Conductor’s view on board Kansas City Southern train number 56 from New Orleans, La. to Latanier, La.
Earned my like 0:40 in when you zoomed in on that ammeter, Lord knows I had my eye on it as he throttled up.
i sure miss the clinchfield rail road that was the good old days
Good cab ride. Loved the sound of that EMD SD60 and the gyralight that it had.
Very nice
I had to figure out what type of lighting was on this locomotive since I've never seen a pattern like that before. I think it's called a gyralight.
Great video , reminds me of when I was riding welded rail trains for Union Pacific . I picked up the old rail that went to the salt mines south of New Iberia . What a job that was , great people to work with and enjoyed every bit of it . Beautiful country down there , hell of a lot different than we have here in central Arkansas . Rockin and rolling on 40 mph track .

Great video but what in gods name is wrong with that horn?
Great video! Brings me back to my time on the SP. Love the Mars light. Don't see them much anymore!
The by gone days of real railroading!
These guys still railroading?
Yes.
square e bells 35:46 35:57 37:19
Nice video you should do some more nice to see railroads in places some of us have never been
I'm a train and I approve this video! :D Choo choo!!!!
Great video, thanks for sharing, i enjoyed watching, big like. Sending my full support. See you around.
I’ve checked out some of these KCS locos in Norco when nobody was around ….much lower to the ground compared to the new locomotives of present
The way it used to be in railroading! Good video, watched many times thru the yrs.
Is this SD60 Locomotive still at service on KCS?
Where the sun never shines
Coming into Morganza. A few years earlier you guys could have caught Billy , Wyatt , and George on their choppers getting laughed at in Meloncon’s Cafe
Very cool! Live around here. 👍👍👍😎😎
Could never understand why the line south of Latanier was signaled and north of it to Shreveport was not. Switches (at least back in 2007) between Latanier and S-port weren't automatic either. Meets always necessitated the opposing train having to stop and reline the switch for the train that went in the hole. Used to hate that among other things - like the crappy hotel in Alexandria. Every room had something wrong with it from water on the floor to heat/cooling units not working properly. Was always a crap shoot, too, if they were going to give you a ride to the hotel in the first place from the yard - which was around 10 miles each way. They were always stingy about giving your train enough power as well. You'd start out underpowered as it was and then they'd want you to pick up at that paper mill half way down.
I remember when KCS had gyra lights. I miss seeing those.
Metra has them
@@youraveragejoe2 they do and Im glad they still do
21:56 oh mother
That doppler effect was AWESOME.
Awesome video! Thanks for posting it!
Wow! I never knew these SD60s had gyro lights!!
Ran SD60's for a few years before my retirement. Good powering units with good dynamic braking!
710 is the best locomotive sound, followed by 645 and 567, then GE and ALCo's 4-stoke, they are also good hearing. Actually I love all diesel sounds. 22:24, you passed a switch that against you ? When you see a vehicle stuck on track, you will emergency brake, but how is the operate? Hit emergency botton or switch directly? Or set throttle to idle, then set brake handle to full(emergency)?
Great Video Man I Luved it Glad You alright with the fuel truck
got any more videos riding down new orleans sub thow alexandria
No sure don't.
This is one of the coolest rail videos out there. The audio portion makes it come alive---thanks for sharing this .
no ditch lights, hey? gyralight instead?
lol now all KCS engines (at least widebodies) have store cameras in them
why is there a rotating light?
It's called a Gyra Light. It is basically just a visual warning. From a distance, a gyra light looks like it is flashing, rather than rotating.
so a mars light? I thought it was a beacon on top of the engine (like what BN had)
every time i pass that bridge it brings back great memories.
GOD I HATE THOSE HEADLIGHTS. THE VIDEO WAS GREAT. BUT THOSE HEADLIGHTS JUST SUCK.
To bad this Engine was scrapped,I would of loved to Buy that Rs5T.
@ 22:23 the switch is set against yall
Is this the Hwy 90 bridge?
Does anyone know what the short; but shrill, "beep-beep-beep" signifies? It is an alerter?
Yes that's the alerter you heard.
Muy buen vídeo, saludo desde argentina.
Many thanks!A great ride.Excellent video/captions.Frodsham, Cheshire, UK.
