Welcome to North Elmhurst Rail Productions official channel!
Hey what is up guys, this is Vann. I am a BIG train fan from the Bay Area that has been railfanning since 2011! You will see all kinds of trains in this videos like commuter trains, freight trains, steam trains, rarities, and chases. You will also see trains from around the Bay Area, anywhere around or outside California, but occasionally in the Coast Sub if there's anything good through there since I actually live in the Coast Sub, and I do occasionally combine my different recent railfanning altogether. Just so you know, my family can be busy sometimes, so I can railfan at every once in a while. Thanks for visiting my channel!
Subscribe to my channel and I will subscribe to you back in return. Thank you! :)

(HD)-2 UP Baretables on the Coast Sub Featuring KCS and CSX power (7-25-14)
On this day, it was a day of unexpected surprises. Thinking it was going to be another boring day at home doing nothing, I got word of 2 baretable trains. One was a Northbound baretable train (ILBOA-25?) with 2 SD60Ms. One with Union Pacific's "We Will Deliver" slogan along with a "Triclops" trailing 2nd. I got word of it when I heard about 2 SD60Ms sitting at the Tamien Caltrain station. It was on hold at the station until the last morning ACE train cleared the way. Eventually, my expectation was right. It was a Northbound baretable train all along according to my friend. Another baretable of the day was the IOALBR-25 with a colorful 5-unit lashup consisting a KCS "Belle" ES44AC and a CSX C40-8W. It was about time I saw some foreign power again after a while. Foreign power on the IOALBR is typically a rare sight. Thus, it was the BIGGEST highlight of the day and was indeed foamfest!

During my recent trip to the East Coast 2 weeks ago, I was very lucky to do some Northeast Corridor railfanning again at the state of New Jersey, but this time, at the Trenton Transit Center.

After hearing about Amtrak Coast Starlight #11 being 3 hours late that day for some reason, I figured out I should go catch it. AMTK 99 and 507 were the lead engines. #11 had some goodies on it as well in spite of AMTK 99's awesome and nice sounding horn, the San Francisco Metropolitan car wrap, and 4 private cars, which were the Southern, St. Claire Valley, Passenger Support Car, and Ex-Railve...

On this day, I decided to head out to College Park for a day of railfanning with Dom (sjrailfan35) and Guillermo (nikonrailfan98). It was a slow and typical day for us since Caltrain 134 terminated at California Ave station due to a pedestrian fatality, so some trains had to be delayed that day. We didn't last long at College Park as two Caltrain/CEMOF workmen saw us at the station, came and ta...

(HD)-Railfanning around the Bay: Foreign Power, Amtraks, and More!
Переглядів 11410 років тому
In this year 2014, railfanning came out a great start for me in view of the fact that I saw some foreign power from in January and mid-February. Foreign power is VERY high this year for many railroads especially UP and BNSF. Thus, 2014 is officially called "Year of foreign power"! Foreign power was set on UP's KMNOA twice this year. In January, a CSX SD40-2 and an NS ES40DC were both trailing b...

I was indeed very lucky to attend my very first Calrailfans meet ever, which took place at Davis. Plus, I got to see my friends again after a few months! Caught our typical Capitols, Zephyr 6, and UP action that was a bit more than what I expected. We caught the KOAMN, IOATAR, IG3OA, MMIRV, and the ZNPOA including a bonus meet with an Eastbound Capitol with a doubleheader. This was indeed a gre...

After hearing some news that AMTK 42 and 156 were on the Coast Starlight 11, I decided to go to the Baumberg crossing near my house to catch it. Sadly, AMTK 42 was taken out in Portland, OR so AMTK 156 was leading only.

BNSF M-BARSDG through San Diego with a trailing Fakebonnet
12 Years later on this day I am watching this and now CalTrain has gone electric.
I miss that train mural
Nice video. I like 920 better with the led’s.
yep. a train can come any track, any time , any direction, any way. saftey is of the first concern. love it when the first train leaves the circut and the next one trips the arms . motorist facing camera gunns it and then o V#$%^&*( , brake!!!
ACS-64 is a great replacement to the previous trainset
But because of agreement good.
Excellent! like that quality for a video from 2014.
So let's doing anything runby should Granada available something different sources and services industry
My name is Trenton 🤔😲!!!
Well here we are another year goes by and just wanted you guys to know we logged in and watched the tribute to Alex again we still love trains and think of Alex and his family !
12:43 What is that arm and flap that's facing you for?
Did you ride behind a Dash-8?
Most awesome vid!!!!!!!!
New dda40x or new type of turbine??
I wish the people in his school would be like my school and respect my hobby of trains.
What st is it on?
Hello another year goes by and just wanted to let you we watched this tribute again for Alexander I sure he is still driving a train in heaven !
it is sad. as a 13 year old, I know what he's going through. sometimes I feel like I might be better of doing what alex did.
+ktrainbfs no please do not do this please talk to your closest friend or your family that you like and trust today OK !!!
Most Awesome Vid!!!!!!!
Hi Just thought I would let you know I thought of Alex again today so watched the video again I am still sure he is driving a train in heaven ! PS my son still love trains and we are proud of it !
I love the HHP-8's, I feel bad for them since they are being replaced. CSX should take-em and use as freight power for the parts of the northeast corridor that CSX does run on that are electrified, being that they rival any diesel out there....
Look at all those steamers! >>>>>> Chances are their electricity is from a steam driven power plant weather it is nuclear or coal powered! Steam still is king!
611 is also a steam engine.
I know LOL
Beautiful footage!
Thank you, I highly appreciate it! :)
Nice! Love this unit and it's horn!
the HHP-8 is not a Acela it just look like one
HHP-8 is Awesome. . 6000 hp.
Amtrak Acela Productions HHP-8s used to run on the Acela in 2002 and 2003
TrainFan0929 no it did not since the acela is a set of cars that can not be broke apart
+Shawn Young 8000HP
The Acela Regional
Excellent work!! Great video and audio!
Great video!
Thanks!
Very nicely done. And the fact it appears you weren't hassled makes it better. Trenton is always a place where I hear 'fans have trouble with police/transit workers.
Thanks! I had no problems at Trenton at all. Nobody minded my hobby.
Yeah Ive got kicked off several platforms before
Nice catches Vann
Thank you!
Hey vann sub back
Hey it's paul
Awesome shots bro! Very nice!
How was the ride? Already been through this way on the coast starlight to LA. And back to Oakland.
Nice camera work and smooth editing!
Also #6051 is amaZing with its beauty and size, too bad they replaced all of them with stuff like P42's and F59PHi's as well as F40PH's
U#9900 is an impressive engine :)
Great Video
Thank you I will forward to James !
this is for you and your son. If you want a safe place for your son to be able to share his love for trains then please show him saxrt dot com and show him our forums. We do not allowing bullies, name calling, profanity or the act of running people down. The forums are monitored 24/7 and as site owner I am just a skype chat away. This video will forever be in our forums. News of this hit me so hard and with three small kids at home, I take it very personally.
I rode that train to LA 1 time Amtrak is the best train to ride on.
Great video and catches! Awesome stuff!
Thanks for putting this video up. It is a pleasure to see 2472 still running. And I am glad to see that they remembered Neil Vodden by naming the car after him. I first met him in 1971 when his hair was still black and he was working for SP. He spent his days off over at Roaring Camp and helped me to learn the art of firing the Dixiana Shay in my first real job after High School and before i started my Freshman year of College. He did a tremendous amount of work getting 2472 restored to service.
Really nice
Nice! Wish I would've been there, but I ended up not being able to go due to being "stabbed in the back" at the last possible second. (if you know what I mean.)
I hate bullying my son loves trains as well I am sure Alex is driving a train in heaven !
super :) LIKE!
Nice assortment of trains there
Well done! I swear to god, Kids can be so friggin cruel sometimes. I have a 13 year old son. Hits ya hard to see & hear this. Different times from when I went to school (1975~1988). Again, Great video and Tribute. Thumbs up from me.
Great video and tribute! May he rest in peace.
Great video. I happened to use this song to say farewell to my cheering.
