    Man it's a weard feeling looking at your own backyard in a video. I know these spots and these locomotives it's oddly satisfying having our small slice or rail get some love.

    You guys are the Gold Standard of train videos, the drone work on this one was excellent and what I enjoy most is the history lesson that comes with your productions. I moved from the Los Angeles area to Madisionville KY 3 years ago. I live just a short block from the CSX line that runs through the center of town, I ride my motorcycle up route 70 all the time and cross over P&L tracks all the time. They have a large switching yard there (I think) sometimes I see a train but luckily for me they are not switching cars around when I get to that crossing. You can sit there for 30 min or more while they jockey cars around. You guys need a place to crash for the night are welcome come over to our place, you just have to put up with 2 small dogs and a wife that is going to want to know your whole life story. I am baking all the time you can take some cookies with you for your journey and a loaf of Sour Dough Bread which I make a lot of and just freeze them for later use.

    We stayed the night at Kuttawa this past July, and witnessed a gorgeous moonrise over Kentucky Lake Dam. There's something very special, IMO, about that section of the P&L that goes across the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers.

    I’ve been waiting for some high quality documentation of P&L, glad you finally gave us some. Can’t wait to chase it for myself

    I really enjoyed the narration, not to fast, but thankfully not to slow! Love the paint too!

    Did not disappoint as usual, Hot coffee,pancakes,(as I was enjoying mine) The coal yard was an absolute joy to watch, as was the DRONE footage, especially of the whole train, as a College“Basaball” Fan LOVED to see the KY Unit, the early “shoving unit” servicing the local business,the P&L does it all! So glad we’ll be returning in the near future, SPECTACULAR JOB DRAYTON!

    I’m so glad someone finally covered P&L in detail I live about 20 minutes away from Paducah so I see lots of P&L locomotives and my father works a quarry serviced by P&L thanks for the quality content Drayton

    I literally grew up just down dixie highway from the first yard they showcased. Lively Shively is what the whole area is called.

    Thanks for covering the Paducah and Louisville I grew up in Paducah Kentucky a little more than a mile from south yard

    Stunning drone footage on this. Really great production. Keep up the over the top job.

  • @fredboiandfriends5486

    Watching other people cover a local operator to my area has always fascinated me. As someone who lives about 20 to 30 miles from Paducah, I’d say that the first half of the P&L’s name doesn’t get as much love as it should. I’ve seen a shocking number of wild lashups of equipment come out of the Southside yard and there’s a fair bit of action out of the locomotive shops that I’m surprised it gets so little coverage.

    We used to have to get on the PAL territory and I can say for a solid fact that LED light will burn your retinas through the back of your skull but when they passed and you turned around you could see what felt like a mile in front of the head end

  • @ET-dg3ud

    I counted 100 loaded cars, the equivalent of 275 trucks ! Thanks for filming this run. Excellent work !

    Amazing video! I never that there was another Class II Railroad that existed until now! Very interesting! I also like the classic EMD’s, but most of all, I love those beautiful loaded coal trains and the coal power electric generating plant at the end of the video! Love those some stacks and water tower as well! Awesome video!

    Gotta love the "squat shack".,on the back end. A paint job would really spice up the multy purpose
