@mr.sir. Hey, if you get this message, I cannot do RPNN this week because ma phone broke
@@WindyCityExpeditionist You can get discord on your laptop if need be
@@WindyCityExpeditionist Why did you break it?
I didn't, I removed the battery and then it ripped out the spinal cord too the literal screen Tho I did order parts so, it will come within a few days from now
Is 406 still on a doubleheader with 207?
It was paired with 111 a few days ago when I passed the rock on the Dan Ryan near 35th St (Sox stadium)
We saw literally every single other Rock Island District locomotive except 120 that day lmao
We got a Glympse of it, idk for sure tho Well, tbh we both don't even know since the power move was so fast Only reason we tied was because it was unconfirmed, otherwise you would have won lol
@WindyCityExpeditionist yeah fr
When you recorded this 120 was on the Milwaukee District lines.
@@deathmoon7488 No, I was there and it was on Rock.
It wasn't. It was dispatched to rock for a whole month. Then it went too Milwaukee in december.

The metra electric line is one of the few lines in America that uses overhead electric power
Correct
Nice

I bet they have. I never really thought about a hotbox detector. I remember when the railroad used to have problems and had to guy that greased an oil... but I thought that went away.. I love watching trains as long as I'm not sitting in a car waiting on one😊
Hahahahaaa... same here. I hate waiting on trains sometimes. But... usually I film them while waiting at the crossing.
I was a signalman then a conductor most of my working career. I used to install hot box detectors. They have saved many trains from accidents and derailment. Most hot wheels and axles are caused by vandalism, kids playing on parked train cars and tightening up a handbrake 140 cars deep from the locos. That's why all trains should get a slow roll by ,one crew member on each side before a train leaves the yard on a road trip, make sure there are no sliding wheels...usually it takes 2 detections in a row to stop your train. Then I'd have to walk the entire length of train to find the smoking wheel. Usually they were glowing blue hot. Didn't need to use your melt stick
Yea.. I assume that either a employee left it on by accident or vandals did. I'm surprised it didn't end up worse than it did when I caught the train rolling by.
Awesome
Nice catch
@@63Railfanning appricate it :)
👍
Magnificent catches of the train coming by and pass at the railroad crossing, I like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Hearing that amazing diesel sound and cars coming through is absolutely crazy. Keep up the perfect work out there, my friend, I just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Appricate it! I will continue on making it seem more of the real feeling when I go watch trains again. Thank you for checking out my catches! -WindyCityExpeditionist
@@WindyCityExpeditionist no problem, mate.
@@WindyCityExpeditionist the US trains are amazing.
@@LisbonRailProductionsandF1 I agree.

And you still havent.
My dude, you can clearly see the Radioactive Hazard Placards on those Grey Containers the train is hauling.
Sounds good
It is official, I will be on the ex Milwaukee Hiawatha next year
Nicee
OH WOW…Something never seen BEFORE...
True.. a good engineer with a locomotive that is based and has a cool number
@@WindyCityExpeditionist69 = 6ix9ine
1 locomotive, a LOT of rail cars. Surely better than a lot of trucks, each with all the motive mechanisms needed to manoeuvre through miles of roads to a given destination. We in the UK tore up 100s of miles of tracks during the Beeching cutbacks, in the 60s I think, then we built more roads Duh. They were supposed to streamline the railway network. Now finally people are wishing they had those tracks so we wouldny need to have hundreds of trucks passing through small villages, wrecking roads that were never designed to carry that sort of continuous load.
Well... I mean I can see why Beeching did what he did.. America did it too when Conrail came into power But at the same time.. it is evil what he did
Good👍
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Awesome Run By!! Double tracking should be all done!!👍🙂
It most certainly is! I'l check it out when I can!
I just wish that they elevated the original platform of Portage/Ogden Dunes
