I was on a METRA commuter train going into Chicago. The train was pulling into one of the western suburb stops when the horn blew uncharacteristically loud and long. The engineer got on the PA and announced to the conductors that the train would not move until the guy who ran in front of the train to get on the platform was kicked off. I guess it was such a close call that it really shook up the engineer.

Guy, what you call DPU, here in Brazil is called Locotrol. But only when there is Locomotives + cars + Locomotives + cars. When there are more Locomotives in parts of trains (like locos + cars + locos + cars + locos + cars) it's called as tricotrol (3 locos divided at the train) and sometimes quadricotrol (4 locos divided along the train).

I was looking on Google earth and followed the tracks south and found a good place that you may want to video. It would be something a little different. There are two tunnels side by side at 4478 Lambs Ferry Road (Hwy 1930), Ryland Heights, KY. It shows to be south of the Covington, KY city limits, but the location would not be hard to get too. I don’t recall seeing you video much, if any tunnel scenes. I have not seen many tunnel scenes except for a few out west on the UP and BNSF. I also checked out the Queens Gate Yard. That is a very huge yard to be in the middle of a large city.

They were throwing their muscle into those cars maxed out at six coils per car. Other notable cars was the BNSF bread box style coil car (squeezed in one the left side) new white VELX tank car and the 5 refurbished ex MDW\IBT double door cars now marked CIBX. OH yes the Chessie groupie covered hoppers with Puppy written on half the cat. Excellent coverage of a new location and sheer wrist endurance

That southbounder was like four or five major cuts put together to make up that train. Sure liked to see all that rolled steel on the train rolling out of the old AK mill in Middletown. Hopefully the autoracks were full. Many grainers on it that were hopefully full of harvested grain on their way to southern ports for shipment around the world. No wonder the northbounder was stopped on that spur. No way could both trains go over the bridge ahead of his point that goes over the Ohio at the same time. Great Norfie and Chessie action. I hope your Christmas was good. That guy crossing the tracks right in front of the train was lucky his footing was good, if he had slipped it would have been "lights out" for him. These days, with all the crazy stuff people seem to be doing much more these days, it's not all that surprising to see someone do that.

I grew up near a wetland/woods with spur line running through it, and us kids used to walk the tracks all the time. When I was a kid, the trains ran about once an hour. We believed they would shoot rock salt at us so we always ran helter skelter for the woods when we heard the little switcher locomotive throb up the incline, or down it. I still walk that line, the trains are down to maybe four a day now, two out and two back. In the summer, no ticks to worry about, fewer mosquitoes, and the berm provides the best view of one of the beaver ponds and the wildlife therein. I don't doddle getting out of the way the odd time a train comes along. They do move slow and I have lots of time to get off the track, but I don't want the engineer to get anxious. There's way too many people who commit suicide by train.
