THIS RESTORED EMD FP7A LOCOMOTIVE IS BACK IN SERVICE! (2020) | Jason Asselin

Today I filmed this vintage EMD FP7 that was put back into service hauling freight for the Escanaba & Lake Superior Railroad. I chased it from Wisconsin up into upper Michigan, at one point a pickup truck ran out in front of it ignoring the flashing red signals and horn blowing. Overall it was a good chase with some great footage, I hope you love it!
This EMD FP7 marked ELS 600 is a 1,500 horsepower (1,100 kW), B-B dual-service passenger and freight-hauling diesel locomotive produced in January 1951 by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division and General Motors Diesel. It's currently owned by the Escanaba & Lake Superior Railroad but was previously owned by Wisconsin & Calumet, Wisconsin & Southern and Milwaukee Road.

The EMD F-series locomotive is such an American classic railroad icon! So elegantly simple, clean and graceful -- beauties to behold, so easy to look at. Long may they roll!

[@cb2000a]

It's like we went backwards in locomotive design.

[@jacobramsey7624]

Yes I agree. One even saved a life recently when a person tryed to commit suicide by getting hit by a train. The train the person was hit by was being pulled by a f unit just like the one in the video and the skirt on the front push the person off to the side. If I have been a regular locomotive it would have pulled the person under and killed them.

Watching from Ireland Jason where 18 GM 44 year old JT22CW locomotives are the powerhouse of our freight trains today. They were built in 1976 and powered intercity passenger trains at 90 mph for their first 30 years and continue to work on special occasions at that speed. They are all re-engined and refurbished by Irish Rail and in ex works condition. Keep up your great work and fascinating coverage from your home territory.

Still live in town though the distant thrum of freight trains grinding up the grade out of the Desplaines River Valley outbound or climbing out of the Fox River Valley inbound ( both grades crested just west of town) no longer occurs as large swaths between Chicago and the Twin Cities are bike paths the last 30+ years and having moved over the years but there's still times if if the wind is right I can hear freight on CN's former Wisconsin Central/SOO Line to the east.

I love those old American streamline locos and I'm watching from the UK! It looks to me like you guys use your railways the way we used to, for hauling freight. Best way to move big loads over long distances.

[@greenmanofkent]

Oh, the whine of that loco in that last clip at 8:30 brought back childhood memories (60+ years ago). Those FP7's were used by Canadian Pacific in Montreal on the commuter trains to the west island. We lived close enough to the tracks to hear them pulling out of Westmount station, and my brother and I would often go down to the station just to watch the trains. Those were the days. Thanks.

[@pawloalbanskyj2487]

Just watched the video and loved seeing the old FP7A unit at work. The Ontario Northland railway had 22 of the FP7A units and they used them in freight and passenger service. In 1978 they sold some of them to GO Transit in Toronto and the remainder stayed in service. They were the 1500 series units. Some of them were switched to the Northlander service and renumbered 1984 to 1987. They ran on this service until the 1990s where they were either scrapped or renumbered back into the 1500 series numbers (Originally it was 1500-1521). Three of the units were rebuilt with caterpiller engines and used in freight service only and numbered 2000-2002. They ran for a few years until finally retired. No units are in service currently, But they were awesome engines.

[@petergraham2262]

[@jerrylong2025]

Fantastic video. Had to hit the thumbs up AND the subscribe button because of this video. A proper F unit horn sounds like a tug boat horn. Why do I say that? Because my childhood was spent growing up next to the CGW in a suburb of Chi. with F units running by all the time until the CNW took over in 1968 but...who cares....seeing an F unit running in 2020?! is fantastic! As for that errant driver.....there's a saying I like - "you can't fix stupid"😕

They were build i Sveden by NOHAB on licence from GM. There are a lot of videos where you can see them here on You Tube.

[@Buzzramjet]

I love seeing these old F series locomotives running. I always wondered why they got rid of that design as it is obviously more streamlined. And to be honest about it...prettier or would that be much more HANDSOME... Thank you for posting this. I was a train fan when I was much younger and we would always be on the lookout for interesting trains. Got to run next the Daylight steamer. Lordy seeing it going 60+ mph going up the CA coast and those wheels just in a blur with the pistons. WOW. Saw it run twice. Then I went East to meet the inlaws for the first time and one of my goals was to get to the train museum in PA to see some old locos but mostly I wanted to see a live GG1. And this was the most incredible thing. We caught the commuter from downtown and when we got to our destination you would not believe what was on the track next to us. There people taking pictures and they were saying it was the last run of any GG1. I almost yelled something stupid like WHOOPPEE or YAHOOO. But I kept my cool was opening my suitcase to get my camera out and got it out just in time to take two pictures before it was gone. THIS was about 1982 if memory serves me correctly. It wasn't in Penn livery just black but made the whole trip worth it. They didn't particularly care for me.Except grandma she was a doll and said I was just wahat Janet needed someone ten years older and settled. Anyway it worked as Janet loved to take trains too. Took her up to Seattle in the Amtrak Daylight. To Vegas for her 21st birthday almost a year after we met and regularly took it to San Diego and after we moved there took it from S.D to Santa Barbara to my folks place. We used to go to Griffith park with my son to rid the small scale steam engines. BUT after the GG1 my biggest trail thrill was when the pulled the BIG BOY out of static display in Pomona and it was here in Vegas for 2 days and took a ton of pics THEN IT CAME BACK FIVE YEARS LATER in running condition and got great video of it as did a whole lot of others. I miss the days of going out on occasion and seeing trains and train get togethers and riding trains. Still have my HO trains too. My son was into trains as well but not as much as we were. I had hoped to leave him my train sets but when he passed that ...well.. ANYWAY sorry for getting to long but this was really cool to see. And it just brought back some great memories. THANKs again for posting.

[@stephendrivick840]

F series locos were very beautiful, but tough to see out of during switching moves.

[@NatersTrains]

Most of the design falling to road switcher designs had to do with maintenance headaches. I watched an interview with a EMD official, and he explained that trying to work on an F unit was the feeling of working on a v16 engine inside of a submarine. The gp7 and gp9s of that era were much easier to work on than the F cab.

[@jeroldcrawford3431]

That was a great video. The EMD F-series will always be my first thought of what a diesel was in the golden age of railroading.. That was the time when people came to the depot for the twice weekly local for their LCL freight. My home state of Iowa has lost almost 80% of its railroad tracks, ripped up forever. In the 1930's to 1950's, there were very few places in Iowa that were more that 7 miles from an railroad agency station, Now there exists whole blocks of counties with no railroad service. NE Nebraska, NW Missouri and SW Wisconsin are even worse, The railroad companies no longer want to service industries and have made sure they dried up their business through poor customer service and poor erratic delivery. It makes me sad every time I see an abandoned grade and think about what used to be.
