Busy Evening in West Palm Beach

- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- With the double track in full operation and Brightline running a full schedule of test trains while they await final FRA approval the rails are a busy place between West Palm and Ft Lauderdale. In about an hour I caught five trains -- Brightred and Brightgreen both in each direction and FEC's hotshot train 101.
Awesome! It's so cool to see the trains at speed
Very cool! Just something about watching a passenger train at night. The clouds lit by the city lights made for a nice backdrop. 👍
It is nice to see the container traffic off the roads.
Great shots, thanks for posting.
Awesome video!
Nice video!
Awesome! Is it me, or was that BrightPink rather than Red? Also, at 1:57, that isn't BrightGreen.
Finally the brightline is doing 79mph! I cant wait to see how it compares to 120mph and the JR line shinkansen in Teksas
*Texas
the JR line is supposed to be 205 mph.
nugget man sorry I was tired when i sent that. Thanks.
nugget man yes On my phone I get an average of 165mph and 234 top speed between shizuoka and nagoya.
no prob
Brightline Brightgreen Your Awesome To
That’s a nice speed, keep faster then the Acela Express
The Brightline is a train that runs from Miami Central Station to Orlando International Airport And When im a grown up i want to drive it
are there any areas where brightline goes through its maximum speed or it's just the hypothetical speed of the charger?
In the areas where they are currently operating, they are restricted to 79mph. In areas in the future they will get up to 125mph.
hate to say it but just a matter of time until some bozo gets hit at a crossing and train goes flying off tracks. too many crossings. then u will hear I told u so
David Anderson we seem to manage okay in europe. Perhaps if US federal rail standards mandated fences and crossings that consist of little more than a couple of planks of wood with fairy lights on, crossing deaths might be reduced.
In the UK, our last rail accident passenger death was 11 years ago, our little 2 and 3 car multiple units operate up to 100mph and our mainlines 125mph.
US railways can at best be compared with Indian Railways in terms of safety (although even they seem to have better luck keeping their trains from falling off the track).
Already killed and hit a bunch of people every day i here the horn be smashed and people crossing the tracks.
Sweet he's not playing
train gating faster than they use to
it took all year but BOI
why do they have do sound the horn so loud wtf
It's a Federal Regulation that the horn be used.
thanks :)

It's a normal thing here in the United States. I assume they do that because of the many accidents we have here.
óScar Averio It's to warn drivers who all to common in the US go around the railroad crossing barriers when active.
Considering the fact 2 people already died from getting hit by Brightline in 6 days you would think people would here the horn
Yuck. I’ll take an A-B-A set of F’s over that any day. Nice video though
Wurlitzer 153
Shame Americans cant build much anymore. Instead we rely on these european, canadian and japanese companies
This is American built by Seimens in California.
Honestware
Seimens as a company is not american. Thats where it should all start, from the top.
