Top 10 favorite catches of 2023

[@BNSF1458]

Which catch was your favorite?

[@Thedodgerpro]

Prob the CN with BC blue berry and CN heritage unit.

[@djtrainman2]

Probably number 9 just because he gave you a horn show

[@CSXEK]

BNSF 281 by far

[@lizggil123]

Probably ex-sp 6310 or the BC blueberry and Happy New Year!

[@TwinLitz2]

I did the same video, but it was top six

[@JWRailfan]

Bro has seen every lashup on that line lol

[@BNSF1458]

Plus some

[@NorthWARail]

I have seen a few of these and especially 685 as it trailed on a BNSF Coal train, and it's nice to hear the horn. Ngl BNSF 281 has visited here and leading trains in WA, but i missed it, one of the best k3la horns, lol.

[@jacksonsdrones]

I've always wanted to see one of those CP Locomotives. Love the paint scheme! Even though it's just red and white! 😂 Awesome Video Man!

[@MrOntario66]

Here in Canada, we see them every day

[@SD457500]

Congrats on a great year, and the huge channel growth!!

[@cazatrendelalineaf_oficial2500]

3:51 KCSM 4570 is a beauty of a Locomotive, with history since it was TFM 2670 🥰🥰🥰

[@roadrailmediagroup]

Nice stuff! Happy to see the MACs and 70Ms out there like this in '23. Hopefully, it'll be similar in '24.

[@Mr.Railfan]

#281’s k3la sounds almost exactly like the CPKC locomotive I saw yesterday in Lake Louise (Canada). Great video, and happy new year!

[@arey721]

Some really great catches there! Well done and here’s to another year of good trains!

[@albanyrailfan]

Some of my best catches of 2023 include CSX 1973, AMTK 130, 46, and 108, CSX Standard Cab Dash-8, foreign power, welded rail cars, and an Amtrak Qualification train

[@FallenFlagRailfan]

I’ve seen UP 3022 before in Roseville, CA. It was 3rd in a manifest with UP 6236 2nd. And speaking of 2nd, i like the 2nd catch, the horn is the take for me

[@mijicalmagiemance8014]

These were amazing catches my favorite was number 1 and cant wait to see what 2024 has to offer see you next year

[@SignalMan9292]

I may or may not have saw two different SP units leading in a months worth of time and I have seen CSX7765 on UP which is in storage. I also saw UP6706 leading

[@Jaydenthetrashkid3853]

Up 8464s horn sounded like one of the FEC SD70M-2s we had back in 2013

[@Xalenstrainvideos]

For number 6, kinda surprising that CN’s Wisconsin Central heritage unit is running on the Hinckley sub. That should be on the CN Superior sub over here in Wisconsin

[@Thedodgerpro]

also a BC blue berry dash 9

[@ConrailQuality775]

no, it’s not.

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

Amazing catches! I'm gonna be doing one of these videos in 25 minutes.

[@gg52831]

Agree

[@redtrainproductions]

7:57 wow, that’s a great k3la!

[@marcus_rrp_productions2648]

Trying to find some time to return to the mainline. Otherwise looks like my catches are gonna be on the branch. Local fans do prefer 'fanning the branch yet I miss the mainline at times.

[@LVRR-e5f]

Same

[@NSandBNSFrailfanProductions]

Nice video! 3:33 shave and a haircut and he held it on the last one!

[@HeavenerHighIron]

My best of 2023 video comes out at 6:00pm tonight no commentary just trains

[@minnesotarailfan11]

I know I’ve probably asked before but what equipment do you use for all of this. Your video quality is really good and it makes me want to get stuff like that😂 Nice video as always man love the sunset for the SD75s

[@LVRR-e5f]

I missed a ballast train with NS 8103 then a manifest with NS 1111 and an D&H Alco RS3. But at least I've seen a Alco PA1 before and two standard cab dash 8s

[@captainminecraft631]

#6 was very colorful! Have you been to Grandad bluff in La Cross, WI? It’s arguably the best spot in America for BNSF railfanning, especially for elevation addicts. La Cross is also my hometown!

[@minecraftertracey01]

3:13 that power set was put togeather in galsburg the M-2 and WC HU came in on H-CNIGAL, they added everything else on it and set it on H-GALNTW.

[@Kyletherailfanner]

man oh man... awesome video!! although being a California based railfanner its all high spped passenger and great hornshows but hardly any freight, although i did catch 2 h2 or h3 BNSF sd40-2's crusing through old town at like 8:30 at night but yeah. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

[@gladysandoval9795]

I saw bnsf 1121 Leading as csx b118 SO it was Nice You caught 1121

[@ArkansasRailfan333]

EMDs are fairly common in Arkansas along Jacksonville

[@SignalMan9292]

I saw a trio of SD70Ms AND a GP60 AND an Ace all on the same train

[@NASCOrailfan]

Bro you almost miss everything good fr fr 😂😂💀💀 Good job btw, I enjoyed. Happy new year

[@Captain_Lego_racing]

Best train I saw in 2023 was the csx 1776 military/veterans unit… and it was just in a yard 😂

[@Minnesota_Rails]

Nice video! I’m hopping to see more of the SD75M’s in 2024

[@BNSF1458]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but both sets of Northtown 75s are now relocated so finding them on the Lakes is going to be even harder now unless BNSF starts using them on the Grand Forks to Superior more (GFD has a couple sets)

[@Minnesota_Rails]

@@BNSF1458 hope so … just finished my top ten catches

[@BNSF1458]

@@Minnesota_Rails there's an eastbound lined to Cloquet could be anywhere hurry

[@Minnesota_Rails]

@@BNSF1458 can’t I got company over soon :/ and tomorrow I probably won’t be able to railfan because I’m gonna have people over again .

[@BNSF1458]

yo you still got winter break? Nice

[@BigZ-md7lz]

I thought you said you hated GE’s

[@kimberlyknox4426]

Michigan hade a very big smoke problem too

[@andrerenault]

I’m amazed at how much foreign power you get

[@CSXEK]

You was right BNSF 281 horn is sick I love the sound of it to

[@TD_loves_IANR]

I don’t know about you but I had an awesome holidays myself. I now own an SD60M in the UP livery.

[@SPRailfan4449]

Let’s go! Great video choice for New Years my dude! 🔥👍😎

[@andrewzhang6802]

I can’t wait for this new year of railfanning

[@iancampbell3960]

I think the bad weather on UP 1988 kind of added to the shot, so I think it should've made it on the list.

[@RDC2003]

Yo bro I’ve seen 1121 as well! Except as foreign power on CSX B118!

[@YourLocalPARailfan]

Nice vid!

[@mackdoyle8673]

BNSF 558 Was the best warbonnet when it came on Staples Sub and Hinckley Sub Expect Heritage Units

[@HSETM]

That first Manifest was kinda movin

[@kimberlyknox4426]

I love the 1st generation k3la

[@Wasteontario]

Bnsf 281 I saw it but 3 of them it was awesome 😎💯

[@SignalMan9292]

My favorite shot I have gotten this year is a BNSF invader ethanol train on the UP and it meeting a UP mixed freight with an NS ES44AC. EDIT* Its now the fact I saw a CSX MAC Lead on the UP meeting a Wisconsin Coal Train

[@22NCRAILFAN23]

Nice😊

[@RAtheGoodRailfanner_888]

Where is the K5hlas?

[@catherinehinojosa7752]

My first heritage unit I saw was1988

[@TexasSoCalRailfan9021]

Great video I hope we catch more good locomotives in 2024?!

[@ThisisGabe120]

We just lost our only freight train that comes through 😪

[@RealRailfan]

Boy we had one heck of a year on the Hinckley Sub! Still bummed out about missing 6310..., the CRAZY CN lashup... By the way I'm not doing a Top 10 this year. I'm doing a Best Moments and catches of 2023. Too much good stuff for a Top 10! Awesome video man!

[@BNSF1458]

I was almost going to do that as well but I ran out of time 😂Can't wait to see yours

[@djtrainman2]

6310 is still out on the rails

[@UPLAJ5]

Sp 6310 is in Los Angeles

[@Butterproductionsreal]

Wait, so you’ve only seen two heritage units? On #6 there was CN 3069 (Wisconsin central heritage).

[@BNSF1458]

2 heritage units leading, forgot to clarify. Though I do often forget I caught CN 3069 😂

[@Butterproductionsreal]

@@BNSF1458 yeah, makes sense know that you say that. Thanks for clarifying as I was kinda confused :)

[@Douglas-not-Dougie]

I like when the 1st and 2nd Units are forward but the 3rd his backwards

[@MikeLarryII788]

Change Da World, My Final Message. Good Bye . . . 2023 🍷🗿

[@OG-Productions]

Nice video, I was gonna do something similar on my channel

[@ConnecticutFoamer]

You said your username was almost gonna be BNSF 281, why did you switch it to 1458?

[@the_atsf_railfan2926]

If you really want to see SD60's, come down to Ladysmith and you will see at least 4 a day

[@jordantherailfanner7506]

My sub always gets SD70Ms/SD40s on the local power

[@BNSF1458]

Much rarer as mainline road freight power though, which is what this was

[@railsofmilwaukee]

Awesome video!

[@OklahomaRailfan_Productions]

Hey! I just made one of these videos!! :D

[@pinkgumball2007]

did you say september 19th and the catch date was 7-19?

Whoops 💀

But now I know why, it makes sense

UP 3016 leading that first OMWRP 😉
