SOU 4501 (disguised as GM&O 4382) struggles and wheel slips at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum
On September 7th, 2024 the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum had SOU 4501 dressed up as GM&O 4382 for their annual Founders Day event. As the 12:30pm trip departed the station the train was struggling to get going. Enjoy a minute and 25 seconds of the engine struggling to get going as they give it all the power they have while wheel slipping a few times and spewing out a lot of black smoke.

As many of you guys probably know a total solar eclipse crossed the country from Texas to Maine this past Monday. I viewed the eclipse in Berea, OH and got lucky with CSX M268 with an SD70MAC leading during totality. More details in timestamps below: 0:00 - Totality is about to begin. Birds chirp and the sky gets darker as the crowd watches in anticipation. 0:32 - Totality begins. Venus is visi...

*to skip right to wheel slip skip to 4:35. For more details and timestamps continue reading.* On Thursday April 27th, 2023 my dad and I were chasing WNYP’s Oil City turn south from Meadville. After making a brief pause to make sure traffic was stopped the train tried to get going but didn’t quite have enough power. The crew throttled up which resulted in one set of trucks on engine 430 to wheel...
4:39 train engineer burnout Ahh showoff Not only cars Can do burnout but train too
Alco Century 430 number 430. Only 16 were built in the late 1960's.
Marshmallows anyone? 😊
Going so damn slow he could've ordered from McDonald's
Nice, interesting video! Thank you. Get a tripod. Why did the train stop? Less traffic disruption if train maintainspeed, traffic stops earlier, and train gets out of everyone's way. Then less wheel slip. Wow. Morons actually damaged the rail?? Nice to have water fire distinguisher nearby.
I have a tripod but don’t always use it when I’m chasing because getting it out and putting it away adds time, if I had known this was going to happen I absolutely would’ve used it. As for the stop the reason behind that is there aren’t any crossing lights, bells, or gates where he stops. Motorists can’t see the train until they’re almost on the crossing because of buildings along that street. The train stops to make sure the traffic lights for the road are red to stop traffic before proceeding.
4:02 All honest god truth. It's look more masculine, tougher and stronger to have the front diesel facing in the direction as the rear. And the front diesel facing the same direction just secondary. 3:45
Good train videos
I can get you a mickey if you want one 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Where is this location the road name and the City i just want to make sure i can find this location. This is a awesome location how many trains come through here per month Anybody know this information????
Elm Street in Oil City, Pennsylvania. Right where the McDonald’s is. As for the train frequency it’s really low, when I went they ran once a week on Thursdays, however since I’ve gone WNY&P has since shut down one of their jobs out of Meadville. Since the Falconer, NY turn no longer runs out of Meadville this probably changed the schedule for Oil City so I don’t know how frequent it is now. They could run down there multiple days a week now but as for the days I have no clue, only thing I can tell you for sure is that they don’t run on weekends. I would suggest asking someone who railfans that part of Pennsylvania regularly, they might be able to tell you (I don’t live in Pennsylvania, I just happened to be in the area on a short vacation when I caught this). If you do manage to find out when they run down there they should be down there in the late morning/early afternoon if they don’t shuffle cars around for hours in Meadville before they depart.
@joellawrence1132 THANK YOU SO MUCH I WANT TO STAY A WEEK OR MAYBE 9 DAYS TOPS TO GET SOME SHOTS COMING UP NEXT YEAR WHEN I HAVE TIME TO GO THERE I AM FROM BOSTON AREA MASSACHUSETTS SO IT WILL DEFINITELY BE A LONG RIDE THERE BUT I AM GOING TO PA FOR RAILFANING ANYWAY NEXT YEAR SO WHY NOT TOP HERE AS WELL.

He grinded the rails lmao
Ghostrider train
He wanted to reduce the diameter of the wheels.
First time ever saw serious wheel slip. Also amazing is the fact that they’re using old Alco 424 I guess.
It must be fun living around that area😅
fire is on the tracks
Call the fire department
I just came across this video ... Subscribed!!! 👍
Good Old Alcos!!!
Obviously, the wheel slip detector wasn’t working may be out of sand too.
Just grindingoff the flat spots
That was a problem with the Hi-Ad Trucks that came out on the C 430 Alco
He is mad!
Those crossings should have gates so the train doesn’t have to stop and lose momentum. Crazy watching cars cross with a train that close incoming
bro went back to the future with that one
🇮🇳😎🚩🕉️🙏💯💯
thanks for consistently producing such great videos!
I'm elijah and im also from oil city lol
McDonald's must be held accountable for this because one of their fry cooks put fry oil on the tracks from their French Fries when no one was noticing.
Hmmmmmmmm , I dont think McDonald’s has a drive thru big enough for them …… 😂😂😂😂😂
Right By The Drive Wheels is a Tube That Drops Sand To Create Friction So The Electric Drive Wheels Will Catch If You Notice The Electric Drive Wheels are By General Electric or GE
Giant Diesel Engine Provides Electricity To The Electric Motors That Turn The Wheels
Hey, Johnny! Get them coffee beans out, would ya?
Cars just keep going even though train is coming -grazy. The rails were ruined 7:42. Fire fighter was immediately there.
But he burn it
[thank, you for you're great video]
There is a first for everything. A train having to give way to traffic???? And wow who knew train tracks where so flammable. I wonder how many wild fires are set off from such an event like this. Good job the fire man was there to do something about it hahahaha. This video has everything drama suspense and the woman comment at the end comedy..
some locomotives start to stall due to faulty anti-slip protection
Wow! Neat OIL WELL SUPPLY underpull jack and Tub tank.
Imagine this happening in the middle of a forest during a drought.😳😳🔥🔥🔥🔥
I saw mcdonald's 😂
Cool video
i don’t understand this train fetish people have
Not pulling much... how did it slip?
What a moron.
How often does wheel slips happen?
HE JUST WANTED TO STOP AT THE LOCAL MCDONALD'S TO GET A BIG MAC😅
Wait, GE makes train wheels now too? What the hell do they not make???? lol
Do you guys not have any anti slip systems?
