MP15s are cool locomotives. Merry Christmas!

Heck with the train....I want that C10

SD40 pack that much pressure to pull that load with the ACCW behind it

I'm friends with some guys who work for BNSF, and their favorite assignment is going to Creston. And of course, the infamous "Pepsi Cans"; loved by railfans, hated by crews on Amtrak. No joke, these are widely considered to be the worst locomotives Amtrak ever owned.

Wonderful footage of the BN, ATSF & Amtrak Featured. I liked seeing the SD70MACs, old SD9, etc.

That's a very nice sounding Prime PM-920 Horn!

They were picking up speed in a hurry to get to there next destinations.

The 90s were a golden age. We just didn't know that at the time.

Some interesting trailers on the piggybacks, some usuals at the time like Illinois Central Deathstar or BN, but also some others like an ICG or Iowa Interstate. Nice video!

Thanks for posting. Lots of "Fallen Flags" both power and rolling stock.

That was fast.

0:52 interesting; nowadays seems special shielded containers on articulated spine flatcars are what is used for transport of radioactive waste. Seen those on UP trains in my area as well as Wisconsin & Southern.

Nice job filming that trip From Denver to Seattle on Amtrak’s pioneer DMU Railfan Too bad they discontinued Amtrak’s Pioneer on May 1997. I wish that someday might bring it back but they probably never will because they discontinued it in 1997. It would be really cool if they brought back Amtrak service, including the pioneer from Denver Colorado to Seattle Washington

Awesome Footage

My dad worked that yard for 42 years and retired from there

1:45 interesting footage of the old yard here! I still can’t believe that this is all been replaced by a grass field now.

Awesome Catch

It’s crazy how much bigger, and dense Boone is, I recognize the r&w power building in the back of the second shot, but today it would be blocked by other buildings, as well as you’d have to stand on someone’s back porch to get that shot.

Nice catches. Thanks for sharing.

The Exec scheme is what I wish they had chosen for the BNSF scheme, instead of the (ugh) pumpkin schemes.

Wonder that is still in use today.

it really moon walked on us lol

People are wearing coats at the end of May?

I love steam locomotives, this is very cool.

I’m looking forward to seeing Union Pacific Challenger 3985 run again.

thank you for sharing.

1:07 I’m pretty sure that’s at the IRM now 5:04 looks like what is now the Y-OMA201, wish it didn’t run with mostly GEVOs now.

Always great to see some clips from Ames!

That NW box car with MW markings must be for NS DMU operations.

Great video. It’s nice to my favorite locomotives at work Northwestern dash 8s.

Thanks for sharing.

Awesome.

If you want to watch trains come to murder mount and the train and you can sit at the crossing and no one moves

Last clip… the electronic bell invasion begins.

I remember 1788...it was next for red paint....never got it....

great footage! how unfortunate you didn't have a wind cover for your microphone, though. But nice catch, none-the-less

I remember the Chicago Central and it's multi-colored engines coming in and going out of Cedar Rapids on the line along Center Point Road. Multiple lash-ups and lots of paint schemes on the locomotives. Thanks for sharing.

One thing I vividly remember about the IC/CC line through WC and Duncombe in the 80's was how late a couple of the crossings retained wooden "wishbone" gates. Particularly the crossing in Duncombe, because it had black strips on the gate instead of red.

This might be earliest video I've ever seen of a train using the horn sequencer.

Seeing the GP 7's, I always wondered how long they would have lasted if the CNW had remained independent of the mega roads. It seems to me that the CNW would have kept them around for a long time.

Thanks for sharing.

Can I use this video? For a project?

Thanks for posting. By preserving and posting this, you keep what would be lost history, available and alive. That C44-9W on the second trail did look like a an an coal fired steam engine.

That sounds like the Duluth bridge

Thanks for sharing. You captured a great moment in time. I especially liked seeing the ex-Rock Island equipment. Hard to believe we're coming up on 30 years since the CNW disappeared into the UP.

Nice Catch
