Worlds Fastest Freight Trains!! 1st Train Blew Me Away! Abandoned Coal Power Plant, Frozen Trains!

You Won't Believe How Fast This First Train Passed Me! Train Blew Across The Railroad Crossing and almost blew the camera out of my hand! 3 Fast Frozen Trains and an abandoned coal fired power plant that the railroad use to switch. These are CSX trains in Ohio. I spent the day looking for fast trains and these were the fastest that I found and they are in order of fastest first. How fast do you think these trains are going? It was about 26F with some snow flurries and these trains really kicked up some wind. The first 2 trains went by so fast that the wind from them made my fingers feel frozen. They were filmed near Carlisle and Miamisburg, Ohio on February 12, 2022.
Thanks for watching! If you have time, please watch another video of mine to help keep my channel going. Every view helps support my channel. Viewing time helps pay for gas, motels, rental cars etc. I have a list of places that I plan on filming so watch another video of mine if you have the time.

Back in the summer of 1969, I saw a freight train come up along side us where the tracks were about 100 ft from the interstate and my dad had to accelerate to 85mph to match it’s speed. And this freighter was so damned long, we couldn’t see the end of it looking out the rear window. That thing was MOVING. There were 9 engines in the front and God only knows how many more were further back toward the middle and rear. What a sight that was. Never forgot it.

[@KingKidKobra_]

What railroad was it?

That is awesome! Thats what Im looking for

[@Oskarsgaminglife]

I found a video of freight trains going way faster😂

[@johnpapa1916]

What kind of engines were they . Even the new freight diesels are geared for 75 mph and I'm an old man that even remembers the men in the shacks that helped stop traffic. I just missed the end of steam !

You know it when you say that wind from the train is cold! I once filmed a 60MPH train in the snow and the actual air temp was 10 below zero! That was the coldest I ever felt-trains of no trains!

Greetings from an African resident in Europe. I appreciate your efforts to shoot these images to train lovers in US and world viewers. I am some how familiar with North America Geography, Topography, Végétation, Rivers and Lajes. Because, during my collège time in Nigeria, our regional Education Board made it Madatory for each collège in my State, should introduce the geography and history of another continent Outside Africa, for finalement nous Year students. So we studied North American geo. and hist. Secondly,your colorful shirt outdor In winter gives thé impression that you confounded Bahamas, Namibia and Jamaica with cold season in United States or Canada. Great Job !

[@hardrays]

oh, yeah. half of us refuse to get winterized because the nature of the jet stream east of the rockies is such that it oscillates, vacillating from polar to gulf/caribean or how its spelled. 17 degrees today, 70 degrees in a few more. gets you just sick enough to keep your immune system in order.

[@train1962]

Those first two trains were quite quiet and smooth considering how close to the line you were.All three trains were getting with it.Nice work.

[@KGSnow2]

Back in the late 70s - early 80s, there was a coal fired power plant in Eastlake, Ohio serviced by Conrail. The railroad maintained a wye coming off their mainline (specifically, the "north control track" - so called because the switches were controlled by the dispatcher) There was a local job called the Willoughby Turn, and the crew for this job had three GP38 locomotives (occasionally one or another would be a GE dash-7) They would go out on the main line toward Cleveland, get the 100 car coal trains parked on a south siding a few miles away, and then bring the train back to the wye, where they would clear the eastern points and then back the coal cars down to the power plant, which was on the shores of Lake Erie. The conductor used his own vehicle to race ahead of the back end and flag crossings in the area. They would break the train into sections at the direction of the plant management, and put the sections into holding tracks in the power plant's yard. They would pull empties out and return them to the Collinwood yards in downtown Cleveland. I became friendly with the crew, and learned much by talking with them. They are long since retired, and Conrail is gone, so I may safely say that they gave me a few cab rides during that period. Your power plant images reminded me of all this. Thanks for sharing.

[@mfd14c13]

I lived on Campbell Road in Willoughby in the early to mid 70's and can remember Penn Central running F7's to power coal trains into that power plant before Conrail came into existence! I never got any photo's during that period though. I could kick myself for not realizing what was happening when Conrail came to be. Lots of colorful lashups for sure!

[@KGSnow2]

@@mfd14c13 Thanks for your comment. I wish I could have seen that! My friend and I only discovered the whole operation by chance, as we were out train watching.

[@plnbuf1]

Hey JT, it looked like a 100 ft gondola car was going by your spot in 1 second. 100 X 60=6000 X 60=360000 feet in an hour. Or 360000 divided by 5280= 68.18 MPH. In that ball park, but 60 is probably their speed limit. Thanks for the great footage! Probably a better guide is to use the CSX AutoRack at 89', 4". Which would have been 60.68 MPH if it passes by in a second........

[@cp368productions2]

There are no 100' freight cars.

[@hifijohn]

in the first train the 57 ft grain hopper took .84 seconds thats 45 mph. in the second train the center beams took 1.12 seconds that 43 mph.

[@ScottHBrown]

Track speed is 50mph in that area.

[@perchlarkin]

@@hifijohnpeople think they're much faster then they actually are.

[@brianhickey5949]

That first train looks a lot like a WWOT train - they always travel at speed! Second train had a bunch of coil steel cars - haven't seen that many in some time :) Coal power plants are interesting. An operating plant has a massive coal pile (brought in by trains and dumped) and they have to constantly estimate how much coal they have so that they can maintain 100% power generation. If you have ever seen them unload a train - it is very cool! I am beginning to believe that JT is not affected by the cold at all. He says he's cold and yet he has a short sleeve hawaiian shirt and an open lined jacket. He didn't even wear his Yooper hat in this video :)

[@ed777tx-edward8]

Yes, high-speed freight trains make plenty of wind. The fastest freight trains we once had in Germany ran at 160 km/h. However, the German Bahn discontinued these trains in 1996 due to alleged lack of demand. The fastest freight trains currently running run at only 120 km/h. In France, mail is transported at night with TGV ́s. These TGVs are then considered freight trains in France. These TGVs are travelling at a speed of 200 km/h between Paris and Lyon. Nice catch. Greetings from Berlin/ Germany. Sven

[@miketravels]

160 km/h is about 99 MPH. Awfully fast for freight

[@ac.6667]

Cool info man thanks 👍

[@arbjful]

the passenger trains are also very fast. I was in Hannover two years back, it was March abs was still cold. I was standing in a station when a DB went past at top speed, the cold wind was so sharp and biting it went right into my bones

[@mbr5742]

Even the 120kph is not used by many. Most go around 90-100kph. They are also shorter, the maximum length is 750 meters.

Add in the wind chill generated by those trains and it's even more uncomfortable. Seeing those aluminum ingots there was a good segment on Discovery Channel showing how it's squeezed down in 200 passes which makes two coils. Then with a sharp blade set for 1/1000thñ youre looking at over 2 miles of foil..There were also two extremely large coke hoppers. Looking at their cylindrical bottoms I'd love to see the rotary dumper they got thru. Gotta love the expression on Chessies face after the Norfie tussle

[@scottynails]

The power plant provided electricity to the underground military complex that made parts for nuclear bombs during ww2. The place was cleaned up in the 90’s and is rented out to commercial space. But driving by the place you can see the entrances to underground bunkers. It’s called MOUNDS PARK in Miamisburg Ohio. Cool cool place

I’m guessing those trains were doing about sixty, probably set for 59. I think it is pretty rare to run GM trains faster than that. I have seen the UP run double stacks up to 79 across parts of Nebraska, which I always thought was odd since there is a max speed sticker in many locomotives that says 75. I’ve ridden freights on both the UP and BNSF that went as fast as 71 MPH. It’s loud;) Thanks for cool, literally, video!
