number of engines, could have an idea how long the train was going to be. Figured one engine would pull about 75 freight cars. I also took vacations to Pennsylvania and would watch trains travel along Horseshoe Curve. That was a long curve where you could be in the engine and had made it up the long haul amd then turn as you made the way down and could see the caboose that was still coming up the grade. Used to have timetables so I could know what train was where. Would enjoy seeing the Denver Zephyr heading from Chicago to Denver blowing through Naperville, Illinois and scaring the hell out of this youngster as the gust of wind nearly blew me from my feet.
