Broken Loco Rescued in La Plata, MO
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2018
- 6868 makes a stop at the La Plata station, helped by 4921. Judging by the hose, a coolant issue. The lash-up reverses back east after the crew is finished. Sped up for your viewing pleasure. Happened on June 8, 2018.

The cool part is how they stopped in front of the camera
Love the compressor action just as they come to a stop...
Quick and accurate treatment, great teamwork,
and the high level of professionalism of each person supports the safe and stable transportation of railways.
Long pit stop. "Give me 4 fresh Goodyears and a can of Sunoco race fuel, and make a right side wedge adjustment."
You forgot to have them remove the tear off. 🤣
Brilliant vid. Many thanks. Gotta admire the speed of those workers.
I watched this on the re-wind about 1 hour after ... Virtual Railfan may want to go back and add a few seconds of video where they try to restart 6868 and you can see the loco side panels "bulge out/in" trying to start 6868. Quite amazing the "bulging in/out" ...... very dramatic ....
Wow, such an awesome video, trains are like my favorite thing to look at...
6868 also has an awesome K5LLA! Not everyday you see this exchange
Out of sight! Love all those flippy-floppy access doors ... wish my SUV had those ...
Great Video, I watch these live videos all the time.
thanks for posting
Saw this live!!
Saw that guy show up with that hose two hours before the engine arrived. Nobody could figure out what he was doing there or who he worked for. Hose was gone the next morning.
At 5:30 in the morning, I imagine there were not a lot of viewers on the webcam. But I bet those who were watching had a lively chat for that hour.
Full service, but they forgot the windshield. Maybe next time.
well i diddnt see anyone underneath changing the oil
👍😄😄😀
6868 all fixed ..i liked that thank you
Wow amazing video, BNSF is a great RR
Well edited!
Coolant... Way back in the day, been there and I've done that. R I P MILW.
Nicely done! Rox
R. knudson I
Awesome, thanks!
Great shot Friend
Wow never saw them needing to refill the water tank for the cooling system
I hate filling the water it takes for ever if it's really low haha. This motor must have been really low because it took them a while to fill it!
Love the music!
I saw this live, any news on that derailment the other day?
Awesome vid
Nice video bro..
intersting and very cool.
Nice video..👍
the unit has an active issue for cooling performance degraded and low water pressure issues. Unit required water but never restarted according to the log
i thought most engines your suppost to run the engine when hot while adding water to get the water in the system? or am i wrong? i know on cars or trucks you are suppost too
The unit had already shutdown due to low water and could not be restarted or attempt a restart until water was added.
planca3430 definately not supposed to add cold water to a hot engine in anything.... could damage it, and most cooling systems are pressurized when hot.
Likely a water pump. Crew reports unit has low water pressure fault to Ft Worth and then the dispatchers automatically want responders to come out and throw a garden hose in it. If an engine is low on water or throwing faults for low water pressure there is usually a much larger problem.
Awesome
LOL nice view! 👍
Love the video but I think you should get a camera somewhere on UP's Overland Route.
It looks like it was low on cooling water.
Wow, I seen BNSF 6868 before
Not sure it ever got rescued. Scratching head and talking on phone is usually bad sign.
Petticoat junction water tank up a little yonder! Watch the curves 😏
A little above their pay grade?
Exactly 1 year ago today.
IT IS TRANSFORMING !!!!! **transforming sonds activate** 0:26
Nice 👍👍
@Virtual Railfan . . . Really good, but possible to post a "real-time" version where we can turn up our volume and listen to the 'tech-talk' . . . what they are saying, sans music?
couldn't hear them live either due to engine noise.
Aaaah! Okay, thank you! darn.
Que coisa mais linda esse trem. Amei de paixão! Parabéns muito lindo! 🌹🍀😘💓💕
Sonia Mendes os trens norte americanos são lindos né
Same to you.
Alexsandro Ribeiro São magníficos e me impressionam pela quantidade de vagões. 🌹🍀😘💓💕
Cool
What happened to the engines
Cool!
Engineer: Pull your pants up!!!!!!
Haha it just shuts down at the crossing I've never seen that before😂
Nice to BNSF Counselor and sides all through the picnic eh conductor
What are they,,, not doing to this engine
I guess this engine broke down somewhere east of La Plata!
Oh my what wrong with it come on Good lord what happened oh my god Not again That's not good oh no What happened
Heritage 3 and heritage 2
It’s a choo choo train!! 😃
Stand behind the yellow line.....lol
Did you check the oil?
Satisfying
Whats wrong with it?
Any one know who the music is by?
Sorry, just saw this post now....Track is called “False Love”, by Jonathan MT
On your virtual railfan weekdays at 12:00 only on Sprout
And what do you know it’s a GEVO
Why can't a loco just work?
The funny thing is, is how much $ they made by just standing around!
Ready to retire guy @1:00...
I don’t think the engine broke down..if they already had the water hose then.. maybe it was a planned water stop.
They don't "plan" water stops for diesel locomotives. It's reactionary at best if you see this outside of a yard or locomotive shop.
Ranout of steam
Best locomotive Died
Oh No no way What Happening
Đầu máy BNSF của tàu số 6868 đang bị sửa
SO ,what did they fix with the extension cord.
Or did they have to charge up the battery , SHOULD HAVE USED THE PINK BUNNY.
Not an extension cord, that's a hose. Same question, though... Wonder what they're topping up?
Oh my gosh freaking really now the bnsf es44c4 battery drained down now is broken
I really confused about it
Kinda of Sad to See that 6868 dead battery 4921 dead battery too
To work on the engine😄😄😀
They must get paid buy the hour. How many? Man
Carl Loar THERE WERE 2 ENGINE CREWMEN !
THE GUY WITH THE HARDHAT IS A PORTABLE MECHANIC CALLED THE FIRST RESPONDER! HE IS IN A SERVICE TRUCK RUNNING AROUND THE AREA AND CHECKS THINGS OUT WHEN THERE IS A MECHANICAL PROBLEM WITH LOCOMOTIVES OR CARS!! IF IT IS SOMETHING HE CANT FIX, THEN HE REPORTS THE PROBLEM TO THE SHOPS!
THE CLOSEST BEING ARGENTINE SHOPS IN KANSAS CITY!
I was joking it remained me of a public works program. One work everyone ales standing. Think u for the info.🇺🇸👍
*rapid responder. 3 crewmen; engineer, conductor and engineer student

Music is pointless and annoying so mute button is handy but necessitates the viewer checking and rechecking for dialog.
They work hard for the money.....
Bnsf 6868 is dying they locomotive Died died
No blue flag

Spent more time bullshitting than it took to fix it
Why is this in my recommended trains are lame
