Welcome to my channel and thanks for being an early supporter! I love travel and I love trains - coming from a family whose railway roots stretch back to the 1800's.
It's one of life's little pleasures to hang out by the side of the tracks and watch the trains go by and imagining where they might take you.

Nighttime Rail Rivals! Amtrak vs Norfolk Southern Freight
Dec 7th - 3:30am -
Crescent Moon over Spartanburg - Amtrak and Norfolk Southern freight at night
It was night time by any reckoning - especially when it's minus weather outside. Not much but hotel coffee for fuel. A few passengers waiting in cars for the trains to arrive!
Amtrak Crescent train 20 northbound followed by train 19 southbound an hour later. Both trains late but not specially so.
Mixed CS freight in between. It was a beautiful starry night at the historic Spartanburg station but cold!
I like how the stopped passenger trains block the road, but hey, it's 4am so who cares :)
Heavy mixed Norfolk Southern northbound service stopped to let the southbound Amtrak service pass. Nice to see freight yield to passenger service (take note Via Rail!)
Filmed in 4k if that's your thing.

Lineside back at the very cute and charming Spartanburg station - the line is undergoing track improvements and seems busier than ever. Can really see the steep incline on this stretch of line. From what I saw in SC this time, there isn't much flat track at all. So steep needs a pusher engine at the back in fact. Filmed in 4k

Dec 6, 2024: Great lineside view of this line which runs right through downtown Gaffney in a long sweep and nice climb. This train came up fast and blasted through all the level crossings. 2:02 mid-train helper engine Like and subscribe if you enjoy! Filmed in 4k if you like that kind of thing...

Yes! It was one of those perfect unicorn moments that you just can't help but cherish. The weather had been stormy and blustery all day long, with dark clouds rolling in and out, creating quite the dramatic atmosphere. But then, just when you thought the day was going to be a washout, the skies opened up to reveal a stunning moment of rainbow, bright and vibrant against the backdrop of the ling...
CN Freight - long and light - Ille Bizzard Canada train

Another long freight train returning empty car carriers to Ontario. Keep an eye on the rail "art". Hands so cold by this point the camera was shaking a bit at the start! Sorry for that :)

Nov 20th - VERY chilly morning "autumn" feeling more like winter. Feel the torque on this double header mixed freight as it pulls hard past the level crossing. Anyone else like counting the number of cars on a train like this? An AMT commuter train chasing at the end.
Via Rail backing into Gare Centrale, Montreal

Nov 24, 2024 - out for a little bike ride, and I could hear the train before I could see it, so of course out came my camera. It's a unique configuration into Montreal station that a lot of trains seem to head in backwards. If you know more about why this is let me know in the comments section! Enjoy....
Via at Speed and CN freight - Dorion Quebec
Переглядів 16328 днів тому
A bit of exploring around the station and caught slightly left footed as a Via trainset came zooming through like a ninja when I least expected it! Also caught on the hop exploring the space between the CN and CP lines by a freight train making good speed. All part of the fun of lineside action. Doesn't always go to plan :)
Via Challenger trainsets at Courcelle level crossing

Sun Nov 17th - enjoying a lovely burrito on the park benches near the crossing when ding ding ding ding - down come the barriers. Well, of course, I just had to film! No sooner had I sat back down when ding ding ding - down come the barriers again. And what do you know, another Challenger set. So thanks Via for the nice lunch time show :)
MASSIVE CP Freight Train Takes Over Dorion Station Quebec!
Переглядів 325Місяць тому
Nov 7, 2024 After filming commuter trains for 45 minutes this train was finally released from the red signal and accelerated through Dorion, mere feet from me. I was already cold, but absolutely freezing as this train passed - they move a lot of air around! Pretty impressive length considering only one engine. And not all empties :) Spotted later down the highway slowly entering the Cote st Luc...
CN 2 x EMD SD70 Freight train at Dorion, Quebec
Переглядів 727Місяць тому
Very chilly morning which got colder when the sun came up for some odd reason :( 2 EMD SD70 (but which version?!) hauling a long freight. The following loco looks like a GTW (Grand Trunk Western) logos painted out but nose stripes remaining, but not sure - let me know in the comments. Always nice when the driver responds to a friendly wave!
St Lambert station - VIA, CN and EXO trains
Переглядів 309Місяць тому
Nov 1, 2024 St Lambert Station in the dark autumn morning which is on a line that is split on the "Via" side and the "Exo" side. Quite an interesting setup. The station is the last on the south shore before the line splits in two and crosses the Saint Lawrence River by means draw bridge - one at either end of the lock. This ingenious solutions means that trains can keep running even when one br...
Dorval Station Monday rush hour - Via, Exo and CN freight action
Переглядів 479Місяць тому
Dorval Oct 28, 2024 - sunset hour, long shadows. Wonderful light, and non-stop action at rush hour. I love this location as both the CN and CP lines run parallel to each other, ensuring a steady mix of trains. Only country in the world I know that finds use for traffic cones on a railway platform. (perhaps you have seen elsewhere - leave a note in the comments section if you have)!

3.30 in the morning? That's plenty early.
Love that train acceleration. It's a little early to pick up commuters? Please keep those videos/trains coming.
They move with a purpose! There is one daily passenger service in each direction. That's it! Glad you enjoy - please keep on watching :)
Lovely long train. Winter hasn't struck South Carolina, yet? I miss the caboose. Please resurrect them.
I miss Cabooses too! Long gone now. Winter is there , hard to tell how chilly it is from the dry ground. -6 overnight.
Nice video 😊my Friends awesome 😮
WWWOWWW !! That train is half the width of North Carolina! Thank you for the show, and please keep them coming.
I love the trains, but that cacographic scrawl parade is depressing. I wish the authorities would end all that environmental pollution and jail the ""artists"".
Shit, that was long😅
Great video! It is wonderful that we don't have to travel to watch the trains. Thanks.
That was a longggggg train. Thanks for the show.
Oh man, wait till you see the one that came after it lol!
Excellent video my friends 😊awesome 😮 Greeting 🙋 from Argentina 🇦🇷 suscribete New suscriptor 😊
Amazing - thank you and welcome :) I remember once riding a train in Argentina!
Great video. I subscribed to your channel as well!
Awesome thank you! Great to have you here, planning on lots more to come...
@@linesided Awesome. Looking forward to it.
WOW ! That was a Loong train. With one end in Ontario and the other end in New Brunswick ? Thanks Longsided.
lol - pretty much - If CPKC and CN could make it happen they would :)
That's so nice of him to acknowledge you. Was that ever a long train.
Yes - there are some friendly drivers up here for sure :) I am still tempted to count the cars!
Long and lovely. Who doesn't love a train? Thanks for the video.
Ahah thanks - I personally love it when the driver honks back at my wave. Like being a kid again :)
Cool and cozy mood with the lights at night.
Beautiful trains. Thanks.
! Good video, like !
Thank you! Cheers!
Much cleaner trains than South of France.
Lindsided goes international. Goodie! There is no graffiti on the cars.
They run a nice clean operation - love that :) Thanks for continuing to enjoy!
2:18 wow you got one of the two refurbished TER 2NNG!
thanks for pointing that out ! Am going to research the refurb version now ;)
Wonderful! Love those trains! Thanks for the view.
Love the train's colors. This video brings up old memories. I haven't been in Pointe Claire in fifteen years. Thanks.
Love those Canadian trains. How about a 100 car video?
Interesting video thanks. Former Montrealer here that has not been back in 14 years, where in Montreal is Courcelle?
Thanks, always nice to hear from a fellow Montrealer. it's in the heart of St Henri - just round the bend from the Atwater Market crossing. Apparently one of the busiest level crossings in Canada....
Nice trains. Good video. Thanks. and now for a little pedantic nit picking, the germen language spelling of Vienna, is Wien.
whoops, I broke the I before E rule - thanks for pointing it out!
Vienna main/central station - English Wien Haubtbahnhof - German
As always Nice is nice. Love the train's paint job. (And NOT the graffiti). Thanks for this video.
Ventimiglia to Cannes ranks as one of the most spectacular train rides. I didn't spend time at all the stations yet - just one more good reason to go back again! Glad you enjoyed - and good observation about graffiti - lots around the line near Nice, but not much at all on the trains...
It´s called an ICE 3 Neo!
Nice, thanks for letting me know! Will be riding it in a few weeks for the first time :)
Linesided takes a holiday. We love trains! Thanks so much for this video.
Wonderful video and a great surprising view. Thank you for sharing.
I get a real kick out of your videos. Thanks so much. Beautiful train. Ugly artwork. Please keep posting!
Wonderful start of the day! Love the video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching :)
Excellent video my friends awesome 😮like 👍🏻 and Greeting 🙋
Big thanks to you! Glad you liked - lots more to come :)
Love your videos. I have never lost my love for trains. Even into old age. Thanks hugely. By the way, where was this filmed?
Thank you very much. What a great comment - made my day! Filmed near Turcotte Exchange in Montreal.
@@linesided Thanks! Keep them coming.
Would be great if you featured the Canadian Railway Museum (Expo Rail) in St Constant. With all the different Canadian trains through the years, it would give a good visual for your audience. I would enjoy that.
Nice catches man!
Thanks!
Thanks for this video. Always loved trains. Still do. Grew up nearby. (Montreal West).
Thank you :) Glad you enjoyed!
I like that BR 407 in the back!
A shiny new ICE 3 Neo that can also go over 300 km/h!
Amazing trains right? Sounds like you know your variants!
@@linesided I like the new ICE´s much more than the old ICE´s! And in Algodoo, a big game where you can build stuff, like marble runs, I have trains! I can press keys to move the trains, and then I make videos out of them and then in another thing I make their sound and put it over it! The ICE 3 Neo is the nicest ICE, and I don´t like that it´s not running here yet!
0:19 absolutely right. we had days where they would have consists up to 10 cars without needing another locomotive at the other end, this was also during a time where the agency had to borrow locomotives that were almost 40 years old. Great video! - AMTransitFan
thank you! How great would it be to see that again....
“that’s a station” and “that’s a train” 💀 Anyway great video, honestly
lol yes thank you :)
So cool to watch
It's almost like a soothing melody.
Fantastic rail therapy
Nice 👍
