For the DODX car on 309 it could have originated in either Binghamton or Hornell that general area is near the Finger Lakes, the Navy has testing facilities in that area so it could have been navy related. Great catch on the dpu alright! Great video WWOT!

Thanks Lee

0:58 You are at Progress Road and Roberts Road on 26 May 2021 as Norfolk Southern train #309 passes with a decommissioned nuclear missile warhead on a special flatcar right behind the engines passes. 4:03 You are at the CSX Mile Post 41 curve on 27 May 2021 looking west as CSX train #158 starts into the Mile Post 41 curve. After the train passes you, you follow it as it continues east on the elevated tracks past CSX Control Point 39 which is located at CSX Mile Post 40.1 and also past the now abandoned New York Central Railroad control tower which used to control train traffic through Dunkirk until it was closed in the 1960s. 6:47 You are in the parking lot on the southeast corner of Park Avenue and East Third Street as CSX train #Q635, a mixed freight, with loaded garbage hopper cars in the front half of the train. There was no sign of garbage hopper care CSEX 16387, the Wide World of Trains graffiti painted car on this train. After the mid-train DPU there were a few more garbage hopper cars with the rest of the train various types of freight cars. 9:17 It is 26 May 2021 and you are at the CSX Mile Post 41 curve as CSX train #Q204 peeks around the Mile Post 41 curve from the west. CSX train #204 is a daily train from Osborne Yard in Louisville, Kentucky to East Brookfield, Massachusetts with auto rack cars that are loaded with Ford Motor Company vehicles that are built in the two Ford Assembly Plants in Louisville, Kentucky. 10:16 It is 27 May 2021 and you are at West Third Street and Washington Avenue as CSX train #Q009 passes on the elevated tracks. This train had a mid-train DPU. 13:17 You are at the CSX Middle Road crossing on the east side of Dunkirk, New York on 24 May 2021 as CSX train #Q158 approaches around the curve from the east end of the elevated tracks through the Dunkirk, New York ln its way to Buffalo, New York and beyond. There was a mid-train DPU on this train. 16:39 You are at the Norfolk Southern tracks along Progress Drive and east of Roberts Road, if I am not mistaken. A westbound Norfolk Southern train passes. 18:31 You are at the CSX Middle Road crossing on the east side of Dunkirk, New York. There was a high flying jet plane in the sky that was leaving a contrail of water vapor across the sky as a CSX double stack train passes on the tracks below. There was a mid-train DPU on this train. 20-:35 You are driving on Roberts Road in a southerly direction as you approach the Norfolk Southern tracks and the gates are down. Norfolk Southern train #315 approaches on 8 May 2021. Norfolk Southern train #315 is a daily train from Bison Yard in Buffalo, New York to Moonman Yard in Bellevue, Ohio. This train works Ashtabula, Ohio and Rockport Yard in Cleveland, Ohio. Thank you for documenting these trains and for sharing this video with us!

Tom, I had to catch my breath after reading your comment,if I wait until bedtime to read them I’ll fall right to sleep….like reading a novel, very thorough and appreciated…..👍 ms~~~

[@thomasmackowiak]

@@mshum538 Thank you for the comment on my detailed descriptions of WWoT's videos. I have stopped writing those detailed descriptions of where WWoT is when he is catching trains to show us. There were times when it took me 45 minutes or more to watch the video and write the comments and then type the comments. Then I also go behind in watching WWoT's videos because of other commitments that I have. For the last couple of months, I have just been writing short comments and thanking him for what he is doing. I have done some Google research at times to add information about something in a video that caught my eye that I wanted more information about the subject. I have added my research to my shorter comments because I figure that there might be other people viewing WWoT's videos that are curious about the same thing that caught my eye.

Lots of great trains and DPU Alright’s! I caught a Norfolk Southern train going through Jeffersontown, KY on Memorial Day that was very long and had a Double DPU Alright about 3/4 of the way back! Very rare to see DPU’s on the NS trains through here and if they have them they are usually at the end.

[@mikelwylie1649]

It looks like the 309 had part of a bnsf grain train too it was an awsome catch though

[@paulsmith5398]

From the looks of all those trucks under the DOD car, it appears to be some kind of heavy-duty container, possibly spent nuclear waste, etc. Beautiful day(s) for CSX, but not for NS, dreary like it is here today. Nice to see no fire-breathing turbos, broken knuckles, or air lines for a change!

[@WideWorldofTrains]

Yeah definitely yes heavy duty. It's cold here today it's only about 41° and rain but I'm out getting videos in it

[@paulsmith5398]

@@WideWorldofTrains we had fog this morning, its gone from 57° to 50°, mid to lower 40's tonight, hope it clears up for the holiday weekend, some friends have invited me for a cookout. Have a safe one WWOT, and maybe catch a holiday train or 2! Was i right about the military load?, the tarp was barely hanging on that DOD car.

[@paulsmith5398]

@keith moore ive seen a video of that very exact thing on BNSF in California, super-huge car, had caboose, and hi-rail escort vehicles front & rear. Moving about 5 mph, had at least 3 engines. Definitely high & wide load. Wonder what that load was on NS train?, it really looked more like an underground fuel storage tank like those at gas stations.

[@StarTard8]

That military load was a decomissioned nuclear missile warhead. I've heard of the military transporting such things by rail, obviously they don't tell people what exactly that load is.

[@deanstrand4260]

That's downright scary. Decommissioned nuclear missle warhead, being transported by rail. Not telling anybody about it, not even the railroad employees, who could be severely injured or killed if anything set off the warhead??

[@blackw0lf993]

It’s empty guys (the warhead not the casing) part of decommissioning is removing the rods and explosives. In this state it is harmless. If it had contained rods or even explosives inert or not it would be treated as a hazardous load thus the railroad would have had to put spacer cars between it and the engine to prevent it from being to close to an engine that could catch fire and burn. Thus burning that car or it’s contents. just because it’s a DODX car don’t exempt it from DOT regs. Also if it had been live there would have been more security IE someone in last engine of the set and usually a caboose behind the container. With all that says it’s still cool it’s a rare car to see on the train and unusual!

[@StarTard8]

The load is inert and there are no real warheads in that missile head.

[@blackw0lf993]

@@StarTard8 yep that’s right otherwise it would have some big hazardous waste signs with some fancy numbers

[@danielwanner8708]

@@deanstrand4260 they take the warheads out of it otherways , no way would they put it on regular train and run it at high speed

[@williamralph5442]

Good catch WWOT.

[@billmorris2613]

That first car looks more like a container for nuclear waste than a ware head.

[@ajaywhite9103]

I would say a steam generator

[@ljones121]

It could also be related to a new submarine, the navy has testing facilities in the finger lakes

[@billmorris2613]

If it was a steam generator it would have some type of an exhaust stack. I have seen many steam generators and they have all had an exhaust stack of some kind. It is on a DODX car with a load limit of 600,000 lbs and an empty weight of 178,000, so it is a piece of military equipment.

You have a great memorial Day too Anthony, thank you

[@SynchroScore]

That's definitely not a warhead; there's no way such a thing could be delivered, by bomber or missile, if it was so heavy it required a twelve-axle flatcar to haul around. Likely a naval reactor vessel or steam generator for same. I've seen a few trains that were clearly military equipment. One of them was about a dozen boxcars with a caboose, all DODX, hauled by a single NS Geep heading west on the Burlington from Chicago. Another was a rather long train of 20-foot containers on flatcars heading west of Chicago on the CNW to Omaha, all placarded Explosives 1.6

[@dboatube]

With no 'buffer car' between the power and IT, it is most likely nothing dangerous. the cover tarp should have been strapped on better. from the looks of the outer covering of the 'tank', that might be insulation, it might be a giant flask of hot coffee on it way to the front lines somewhere. the CRYO Trans cars further along have the cream. not sure where the sugar is. ha ha

[@freeamericausa1]

One question. Just how do you know it's "TOP SECRET MILITARY CARGO?" I only ask because after spending 30 years in the Military. The DOD has many ways of transporting TS cargo, and that kind of cargo you saw happens everywhere, almost every day. Not trying to be a smart-a.., but THINK ABOUT IT. If it was TOP SECRET...Where's the Security?

[@WideWorldofTrains]

It's a department of defense rail car and it says nothing on it so apparently they're trying to keep it a secret! Seems logical to me
