Sweet catch of that BNSF ACe. You even got a shave and a haircut! Sorry to hear about your "accident". Happens to everyone at some point.

Thanks man! Yeahh definitely a bummer but kinda brings ya back down to earth as not "indestructible" so I can imagine it's a positive lol, just gotta not having ideas like that xD

[@TheOilman747]

Hey Zach what's with the formating of the video screen and also excellent video and catches Ridgefield Park seems like the hot spot for rail fanning just like my hot spot I like going to is Woodbourne.

[@zdoryan95]

This is through Windows Live MovieMaker and thanks! Yes I want to see about getting down to Woodbourne sometime this year lol.

[@TheOilman747]

zdoryan95 I use Windows Movie Maker I always try to remember to switch the video format cause then I get screwed after I download it to my computer so it's in full screen and yeah Woodbourne is definitely the place I'm hoping to get out this weekend maybe to Macungie

20:48 awwwwwwwwwwww my ears 😠😨😣😱

[@DoubleGG5666]

I've always wondered, what's your favorite type of train lashup?

[@zdoryan95]

My favorite train lashup? Like that I've caught? Or you mean what kind of companies I'd like to see? Or model engines?

[@DoubleGG5666]

zdoryan95 I'm talking about what type of engine models are on the train, for me, it's a train with a new GEVO on it, but not leading. lately though, I've been wanting to catch an all YN2 train, and there is usually one leading on the trains I film with a new Boxcar GEVO trailing. I have different preferences for different railroads, that was my CSX preference, for BNSF, I like the same as CSX; GEVOS that are not leading with a dash 9 leading or SD70MAC. But in reality, I also love the trains with engines only in H2 or H1, and I actually managed to pull that off when I was in California if you look at my videos

[@zdoryan95]

Yoshi the Railfanner Hmmmm that is a tough one lol.... I mean I like my CSX, and have my preferences as to engines I prefer over others, but could never be able to think up my "favorite" lashup because there's just too much to consider, what with engine models, specific numbers, schemes, etc lol. I would say that engines I like a lot and would probably include would be: YN3b 3000/3100 series 44AHs, 900 series 44AHs, 700-800 series 44ACs, 600 series 60CWs, the 44CWs, SD40-2s, GP40-2s, GP38-2s, MP15Ts, SWs, SD50s, SD70MACs, SD80MACs, etc lol. CSX be my favorite railroad and I like most of their power.

[@DoubleGG5666]

Well, that's nearly all their roster, but I told you I like the new GEVOs, but only if they are trailing. The ES40DC's I like one way or another unless an old engine is on it, then I like the old engine to be leading
