The first westbound 0:59 had a small batch of domestic containers otherwise it was all ocean boxes. Kind of an odd mix. The last west bound had UPS trailer that no doubt had packages for delivery before Christmas!
I see a bunch of those tarped containers and they haul trash on the East Coast. Great video Red. Hope you had a great Christmas. Stay safe out there. And have a Happy New Year.
@redsiowatrainvideos6645 Yes it is. There is a daily NS trash train from Norfolk VA to Mingo Junction Ohio. Several hundred miles each way to dump trash. Have a great weekend.
Merry Christmas Red, I hope you and your loved ones had a great Xmas. On that second empty coal train, there was one car full of coal...it's at the time frame 10:00 - 10:03. I had to go back a few times to make sure my old eyes weren't seeing things. I even put on my reading glasses but as sure as I am paralyzed, there was indeed one full coal car. That seems a little weird. Man those 6 engines went screaming by you! Nice power! I see you down there to the right! On behalf of everyone who watches your video, I would like to THANK YOU for doing an awesome job videoing these trains for us to watch. Your drone work is second to none and the history behind some of these railroad companies is very informative, especially about that lake that just dried up that I believe was for a paper company. Great work my friend. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Southern Ontario 🇨🇦☠️🤘
@Phantom-Signal Well Merry Christmas Phantom! I had to watch the video again to see the one loaded coal car. Very strange to see that. Thanks for watching my material I appreciate the great compliments. Cheers from Northeast Iowa👍
A tarp on top of a train shipping container usually indicates it's an "open-top" container, designed to transport large, bulky cargo that wouldn't fit through a standard container door, allowing for easy loading and unloading with a crane by covering the open top with a heavy-duty tarp to protect the cargo from weather elements during transport.
I'm a day late Red 🤠. That is a faster n more furious group of Power Trains going by you 👍. Sure wish that guy in the foreground would wave at his loyal followers 😂

Happy New York! The Union Pacific train action at Montour, Iowa on 22 December 2024 produced a lot of trains and speed, Red! Thank you for being in Montour to document these trains for us to watch. You might be interested in this video that Delay In Block Productions uploaded on the CRANDIC's bridge near the Amana Colonies. The video includes historical information on the bridge and the Amana Colonies. Here is a link to the video: ua-cam.com/video/W32XkJ-gqb8/v-deo.html (Posted on 31 December 2024 at 1740 CST.)

@@davidsnider1703 It was strange to see tarps. Makes sense with large cargo👍

@thomasmackowiak You're welcome Thomas! Happy new year 🎉 I'll have to check that video out👍
Great Red - on one of the empty coal train one car was still loaded, that not supposed to be Merry Christmas
@ronaldrondeau7870 Thanks Ronald! I didn't notice the full coal car. Merry Christmas 🎅
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 yea check your video youll see it
Got a bunch of fresher leaders! Ever think about getting a speed detector of some kind? Would be cool to know the exact speed some of them went.
@fallingup90 Yes fallingup90! I've looked at a baseball radar gun with tripod. I'm guessing that would work.
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 can't wait to see!
