I come to KZbin not sure what to look for, then a Mike Barnett video pops up, and life makes sense again.

[@maxjancarich]

Well done video Mike👏🏻🥂 I always used to love trains as a kid and I even got to drive one under supervision at the age of 10! But life threw me into a different direction and now I’m in the music industry!!

[@debralavorata546]

My favorite handsome engine ever,loco about mikes loco videos!! Great views from the cab,things people would never see. I love the sound of a trains horn,esp at night,something about a train!! Cmon mike,borrow a loco and take me for a ride,love the "iron horse"

[@coloradomallcrawlers]

I’m a bit jealous. I wish I could film my subdivisions/routes, but instead, it’s just Jeep trails. Glad CSX isn’t as strict as my employer tho.

[@ditchpatcher]

I love those Desktop control stands and the horn sounds great in the cab

[@cahyoh.harimurti8554]

Glad to see that there was 'analog' locomotives still running in the USA 😁

[@owenevans5061]

Wow this is awesome amazing video

[@djhutcherson6761]

I hired on with CSX as a conductor out of Nashville back in 2006, and on the first few trips I made out on the road after I marked up, I brought my video camera with me and made a few videos while going down the tracks and posted them to my KZbin channel. Very bad idea...not too long afterwards I got a call from the road foreman of engines and one of my trainmasters on that subdivision telling me that if I didn't immediately take down the videos I had posted, I would be looking at some pretty serious charges and possibly getting fired. I never did find out exactly what rules they say I violated, or how management found out about the videos in the first place, but I have a feeling one of my engineers reported me, not really sure why he would do that, but I learned my lesson not to bring my camera to work anymore, lol.

Mr. Barnett, what's the strangest thing you have seen in your travels on the CSX? Thanks for another great video!

[@djhutcherson6761]

Hoosier Rail, I was a conductor for CSX between Nashville and Chattanooga for 8 years, and I would have to say the strangest thing I ever saw while going down the tracks was a man completely naked standing right beside the track "pleasuring" himself as we passed by...hard to get that image out of my head, lol. :)

Been slowly creeping away from the train scene, I made a mistake.

[@alcopower5710]

You ever operated an Alco?

[@SOT03Y]

Mike - I am a train driver here in Australia, I watch your videos and notice that you use some heavy applications on the Independent brake whilst rolling along, It is frowned upon here where I work, as it deemed a high risk of skidding the locomotives wheels, if we were caught doing it by a senior driver trainer, we would get a "please explain". So I am curious, is it frowned upon with your company? I am just curious as to the different methods of driving from around the world. Thanks for posting your videos, they are great to watch

[@curailproductions7636]

Nice 👍

Probably the air that blows the horn

[@MissJuneBennett]

Mr. Barnett I have a question. How come modern trains don't have cow catchers like the old time steam engines had? What was the reason they stopped adding them?

[@Deltaexe190]

They still have them. They just aren’t so noticable

[@RonStanek]

Have the railroads done anything about loud horn noise for the crews? Besides ear plugs.

[@deannagentry3994]

Newer locos are more have better sound resistant cabs GE engines are usually quiet anyway but EMD have loud engines so they basically have to have sound resistant cabs
