Union Pacific Big Boy #4014 - Heartland of America Tour - Part 2: Arthur IL to St Louis MO - 9/10/24
This is Part 2 of 2
Welcome back everyone! Today we're back with the Heartland of America tour and the Union Pacific Big Boy #4014, to finish our trip to St Louis!
This 132-foot long, 4-8-8-4 steam engine built in 1941 by the American Locomotive Company is the largest operating steam engine in the US. It produces 132,375 pound-feet of tractive effort (as many as 270 modern Ford F-150s), and has a top speed of 60 miles per hour. It's an articulated engine, meaning its front set of drivers and pilot truck (or bogie) can rotate separately from the frame to let it navigate tight corners in the track.
On the Heartland tour, the Big Boy and its train travels through ten US states, and today my friends @midnightrailfan and @jackboy317 are chasing it through Illinois. This is our second day, and following the service stop in Villa Grove the night of the 9th, we started chasing again in Arthur (near Villa Grove) and ending in St Louis, completing our chase! I hope you enjoy watching as much as we did chasing.
As always, remember to leave a like if you enjoy, and consider subbing as well!

Santa Fe 92 at Illinois Railway Museum - Diesel Days - August 11, 2024
Переглядів 103Місяць тому
Welcome back to Diesel Days 2024! This time we're checking out ATSF engine number 92, the most modern passenger diesel at IRM! Santa Fe 92 was built in 1967, at the tail end of Santa Fe's passenger era. Knowing this, the EMD designers had freight in mind, and the FP45, as it was called, could pull either load easily. The FP45s were used in freight service until the ATSF's merger with Burlington...
Metra 308 at Illinois Railway Museum (Diesel Days) August 11, 2024

Welcome back! We return to IRM to see the only EMD F7 to be painted in the Chicago Metra scheme, number 308! Like Chicago & Northwestern 411, 308 was originally built in 1949 for freight service on the CNW, but was also used for passenger commuter trains as number 414. In 1999 IRM acquired both CNW locomotives, and repainted 414 to Metra 308. Still, this locomotive looks and sounds fantastic, a...

Hey everyone, I'm back! Today we're back at IRM for Diesel Days, and here is one of my personal favorite diesels at IRM, Chicago and Northwestern 411! This engine was built by EMD in 1949, and served in freight service on the CNW back in the day. However now it's being used as the engine of the bi-level passenger train at IRM, and does it look good hauling it! Hope you all enjoy the video, and ...

Because of her smaller size, she puts on quite a show coming up the hill midway through the route! I hope you enjoy this video, and ...

    2:23 I don't know who to feel bad for at the crossbuck. The dude with the camera got his shot ruined, the dog was scared and may have hearing damage, and other two guys have nothing to do with it and just want to see the train. Imo owner is to blame, don't bring your dog to see trains, or at least not that close. They are probably more scared than anything, and more importantly, you're in the photo line. Don't bring a dog right next to a tripod, and if you're a videographer, don't set up near dogs. Excellent videos by the way!

We usually come to Deshler for Christmas and I always loved going out to the park to watch a few trains and also come just for the trains. Now my favorite spots to go is Fostoria and Bryan. Ever since they put up that shack in front of the diamond and the gravel pile to the far right, I just cannot get anymore good angles, have not been going as much since.. My guess for the symbol change is for more organization and efficiency, it'd take less time figuring out what kind of train it is. I'm no expert anyways.
