Tank car has personality. Got give it that. It said, I am going sightseeing and y'all can stuff it. lol My favorite rail car ever. Carries everything from crude oil to ethanol to other commodities. Union Tank Car Company, UTLX manufactures these monsters of the rails. They come larger. This guy, fortunately, derailed cleanly and hurt no one, but he had some fun running away like he robbed a bank or something......lol Excellent video Jaw.....as usual. Thanks JR ☕

I live in N.Ireland and we don't have railways like this, so I watched this and thought... what's the point of making a vid of this? I actually watched it twice more over time and began to realise... hey, this is actually pretty interesting! A slice of American life. It all counts! Thankyou, sir, for taking the time and trouble to record this unique scene and for doing it to such an excellent standard. :-)

Here on KZbin look at the Amtrak videos.... my favorite one to watch is portland Oregon to Chicago. The on board accommodations are not as great looking as the scenery...very impressive...

[@richdiscoveries]

I found it quite interesting myself, I enjoy pretty much any train videos. Whether they are out on the open rails putting in work, or situations like this. Also I have always wondered how they handle derailed trains and cars. I've seen several videos on it now, and it's pretty interesting to watch.

+burdizdawurd1516 yeah, welcome to america. Where a booming oil and coal industry was cripled by govt regulation and international affairs incompetence. Saudi Arabia realized it could flood the market and cripple the US, Russian, and Iranian oil industry. They delivered on that idea. under $40 a barrel it makes no sense to drill the oil. it is a net loss. So as long as saudi is selling oil cheaper than water, we will see a lot of parked oil tankers.

[@norbertdx]

Stevebacca also may be possible the cars just haven't be ready to replaced the out going cars. After sll, think about it, the builder doesn’t care what the customer does with the cars once delivered. also maybe the cars jus hadn't be ready for shipping to the customer.

What does that mean? I am going to hazard a wild guess - “one should pull a freight train taut to eliminate slack between couplers, before one fastens the handbrakes to park the string of freight cars.” Is that right? If so, why? What difference does it make?

[@russlehman2070]

@@Syclone0044 I'm not absolutely certain, but I think it makes it difficult or impossible to uncouple a car from the string.

[@20truck]

Hey I have a question when you see railroad tracks and then in the middle of the tracks you will see two pieces of track they go about 20 or 30 ft and then they turn inward at each end what are those for.

[@JawTooth]

Those are called guard rails. If the train derails they are supposed to keep the cars up on the track. Usually they are on bridges where you dont want the cars to roll off the track

[@dmkays]

Fortunately, the coil springs indicate the car is empty. That car can be repaired with just some boards and a tow chain. Then it can be pulled back to the yard with a high railing utility truck if they pulled the tracks back to guage. I watched CSX retail a locomotive that was pulling the red Circus train down a similarly neglected spur with boards and chains. One of the workers retailing the train told me that he worked in a yard near Baltimore a nd the tracks were in such bad shape that they had cars derail several times per week. He spent about half his time putting cars back on the tracks.

[@ritcheygaxy8449]

beatiful noise when the wheels pass each rail

[@billmorris2613]

The bridge over the creek with all the snow is a very nice scene!!!

[@leadslinger49]

Did you check for a hand brake? If that car was on the downhill end there should have been a hand brake on it. I can't help wondering. If it was in storage with other cars. How did it get loose?

[@hometownconstruction3]

That blacked out loco looks awesome. I'd like to see more like that.

[@JawTooth]

Its a GP49 that they bought from Alaska Railroad and I have a bunch of videos of it . I have a few videos of it pushing the train while another GP49 is pulling.

[@hometownconstruction3]

[@ronfogarty3888]

I'd love to go in that snow ❄️ and out of this summer weather right now glad it's august finally

[@trainmaster7028]

This is a brand new tank car because of the hand rails on the end of the car. This car was built some time in 2015 because that's when they had a general order on Union Pacific for these new type of cars.

[@JawTooth]

I think it was built in December 2015. I showed it somewhere in the video. It had never even been used and was already in a derailment.

[@1topfueldrag]

what activates the signal lights and cross arms? I’ve seen trains stop right before a crossing and arms raise and lights go off, so that told me the signal to activate must not be on the rail. Is today’s method of crossing activation always been this way?

[@JoshRidestheRails]

Very cool you were able to document this.

[@johnathanlewis7059]

It’s unfortunate the car got loose but the good thing is that it didn’t crash causing a big disaster from whatever is inside of it. The track can be replaced.

[@Bassotronics]

Nice blue Brenco class K bearings designed for 280,000lb trucks.

[@charlessharrardiii7086]

Why did the brakes fail when the car separated? Why did it uncouple? Why did the rest of the train pass over the bad rail without derailing?

[@victormaitland5249]

Rumor has it that the Hi-Railer isn't going to be the last "train" running over the Peavine after all. On either 2/30/16 or 2/31/16 Amtrak is going to run an Inspection train from Cincinnati to Norfolk via Roanoke to study a proposed new passenger train from Cincy to Norfolk partially to provide Navy personnel rail service from the Midwest to the Navy Yards in Norfolk. Using new Viewliner Baggage cars, a Viewliner sleeping car and Viewliner Dining Car and Amfleet coaches. Tentative reports indicate the train may be called the "Chesapeake Arrow" . Guess we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed and see if they feel the Peavine would be the most direct route. Stay tuned.

[@JawTooth]

+Buck Savage Cool thanks for the info!! That means they might run it on my birthday if they do it on the 30th! This would be a perfect line for the navy. Just straighten out a curve or two and it could be turned into high speed rail. I hope they use a couple of their surplus F40PH locos to make it really special. The people at NS never cease to amaze me. I'm glad they decided to give CSX some respect by using the "Chesapeake Arrow" name. I knew that bridge over the Scioto River wasn't as bad as NS claimed. This just proves it. I know where I'll be on my birthday on the 30th of this month! Lol

[@KutWrite]

...unless someone gets triggered by the word "Arrow."

[@smokeandsteamxsw9831]

I probably rerailed several hundred rail cars in 45 years. Each derailment is different. Tankers are bad the contents Slosh back and forth and they will run out after you cut away. You have to wait for the contents to settle down before you leave the cars.

[@JawTooth]

That is very interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks for your comment

[@gingerrail7368]

So after the derailment, will the track be fix or just not used. And why did they stop using this line.?

[@Paw95]

+Ginger Rail the line has high grades and many curves.NS says they cant haul intermodel on it because of the grades and curves and also not much business on it.

[@Paw95]

+Ginger Rail my end is most likely going to come up for good.

[@norbertdx]

Ginger Rail as it was said in the beginning, the line was out of service. the rails were purposely cut to prevent usage. they had to reassemble the track just to get to the car. but the line is still oos.

[@philipwilson867]

That’s nothing. Back in 78 or 79 on my first trip as a fireman. We lost a hopper an chased it 16 miles down the side of a mountain in west Texas at speeds of 60 mph before we caught it. True story

[@silverstatehighiron]

I have a funny story. So I live by this branchline owned by the UP. There's also a location called Peavine on the branch. And also at Peavine, they've been storing a bunch of boxcars and tanks.

[@leshemingway3352]

So Brian were they able to get the tanker back on the track? will the CCET repair the damaged track section? Midland Sub said NS may open up a longer section of the Peavine for the CET to Plum Road.

[@JawTooth]

+Les Hemingway When I was there, they told me a tree needed removed first and they were waiting on a bigger truck to come. I dont know who will repair the track but it will have to be repaired just to move the car back to Seaman for CCET. There are still plans for Plum Run quarry but that has been in the works for a long time.

So why is this section of track dis-used was there an industry at one point over there that no long uses the railroad or what?

[@JawTooth]

They took all the through trains off the line around 2003 due to numerous steep grades, sharp curves and cost of maintenance. They rerouted them from Portsmouth Ohio to Columbus Ohio and down to Cincinnati. They stopped servicing the last customer 10 miles east of here due to costs on April 24, 2014. That customer only shipped a few loads a week and the railroad was loosing money on them. This part of the line reopened in March 2015 by CCET a few miles before this location to service a grain elevator. Right now the last 43 or so miles of track are out of service and most of that will probably be removed. I have more info but I know its confusing and hard to explain. Check out some of my videos of the new railroad company CCET.

[@gravelydon7072]

@@JawTooth Cost of maintaining all the bridges would eat any money they made. And on the East end, the only shipper to be seen is the gravel pit and their tracks are buried under the haul road now.

[@brettgrahovac7552]

It was primarily the trestle bridge that linked the Columbus district line to the peavine in Portsmouth, OH. Then the section west of Plum Run, right there at the gravel pit, was shut down after the FRA told NS to fix the track or stop running on it.
