Spring Break Cab Ride in a 1951 F-7 Diesel Locomotive on the Oregon Coast

I can’t get over how good that thing sounds. The super charger whine is unbelievable.

I like the video

Fantastic video! I’ve ridden the OCSR countless times over the years. Love the history of this line. I actually replicated the whole route from Hillsboro to Tillamook on Trainz Simulator 2019 with a combination of SP, POTB, and OCSR operating along it.

This engine GN 274B was at one time set up to burn bunker oil . What a mess. Ran her many times.

What's the "highball" stands for?

[@Tank245]

It's an old fashioned railroad slang term giving you permission to proceed.
