Hi Danny Harmon, my grandson Cooper and I enjoy watching your channel alot. Cooper wanted me to leave this comment to let you know how much he loves you and that you are our favorite train watcher. 🙂 We are currently watching the "Trains Across The Interstate." Thank you for all the work you do to bring us the videos.
9:20 I always appreciate the side track discussions. Not all things needs to be about trains. You make us always comfortable about all new pit stops you find, and these restaurants may be handy to even all of us that are bored of what we have ❤
Ive noticed the Silver Meateors and Stars are returning to their pre-covid lengths recently, definitely a sign of the population boom in florida. Great video as always Dan!
What a great way to start the day, coffee and a Distant Signal video from Danny Harmon. Thanks Danny, another great video. Have a great Father’s Day Danny!
Another great video, with a wealth of information, and really cool drone footage! For me, being a comms. guy, the radio traffic is icing on the cake! Thanks Danny for all that you do, and HAPPY FATHER’s DAY!
Gotta give Danny all the credit for being a train video producer, I've watched other train videos, and none compare to his knowledge and know how to get around his area and find what he's looking for. If I ever get to Florida again, I would like to meet him and shake his hand for doing what he loves to do the best. I have learned so much from his videos that I go looking for things that he has talked about and see what's happening on the train lines myself. Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching. Thanks Danny!
Every time I watch this channel I am amazed at the quality of the videos along with the commentary. Danny always makes me think of Bill Kurtis with the sound and overall quality of his voice.
Another great video. If you're ever in the PSL/Fort Pierce area, my father in law is pretty high up at FEC and can take you around almost wherever you'd like around the depot.
Danny I love how you showcase local restaurants in your videos Because of that my family has been able to replace Sonny’s (a pale imitation of its former self) with bubba Qs in Brandon and I’m sure soon we will have more family favorites Thanks for your insight on places we might otherwise overlook!
As someone who drives under this bridge everyday and drives as a delivery driver around Winston Yard's area these are my favorite videos, always interesting to hear about something so local
Danny, your videos are always a welcome sight in my feed! Thanks once again for such a high quality, well done, production. See you out there on the high iron!
I couldn’t wait to get home from work today, eat dinner and took a special time out of my day to watch Danny’s video!! I love all his videos can’t wait for some more!!
Really interesting video Danny, you make an excellent guide to railroads. Over in Europe a lot of passenger trains have articulated coaches, makes for a smoother ride, reduces maintenance, but the downside is that a defective coach cannot be removed from a train without a visit to the works!
I have mentioned before I don't really consider myself a "railfan" but your videos are of such fantastic quality I find them irresistible. The photography, production values and narration are just fantastic.
Hi Danny. That CSX sign is probably made out of Masonite. That's not going to last very long in the weather without a good coat of varnish. I think I'd try to mount it somewhere where it'll stay dry. Cheers!
Thanks Danny for the insight on the Articulate 3 & 5 unit cars with 1 truck on 2 units! I've noticed these on the CSX line where I grew up in Northeast Ohio Akron-Cuyahoga Falls, Munroe Falls-Kent/Ravenna area in Northeat Ohio.
As soon as I saw the title screen capture, I instantly said to myself 'awe man someone's getting a new double track bridge!' Love seeing railways upgrading their services and all; it's so cool to me.
Most articulated intermodal cars do share trucks between the individual wells. However, there are quite a few 3-packs that are basically 3 individual cars that had their knuckle couplers replaced with solid drawbars. I have also seen a couple 2-pack intermodal flats. Some autoracks are also articulated, bit I don't work with them, so I don't know their details as well.
Once again, Danny, I appreciate your visits to Polk County, my former home, and the Winter Haven Amtrak station. It still looks the same, and so does Lake Shipp!
Just don't park your car there overnight, come back with the frame only on blocks! I have caught the Amtrack north from there several times, it is a very quaint station and I do hope they repair it and upgrade it.
Another great video Danny! I love the lunch stop visits and your take on the delicious food that you order. Bob Kozminski Railfan from Middleville, Michigan
Always a great day when Danny uploads a new video! Very knowledgeable when it comes to railroads. Definitely enjoy your videos especially when the drone is involved! Thanks again Danny for sharing your videos with us along with your PRICELESS time and effort! Cheers from Laurel, Delaware.
16:00 458 axles minus 18 for the three locomotives leaves 440 for coal cars which is 110 coal cars. Back in 1980 when I worked at the old General Portland cement plant along Krome Avenus south of Tamiami Trail we used to burn just under 4 coal cars a day in our two kilns, so that train would have lasted a month. However, we used to get our coal deliveries every two weeks to minimize the time it sat exposed to rain.
Did you ever have problems with spontaneous combustion in the coal? I grew up near a cement plant just south of Hannibal, Missouri, and there were occasional fires where the coal was stored on the ground adjacent to the siding.
Hey Danny I’ve been railfan ing in ny for all my 12 yrs and I’ve watched you ever year, all those “how to read csx signals” have paid off, I can tell everything and the speed, so thanks for the memories, I’ve watched you and hoped to meet you but, I’m in New York so it hard to do that kind of thing, any way have a good fathers day
Greetings fellow Nebraskans! Bailey Yard is fantastic! Probably now a shadow of itself, but that view never gets old! Mister Harmon! If you come out this way, do give us a healthy heads up!!
Another great video Dan. Just a funny note. In the beginning when you were showing your fence, a dog was barking. My dog started barking too. Thought you'd find that funny.
Theres 5 remaining active coal plants that get rail service in Florida currently or will be. - Seminole Generating Station - Stanton Energy Center - Argos USA (Haile) - WestRock (Fernandina Beach) - *Crystal River Crystal River is fixing to restart coal shipments by rail I believe. The way it has worked in recent years is they receive 20 trains between July and December, and use that until the next July, rather than spacing out trains through the year. Argos and WestRock get service on a smaller basis, with Argos getting a train 1x every 1-2 months, and WestRock getting a train approximately 2-3 times a year. It is amazing that the amount of active plants has been cut in half in just a few years (Deerhaven, Titan America, Indiantown, Big Bend, Mcintosh).
Another episode of 'Danny's Good Food Guide' interrupted by the occasional train. Thanks Danny.
Haha! Thanks!
You support a lot of local, and mom n pop businesses. I do too, wish more people would. As always a vreat video.@@distantsignal

DS is the gold standard for quality narration 👌
As always, when Danny uploads, you stop what you're doing and watch.
so true
same
Most definitely agree
@@the_halton_sub_railfanI started a discord call for this on Watch Together lol
@@thetaylorwithautism2005 for real
Danny - you continue to be the Gold Standard for rail videos!
I love distant signal videos. Educational, informative and most of all, entertaining. Wish we had weekly DS videos.
Ive noticed the Silver Meateors and Stars are returning to their pre-covid lengths recently, definitely a sign of the population boom in florida. Great video as always Dan!
What a great way to start the day, coffee and a Distant Signal video from Danny Harmon. Thanks Danny, another great video. Have a great Father’s Day Danny!
Thanks for sharing. We always enjoy your videos.
I had to stop my surgery midway through so I could watch this!
Haha! That's a seriously nice compliment!
hi mate this is Arrow from reading england i watch your channel and thoroughly enjoy. thank you
Glad you enjoy it, Andy.
The drone work is first class. I see that you prefer quality to quantity. I really appreciate it. Story telling is also outstanding!!!

While there may be other railroad videos being shown, nobody can match the informative and entertaining Mr. Danny Harmon. Thank you.
My buddy lives just around the corner. Seen that bridge many times. Good to see them doing the construction.
One of my favorite things to do is sit on my porch with my morning coffee and watch a new video from Danny
As someone who drives under this bridge everyday and drives as a delivery driver around Winston Yard's area these are my favorite videos, always interesting to hear about something so local
When Danny comes on,., time to get the coffee and toast answer relax. Thanks for a great job again.😊
Appreciate it, Phil. I'm having toast and coffee as well... and some country sausage.
Another great video Mr. Harmon, wishing you a Happy Father's Day.
Happy Father's Day Mr. Harmon. Great to watch one of your videos as I'm getting ready for church. Thank you.
Danny, I love watching your videos. I didn’t know articulated Intermodal units were counted as 1 car. Your vast knowledge of train amazes me.
He didn't mention it, but non-articulated, one-well cars exist, too.
Love these “day in the life of a railfan” style videos you make Danny 👌
Danny, your videos are always a welcome sight in my feed! Thanks once again for such a high quality, well done, production. See you out there on the high iron!
What a great father's day gift from Danny I hope you had a wonderful father's day and the same to the rest of us father's out here
I couldn’t wait to get home from work today, eat dinner and took a special time out of my day to watch Danny’s video!!
I love all his videos can’t wait for some more!!
Always a pleasure Danny ! Best wishes from New Zealand 😊
This channel always makes my 81 year old brain think I'm a kid again. Thanks! JimE
Haha! Thanks Jim!! That makes it really worth it for me!!
This other 81 year old thinks you speak true.

Happy Father’s Day, Mr. Harmon. Love your programming. (choo-choo 🚂 ) Stay cool 😎 from the heat.
As usual, very entertaining. Great job on the fence, I use Olympic Deck Cleaner and it doesn't require any scrubbing.
Danny, thank you for another splendid video! Happy Father's Day! I need to visit Florida!
Another great video Danny. I enjoyed seeing the new Seimens Amtrak locomotives.
I have mentioned before I don't really consider myself a "railfan" but your videos are of such fantastic quality I find them irresistible. The photography, production values and narration are just fantastic.
Those Siemens Charger locomotives are manufactured in my hometown of Sacramento! I even know some folks working there :)
Hi Danny. That CSX sign is probably made out of Masonite. That's not going to last very long in the weather without a good coat of varnish. I think I'd try to mount it somewhere where it'll stay dry. Cheers!
Sunday morning pancakes and a Danny video. Great way to start the day. Happy Father's Day, Danny.
Mmmm. Pancakes. Nothing better.
greetings from england..great videos
You have the best video production! Keep up the good work. 💯
Another winning train video. Happy Father's Day Danny!! 😃👍🇺🇲
Southern Florida locations like Lakeland county are like the real life Isle of Sodor for me. Thanks Danny!
Thank you to the UA-cam algorithm for finally serving up something I didn't know I'd love. ❤
Yeah, I wish I could reach more folks who don't know I'm here.

I love your videos and always look forward to seeing a new one posted. Always the highlight of my day!
Wow, thank you!

Danny, thanks for a great video. It was nice to see someone in the Amtrak engine wave at you!
Nice sharing Vidio.. very inspiring and useful... God Bless You 🇮🇩❤
So nice of you

The fence is glowing again. Nice drone work on the coal train. Clear as a bell
Great acknowledgement from the Amtrak engineer !
As always great video Danny
Glad you enjoyed it
Your drone work is a welcome sight to modeler attempts to weather car tops. Keep up the good work!

Ha! Krome Avenue. That's a name you don't hear much today. I remember in 1980 it was in the news every day. "The Krome Avenue Detention Center"
Did you ever have problems with spontaneous combustion in the coal? I grew up near a cement plant just south of Hannibal, Missouri, and there were occasional fires where the coal was stored on the ground adjacent to the siding.
Hey Danny I’ve been railfan ing in ny for all my 12 yrs and I’ve watched you ever year, all those “how to read csx signals” have paid off, I can tell everything and the speed, so thanks for the memories, I’ve watched you and hoped to meet you but, I’m in New York so it hard to do that kind of thing, any way have a good fathers day
I always learn something about railroads from you. Thanks, Danny!
I Love your informative videos!!! Thanks for sharing!
I’m here in CSX “Maine”!
Another fun video and as always with lots of great information! Thanks Danny!!!
Nobody makes better train videos. Great work Danny!!
Came for the food, stayed for the trains
I love watching these videos, they're so well produced and narrated.
Thanks from over the pond in the UK!
Such a good way to spend a Sunday morning
Happy Father's Day Danny.
Like your show. I'm an engineer for Union Pacific R/R out of north Platte NE. The Bailey yard Union Pacific's biggest yard
Thanks very much, Charles. I really hope to get out to your territory next year. Maybe we'll run into one another.
I would give one finger to do that. Im in Nebraska also but probably nearing ageism. 54
Greetings fellow Nebraskans! Bailey Yard is fantastic! Probably now a shadow of itself, but that view never gets old!
Mister Harmon! If you come out this way, do give us a healthy heads up!!
I'll do that!
Always a great day when you upload a video, Danny. Your videos are quality works, and I’ll never get tired of watching them.
Love seeing that potential new electricity rolling down the track. Thanks for anohter great video Danny!
Another great video Dan. Just a funny note. In the beginning when you were showing your fence, a dog was barking. My dog started barking too. Thought you'd find that funny.
Fence looks really great. Good job
I love your work! I have learned so much and I appreciate the effort you take to explain things we see every day.
Another great video. Thanks Danny.
The fence is looking good!
Thanks!
@@distantsignal We see you coyly made room for even more signs, too!
Fabulous as always Danny and yes those new Amtrak locos really so look great in the new livery. 🤓
What a great birthday present, a Danny Harmon video! As usual great work. Happy Father’s Day as well.
Great stuff Danny, your lunch made me hungry and I wasn't even hungry ! From the West coast, Thanks 🚂🚃🚃🚃
Love you videos, very professionally done!!!!
