Nice Catch CSX #1850 Heritage unit 3:13:17 Good Job Drayton.

[@STHSIndustries2K6]

Best of CSX Transportation. They sure had some fine catches. Heritage units included too. CSX is a nice railroad

[@patrickhuot001]

That and the fact that they have one of the lowest rates of Freight Train Interference with Amtrak.

[@Cozmo-hp4uo]

They treat their employees like shit.

[@patrickhuot001]

@@Cozmo-hp4uo Part of the stereotype work culture that favors productivity and loyalty over employee satisfaction.

[@richardhead1114]

CSX may not be my personal favorite Railroad, but it's slowly creeping up my list, especially since I got a job offer from them to be a Freight Conductor.

[@frankE91210]

I got offer to be the CEO of CSX but i declined because of my non compete clause with CN

ANOTHER BRODGE - KNOXVILLE, TN Another bridge at 1:10:35 also in need of some TLC....... The era in which this was built means that the steel was of an outstanding quality..... It needs looking after to preserve it..... James Hennighan Yorkshire, England

It has one of the Canadian horns 2:59:20

[@marinablueGS]

Wow, a lot of wobbling going on at 1:08:47.

[@asullivan4047]

Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better watch the trains traveling thru town & country. Along with the graffiti art work on box and tanker cars. Wonder if the artists are seeing 👀their creations on this presentation -???😲. Viewing this presentation from the comfort zone of my computer room. Along the " Space Coast "🚀 of Florida 🐊🐊. Wishing viewers along with the graffiti artest a safe/healthy/prosperous ( 2024 ) 🌈🎉😉.

[@craig4867]

Hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars they make putting these train videos on KZbin!

[@DelayInBlockProductions]

I wish. 😞

An excellent investment for future generations to appreciate & enjoy -!!!😉

COPPER CREEK, DUFFIELD, VIRGINIA Copper Creek Bridge at 1:26:45...........paint for me too please....! James Hennighan Yorkshire, England

[@heartsfordays6336]

3:15:11 there is a military csx unit and a 911 csx unit!

[@OutdoorsSC]

I wonder if these are the same trains that come through Clemson. Let me know, please.

[@ChargerusPrime]

What horn is that on clinchfield 800? An RS5T?

[@tylerdowd]

OH YEAH

[@dafrasier1]

Although commonly called "diesels," the locomotives actually are electrically driven. The diesel engine drives an alternator, which produces electricity to run electric motors mounted on the locomotive's axles.

[@Smackyjack440]

Power plant on wheels.

[@mshum538]

Generator that is mounted on the same shaft that the engine has in it …. The traction motors that receive the energy produced by the shaft driven generator are “ axle hung “ traction motors , hope this helps …its still referenced today in the operating environment as an engine , rules , shops etc…

[@jameshennighan8193]

AND YET ANOTHER ONE Yep,.... this time at 1:31:46.. Lots of sandblasting and paint required here....... James Hennighan Yorkshire, England

[@arlieadkins5757]

Hobo Shoestring is missing Please look up and pass on info

[@jameshennighan8193]

CINCINNATI BRIDGE The bridge in Cincinnati at 50:44 could do with a coat of paint...... It is false economy to let it deteriorate to the state where it will need lots more spending on it in due course. A substantial amount of TLC now will pay dividends in the long run.......and it will look prettier... Come on now...get the sand-blasters, welding torches, paint and paint brushes out of the box...

Seems kind of dangerous to run 3 mile long trains? 🤷‍♂️

[@tsherwood2112]

How would it be any more dangerous than running 1 mile trains?

[@MyPrettyPinkCameltoe]

How is a train cool? Stay in cuz the diesel smoke has smoked you!
