I would love to see more trains wirh cabooses. Things really changed when tge law requiring them was repealed. When I was a kid, we used to walk to the switchyard and crawl around in the steam engines and tenders. If we were lucky enough, we would run into the caboosemen and get to sit with them with their flat top hats while they were on break or lunch and just chat. That was on the old B&O (Baltimore & Ohio) line up in northeastern Ohio. Once we even got to go way up into the control tower and watch the switchmen pull those long switchlevers to redirect the trains. That was my favorite venture. I haven't seen a switchtower since the '40's. I suspect that they were all tore down by the 50's. Every once in a while, when I see an airport control tower, I get a flashback of a railroad switchtower. Funny how the brain retains certain events for your whole life from earliest childhood to late adulthood.

Thank you for the super chat! I really appreciate your support! That definitely helps pay the gas. I am always looking for cabooses. I also remember them. There are still some switch towers around but I don't know how many are actually still in use. I want to film one. I'm going to try to find one. There is one in Danville, Kentucky, at least I think that's what that building up in the air is. Anyway, thanks for your support and have a great week !

Saturday, 27 April 2024, was another good railfanning day in Hamilton, Ohio, Jaw Tooth! You said in your description of this video that the engineer of the local that was running long hood forward was "Pretty cool how the engineer sits in the cab." If I am not mistaken, we were not looking at the engineer but that was the conductor we saw in the window. The person that we see has his left arm on the window ledge, so he is looking at the center-beam flat car behind the engine rather than looking in the direction the train is going. While I was watching this video my 21-month-old Great-grandson came into my room and wanted to sit on my lap to watch the trains. While the last train was passing the road to the Hamilton Water Treatment Plant, I was counting aloud how many tank cars, covered hopper cars etc. that were passing in front of us.
@williamphelan87797 ай бұрын
You are correct Thomas, the engineer is always on the right side (short hood forward) because that is the side that the controls are on.

It's Springtime and NASCAR is in full force. The horse racing season is about to get underway and in Cincinnati CSX was bound and determined to catch up to NS which stood for No Skips. It's so rare to see but the CSX caboose does not have a FRED on the coupler and judging by the open door someone must be riding. The huge NS train sure was a drought for boxcars but they are going back with the two frozen food cars for potatoes. Luckily the other train had passed so the other huge NS train can enter the city. Not the biggest count of trains but certainly plenty of freight cars to count
