Many years ago I was an “Engineman” on “The Standard Railroad of the World”. I thought it would be great to work with and be around railfan types everyday. What a surprise I got to find that nobody gave a damn about the job or the road and overwhelmingly didn’t know a GG1 ( there, I gave it away) from an E44 or an EMD from an Alco. That and the Total FILTH of the job sent me packing a year later. As I was told the day I was hired by the Foreman of Motive Power. “ Welcome aboard and never forget, I HATE Enginemen.” I absolutely love your videos and especially your narrations which I find most interesting. Thank you Danny. 👏🏻

Those diesel/LNG units are probably like the dual fuel co-gen plant where I used to work. The cold engine started with 100% diesel, and then mixed in natural gas, increasing the ratio as the engine warmed, until there was only enough diesel to initiate ignition under compression; about 95% natural gas and 5% diesel. With natural gas becoming so cheap, and being so much cleaner, (less dirty?) to burn, we'll probably see a lot more of those special dual fuel power units.

@@NapoleChan The FEC ES44C4 locos that utilise LNG can run either 100% diesel, or a mixture of diesel and 80% natural gas. By keeping an diesel in the mixture, they can use the regular compression ignition system in place.

Nice! I always thought it was funny that they call Florida the Sunshine State when it's either about to rain, feels like it's about rain, or just finished raining. We went to WDW in 2008 dang if it didn't do one of the three while there. In fact, the Animal Kingdom had that tropical jungle feel and throw in Bengal Tigers, Flying Fox Fruit Bats, and an imaginary tributary to Brahmaputra River complete with jungle ruins. The torrential downpours of a Florida Summer made you think you were somewhere in southeast Asia.

Danny, two things you might consider buying for your railfanning trips. The first is a fluorescent yellow baseball cap. I use mine to wave to the engineers. Talked to one and they really appreciate acknowledgment of their approaching train. Not expensive and on Amazon. The second, especially for when it's raining, is one of those pop-up canopies. Great to get under during the worst of the downpour. Only problem is you have to put it in your vehicle when it's dripping wet. Thanks for the video. Jon, Railfan 439, Union Pacific, Pacific Coast Line, Santa Barbara Sub, M.P. 405
@distantsignal5 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jon. Yes, I usually wave to the crews. A pop-up is nice. I've got one of those too. Can't use one while running and gunning, though. Way too much time to set up and take down. Might try one in a place like Folkston or Austell, though.
