I had saw a UA-cam short video of the train approaching Gustafson Road and noticing the trailing unit was facing the wrong direction I decided it was a good idea to go check them out. The went into Behr iron and metal as light power and came out with nothing, they hooked the locomotive back up with the rest pf the train and proceeded to leave town back the way they came with the exact same rail...

For taking a day off looks like fun and they do take that curve faster at Rondout. For years that NW quadrant was a junkyard that was pretty close to the tracks. That last train you shot is for the most part headed to Green Bay and when I saw the yellow former Cargill grain covered Hopper plus the two blue ones I instantly knew they're headed for the end of the branch to L'anse MI @ Celotex Corp. If lucky they'll be photographed by Mallard Duck in De Pere and Nancy Haun on the branch and famous super Steep Hill as the two SD60 delivers them.
Thanks for sharing!
How's it, Weird? What's cool is that I saw these exact two Union Pacific's in South Beloit reversing with a line of cars into the yard. They were hooked back to back, and I have a video of them in action. GP60 #1057 and GP40-2 #1479 12/3/24 is when I saw them.
Cool, it's just the first I've seen them do absolutely nothing in S Beloit.
I seen a train going thru Hartford WI this week that had what appeared to be older UP locomotives but said WAMX with their numbers. Not sure what rail line that would be in that area tho.
i was hopping you would catch UP pulling the Fairbanks engines out of the factory
Yeah, I was to... but I wasn't able to figure out when they were doing it. it's also ben a lot more difficult for me to get out because school has been pretty Bussey lately.
I already saw that train
Great thing I live in South Beloit
Money laundering 😮
Nice catch
Thanks!
I live in Beloit, wish I could have seen it myself, Thanks so much for posting it!
A lot of moves to accomplish nothing. Every now and then you get some really weird stuff. Recently made note of a scrap Hopper that made three round trips between two cities before it finally got loaded and sent south on the Escanaba & Lake Superior
It was fun to watch the last cars of the SB CN Freight play crack the whip out of that siding. Also an excellent job dealing with the various weather and lighting on the local ranging from Gray and partially Misty to the nice bright Sun picking up the autumn colors. Well done on a slow-moving local
Great coverage of the local running around... Love your local engines as they remind me of ours in AZ. Closest engines to these that I have videos of are 1051 and 1484.. Awesome stuff in my opinion !!
Glad you enjoy my content!
Does* @5:31 maybe switching cars 🤷🏻♂️
Came all the down from Janesville for nothing. Maybe they released cars behind ones not released and they didn’t want to intra switch them out. EOT on the lead unit, LOL.
Glad you caught them! Thinking Behr billed cars to go out but never pushed them out of the gate.
They have a switcher or something to do that?
@ I believe they still have a GE center cab and might also have a trackmobile.
Good show!
Nice
Thanks!
what is bro doing in mchenry??? (my territory frfr)
bud is not the main character💀
Great video! Rondout was my favorite hangout when I was in the Navy at Great Lakes in the late 80's/early 90's. I'm hoping to get down that way soon to do some videos and throw in some pictures I took back then for comparison.
Cool, Thanks for sharing!
3:09 my foamer moment
lol
181 AHHHHHH
Your luck at the end. I feel your pain....
Great video!
Thanks!
I hardly recognized Byron. You threw me off when you said the Mineral St road crossing. That’s Barker Road to me.
Nice chase! Never been able to catch this train.
Glad you liked it; it can be hard to during the week if you're working, I was off school that day, so I had the whole day to follow it
The old sad story of my past life, standing on the wrong side of the tracks...
Yeah, lol
Could never be me💀
181 moment
😂😂
Fun fact: that set has been paired up for like 3 weeks now
I also caught the NPCU almost a year ago on that line
GOLLY
man he was flying
Camara works well, that plain was along ways away.
He was flying, about to come into Rockford.
When does this local work? What days and times? Need to get out and see some CP geep action as I have zero in my area.
Tuesday through Thursday, Occasional Monday and Fryday runs, Tuesday and Thursday mornings they run north to Janesville Wisconsin and back, Wednesdays they run south to Davis Junction Illinois and back. The crew usually gets to the South Beloit yard at around 6 20 AM and the train is normally moving somewhere between 7 and 7 30 in the morning.
great catches love it
Thanks, Glad you liked it!
great catches
Thanks
Buddy how
yes
@MidWestRailFan-1z2eq relatable
Great catches! Awesome audio!
Glad you liked it! sorry for the late response
I've seen 4173, right by my street
Nice!
Omg! Long lost brother is that you??
OMG, ITS REALLEY YOU!!
Really cool chase!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I see no auto parts or vehicle carrier cars for this local. I guess the Stellantis car plant is idle for a couple more years but then will be back making electric vehicles as well as a battery factory. Let’s hope this ex CNW line gets to ship cars out and supplies in once it starts up again.
Where is this location? You don't see too much street running these days
Rockford, IL
great chase
Thanks!
I like trains
If y'all plan on getting T3 or T4 at Whitewater again, lmk and I'll swing by
Will do
Do you ever get up to Central Minnesota and do any rail fanning there? And why so many chasing trains going on?
I don't really get far out of Wisconsin and Illinois
the wizzor also, really nice, what camera do you use?
I use a Panasonic V-785
speak up can not understand what you are saying
Thanks for the feedback, I normally do but I was pretty tiered the day I got the editing done.
Nice paint sir!
