Brightline & FEC Railfanning In Cocoa at W Highland Drive Crossing FT: Lots of Horn Action!
Hey Everyone! On Friday, July 26th I went to railfan Brightline & the Florida East Coast Railway in Cocoa. I picked a spot at a railroad crossing so I could get horn action. I was there from the afternoon to early evening, so I could catch the two FEC freight trains that usually pass through Cocoa in the late afternoon/early evening. I ended up catching both those FEC freight trains and a handful of Brightline trains. This crossing is just visible at the far left corner of the Virtual Railfan Cocoa railcam.
In this video:
BLF (BLFX) = Brightline Florida
FEC = Florida East Coast Railway
The Brightline SCB-40 Chargers have K5LAM horns.

Hey Everyone! On Wednesday, July 24th , I went to Tampa to see Amtrak Silver Star #91. While there, I also filmed a few TECO Line Streetcars crossing the CSX Diamond located just off N 13th St & E 5th Ave. Next time I head back to Tampa I plan on filming the TECO Streetcar in a few different spots along the line. A little info on the TECO Line Streetcar System: The line is 2.7 miles long runnin...

Very cool meet! I like this horn too!👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 yeah! 101 didn't sound to bad here. Unfortunately, when I saw later on the horn, It got worse somehow, lol. Good thing my dad was on this side to record this clip. I was stuck on the other side of the amtrak train
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT Lol! That’s great that your dad was on the other platform to get this! It works out great when someone else is filming too! I’m glad that my son was recording at Mahwah, when the Atlas unit came in! So we caught it twice in two different places at the same station lol! I filmed at the bridge and he had a tripod set up on the platform!👌
Train to port Jervis? Or Suffern?
@@RampageRod-kt8mj it was a deadhead from Ridgewood to Suffern
i find it funny how all except for that one brightline trainset had hybrid K5LAs lol
@rebooted.jupiter_ yeah it is funny lol! Do you mind telling me which trainset that was in my video cause I didn't realize? I just labeled them all as having K5LAM
@@ZachTheRailfannerYTit’s the brightblue trainset at 5:41
@rebooted.jupiter_ ah ok, tha thanks for the clarification. I completely missed it lol. Ao.it just a normal RL instead of a K5LAM?
One of the only Cocoa crossing I've not been to😂
@orlandorailfanproductions2010 lol. It's not to bad of a spot.
Haha! It really does sound like an elephant 🐘! That’s great!
🤣. It's like there is an elephant trapped inside the cab car screaming for help lol!
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT it sure is, lol! 😂
Another great catch! What a cool sounding P5 horn! 👍
Thanks! While this P5 is very Fouled its still pretty loud in person!
That is sooooo awesome! Being fouled really give this one a rare sound!👌😎👍
Yeah! It's cool and funny and atrocious at the same time 😂! Pretty much every Sunrail horn has a unique sound in my opinion 😅
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT Lol 😂! They sure do seem to have their own sounds depending on how badly they are fouled! 🤣👍
Deland, Fl
Nice
Awesome Video Zach! Great captures and lots of action! I like the different wraps on the cars too! Looks like the cars and track are very well maintained too! We need more small streetcar systems like this in our small to medium sized cities in NY, NJ & CT! 👌👍
Thank you! You definitely get a lot of action on the system as Trolleys run evey 15 minutes during off peak and 10 minutes during peak. Even better, is it's free to ride! To different wraps, sure do add flare to the Trolley. Also, they have a restored birney streetcar and a open air car. However, they only run those evey so often, so hopefully next time I might catch it
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT You’re welcome!👍
Nicely done! Is it open yet?
@davidng2336 thanks! The ribbon cutting ceremony was on August 9th & service started on August 12th.
Nice catches, this seems like a interesting streetcar system.
@MBTA.1035 thanks! It sure is an interesting little system!
Is the crossing sequence automatic on the P40?
no.
@@orlandorailfanproductions2010 as GNYR said the crossing sequence is noy automatic on the P40. It's the same as on the P42.
Amazing capture between the platform canopies!👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thank you!
Nice shot of the double header!👍
@@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thank you!
Awesome, P3 crossing sequence! Sounds so nice!
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thanks! 2002 in my opinion has the best horn out of all the Sunrail cab cars! 2005 & 2006 are also pretty nice as well
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT 👍
Nice spot! The horn action sounds so cool! 👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 yeah! Meadow Woods is one of my favorite spots to railfan Sunrail! I usually vist it once every time I go to Florida
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT Sure is a cool spot!
nl7
Great catch and cool horn! 👍
@@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thanks! Charger do sound nice when they do the low-highs with the horns!
Must be one of those new "extra horn" zones.
I like the part with the train
Pretty cool channel content here. Gladly subscribed and full support!
Sweet catch
Great footage you got! Any chance I could use some of it in an edit I'm planning on? I'll credit you and this video in the description ofc.
@DavidNightjet thank you! Yes, of course, just give me credit in the description like you said. Looking forward to seeing the edit!
Nice arrival! 👍
The scenery on the sides of the cars looks cool! 👍 Nice short!👌
Thanks! It sure it a nice livery! However, eventually all of the coaches & locomotives will get the dark blue livery seen BL36PH #822 and some of the other coachess in my other tri rail shorts as that is their new livery. While the new livery is cool I always thought the old livery gave the classic South Florida vibes with the palm trees
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT oh, wow! The old livery definitely looks better! It sure does represent south Florida better than the new one!
Awesome, close up and horn!👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thank you! The RL K5LA on the Tri Rail BL36PH can be goofy sometimes when quilled lol but sound pretty good at full blast
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT They sure are different! Thanks for the info!
SunRail 2008 sounds better than it did last year
@sebastianmunera5470 it sure does! It sounds way better. Unfortunately 2004 & 2011 have started to sound like elephants now 💀😅
It looks like 422💀 no LIRR sign on the front
5:26 Look at the Acela dancing a little
I was lucky enough to railfan that move a few years back!
@orlandorailfanproductions2010 nice! That's cool you also got to railfan this move a few years ago. It's a pretty cool move to watch in person.
Siver star amtrak

Is Aaron carter driving on 92 today
Well done Zach the rail FANNER
@@Fec421fan25 thank you!
Wow ct rail and Amtrak Hartford line to Springfield Union Station and Hartford
that's a beautiful K5LA horn
@@steventhesquirrel4932 yeah! It's of my favorite K5LA horns out of the ACS-64 fleet
I wish I could see an ACS-64 I live in California and I only see SC-44
now THAT is a clean mac!
@TLT_Productions for real! I was really surprised by how clean it was. It looked like it just came off the assembly line lol.
That’s so cool that you caught it at the end! Great capture! I like when they have a mid train DPU or especially one at the end like this!👌👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thank you! It's definitely cool to see mid or rear DPUs on freight trains, especially if it's a heritage!
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT you’re welcome and it sure is!
It’s always so cool to see a freight train going through a station! Nice short! 👌👍
Nice!👍
@@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thanks!
Awesome catch with great horn action!👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thank you! 161 sure does have a nice horn. I believe is a Raised Letter K5LA too.
Sounds kind of cool, lol! Nice close up!
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 Thanks! The foul on the horn does indeed give it an interesting pitch.
Great man!
826s horn sounds like 825
Yes they do sound similar when blown at the low setting (quilled)
Some cool catches Zach have a great week man!
@mccoy79productions66 thank you! Hope you also have a great week!
Super cool horn! I really like this one! 👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thanks! #515 definitely has a more dominant K2H Horn compared to some of the other Hyundai Rotem Bi-level Cab Car in the tri rail fleet
Nice horn
Bro if they actually put an M7 propulsion on the R211s, that would be insane💀
Cool view from the platform!👍
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 thanks! The high level accesible boarding sections of the platforms at the Sunrail Stations make for some nice shots in my opinion, especially since the rest of the platform is low level. Fun fact, the reason for Sunrail having low level platforms is because of the freight trains that utilize the route. Since the route doesn't have gauntlet tracks, low-level platforms were the other option. If there was high level platforms, freight cars would hit the platform. That's why the high level section is set back and when a wheelchair passenger boards they need to use a ramp
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT you’re welcome! Oh wow, that’s great to know! The Sunrail stations definitely look cool!
Super cool meet! 😎👍 #826’s horn would almost sound at home on a trolley, lol! 👌
@electrictractiontrainsandt3063 Thanks! If it becomes fouled, maybe it would sound even more like a trolley horn, lol.
@@ZachTheRailfannerYT Lol! 👍
