NORFOLK AND WESTERN 429: The Final Days Of The Abingdon Branch
On January 11th, a group of photographers and a train crew set out to recreate the past. Norfolk And Western 475, re-lettered to the now extinct 429, pulled a mixed freight train down the Strasburg Railroad, recreating scenes from the Abingdon branch, and photos taken by famous railroad photographer O. Winston Link. This event was coordinated by @DynamoProductions-trains and the O. Winston Link Museum, and they did a fantastic job working with the Strasburg Railroad to create one of the best charters I've ever been a part of. I highly recommend attending a Dynamo charter if you can, they are worth every penny. Now, enjoy N&W 429 as it travels down the Abingdon branch!

1702: A Thanksgiving Trek Along The Tuckasegee
Переглядів 286Місяць тому
On the day after Thanksgiving 2024, 1702 led the Tuckasegee River Excursion from Dillsboro to Bryson City before heading light engine back to the Dillsboro Shops. Thanks to my new mirrorless camera, we were able to capture the day's operations of 1702 in 4K 60! All these videos are straight off the camera, and I think the little ZV-E10II has proved itself a worthy piece for filming trains! Than...

idk why they hide this song i can’t find it anywhere
That Cass whistle sounds unique, a smaller or homemade version?
do you happen to know what that building and miniature railroad crossing are for at 1:37 ive heard this will become a trail wondering if thats ment to be some attraction for future hikers to stop at
What is that song in the intro?
This is incredible man!!! The music and credits did a lot for the video. Great work!
Thank you so much man!!
Great video Austin
Thanks man!!
Nice
Thanks!
How cool this is that you got to record Norfolk & Western 475 as one of it’s siblings, 429. Much like when it was masquerading as it’s other sibling 382. Also did you know that this locomotive appeared in Thomas and the Magic Railroad as the Rainbow Sun Train?
Yessir it was a very cool event! Yep I know about 475’s appearance in Magic Railroad.
Wow! Great work. 👍
Thank you man!!
Very good coverage of the charter. We hope you enjoyed the event, and to see you again on another.
Thank you! I had a splendid time and I hope to make it to y’all’s next event.
Great video Austin
Thanks!
Very Nice video!
Thank you!!
Awesome video! Bet it was a great night. Could’ve made it if the tickets didn’t sell out pretty quick.
Thank you! It certainly was! Sorry you couldn’t make it.
BOMBOCLAT. But really though Austin this your best one yet! Love the music choices!
😂😂 thank ya man!!
Great video, mate
Thank you!
So, is this whistle a White Pass & Yukon 5 chime, or is it an ALCO 5 chime? The video title has me a little confused.
It’s both. It was built by ALCO to their design but it was used by the White Pass and Yukon.
@@greatsmokymtnsrailfan Please forgive me for asking. I just want to make sure I'm properly understanding this. So, are all ALCO 5 chimes the same as WP&Y 5 chimes, or is the WP&Y 5 chime a whistle designed from ALCO that is different from their own 5 chime?
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I look forward to more meetups and trackside misadventures with you. We gonna stay making memories.
Yessir of course!! Same here!
Awesome edit man!! What a year it's been! Also it's very easy to distinguish what was filmed with the smooth mirrorless camera!
Thank you!! Great year it was. Yeah going from 30 to 60 fps really makes a difference lol
Nice One!
Thank you!
Great video buddy
Thanks!
A very good video, young man! Lots of knowledge!
Thank you so much!
The messed up whistle was a Nathan 6 chime so it was replaced by the SP 6 chime bell
Correct.
Can you send a new link to the discord

@ some body keeps kicking me out
Is there any short round trip departing from Ashville or Maggie Valley ?
Unfortunately no. GSMR is the only tourist railroad in the area and they only have departures from Bryson City.
I genuinely need to know WHERE can I add this to a playlist instead of UA-cam 😭
I wish it was still on Spotify, it was on there like 10 years ago I think.
What whistle does she have?
Lonergan 3 Chime.
Hi can you make a new discord link

Some mod kick me out
Very nice.
Thank you!!
That whistle on 1702
Very good
Thank you!
What type of whistle is the locomotive wearing
🚂🚂🚂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The wreath works perfect on the front! Good angle, too so we can catch a lot of the detail on the cars 👍
Thank you!!
Wow, Great Smokey Moutain Railfan you put together a great train of box cars! Yep, I saw the wreath on your locomotive and those MOPAC box cars too! Thank you so much for participating in this year's challenge. I hope you had fun with it. Bill B.
Thank you! It’s a very fun challenge, certainly had a good time with it! Thank you for creating it!
I was at the train show too of course
1702 is painted Southern freight style now.
The locomotives should be in green or black in Southern railway style.
All Southern fans still come here for Southern railway enjoyment.
I have done the entire run all the way to the next town after the outdoor center which we pick up a diesel locomotive for braking for up the mountain and down in the town.
Nice! I wish I was able to do the Andrews trip, born a few too many years late unfortunately.
Awesome
Thanks!
You're Welcome
I've been to a lot of heritage weekends. This year was 100% the busiest heritage weekend I had ever seen.
It’s definitely been growing in popularity.
Same for GSMR
How does the air ringer on Engine 6 work?
Not exactly sure to be honest.
That was a fun day of chasing.
Yessir it was!
@@greatsmokymtnsrailfanAlso, thank you for keeping in the snort at Almond. Made my day witnessing it during the premiere. 🤣
Probably the best whistle she’s had so far. Great video!
It’s one of my favorites. Thank you!
:) YES!
Thank you!!
What whistle was she wearing
Replica southern 5 chime
Outstanding! Thank you!!
Thanks!!
Amazing
Thanks!
That 6 chime reminds me so much of the one it had in the early 90s. So glad a great sounding 6 chime is back on the 1702. Ether though it was swapped for a Southern 5 chime.
