Hi, I'm Brian. NS Chicago Line and CN South Bend sub aficionado
NS 28X - Matt's last ride on the Chicago Line..for now
NS 28X of the 30th of November going through Mishawaka, IN. Matt made the decision to transfer to Bellevue so no more Matt on the Chicago Line for a while. They were slowing down to go onto the "Early Bird" in Elkhart for a engine swap. PTC on NS 4237 was not working so they decided to put the 3rd unit, NS 7603, on front. Left Elkhart around 5:30PM, about an hour after it went through Mishawaka. They had every yard guy in Elkhart getting that engine swapped out for them lol

CPKC Holiday Train 2024 - Elkhart and Mishawaka, IN
Переглядів 56521 день тому
CPKC Holiday Train NS symbol 02H-21 going through Elkhart, Indiana at around 4:55AM 11/26/2024. Mishawaka around 5:37AM. Seems like they got the engine fixed so only one unit on the front end. Feel like a real foamer chasing it from Elkhart to Mishawaka but I knew I had time with their crew change. Yay Christmas time!
Fostoria, Ohio NS 425 meets Local L70

Took a day trip to Fostoria, Ohio to watch trains. Lots of CSX but, go figure, I only got drone video of the NS trains that came through. Here we see empty coal train NS 425 going westbound and shortly after we see NS local L70 heading into NS Blair yard in Fostoria, OH. Beautiful late October weather was perfect for hanging out and watching trains!

Glow worm leading 268 heading to the fuel pad in Elkhart to swap crews. Train that was sitting on main 1 was a 37M. He was waiting for his conductor to get cabbed back to the head end from a train inspection. New rules (couple months back) states trains leaving the yard have to complete a full train inspection (north and south side). They will pull up to the watertower at the 429.1 signal and w...

Great catch BD!
I was there in Elkhart to see it pass through. I even saw you with your drone! I was going to fly my drone to make a video, but I have a smaller drone than yours, and it was a bit windy for me to be able to control it and get a decent video.
I think I even got the idea of bringing a drone from seeing you last year with your drone!
Boo!
Liked the effect provided by the sun going down.
Enjoyed the top-down view of the coil cars.
How rude!
Great video my friend and that was one long empty coal train great drone video glad you had a great time there
Very nice!!

One of the best looking locomotives out there! Great capture!
I agree! Thank you sir
Awesome drone shot! Do you know how that the US is trying to ban DJI drones from being used here?
Nice job catching this one BD, first time ever on the Chicago Line
Great shot BD! Fresh out of the paint shop
Love me some Big Blue beautiful shot
Nice drone shot BD loved the view
Nice shot BD!
Nice Video BD!
Watch out for those wires! 😄
Nice Video BD! I really like the angle that allows you to see into open rail cars.
nice video!
Great video of the lights of the CPKC Holiday Train!
Great video Bryan that was a nice sized tanker train you getting that drone working real well keep it up buddy
Thanks David!
Nice catch i saw this on the virtual railfan camera there
Splendiferous!
Nice!! I was in Osceola. I should’ve brought my drone too!
Terrific video! Love the engineer adding a Jingle Bells horn touch.
Yeah, that is a thing that I love that they do!
CPKC Holiday Train traveling through Indiana.
Very Nice
First 😉
Yeah yeah whatever you say pal
Awesome video
Glad you got out there BD with the drone.
TRAINS
Sweet catch of 8099 great video BD
Nice catch BD, first kid on your block to capture it! 😀 Love the sound of that power.
Nice BD, I think I may understand why this G train typically has the mid-dpu. This train is a stitch of two trains with cars that originate in Bethlehem, and with cars from Harrisburg.
This is a great drone view of the NS 23G and the surrounding terrain! Only see this train from the VRF Elkhart cam at the ground-level view, so this was refreshing. Noticed for the first time there is another caboose at the NYC museum on the SE corner of the property. 23G also had a GMH trailer which is a first for me, a Vermont based shipper (nice catch).
Believe it or not, that was my first time at the Elkhart station. Such a cool place to hang out and watch some trains. I also noticed that GMH trailer! The trailers we don't see much always stick out. Looks like another small transportation company in Vermont. Always nice to see something different!
great drone shot great video BD
Thank you David!
When we first saw this new train through Elkhart, the first couple of days they were so long, we nick-named it "22Huge".
29G with a few Yellow pups that are now just a footnote in trucking history. Glad you caught them for the archives!
That GECX2037 was among the pre-preproduction ET44AC testbeds for the majors to test all the engineering advances required to meet the EPA Tier 4 mandate. GE at the time considered these to be ES44AC models, but with all the changes they decided to release the production models after this as the ET44AC.
Beautiful recording 👍
WOAH!
I remember that conversation!
Feel the Power!
Love that bridge! Cool spot to railfan.
I love the PA, she's an old friend of mine, countless hours chasing and riding behind her in her D&H days. Saw her at the Streamliners event in Carolina. too. I'm so glad Mr. McCormick saved her and now she'll be near my home. Now if we could only get 17 and 18 home.
Nice shot BD!
