The old sd9 pulls the grade with ease, so enjoyable to watch that old engine doing its thing, thank you Jason you make it possible for me to watch it

@kevin-gs7jn Ай бұрын

Yes, considering that they only have 1,750 horsepower. Sd 9 and SD40 are my favorite locomotives..

@mshum538 Ай бұрын

Plus, they are not pulling alot of tonnage and that is how they get away with operating them here, money is spent on fuel using two engines to avoid costly breakdowns as opposed to one engine under a heavier load… They seem to be surviving …

Cheech and Chong on the UP tour. Track work is tough in this weather. Them boys earn their pay 😊❤

Jason, you did a good job of documenting another aspect of railroading that most people don't find as glamorous as pulling the throttle and blowing the whistle.

The engineer had confidence in the work of the Maintenance of Way crew's repair of the track where the derailment occurred. He did not hesitate or slow down as he moved the train through the S curve. The MOW crew deserves a round of applause for their work at the derailment site. (Posted on 13 December 2024 at 2033 CST.)

Ummm, what is that tall smokestack sitting by the road "in the middle of nowhere" used for? And where did all that snow go? As usual, after the sun comes back that Mother Nature woman got rid of it, with some help from the road crews.

@dontomkinsonkpc6ndb862 Ай бұрын

That is "Trump Tower". It was part of an open mining operation years ago and the tower is all that is left. Odd that no kar or truck has not smacked it. Anyway, before the election took place the owner of the property had a huge "Trump Tower" sign applied to the smoke stack but the city forced him to take the sign down with a fine of $500/day. Jason has a video of the sign being installed.

We got a good old sun today - heading for 95 degrees F today and could be 100 on Monday!! I assume that ELS works in "dark territory" with TWC or Train Order?

@dkillalegend Ай бұрын

It's okay to keep maintenance and work with the locomotives you have, but has ELS ever considered buying an old AC4400CW or an EMD MAC locomotive from another railroad company?

From the News Center of Old Tom Cat News, you may be experiencing three to five feet of snow in the next week plus. what is most unusual thing that seen in a boxcar door as years ago I saw a cat, it was like he had gone in for a nap and just woke with the look of where am I?

@paulbergen9114 Ай бұрын

OK. We have now witnessed the train of the week and hopefully they stay on the track all the way to Green Bay Unlike other trips they wyed the power so 1221 got to tiptoe over the repaired trackage first and survived. 12 cars of siding just a bit less than average and the nine cars of logs got unloaded in that stretch. Lord knows what deadline that FURX covered Hopper was in but that must have been the lucky charm for the trip. Frankly since that NB trip the night before had four tank cars that whole plant may have been dangerously close to shutting down if it hadn't arrived. It was surprising the two cars that didn't derail didn't make the trip but weren't there cars to take back from Alter? It may take some real work and look to get this back on track to have any kind of normal rail service. A twist on the Jawtôoth statement. We've had derailments coming up on the bad weather season and even Motive Power problems. So what's the worry? By the way his tape from Thursday 12\12 had a SB NS Freight in Erlanger KY that had two Center beams of siding at 26:00+ almost felt like cheering them on.
