Locomotives Struggling On Hill With Heavy Train! Listen To The Battle & Includes Caboose Flashback

Heavy Rock Train Working Hard On Steep Hill In Williamsburg, Ohio! Listen To These EMD Geeps Fighting Gravity As They Try To Lift A Heavy Train Up A Steep Grade. This Is The Cincinnati Eastern Railroad On The Norfolk Southern Peavine Line.
First we go to the Williamsburg hill to watch the loaded rock train come around a curve, cross a railroad crossing and continue on to Afton Yard with a train load of rock, railroad ties and an empty flat car on the rear. The train is westbound and coming back from the east end of the line. The rock comes from Hanson quarry at Plum Run, Ohio which is just east of Peebles. The raw railroad ties come from McCoy Lumber in Peebles, Ohio. The flat car was pulled out of temporary storage on the east end of the line. This train stopped at Afton Yard for the day minutes after I filmed it.
We also see the heavy welded rail up close and the Norfolk & Western Railway color position lights. Check out the pole line also.
Next, we see some very historic video that I filmed back on October 1, 2020. This is at the Sardinia Wye. Check out the locomotives and caboose that are being switched around. The caboose and GP49 are long gone. The B36-7 is out of service but the MP15DC switcher is still in use here today. The caboose was used in remote control service for a short time on rip rap trains used for maintenance of way. I have a few videos of the caboose in action but it didn't stay on the line for very long. It came from the east and wound up leaving for the west.
Don't miss the slide show at the end and Norfie doing what she always does.

It slowed down pretty good but they made it

Now that’s one awesome show by the CCET. Locomotives down on their knees with a heavy rock train, sweeet.👍🏼

[@denniswillaman6241]

Great shot love that short line railroad. I noticed those high mounted lights on both ends of that caboose. Never seen that before.

[@davidbrown4823]

Loved the roar of the EMD's.

[@paulbergen9114]

That power was doing pretty good for almost 50 years old. Indeed the sound.came out just fine as they kicked up dust and sand at the Crossing. And watching them recede it was probably walking speed at best. One thing that would have helped is to not overload those hoppers just for the tonnage but you also don't need more Hoppers with the bulged out walls Thanks for the extra footage of the drag race with the two sets of power. Such a difference only 4 years makes

[@user-rm7ye8ct6p]

Buy it. NOW!!!💯👍🧐

[@garymiller5937]

It's cool 😎 to see another caboose still in active service, JT! Nice carch. 😊😊😊❤❤❤

Awesome shot of the train going up the hill that a steep hill for them

[@dmroth2495]

Power,power, power. They need more when Purina opens or maybe before. If one of those locomotives goes down, it will cause some real problems.

An old antique store saying: "The time to buy it is when you see it". Glad you at least put in an offer otherwise it would be years of "coulda woulda shoulda". Awesome video with bonus. Thanks JT!

[@JawTooth]

My thoughts exactly. There was a lot that sold last year just down the road and I wish I could have got it. It sold at auction and I was bidding but dropped out. I am kicking myself for not getting that one. This one is smaller but it is really close to my house

[@leacyhuntley780]

Good evening all, watching the trains & playing my games!! 🙂

[@JawTooth]

Thanks for the visit!

[@rodsmith3911]

That sounded like a real freight train. A proper load on a heavy grade! Nice to be reminded of the previous motive power on CCET and 2414 is the only one still seeing regular action. A lovely little switcher. Also nice to see Chessie out trainspotting plus a great shot of Norfie the cat as she is hard to film.

[@garymiller5937]

They are sounding great coming up the hill JT! 😊😊😊❤❤❤

[@thomasmackowiak]

The two GP15-1s were working hard to bring their westbound train up the Williamsburg Hill at the Gay Street crossing in Williamsburg, Ohio. They were pulling 19 loaded hopper cars of rock plus one loaded gondola car of rock. The springs on the hopper cars were compressed. Thank you for adding the short video from 1 October 2020 with the now long-gone engine and caboose. I am surprised that some governmental authority has not told the owner of property to cap that open well. That open well is a hazard.

[@JawTooth]

It's kind of ironic actually. I am buying a property with an open well on it and when I worked for the health department for 20 years I sent out a lot of orders for people to cover open wells Lol. When I take over ownership of the lot that is the first thing that I am going to do. That is dangerous. I wonder how many little animals have fallen in there. I remember back in the 80s when a little kid fell into a well in Texas. We got reports of a lot of open wells after that. Thanks for watching Thomas!

[@pm8302]

Wow! I remember 218 and 217 piggy back train running that former Cincinnati District. Now 218/217 runs up to Columbus over to Cincinnati. I’ve got a feeling that may change.

[@cokorote4chukis]

woah! this is nice! SD40s and an old rusty signal, I would've done anything to travel back in time to see how those signals worked

[@terrykeithley6183]

Hey Brian, you need to get that 1acre. Then if that 60 ever comes up get it too. Don't need no subdivision back there. Later Terry.😊

[@markparker6846]

Those locomotives sounded great pulling up that hill! That old well would make me nervous; I've came across a lot of those as a kid exploring around old houses. If you get the lot, you could do like the neighbor did across the road from me. He bulldozed up the old house, tree stumps, etc. He filled the well and burned the rest of the debris . I can't tell it was ever there

[@musclecarmitch908]

Great rock train action Jawtooth! Love them old signal's that's still left on the line, i hope they sell them someday instead of scrapping them!👍

[@JawTooth]

That would be cool! they should be in a museum

[@margiecooper6045]

Love CET plus a caboose too! Thanks JT! Hope you get that land. I like you with hair LOL. ❤

I hope so too! I cut my hair after I went to Florida and tried to swim in the ocean. Salt water really messes with hair lol

[@jessaravena5139]

Thanks for the great video Jaw Tooth. I really do love that old signal from the spot you were filming from. Anthony (Australia)

[@leshemingway7768]

The CCET may need to get one more powerful engine if they continue to haul heavy loads like this

[@JawTooth]

They will have to especially when Purina comes on line next year. I saw them working on a B36-7 so I am wondering if maybe they will fire one of them up again. I sure hope so.

[@leshemingway7768]

@@JawTooth I agree. Pulling full rock trains with these two engines working overtime getting up grades will eventually cause issues on the motors that will be expensive to fix

[@armandoperez7967]

I also wouldn’t mind if they acquired some ex BNSF Dash 9-44CWs. Plenty of them available. My ultimate fantasy for the CCET would be that they get so much business that they could get a quartet of brand new locomotives! I would absolutely go bonkers seeing a quartet of shiny new CCET ES44ACs fresh from Erie or FT Worth! I still remember when the Susquehanna got their new Dash 8-40B and SD70M locomotives!

@@armandoperez7967 That would be awesome!

[@SantaFe19484]
