Georgia Central’s Geeps: EMD Classics on Train L781
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- There’s nothing quite like the sound of non-turbo charged EMD 645s - and on this hot and muggy September day, four GP38-2s would be powering Georgia Central train L781 through the heart of the Peach State. Often overlooked by railfans, this Genesee & Wyoming shortline might be Georgia’s best-kept secret.

GP38-2s. A classic.
Yes we have them here in Australia also, but they are t presented in the same clean looking scenario as the Georgia Central Locos. And yes they have the same paint scheme. Anyway I always enjoy your video presentations which gives an interesting insight into American railroad workings. 👍👍👍 ✌️out.
Another great video! Y’all are always welcome when I’m there!
Hey, thank you! That means a lot. Thanks for putting on a good show for us by working those old EMDs. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting and look forward to shooting the GE locomotives during my next visit. -Drayton
I always liked the G&W paint. Easy to spot and the bright colors are always happy looking.
The BNSF is close but not nearly as bright. Maybe they had just been washed.

Another great info packed vid....I model the B&P and been to Butler PA yard and up to Petrolia Branch to watch switching. Ya love catch of the X-SD45 you can hear the heartbeat pound....and pound and pound some more. Super job man you and your crew
Thomas I railfan the B&P in Butler and what scale do you model
Gennesse and wyoming is a love hate subject. Without them many of the railroads they have bought would have disappeared. But with them comes a more class 1 style of railroading taking away the things that make short lines special. I don't personally mind their paint scheme to much but there are still plenty of independent shortlines out there still running strong.
I like the clever adoptable logo. The U&R here in Utah is changing from red to and gray to orange too.
Good views, good audio. Thumbs Up!
Here in the UK the orange and black livery is starting to appear on Class 66s class 70s and class 90 electric locomoitves as Genesee and Wyoming now own Frieghtliner over here
Great production as always!
I am learning from you thank you so much.
Nice video Drayton. I really enjoyed this video of the Georgia Central Railway. Thankyou for documenting this day and for sharing it with us!
Nice video. Greetings from Vietnam.
I like them because they brought back hauling raw logs to the mills like when I was a kid .It was Southern Pacific then
Very Nice videos of Georgia Central
This is beautiful.
So long for old geeps just like the old days
Well, I'm all for G&W's corporate livery, they seem to keep all their subsidiaries looking extremely smart
Phenomenal Catch great camera angles....of course the info is 2nd to none...Oh later in the vid saw some SO two bay Tuscan Hoppers... Try to find those girls in H0 ...sold out before issued ....I got 1. I use them for Agg Service.
Cool, great compilation!!!
Awesome video Drayton! keep up the amazing work dude!!!
That car at 5:30 seemed to be rather intimidated by the number of engines and decided to back up
Hey that’s the train that come’s by at my back yard!
Great group of trains! Thanks for sharing!
Horn sounds more like an automobile than a train! Miss old GC colors too!
Turned out to be one long train!
Wow this so cool! I've been away from Vidalia for some years. The last time I was there, the GC seemed to be on a down slide and a long portion of the mainline appeared rough. I did enjoy seeing a group of high-nosed GE U-boats in action. So good to see that Georgia Central is prospering! I hope to visit Vidalia after the pandemic winds down. Are those U-Boats still in service and is there any word on possible passenger service on the GC mainline?
Hi there. Hope I can answer your questions.
The U23Bs were retired from 2014-2015. Only one survived, the 3965. The rest were scrapped or sent to Mexico with their dispositions unknown.
Passenger service will more than likely not occur over this trackage. The track is only rated at class 2 status (25 mph for freight, 30 for passenger) and would need tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars to reach this capacity.
@@Kayushi Thanks. A shame as there seemed to be a potential for an Atlanta to Savannah service.
@@ACLTony You’re forgetting the NS Savannah District from Macon - Savannah. That’s actually planned as of now to be an Amtrak route by 2030ish. Doubtful that’ll ever work either but…
@@Kayushi Thanks!
Excellent video!
An engineer called Casey, always a good omen
🤔 would you pick em for your baseball team?
As long as you watch your speed
Till next time buddy, can’t wait for the next time in future.
Fantastic video of 🚂 well done
Love your videos. Keep it up!
That is so great.
They have a short line that runs from Florence Oregon on the coast hauling logs to Eugene
You know before the U23Bs came along the GC had U33Bs and U30Bs from CSX boneyard in Waycross which started the Railroad up. The HOG and GC used to interchange in Vidalia when they were running container trains to Cordele.
Take on of those Vidalia onions, skin it and cut it top down into a star pattern, (blooming onion style) open it up add butter and one beef bouillon cube in the middle, close it and wrap in foil and bake or grill for 325 for 30 minutes. Thank me later!
Sounds so good!
Well documented!
The GCP has some colorful locomotives.
Very informative. Liked and subscribed.
Great video,love those Southern rock hoppers,Walthers just released them.Now I have something to weather by.
Y’all should document the rj corman owned Raleigh and Fayetteville railroad
Great video 🚄🚄👍
Lots of that damned kudzu along this route (or ANY route in central GA)
Now I know why I keep seeing this scheme on other RRs
Drayton, What is all of the spittering & sputtering noises that I hear emanating from the locomotives?
Spitter valve. Forces moisture out of the air tanks.
Thank you, makes sense....
And..as usually Drayton delivery to 200%,its amazing how mutch history u can.
Great video of the action
Awesome footage Drayton! 👍🏾
26:50 theirs my local favorite railroad
Need to come on down to the Yadkin Valley Railroad. EX NS 8520 is also there.
IT BEcool if their president gets on the boards of Class 1 railways to help grow our railway industry..., amazing how "DELAY INBLOCK " HAS pointed this out so well😊❤❤❤❤❤❤ on Shortlines can go after business " with a "Sure we can help you"..Dealing will CLASS ones are very difficult...And then they say " OH gee business is dropping 😊😊😊"
do you know when the line between vidalia and midville may be completed I have heard for years now that they were working on it
Last I heard by end of this year. They are about half way done with it now. But instead of starting where they left off last they are starting this time on the south end of the rehab.
@@georgiacentralfan awesome that will be so cool to see that line open again, I hope it increases traffic on all the lines
What's wrong with orange & black? Looks good to me, but then so does John Deere Green & yellow.
Excellent Covrage. ,🌸🌸🌸🇮🇳
I appreciate the historical background, insights & maps. Left me wondering how many hours of research and story structure you must be investing per hour of completed video. Of course, the voice-over recording & edit are a separate huge chunk of time.
Thank you. That is the greatest compliment I could ever receive! That sure means a lot.
I cant wait!!!!!!
Do you have a fluid head tripod. If so, use it to follow the trains on those occasions, as they pass by you. Think about it. Isn't that what we do when we watch a train pass by when we are not using a camcorder? We don't just stand there and stare in one direction; we follow the train with our eyes. Try it with a good fluid head tripod. Once you get good at it, you will have a nicer variety of shots to mix into your videos.
And that train is from the army
Disregard that first message but, you never show the whole train at once. Some of us would like to know how many cars are on the train!
They need to bring back the SD40S
Yeah but what about the High hood U23B's this road used to be known for?
@@kingofthepod5169 There were U30Bs too.
Those too.
SD40-3s are still here. They are on L782. Not for long though since GC is going back to an all GE roster.
@@georgiacentralfan which GE's are coming back?
So what is wrong with the paint scheme? It is better than the CSX paint scheme!
i know, i see buffalo and pittsburg trains nearly every day so i kind of like it
great footage but G&W hurt my local freight....basically no new jobs available
Biden is shutting down oil & coal trains as well!!!
'Genocide and We're Moaning' kill everything they touch as far as I'm concerned.
I have that train! Is in our backyard btw we don’t own it
Got triplets on the trains
Hay mate what horn and where was this filmed at at g
2115 has a Nathan K3HA. 2114 has an extremely healthy Leslie RS3L.
Yep, hate the orange monster.
With 4 engines, how many engineers?
Just the one usually (well, and conductor)
As a matter of interest, why are there three locomotives on the shortest American train I’ve ever seen? Most of the cargo trains I’ve seen in America have had a minimum of 20 wagons and at least four diesel locomotives.
Why don’t you ever show the the D..MN train???
cool video, very informative!
The title says Georgia Central "Railway"...
lol, Railway is a European term. It's "Railroad".
Someone got that wrong!
The railroad museum shows central railroad museum on google!
Steven, many US Railroads go by “Railway.” See BNSF, NS, SOU, NW, and others.
Actually "Railway" is used in the official title of a lot of companies; Norfolk Southern Railway, Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway
Don't know why people have to be so stupid when it comes to trains.
In what way?
Get rid of the music!
Terry, there was hardly any music in this video. -Drayton
