Operations on the D&H Glens Falls Branch

[@Mercatoyd]

I've been watching a number of your videos..this one is one of my favorites. The industrial footage and the street running was really neat. You always get real crisp video too..great job again.

Nice of the crew to acknowledge your hard work on chasing them when you caught them the 3rd time with them saying you made good time. Nice catch and lash-up

[@SelkirkSubRailFilms]

Thanks!

[@alcopower5710]

Loved seeing this D&H locomotive. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@joeahearn4413]

Really good video. After seeing it, I am planning to go up to the Glens Falls area and try and get some video of the branch myself.

[@SelkirkSubRailFilms]

Thanks! It’s definitely a cool operation

I grew up in North Creek and the D+H was an institution there. They ran out of the Tahawus mine in Newcomb. Seemed half my friends folks worked for the D+H or the mines. All gone now. A sad thing.

“Progress “ is not always a great thing.

4:00 in those are empty pulp bale cars from the mill. My wife's aunt lives next to the tracks.

The romance of the shield is long gone

That D&H horn sounds REALLY loud and ear-racking, glad I use hearing protection while railfanning!

[@towny72]

Thanks for taking the time to upload this and all of your videos!

[@AppalachiaRRlover]

use to live in Hudson Falls, hung out at that all the time with friends from the Upstate Model Railroaders

[@realMrHudson]

carel luis cool I’m in that model railroad club too

[@hawkeyeted]

My grandfather worked for The D&H. I grew up in Whitehall where D&H had a large yard until the mid 80s before the railroad went under. GP38s and RS11s could be frequently spotted.

[@alcopower5710]

RS11s are one of my favorites

[@tommyhaynes521]

I had no idea there were still locos with the D&H paint scheme still in use . I'm not to far away from this area , would love to see this..thanks for posting

[@thomasabramson100]

Thanks really nice video any chance you could get over to Eagle Bridge and get some video of the Battenkill Railroads Alco RS3s

[@miachevydude]

Cool video,I really enjoyed it!I have both the 7303 and 7304 D&H units in HO scale from Athearn Genesis that i will be using on my switching layout.I have always loved the D& H lightning stripe paint scheme,and the D& H in general.I didn't know till recently that the GP38-2's were still in original paint and still in service to this day.

[@yofrentzen]

Great video. I really like the map at the beginning.

[@patricklawless6597]

Great footage!

[@denise6896]

My cousins used to have a house about 100 to 200 ft from tracks leading into the Selkirk yards. Great fun to watch the trains as a kid.My grandfather a D&H engineer used to yell at us. Great fun as a kid Though I would not suggest that. Somehow we survived.

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

I am very impressed that Canadian Pacific managed to keep the paint on 7303 almost exactly fresh the only difference is is the long white Canadian Pacific stripe running along the length of the engine

[@burnuts007]

Great work keeping up with these guys!

[@vrmntthb]

If I'm not mistaken...I've seen these two at rest in the Whitehall yard on the weekends in years past...but not lately as it is hard sometimes from Rt 4 to see if they have left em in the stop where they usually had. And you did get the action at Broadway at Irving Tissue as I was gonna ask if you had done so.. We never saw any action there but thought they still use the tracks. Great stuff and thanks.

[@kevinhennessy6935]

Do they have a regular schedule I go to lake George for a week or two every summer. I always have my scanner with me

[@BodhranBrian]

flagging in the winter. oh,what joy!!!

[@eight10aaronn]

You found a Delaware and Hudson locomotive?

[@frankstar3417]

Hi what specificslly do the hopper cars carry? Thank you.

[@tomthetank924]

still a lot of activity around there? thanks

[@tommythomason6187]

The Canadian Pacific locomotive looks brand new. Is that a GP50?

[@timothyglaserr8791]

7303 believe is ex- Lehigh valley 303

[@fredlohmann1448]

i thought only CN had 554

[@kristiebeals3]

why does it have a caboose? I thought trains dont use them anymore

[@SelkirkSubRailFilms]

Some local operations still use them as shoving platforms. Pretty cool to see!
