BNSF Office Car SPECIAL

[@christopherdibble5872]

The engineers don't wave from the trains anymore, not like they did back in 1954 still get a tear in my eye when I hear an old train in the night.

[@therailfanman2078]

I didn't know BNSF had an office car special. I see the pan am office car special in Maine but I might see the csx one when csx buys pan am railways. I don't know what will happen to the pan am ocs train once csx buys pan am, Hopefully it gets preserved

[@v12productions]

Yeah, the F Units Pan Am has look really sharp.

The Rest of us take Cabs, Public Transportation, Uber, Shuttle, Rental, etc. The BNSF Execs Ride the Shiny Silver Express. 🤔👍

[@meandmyrccar1336]

Living on the BNSF railway in Kansas is really nice I get to see amazing trains a bunch of warbonnets but this passenger train I see about twice every other week! I will try to record some clips of it going by and send it to you! Have an amazing day and it’s my dad’s birthday today so if you could say happy birthday to him he would love it! He always loves your videos when they come out!

[@csxnstrainman]

Nice! I managed to catch it both coming into Augusta and when it combined with the NS OCS when it left.

[@v12productions]

That's awesome!

[@MrJuarez1]

I was there at Austell when it passed

[@KDubielak]

I bet the crew give you a horn slaut and a wave

[@kennethfortuna6301]

Saw this BNSF train on NS line near Bronsan Yard in Macon, GA on April 6th 2024. This video explains why it was in GA. Makes sense for Masters in Augusta.

[@ontariorail1251]

Dam that’s one clean engine. Especially for bnsf 😂😂

[@jeff82chevy]

Yea. They always seem to pull them off a dp unit on a coal train and make us wash them for 2 days to get them clean

[@neooooo6127]

Atlanta might have traffic, but they get heritage units and cool power every day. Here in Columbus Ohio we have a major NS line, but we only get 1-3 heritage units per week usually, and half the time its hard to catch them because they sometimes stop for hours in unknown places without being reported or heard on scanners. Its way easier to catch soutbounders because they rarely stop, and they usually get reported from webcams, making them way easier to time correctly.

[@tommyhunter1817]

The 3696 looks AWESOME.

[@RadioactiveSherbet]

I railfanned at Austell, GA, a couple times when I lived in Atlanta. Now I'm all the way on the other side of the country. Thanks for bringing back memories of the Atlanta Amtrak station, too!

[@Ashley_van_Schooneveld]

This year I spotted a BNSF executive train passing through North Bend, BC on CPKC Thompson sub very far away from their home grounds.

[@FeatherFoot_VRC]

This was a treat for sure, I remember earlier that morning I was just laying in bed till I saw a post on a Facebook group that it was on the move so I grabbed my gear and headed out to Locust Grove.

[@hamradiojim6788]

If you didn't think this was important enough to put the effort you did into it, we would have never gotten to see this unique office car special. Thank you for sacrificing all your time to make a GREAT three minutes of video for us!

[@v12productions]

I enjoyed making it! Thanks for watching!

[@jordonfreeman166]

I see those BNSF coal trains coming thru Dalton all the time. This week (April 17th-April 24th), Dalton is Virtual Railfan’s Cam of The Week and is on their KZbin channel this week.

[@JL_Rail_Videography]

I believe BNSF coal trains can range anywhere from 7 to 14 thousand feet, definitely cool to see the mega coal trains as the 14 or so thousand feet ones are called

1:37: I love the horn

[@distantsignal]

Really nice video! I love your sequencing and storytelling. Also, how did you do that time-lapse at 4:39? Time-Lapse is one technique I have not tried and, even though short, your was a really nice shot.

[@v12productions]

Thanks Danny! I used my GoPro for that. Most new cameras, even mirrorless and DSLRs, have built in timelapse functions. Just lock in your exposure and white balance and let it go! I then import all the images into Davinci Resolve and it automatically makes the timelapse for me.

[@KDubielak]

Yo Danny Harman it has been a very long time

[@Kingofdestruction2019]

Quick question can people ride the Office Train or is it just for special people like VIP’s?

[@JasonVoorhees997]

man that was actually my first time seeing an office car special you don't see those here in San Antonio you definitely don't see him here in Texas this video was the first time of me is seeing an office car special especially pulled by one of the cleanest BNSF locomotives I've ever seen every time I see a BNS locomotive most of them are like dirty as hell so @v12productions thanks for giving me a first-hand look at this office car special keep up the good content and I hope you have a great day man

[@v12productions]

Thanks for watching!

[@NSCSXRailfan457]

Nice!! I got it in Augusta parked with the NS and my dad caught it also at work, another bonus after i saw CSX going to NS, I saw 1776 parked.

[@v12productions]

Sweet!

Where was csx 1776 and where is it heading next

Wish I could see some of these on the Harrisburg Pittsburgh line up here in PA

[@lamontbowe8511]

[@donsgotmoney]

I caught this same unit in 2010 at the Tunis siding in Stockbridge. Pretty exciting stuff right there. I do believe however, the motive power pulling this train is way cleaner than the one i caught.

[@Manwholikestrains]

I have a spot that’s relatively easy to get to if you can get there as early as possible as to beat the Atlanta traffic also 3 minutes of footage is better than no footage even if it’s something that you don’t see every day

[@fordfarmer6465]

Whittier Mill Village showing out! I love living here, this spot is two stop signs from my house and where I go to wind down after work.

[@v12productions]

Cool! I think some of your neighbors were there picking up trash while I was recording this. Nice folks and very nice of them to do that.

[@vuurvrproductions4656]

[@charlottesvillerailfan]

The reason it went north was because it got routed the wrong way and i believe someone with NS thought it was going to Altoona.

[@lukefarmer4239]

Did you use to work at NS?

Very nice OCS. I enjoy your videos very much. I'll be in Atlanta next month, may have to check out CP Bridge. Thanks for posting. Scott
