Man that is crazy loud 🎉

Spectacular Tyson! Having travelled from Banff to Vancouver on the RM , I can say how beautiful and remote these places are! The grinder is an amazing bit of kit , that I am lucky to work with once or twice a year down here in Aus'. Love your work and appreciate the B roll footage as well! Cheers Gregg.

thanks Tyson

[@rafterman3712]

That helps with wheel adhesion. Cool

[@TracksideTyson]

Sure looks like it with all the horizontally grinned metal.

I've yet to see one of these in person

[@twentiethcenturyboy6328]

Great videos Tyson! Love your work. I wonder what the cost per kilometre is that Loram charges the rail companies to grind their steel?

[@AndreiTupolev]

Some of the best filming I've seen of this amazing machine. 6:09 Is that world's oldest surviving can of Molson's? That ought to be in the National Museum of Canada 🙃

[@TracksideTyson]

Rare fine indeed! Nothing like waiting for trains and finding trackside treasures.

That beer can is super old. The brewery in Vancouver where it came from has bee shuttered for 40 years give or take.

[@TracksideTyson]

I wouldn’t doubt if that wasn’t Your old beer! Haha

[@franzbrunner499]

how do they decide "it's time to give a grinding"? # of trains traveled, visual inspection (technical or human eye) how regularly does it happen? thank you

[@johnmcgarvie4061]

Watching the grinder do it's thing is pretty cool. The sights, sounds and the after smell is beyond description. I've been lucky to watch Loram at night griding the rails. It's like being on a messed up acid trip. LOL!

[@TracksideTyson]

Haha love Your comments Thanks John 😎
