...Most I've seen was back in the 70s, when an 8 loco team was pulling open gondola cars with a shitload of scrap metal of all types (gigantic old gears, pipes, motor housings, scrap from punch press blanking, steel frames, a few of the cars filled with old cast iron engine blocks, rusted old car panels, and what looked like cut up plates from ship superstructures), all headed for the then big steel mills in Pittsburgh...
Awesome Video! that first train was a good way to start the video with that 10 unit lashup! that Geep pulling the string of hoppers was cool too. The scherer trains are still getting pretty good power these days. And for the closing, the SD90MAC was AWESOME! those are Really Rare!
Yes they sure are, a lot more exciting now than back in April/May/June when it was all "Pumpkin Specials", nothing against the Pumpkins, a trains a train, but still when they're on every single coal train......you wish for a little variety. Was nice to see #7247 again, NS rebuilt they're 50th SD70ACU this week so the window is really closing on them. Thanks Harrison!

GREAT catches, Dan! That was a really nice lashup on 16Z, reminds me of the 8 unit lashup I caught on MFWNL. A02's Geep sure was pulling a lot of cars on the return trip. And what a rainstorm, I was in one like that in Montana a few months ago. My camera got soaked. :D
Thanks Matthew! Yeah that GP38-3 was workin' hard, quite a long train he had. Lol I got sooooo soaked but my sturdy umbrella kept my camcorder relatively dry. :D
I've seen it flash when the gates are down, but also when like an ambulance is coming thru and they want to keep the traffic light red or whatever, I think its just some sort of tech for the intersection.

Here I'm pulling on average 660,000 pounds per rail car. 10 deep lashed up running a v-16 fiat Alice tug boat engine 3000 brake wheel horse power each wheel, 850,000 tractive pounds per inch to the rail. Full inter axel wheel lock deployment and sand spreader on stand by. Let's go with throttle up. Let's pull.
The horn does not seem very loud. Do they stupidly have the horns facing backward becausengine crews complain they are too loud in the cab? When I was riding Amtrak head end, we had safety glasses and ear-plugs. I was to wear my own steel-toed shoes.
No its facing forward, it was probably my camcorder and or the wind that day that made it not seem loud. Sometimes when the wind was right you could hear a train leaving the yard in Memphis a full 10 miles away and then hear the horn get louder and louder. Then when it reached you it was like WOW, incredibly loud. Some like cloudy foggy days you wouldn't hear the horn until the train came thru the xing you were at.
@@andrewcrane2786 ignore this jackass. He's not a train engineer nor is he, as he also claims an ex Concorde captain. Most certainly, he isn't Captain and Shift Commander LaBonte USAF Patriot Wing as he also claims.
Sort of, the extra locomotives here were probably being sent to Sheffield Alabama which is a NS hub to then go out on trains east to Chattanooga, South to B'Ham, or back west to Memphis again.
Thanks airing and sharing the outstanding video series with magnificent locomotives.Endeavors are prominent.Bliss
That Geep was killing the game. Old EMDs slugging it out are my favorite catches.
I loved that K5LLA on NS 1147.
And two BNSF ACE leaders in a row
Nice video man!
Thanks! K5LLA's are my favorite horns
That's the name of that horn? They're my favorites too
Just love listening to K5LLA's...
K5LLA! And 10 engines! Awesome catch!
Great video and great catches Dan! SD70MAC my favorite. Thanks for posting!
- Balerio
The SD70MAC's, especially the Executives are some of my favorite units to catch. Thanks Balerio!
really? Macs to me are super ugly. And their horn is way to high pitched. I prefer sd70ace's personally.

Lots of great catches there. Loved the 10 engine at the start. Great work.
Thanks!
Nice vid! Loved that P5 on The dash 8! (8439)
Wow, I've never seen 10 engines in a row before.
Oh, I've seen more than that.

Great video,,,just a heads up, Sherer is a plant owned by Ga power, the town that the train go's into is actually called Juliette.
when the train is coming with 10 locomotives,u know you're gonna be stuck there for 30 minutes
Nice catch of that 10-loco lash-up with a full train! I once saw a 12-loco lash-up but with not freight cars!
Thanks for watching!
A lash-up with no freight cars are called power-moves
Excellent catch video
Thats why UFO most of them have a shapre like sound speakers I meant the magnet and its cone.
great catch!
ten loco's??
and 500 containers/200000 tons?
awesome
Awesome catches! Loved the SD90! That Dash 8 had an interesting horn on 23N.
Thanks!
So Wonderful video new friend! Thank you for sharing!
Great footage, well done!
What a lineup! Great catches!
Thanks!
Imagine if an SD100MAC came out

The horn honors. We know that the train is strong and fast. Greeting from Indonesia.

Вопрос,а как синхронизируется работа тепловозов в сцепке,ну не сидят же в каждом машинисты?
Awesome catches! Especially the lashup on 16Z!
Thanks Noah!
Great video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW 10! Great catch!
Awesome catches man!!!
Thanks!
Super amazing. Thank you so much :D
Lots of EMD leaders in this. Very nice.
0:20 What is the rotating red light flashing in the left of the frame?
I've seen it flash when the gates are down, but also when like an ambulance is coming thru and they want to keep the traffic light red or whatever, I think its just some sort of tech for the intersection.
That gave me chills oh yeah👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
he gave you a nice hello
I can't resist the lash up consist!
04:12- 04:30 beautiful bnsf diesel sound
As Locomotivas É quem
faz o Show! 😂😂😂😂😂😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍.
The loco's are chatting about their health. Thanks for having a radio on you.
Great Lashup !!!
Great catches!
Thanks Bishop! What's the most units you've ever seen on 1 train?
I wanna say 8 or 9. It was a KCS with ACes in both grey and belles a few GEVOS and a GP38
KCStrainiac Nice! Forgot KCS has GP38's. :P
A NS train 733 without BNSF
Tanks for the vidio, machine s powerfull!
Poor Geep. While all the big boys are slacking off
Amazing video
Thanks for watching.
only had the 70ACe C44-9W and SD70M loading. The other six dead in tow.
The ten loco lash up was awesome, wish i was the loco pilot, imagine all that horse power in our hands....😀😀😀😀😀
airplanes have pilots, trains have engineers/drivers/machinist
brunoignaciogi they call it loco pilot go and study a bit kid
They call them locomotive pilots in some other parts of the world.

That SD90 was actually working?
Yeah, used to see a lot of those before NS rebuilt 'em.
Love engine drivers , they enjoy yanking that chain lol
Must be a cool job! Only thing is they get worked like non-stop. Those guys are always doing 12+ hour days. They do make good money though
That's some beast right there.
Love them beast! Growling !

I would assume they were rounded up to return to Sheffield a hub terminal.
Yeah that's what was going on
Three engines also produce power to pull.
nice catch
Excellent!

What? No *soot?*
Is *that* why they needed 10 of ‘em?
Não sei pra que este tanto de locomotivas pra puxar uma composição não tão grande assim
Now That's Alot of Engine's
Second most I've ever seen on a train. Thanks for watching.
Nice! You should have told me about 733 with the NS units. BTW, did you ever see NS 1030 lead that coal train in January that I saw?
Thanks! No, just seen it working as a DPU in January twice.
Ah. I know Jonah saw it as a DPU a few days before I saw it leading.
Aren't these consists for the purpose of Power Transfers?
