Your welcome

4:00 almost every boxcar on that train was smothered in graffiti. Pretty unbelievable. Go back in time on KZbin and look at train footage from the 80's or 90's, graffiti was a rare sight!

One person does it and the avalanche begins.

[@richkeeshan9757]

I was able to look up every reporting mark in that video except YKR. Any idea what that might be?

where I live in the Chicagoland area u.p. and BNSF on the same train is sort of uncommon but not rare

[@Trains21]

I'm surprised.. I always thought of Chicago as a railroad melting pot where you could find anything pretty much anywhere at pretty much anytime.. Maybe not.

[@rockoutmj666]

Trains21 it really is just a big old melting pot and you can find basically anything there, but I live in the suburbs along a union Pacific line in which you rarely see BNSF but there are other places in Chicago in which you can see that quite often such as the yards. and got ALOT of ideal railfanning spots throughout.

[@Trains21]

I know.. After all, it is Chicago.

[@seangivens2770]

was that a salmon going up stream. LOL

[@Trains21]

Might have been!

[@peter15871]

thank's for reply just asking are you allowed to be on tracks

[@Trains21]

"On" the tracks, not really but close is another issue.

[@cdocker3070]

how does one railroad company use another ones engine(s) if they are not partners in the industry?

[@Trains21]

There are many scenarios that can cause one railroad's locomotives to show up on another ones.. The most common reasons are the pooling of power between roads and/or horsepower hours owed to a railroad from another.

[@BenjaminEsposti]

7:40 Did you call NS to tell them that the tracks were flooded? Probably not a bad idea, trains can't stop on a dime.

[@Trains21]

No.. They do regular and bad weather patrols..

[@leifhighland2281]

I enjoyed your video. What we won't do for love of our hobby.

[@Trains21]
