Santa Fe Transcon Around Flagstaff, AZ - July, 1992

[@MrBlueduds]

ahh the good old days. I used to spend a lot of hours hanging around the amtrak station there and I loved seeing the Santa Fe trains speed through every 10 minutes or so. Thanks for the video

[@Lowerbcspotter]

how are you 10 years later?

[@kraigkasten]

Great 90s videos! Awesome variety before the constant stream and mind-numbing AC44s! The "blue bonnet" SD40-2 is still one of the most beautiful engines you will find!

[@jefftrego8491]

I loved the Santa Fe Railroad, it went through my home town, The Super Chief and everything! My great uncle ran the steamers back in "the day" from Newton Kansas!

[@danielboone3770]

Another Santa Fe video of the 90's! I LOVE it! Thanks. This just couldn't get any better!

[@TEMAOHI2787]

NICE L-O-N-G Vid!! Good to know that SOMEONE was filming in 1992! Who could have imagined just a few years later the LEGEND, ATSF SANTA FE would become a "Fallen Flag", UNTHINKABLE!!! I'm grateful for this video!! I only WISH it could have been 16mm Film, or the DIGITAL Camera's of TODAY! But I'm just HAPPY this video EXISTS!! THANK YOU!!

[@gabrielnelson3400]

Man! Those were the days! No more. Thanks for taking me back, I miss 'em...

[@jarrietfair6497]

Great video 💘 and our Santa fe trains those were the days

[@TNdefender05]

OMG!! Awesome video and what a great reference for my models. Man back when 48' trailers were the new thing!!

[@RickHowland-q6l]

I'm still sold on those yellow bonnets. Nice work on your video.

[@RogerThunderhandsGilbert]

Great Footage,,,brings back memories!

[@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606]

I like this quality it is like brighter than normal coloring and grainy picture is like a dreamlike state.

[@markhayes6407]

That area is so scenic with the pines..not something known by southwest and mid west rail scenes of Santa Fe. Picturing desert and grain fields then beautiful pines. Such a great route for the now Amtrak Southwest Chief. And of course the AT&SF. Nice video thanks

[@irishrebel1798]

another great video, i've spent all my day off work so far looking at your videos and there all absolutely brilliant

[@BrianW._1313]

Love It...!!! I grew up next to the Ft. Worth sub. main & can still remember when the first GP60M's & B40-8W's started showing up. they were sleek, shiny, & fast. To a 10 year old boy they were the focus of my summer. Other than the very rare FP45 (only 7 of the 9 left at that point) they were the first war-bonnets I'd ever seen. Great Times..!!

[@casperfriendly47]

Excellent! (And how funny that the 90s have become vintage...)

[@David-nl1zt]

Never really thought about how many 4 axle units were in service on class 1 railroads back then. I spent most my young man years train watching. Today, everything is 6 axles, unless you are in a yard.

[@Stationmaster]

Railroading changes, but the Old 66 Overpass is still one my favorite train watching spots.

[@iusetano]

LOVED IT. Excellent video.

[@ATSF1927]

I traveled up and down this line during the 1940s and 1950s with the ole Baldwin Steamers.

[@JoseFuentes-pw8rw]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if that's ATSF 96 at 29:37, then that's one of the locomotives that wrecked in 1994 in the Cajon Pass.

[@Milepost1965]

From what I've seen, Santa Fe really liked moving Elephant style.

[@400exNick]

Awesome footage!! This is back when EMD was still in charge and locomotives still belched smoke. And every locomotive wasn’t the same color!

[@RailfanJunction]

Great catch with that B39-8 at 1:58!

[@jarrietfair6497]

I love my Santa fe railway

[@DenverRailfanHD]

Awesome video! I wish i was able to see trains in the 90's.

[@FirstnameLastname-tp4zw]

Man did we even have 53' ft. Trailers in 1992?

[@matthewm6466]

Probably the best atsf video I have ever seen. A lot of screaming diesals

[@hunterriley9904]

Love these videos !

[@gerfmon1]

I wish all my old videos were of a higher quality, but I'm happy with what I did capture. So much is gone now. :( Back in the early 1990's I purchased that Sony camcorder for around $600 and that was about as cheap as a 8mm video recorder came in those days. I have HD video equipment now, and I'm trying to capture as much remaining "old stuff" as I can. BTW, I just found some old VHS tapes I shot in the 80's, they're worse than the 8mm tape. :)

[@PunkyBear36]

The train at 27:08 is probably the Barstow-Houston plastic chemical train, the only freight important enough to warrant Intermodal engines.

[@rossbryan6102]

LOL , WHEN THE DASH 8 REVOLUTION BEGAN!! KEEP THEM ROLLING BROTHERS!! 👍👍

[@Crocfan20]

Amazing video, thanks for uploading!

[@viewstuff36]

Wow did they have a lot of F45s!

[@waynehawkins2157]

Great vido!!

[@XxXGhostXxX417]

I love this thanks for uploading

[@silicon212]

32:05 Pepsi cans!

[@cometalktome1058]

Why did the signals flash once the train passed them?

[@Fitch721]

@+19:55 mins GP60's A-A-A-B.... cool! mergers destroy colors

[@TrainsNStuff]

I wish BNSF never existed...Long Live the Santa Fe!! Even though I live in what would be BN territory.

[@BrianW._1313]

gotta love real 20 cyl. SD45s

[@400exNick]

And how about all that TOFC?!!

[@anb740]

Consists like these are why I gave up the railfan hobby. I got sick and tired of seeing nothing but widecab GEs on every single train. I was spoiled by good stuff like this!

[@mikeallen7866]

Great video! It is a shame that the post merger company did away the greatest railroad of all time the - AT&SF.

[@scoobycarr5558]

BNSF should bring out the Santa Fe, Burlington, Northern Pacific, and Great Northern heritage units!

[@sicklettuce]

July 23th lol

[@curtis13450]

john wyane

[@scoobycarr5558]

And not one hint of graffiti on a single freight car!

[@mutanay77]

why do YOU capitalize more WORDS than you SHOULD, it is IRRITATING

[@montanaroadapple]

Lame vvv
