- While out on my walk today, I caught this guy coming up the B&O connector track on his way to deliver a tank car to Spray Products. Spray Products is the south most customer on the former B&O line here in Medina. The tracks south of Spray Products have been removed and are now a bike path.
Nice catch Matt. Shoestring is with you in spirit.
Have a good weekend too 🙂
Matt. Thanks I'll be watching more now
Wow he sure woke up that quiet little spot in there! It’s amazing how they can still get the cars where they need to be!
Love the sound of those engines..Thanks for sharing.
That was perfect timing, great little video, enjoy your weekend as well
Nice to see something a little different Matt. Thanks hope your weekend is great !!
Nice catch Matt, cute little spot, cute little train! Thank you. Hope you doing ok. ❤🥰
That angle certainly shows how sharp the curve is even with a smaller size freight car. That is such a classic old railroad structure and this side you can see where the doors were for the small Freight cars of the time when this was used also as a freight house. A nice short to get the afternoon going
Right place, right time! BTW, I went to Ohio Northern, a few hours west of you in Ada. The two track former PRR main was still intact during my years there (1982-85). One track was removed after I left. Amtrak's Broadway Limited ran through Ada. Rode it from Lima to Lancaster Pa and return in Oct 1982.
Yo Matt thanks for the videos!! Ya man. Been thinking of u and shoe a lot Sucks. Well, Maybe see ya in Britt were coming down from Saint Cloud Minnesota. Just up the trail from Willmar one of mark’s favorite hops
Nice job on Shoestrings memorial. I wish I knew him like you did. There will never be another Hobo Shoestring!
Okay Matt. I am following up on the idea of making your old CB “Matrix” moniker into your hobo moniker. Get the paint pens. You gotta make it happen; I want to see it on film.
They'll have there work cut out on that one ,nice being able to catch those cool train lumbering around
Nice Catch
You're lucky day great catch
My Lionel stuff is bout to be set up ! Would love to have ya visit and also see my arcade of 50 games.. plus a classic arcade nearby
WOW you can hear that squeaking sound from making that turn like Hobo Shoestring told us about. ❤😊 Thank you Brother ❤😊
@melindaroth5796, the term Shoestring used was shelling
@@lorettashepherd. What is shelling ? I sure don't mean any disrespect to Mark. Please let me know.
@@melindaroth5796 A flat spot, or wheel flat, also called spalling or shelling, is a fault in railroad wheel shape.
I know you meant no disrespect. You made a nice comment and I thought that I would help out by telling you the term that Shoestring used
@@lorettashepherd. OH cool Thank you so much Sister 😊❤️
Railhead shelling is where the rail has completely worn through leaving a an actual hole in both directions of the top of the rail. Not very technical cuz I’m no expert but I thing that’s what shoestring said. It’s a rail defect. Time to replace the rail since it’s serious.
That looked like a decent sized gradient it had to climb.
It does! It's quite steep & a very sharp curve.
love it
Nice video.
How ya doin Matt? Is that the plastics plant you showed Shoestring? Nice video.
That's Root Candle...I took Shoestring around that area & we walked it all.
👍🤠
Matt help them paint that tanker. When it is dry tag it with Hobo Shoestring in Giant Letters! Paul in Ohio
Graffiti is illegal
Nice footage of CSX Conductor and extra crewman riding the shove on tank car!🛤🚂👍
Wheeling & Lake Erie not CSX
Yeah I accidentally typed CSX, thanks meant to type W&LE.
@@ChainsawNW1218 glad to help
Thanks RR! I always love these random catches when walking around town. They are completely unscripted & give a glimpse of small town American Railroading in 2024.
