PRR SIGNALS AND STEEL: The NS Pittsburgh Line Harrisburg-Lewistown, Pa.

[@LeeDfined]

This brings back major memories as I am a former Greyhound bus driver who used to run the route from Pittsburgh to Greensburg, Latrobe, Johnstown, Altoona, Tyrone, State College and Harrisburg. We started out across from Amtrak in downtown Pittsburgh and trailed this line most of the way to Harrisburg. Matter of fact, Johnstown, Tyrone, Altoona and Harrisburg stops were actually at Amtrak on this line. Just seeing the scenery sparked my memory. I ran that route from 2015 through late 2017 and always loved seeing them catch up with me or me to them by Altoona.

Great video, and loved the music too! Excellent job.

I used to take the train to Lewistown to get the Fullington Bus to Penn State University. That bus was always filled with College Kids and took about an hour from Lewistown Station up to State College.

Hi great video 👍 Love the car count as it saves me doing it lol 😂 Back in the UK lucky if we get 30 long car trains hehe 😃 Keep the clips coming thanks Stevie form England 🇬🇧

[@Trains21]

Thanks from the U.S.. Glad you enjoyed.

[@robertmcgregor1514]

NS60N a load of new post arc gondolas AC 😁😁 and the second train had some of my fave hoppers as well 😁😁 like this video coz they are running hot nothing like a heavy train going hard. An intermodal flying is an awesome sight to behold for me anyway

Très belle prise de vue avec des annotations fort utiles pour les non anglophones et les non initiés aux habitudes des chemins de fer étatsuniens. Merci. Thks

[@Trains21]

Merci, Philippe .. Je suis content que tu l'aies aimé.

[@peckelhaze6934]

Most enjoyable. Thanks.

[@Trains21]

Thank you.

[@SantaFe19484]

Totally awesome! I live in Duncannon very close to Cove. I am quite familiar with most of the places in this video (minus Scranton). I have seen Standard Steel up close before, but I never managed to catch any rail action there.

[@Trains21]

Thanks Man.. We got lucky.

[@jimsulkosky5188]

Great video loved it, keep up the great work.

[@Trains21]

Thanks, Jim.. This is one of my favorites too.

[@jayodonnell9838]

And the hits just keep on coming!! That 60N I believe is a slab train coming out of Camden correct. Both Camden and Morrisville are close to me. Once again well done!

[@Trains21]

That is correct.. Wow! You're an early bird aren't you.. lol.. Yes, these are loaded slabs to western Pa.. Are you on the PA side or the Jersey side?... And thanks again for the kind words.

[@jayodonnell9838]

Jersey but close to PA.

[@Trains21]

Oh, Ok

[@jayodonnell9838]

I am a night owl not a early bird.

[@Trains21]

Got it.

[@kelvintorrence5994]

[@timothyholt2934]

Like music on this video good groove to it. 🎶🥁

[@Trains21]

Thanks Timothy, I thought so too.

[@АлександрМорозов-р1п]

Отличный видео фильм. Просто всё очень хорошо. Мне очень понравилась Ваша работа.

[@Trains21]

Большое спасибо Александр, я очень рад, что вы наслаждаться видео .. Там еще много из них на пути в ближайшие дни, так что я надеюсь, что вы будете продолжать проверять.

[@АлександрМорозов-р1п]

Trains21 Без условно. Я буду рад этому. Удачи.

[@kelvintorrence5994]

That train running from new jersey to Farrell pa is going to a mill called n.l.m.k. which makes steel coils amd,at present time in 2020 are,on strike. I drive past there every day.

[@markusrosso]

Great work! Please tell me the name of the song at 5:15. Thank you!

[@Trains21]

There's actually two.. The first is found on Bensound.com, the second is "The 126ers - Wish you'd come true" and can be found by searching You Tube.

[@robertgift]

Glad you showed the signal change to red. Since when do PRR signals have colors? Does the middle lamp change to red to match the two horizontal red lamps, yellow to match the 45-degree yellow lamps and green to match the vertical green lamps *( : )* Alwayshow a train entering a grade crossing in case someone gets hit.

[@rickkilimun5430]

What were the3 white trailers on that NS work train, shelters for the crews?

[@Trains21]

Yep.. They're called "Camp cars."

[@napoleondynamite7518]

#6735 belongs to standard steel. Juniata valley railroad does service them but doesn't use remote control

[@Trains21]

Thanks, I know.. I should've been more specific.

[@philliplee980]

very cool. awesome video. let you know i just sub to you.

[@Trains21]

Thank you, Phillip.. Much appreciated.

[@philliplee980]

Trains21 your welcome sir.

[@MarkInLA]

1:35 lower the deafening fukin' bass and volume !!!

[@charlesdell2864]

Heard those worker cars are worst than prison cells.

[@Trains21]

I've heard bad things about them too, but they've been remodeled and a video I saw showed them to be quite nice.

[@robertmcgregor1514]

Except you are getting paid a bit better I suspect.

[@erikg.2666]

446 is an SW1200, not a 1500.

[@Trains21]

Thanks.. The info given to me was wrong.

[@fredlohmann1448]

WHY IS WINCHESTER& WESTERN THERE??

[@Trains21]

Probably for maintenance.. Small railroads often can't do big mechanical jobs.. That would be my guess..

[@fredlohmann1448]

446 IS NOT A SW1500!
