Lol your making me want to visit Chicago and try a lot of these spots Mike! Again another great video! I think I was cheering on some of these trains also! :)
Cool video of these trains in Chicago, Illinois. Chicago has a lot of cool trains. I would like to visit the trains in Chicago, Illinois. I am going to be visiting the California State Railroad Museum today. I am also going to be riding the Santa Cruz Big Trees & Pacific Railroad from Roaring Camp, for their Holiday Lights Train on either December 3rd or 4th of 2022.
Fantastic video showing the variety of Amtrak, Metra and CP trains. The different locomotives and railway carriages on the passenger trains are very nice. Great long freight trains. Excellent filmed. Wish a nice weekend.
Thanks for sharing your video and information. I grew up in Chicago and have family & friends still living in the area. I traveled from Carbondale via AMTRAK to Union Station Chicago then METRA to Harvard IL. a few years ago. The Food Service attendant on AMTRAK train had graduated from High School as I. He pointed out some historical locations & coaling stations along the tracks
Great video! Nice to see you around my home territory. That story hill spot looks great. Surprisingly, I’ve never been there. I’ll have to go sometime.
Awesome job Mike! Glad you got to come to the Midwest again! Loved the CP Amtrak And Metra Footage! Also appreciate you visiting Southern Wisconsin as I hope the next generation railfans appreciate the Midwest a lot more! This video really made my day!
Great video ad always Mike. Chicago is one of the places on my bucket list to railfan. I have already taken Amtrak Empire builder 7 to Seattle from Chicago
@@CoasterFan2105 Not a problem, and I know right? I was in town for a week lol, it is a nice angle up there, that bridge is just a little shaky when the trains are coming by lol. We hung out til after 246 came by and headed towards town.
Nice video Mike! You did quite the documentary of stuff along the CP Chicago & Milwaukee Sub. In reference to what you said about Amtrak planning to extend sevice for the Hiawatha, I honestly think that would be a great idea because from the timetable, it makes it look a lot more like an express commuter train run, and I also think different cities in Wisconsin really could use commuter rail like Milwaukee, Green Bay, Janesville, Madison and Wisconsin Dells along with some form of metro, subway and/or light rail service. In addition to that, I'm kinda disappointed on the capacity Amtrak's Hiawatha has had with the trains now being formed of 3 or 4 coaches mostly. I would be kinda happy if the state sponsored services would get some new doubledecker coaches like maybe if Alstom had something in mind since Nippon Sharyo's deal was a bust. Not to mention, I think maybe a Tier 4 style of the Genesis would be amazing to see on Amtrak, even for the state sponsored services in California - maybe North Carolina and the Midwest as well!
@@CoasterFan2105 Indeed, because in my opinion, the condition of Amtrak's trains for capacity and whatnot is not looking in good shape. Something I would love to see is Multiple Unit sets for the services, as one of my friends came up with ideas in which I wanna try to have a further talk with Amtrak, a few other rail agencies and the train manufacturers to see if they would be a great idea. Heck I think we also need more electric trains too.

It’s a great place to see a wide variety of freight trains. Many thanks!
I'm loving that new Canadian Pacific paint scheme!
Great film Mike really enjoyed this.
Im so glad this legend is still alive
Cool video Coaster! I don’t get to see Amtrak, NS, CSX, or Metra. I live in Canada, and i only see CN and CP which isn’t very frequent.
Thanks! Amtrak runs in just a few places in Canada.
@@CoasterFan2105 which parts?
You forgot via rail, Toronto go transit, and the Canadian rocky mountaineer train.
@@nortonhatfield7312 oh.
@@nortonhatfield7312 There is also Montréal EXO, and Vancouver West Coast Express.

I've been interested to film in Chicago for YEARS now
It’s a great place to see trains!
Good job Mike! Some years ago i visited Chicago and i rode a train between Chicago and Milwaukee.

Thank you!
Great video Mike! 👏🏽
Thank you!
I saw many of those Hiawatha trains on my commutes in the northern suburbs for 3 years along with the occasional Metra.
Epic Sunday action on Canadian Pacific's Chicago & Milwaukee Sub with Amtrak, Metra & Canadian Pacific.
This video is really cool Mike
👍👍👍👍
Sensational video.👍👍🙋♂🤩
Many thanks!
@@CoasterFan2105 i'm always watching your videos.😍
I LOVE 2022
Man these trains never get old at all! But it’s sad that some of the old circle shaped signals are gonna be gone soon
Yeah, the searchlight signals were pretty neat.
Great video! Nice to see you around my home territory. That story hill spot looks great. Surprisingly, I’ve never been there. I’ll have to go sometime.
Thank you! It's a nice spot. I happened to get lucky with that one!
@@CoasterFan2105 sure did!
I've seen many Trains in Chicagoland.
Very cool!
Nice catches! How long were you in Chicago for?
The details are good!
Awesome job Mike! Glad you got to come to the Midwest again! Loved the CP Amtrak And Metra Footage! Also appreciate you visiting Southern Wisconsin as I hope the next generation railfans appreciate the Midwest a lot more! This video really made my day!
Happy Veterans Day
Happy Veterans Day!
@@CoasterFan2105 Thanks
Great video ad always Mike. Chicago is one of the places on my bucket list to railfan. I have already taken Amtrak Empire builder 7 to Seattle from Chicago
Thanks, Sam! If you like trains, it’s worth a visit!
Well 3985 and 5511 steam locomotives are on there way to Illinois
Yea they are!
Impressive work there.
Milwaukee Road MP36PH 405 is 1️⃣ of my fav Heritage Units

Also santa fe 3751 overhaul is done she returned to service in September 2022
Indeed! I saw 3751 back in September!
Number 18
Nice video sir!! How about that, that was my buddy Danny and I up on the bridge in Rondout! Thought I saw someone down at ground level there!
Thank you! What are the odds of that?! Did you get a good shot from up there?
@@CoasterFan2105 Not a problem, and I know right? I was in town for a week lol, it is a nice angle up there, that bridge is just a little shaky when the trains are coming by lol. We hung out til after 246 came by and headed towards town.
@@trainutjob Yeah, I got the afternoon rush from up there in 2016. It's a nice view but you're right, it is shaky hahaha
I have a question for the Q&A. Where did you go for your first train related road trip?
I may lose track of it here so remind me when I ask for questions next month!
ooo the cp orange livery

Thanks for your insight! It would be nice to see more cars on the Hiawatha trains again. Hopefully soon!

There was a plan to use tango passenger cars on the hiawatha, but that place was canceled.
i think Metra wanted to revive the f40c on a different face the sd70mach

I never seen a CP painted in Orange, they are always painted in Red.
Yes! This is a rather unique unit. There is one other locomotive in the CP fleet painted in this orange color.
@@CoasterFan2105 Great Thanks.
Can you do a train talk episode about New Jersey Transit, Metro-North, and Long Island Railroad on next month?
Eventually, I’d like to do one on each of those railroads.
Can you do trains in Oregon if you get a chance. Also nice video that catch with CP 8781 was great.
Hi
Hey Mike are you going to do a locomotive farewell video for the Coaster F59PHI locomotives?
For some weird reason Metra Refuses to purchase locos with engines built other than EMD despite the possible fact that EMD no longer exists.
EMD does Exist its now called Progress Rail
Hey my friend get ready to see union pacific 3985, 5511 and 6936 now on the way.
I did know Chicago metra is using amtrak pacific surfliner locomotives.
Did you Railfan at Edgebrook because I might have seen you on a train
What comes in the future for Metra
SD70MAC locomotives should be entering service very soon.
Ex-Milwaukee Road.
I wished Amtrak kept the F59PHI’s😔
Do train engineers need passports to cross the US/Canada border?
9:46 the fart I make when I got scared.
00:00
I like the video but you didn’t always say where it’s goin😊
It was on the screen but you didn’t say it and maby people who can’t reed or pearled who are blind watch this
You sometimes did
you forgot about south shore
kcs + cp = kccp
KCS+CP=CPKC.
Green Procor tank cars? Never seen that before.
Amazing video
Thank you!
