[@train1962]

That night shot of the small local was nice.The PanAm boxcar was a nice bonus.Don't see many PanAm things around here.Thanks for putting the video together.

[@JawTooth]

Thanks Steve! I bought a Pan Am boxcar in HO. Not many people realize that they were an airline at one time

Hi Mr.Jawtooth, Great video, those were some nice old signals, very surprised to see them still in service. I can remember as a kid, visiting the grandparents, having to open and close gates. The good old days, gone forever.

[@chrishauser5505]

Great catch on that old signal getting knocked down, JT!!! LIVE ACTION, BABY!!!

[@redbarnz]

The Heritage signals were awesome! As always... fantastic LIVE ACTION!!!! But wait... there's MORE!!!

[@lateefcarrere1649]

Crossing gates that play "chicken" w/drivers, old school signals, a #PanAm boxcar...never a dull video w/Jaw Tooth! Thanks! #ButwaitTheresmore

[@TheWaveanalyst]

Great shots of the operating trilight signals. I spend a lot of time modeling signals and always enjoy seeing a train knock one down to red.

[@russ8487]

I just love it when I find videos taken in my hometown/backyard. I have rail-fanned at Cooke Rd. many times. Great video. Keep 'em coming!

[@JawTooth]

I was supposed to go to Cooke road on Tuesday but we spent too much time in Circleville and didn't make it.

[@colin5296]

Great ,never seen them signals operate , i love the glow off the old stuff , i wonder if the new gear will last that long .Great work there Friend .

[@dmorgan28]

That was an awesome video. I really like that night train shot. Enjoyed it. Thanks 👍👍👍❤️

[@DarkVoidIII]

it looks like the lone engine switching was aware of the crossing gate problem, as they were taking it slow and easy! :D Last thing any locomotive driver wants to be doing is filling out incident forms! :D

[@jeffreyg3831]

Nice video Brian! I like how you were able to video the train at 16:46 knocking down that signal.... green.... yellow....red!

[@JawTooth]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@erikmcc804]

awesome catch JT, i loved the lighted old USS signals. Now that is LIVE ACTION!!!

[@pattyallen1037]

Keep up the good work

[@bekleidungu.ausrustung7068]

Loved those old working signals. Over the past few years Norfolk Southern and CSX have been replacing block signals that have stood for several decades with modern signals that all look alike. Many of these older signals featured designs that associated them with a previous owner/operator of the rail line in question. For example, the Pennsylvania Railroad and Baltimore & Ohio each had distinctive position light signals that immediately said “Pennsy” or “B&O” on their respective territories.

[@62ejo]

Thxs Jaw love the radio in the videos,and the blocks signals changing.....

[@punchfisttop]

LOVE those old signals!!!!! Better than the lame O darth vaders! AND a PAN AM boxcar!!!! Great vid man!

[@Mark-iy4no]

Didn't realize pan am was worthy. Living in Massachusetts it's kind of boring . See them all the tine

[@Mark-iy4no]

Nice to see the old code line still in existence . Like the old signals too ! Nice catch , jt !

There was no running the red at that crossing ! Bit of a special treat Jawtooth -thanks for this one ! Take care -stay safe ! Regards

[@JawTooth]

I am glad you like it Neil. Thanks for watching and for your comments!

[@csx2507]

Good news Jaw Tooth you can still find those G-type signals all the way up the Big4 from Columbus to Berea and on the Pennsylvania in mansfield and Crestline, and also up the Toledo line and Youngstown line. You want rare signals you need to look for the old Pennsylvania position signals, the ft wayne line some still, between CP ORR and mp140, CP MOHICAN and CP CREST, also the River line down around E.Liverpool.

[@Hipsters_N_Hippies]

Yeah I live in Reading Pennsylvania and they are all over. I didn’t know it was rare until I saw this tittle. I’m just so used to seeing them.

[@conceyullena]

[@mononproductions6226]

Cool catches there Jawtooth! 👍👍

[@jeremypreece870]

Hi Jaw Tooth. Interesting selection of freight wagons. It always looks so precarious when containers are stacked one on top of another on the train, especially when the smaller container is stacked under the larger one. This is something that you would never see here in the UK as it would never fit under the bridges and in the tunnels

[@russelltrupia4479]

Love those old signals

[@drby0788]

Used to sit at Cooke rd alot! Haven't been up in awhile!

[@markfortin421]

Hi Mr. Toot! That engineer at the beginning was a tad impatient....should have pulled a little closer to the crossing and stopped, waiting for the gates to come down...must be late for lunch, 😆...nice dusk shots, always a good time, Please...stay safe. Never know what you might catch from those passing engineers with no mask on...✌😂

Oh wow! It is just now starting to dry up here. I love the droughts though

[@austinmiller3497]

This is awesome! I know right where this like is in Columbus. This line also runs by my house north of Delaware and they just started setting new ties out, and I believe they are getting to replace the rails.

[@JawTooth]

Awesome! I go up there every year in March but this year they cancelled the seminars that I was supposed to attend. I got some good videos of the different crossings up there last year

[@hunterprowsemrereviews9141]

I like that old signal, very neat they still use it and it still works. Lots of train action at that spot I see why a lot of rail fans flock there lol

AWESOME to see an SD80MAC out there

[@williambryant5946]

It would be sweet to get ahold of one of those old block signal stands when they replaced it with new ones.

[@StCroix-up4km]

There's some old searchlight signals still in use on the BNSF and CP in spots yet. There might even be some Grizwalds still in use too in the Twin Cities. But there's only 1 crossing I can think of that still has a good mechanical bell on it yet on a class 1 line.

Great video Brian. I have never seen you shoot night action! That NS A line runs north up through Lewis Center where I grew up and on up into Toledo. Going south the line goes through Chillicothe all the way through Portsmouth.

[@JawTooth]

I shoot at night some times but they usually don't get many views. I have a night time coal train that I filmed in Virginia that I am thinking about posting but they just don't do very well.

[@olentangy74]

Jaw Tooth Yeah, they are hard to see. I think the signals really look cool illuminated at night.

[@davidbarnett9312]

@ 2:29 mark: the lower signal looks pink while the top signal is plainly green. Although one should never assume, are both high lines now operated by CSX on one of them and NS on the other?

[@bootsdocsandconspiracies6589]

Why lock the gate, when will just have to unlock it when the train is ready to leave?

[@bensmall6548]

That train at 2:30 had a some type of k5hl. Very out of place for an emd locomotive.

[@alanstant9356]

You know its funny to think if they actually know that those gates on those crossings dont work right. If they did, they wouldnt malfunction like that Jaw.

Yes one was NYC's Big4 line to Columbus, and the other was a Pennsy line up to 1968 when they sold it to N&W so they could reach Bellevue and the Nickel Plate for which they had merged.
