Wow you learn something new every day,,, I thought that locomotive was a sd7 sd9 or gp9 I never knew there was such thing as gp35 high hood ,,,, where thee heck did they thing up ,,, maybe former SPee loco ????
@@alfredbaroni2133 A little searching finds CSRX 216 was built for Norfolk & Western. They along with Southern Railway ordered their diesel locomotives with high short hoods much longer that most others, with the control stands set up to operate with the long hood as the front.
The section of line that is out of service from Whitefield n.h. to st. Johnsbury v.t.; is that the line that Vermont rail is putting back into service?
I thought that o\s segment was owned by the state? Maybe the doge comitee will make a law that forces class 1 railroads to sell or fork over seldom used or un used rail lines to class 2 and 3 railroads. That would be a good supply chain solution, and better for freight railroading as a whole.
More freight trains= less taxes; more passenger trains= higher taxes. Freight railroading makes $$$ so tax money is not needed to maintain the track, highways/ roads are funded by tax dollars and the more trucks u have on the roads, the more often you will need tax dollars to fix them. And for those who still believe global warming is caused solely from greenhouse gases, for every 4 gallons of fuel a truck burns, a freight train will burn roughly 1 gallon. That ratio also equates to less heat being expelled into the atmosphere.
VTR leasing 216 for a while, 7324 is down because of a broken spring and something else. 318 is back but i think it will be on the Groveton branch for a while and 216 is being use in the North Stratford.
@MBV2202 I don't play that, but I'm currently working on a small game limited to a small group of people, it's pretty much just for fun and I'd rather get sounds without stealing
I am always thrilled when I see dormant rail lines put back into service! I hope we so much more of this is '25!
Nice capture of that high-hood GP35 in action, and a good variety of scenic locations!

That is a stunning P5, and the cold air plus the echo from the mountains make it even better! Bravo
That Loco looks and sounds really good. Thanks for posting.
Nice video. Good sound quality. I love the sound of a P series horn.
Loved this video!! So awesome seeing an old MEC loco pulling a revenue train again !
Great catch with the camera. Well done. Look forward to seeing some operations in the summer on the line
1:22 I though that was a drone coming out of the sky 😂😂
Looks like 216 is up past its bedtime. Glad to see these lines active again! I’ve always wondered if those lines in Jefferson would be used again.
Does the old ball signal is still there ?
I hope, it was the last in the US. At least on a railroad not museum.
Thanks for the ride.
Yes it is

Great video. I subscribed to your channel as well!

That's what the rumor is, but good luck with CSX still owning from St. Johnsbury to Gilman.

@@ChristinaLarsen-dk1pe Freight by Rail better for the Nation.

@@ChristinaLarsen-dk1pe Like your way of thinking you are 110% right.
Cool video well done!
Great stuff
Nice video - thanks for sharing. Do they have a schedule?
Not really, it’s random when they make a run
That's a cool old Diesel locomotive
Nice video. 🎉
I'm surprised that they don't have someone protecting the crossing as the engine goes through
Where / who are the customers that use rail now??
Presby (at Hazen) and propane for storage (at Coos junction or at Hazen also)
Are they gonna use CSRX Engines for the railroad? and how far are these places from conway
Whitefield is after the Notch. And no, the rumor is that Vermont rail system is going to operate St Johnsbury - Hazens
