Stalled Out UP Manifest Train Overtaken by Huge Stack Train!

[@CalebA-sv2kw]

Nice catch Mike. I could hear Brutus yelling "CUT! CUT!" "First this stupid truck is driving thru my frame then this stack train...What's a guy gotta do to see some fine art these days? Great break's over. hahaha Thanks for the hard work brother

[@FJDad777]

@CalebA-sv2kw 🤣🤣🤣 Yeah that's pretty much how it went down! Thank you Caleb!

Imagine how strong those couplers are. The lead coupler might have to haul 15,000 tons.

[@FJDad777]

@tigerphid9677 🤯🤯Some insanely huge foces happening for sure. There is a brief momment where if you pay close enough attention, you can see the rear trucks on the secund helper unit rock back and forth under the strain of the pulling forces. Very cool stuff! Thanks for watching and commenting! 😎👍

You know what... My wife loves a sale. She doesn't know how things make it on the shelf or the magic behind it. But I do and I am absolutely fascinated by it. Do you think somebody got in trouble for not putting enough locos on that train to make it up the hill?? Thanks for sharing the magic!

[@natgass8102]

surprised to see that the stack train had 5 engines that’s like 20,000 horsepower to pull a train that normally doesn’t have a lot of tonnage

[@natgass8102]

I spoke too soon it had 2 helpers in the middle too!

[@FJDad777]

​@natgass8102 was a ton of power! Thanks for watching Natgass, very much appreciated.

[@Ronald-t4x]

Natgass8102 here in Kansas have seen as much as 7 units on a manifest freight three lead units two d p u units in the middle and two d p u units pushing at the back also.

[@FJDad777]

@Ronald-t4x that's a lot of power too!

[@Ronald-t4x]

@@FJDad777 yes it is but being we have alot of hills that these trains have to climb over you've got to have that much horsepower to get the job done and we've also got flat ground too that those freights can hammer down and make up lost time also.

Hey FJ. What date was this filmed on? Also was this train traveling East or West?

@timeforbeans good morning TFB! It was filmed last Thursday headed East. 👍😎

[@nanoweber250]

​​​​@@FJDad777That stack train probably originate from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach California,traveled thru the Alameda Corridor to UP Alhambra Subdivision or caught the Los Angeles Subdivision via City of Commerce CA to West Colton CA there it goes thru Cajon Pass or travels east via The Sunset Route ( former SP ) Keep up the good work, great video ,and yes we know how UP rail network in Southern CA works my former stomping grounds 👍

[@keystonedriving8180]

Just a quick comment. The story is what is happening in front of the camera, not in the camera. If you watch the pros, zooming and panning doesn't happen very often but when it does it happens S-L-O-W-L-Y. Ideally the viewer shouldn't even realise that it is happening. The violent zooming in and out detracts from the story you are telling. You are not alone in this respect by any means, but if you can avoid it your video will look much more professional. Otherwise, a good catch worth recording. The lead SD70 is in dire need of a visit to the shop as that was a knackered ALCO amount of smoke. Sorry if I'm sounding negative, I've no wish to put you off (I've seen far worse) but slow and steady is the game to play.

@keystonedriving8180 did not take it negative at all my friend! I appreciate the feedback and totally agree. Definitely something I am working on. Thank you so much and welcome to the channel! 🤝
