- No, it's not a typo, although the city of Texarkana is also located in this area. The States of Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana form the southeastern triangle of the Union Pacific Network. Weather-wise, it is also the southeastern edge of Tornado Alley (and southwestern corner of Dixie Alley), which one is easily made aware of during a visit in the month of March. In this video, we visit four UP subdivisions in these three states: the Monroe, Reisor, Little Rock, and Pine Bluff Subs and watch various trains with remarkable color mixes. The indisputable favorite of the author is a westbound manifest with Ferromex doubleheader. Enjoy!
Note: This video has been recorded and produced in 4k Ultra-HD resolution.

Another Excellent adventure. Love your videos. Your the BEST! Keep them coming.😎😎😎
Thank you very much. I'm glad you like the videos. Keep watching, there's more to come :)
I really enjoy your videos,btw its sad how someone was more than likely hit and killed by a train at that crossing.
Thanks! Unfortunately, it still happens again and again...
I agree with author about his favourite. Excellent video.
Lol, FXE catches are simply special. In the Southeast we rarely get to see Ferromex engines. I think their paint scheme really stands out. Many thanks!
@@mbmars01 In the north east they are rare also. I caught one a year ago. My only time that I have seen one.
I can imagine. I was totally surprised - almost shocked actually - to catch one on a BNSF train last year in Montana close to the Canadian border.
Laredo [As I went walkin' the streets of Laredo....' to Detroit? That's a long haul. Must be coming up out of Mexico because there's no port, much less access to the Gulf, in Laredo, Tx. Great video, and yeah, those wall clouds can sometimes become extremely and capriciously volatile. You do good work!
Right, Laredo, TX is the major hub for Mexico traffic. Good you like the video. Thanks!
Terrific catches/power/races/meets! The midwest including tornado alley have been getting hit hard with bad weather this spring.
Yea, there were really some sweet catches. Absolutely - and it was just the beginning of tornado season.
23:35 it always seems like on large equipment, windshield wipers are an afterthought. I hope that for their jerky movement, they are at least the last equipment to ever break on those locomotives.
Outstanding as always....Such a wide choice of colors !!!!!
Thank you! Ikr, I was surprised, too.
Nice. Great mix of freight cars and motor power. And as always, super quality video. Thanks for sharing. 🚂
Thanks! I was also surprised to see this much diverse power. I wasn't too much excited about the NS Dash-9s, because I see them in the Atlanta area all the time, but it was okay. You're welcome!
WOW, you sure railfan everywhere!! Wish i could find more time to.Those clouds looked menacing!
Well, these trips are actually short (less than a week), but action-packed. I don't have much time for this hobby either. The cloud was scary and there were indeed several tornado reports on this day. Developing extreme weather is interesting to watch, but not while being out railfanning lol.
if i remember, there were horrible storms then
Fantastic video
dear Friend love it. Really enjoyed. Thumbs up.
Wishing you good health and beautiful Time.
God bless you.
Many thanks! Great you enjoyed this video. Have a great weekend!
Fcc case q
Nice Video Friend and the Bad K5HL of Ferromex 4696
Thank you!
You covered a lot of territory for this video. Very cool!
No only for this video lol. Thanks.
Great catches! Especially with the Ferromex units!
Thanks! The Ferromexes were a nice surprise and a highlight of this trip.
As always a great video.🇬🇧
Thank you!
Thanks for another outstanding video...
Cool, thanks!
Nice catch and nice vid work!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Great video, great catches.
Cool, thanks.
The Finn views machine of Ferromex In USA Keep it up Friend Best regards
It's always nice to catch FXE here in the US. Greetings back :)
Awesome as always
Cool, many thanks!
Great video. Cool shots. Awesome catches. Did you know they where all coming.
Thanks! I only knew the train with the FXEs was coming west on that day.
Another great video! I can’t say it enough:)
Thanks so much! I'm happy you enjoyed watching it!
Nice video again! Thumb up!
Thanks!
Keep 'em coming!
Yep.
I hope you have plans on doing the Mineola, Pine Bluff (Bottom end from Texarkana to Big Sandy, and the Corsicana Subs. That's where I was an engineer for UP
Unfortunately, I only briefly visited the area, but I might consider returning one day. Cool you worked on this line!
@@mbmars01 Yeah I do miss it. I'm glad to see some parts of it going to Marshall and Shreveport because that's where I started as a conductor before getting promoted. If you do make a trip back down, I'd be more than happy to help out with any information I have (or can remember lol)
Cool, thanks!
Mbmars u back at it keep making videos
There has never been a break. If UA-cam is slow suggesting videos of this channel, check out my channel's main page on UA-cam and get notifications about new videos. I also announce new videos on my social media pages on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. Just search for "mbmars01" and you'll never miss a video.
I use to live in pine bluff
Very cool!
Thanks mbmars for this video. There are many different trains to watch on the video plenty to look at. I was interested in one of the trains which had white tank cars do you know what was in them.
Ferromex and Kansas City Southern have some of the best colors on their engines. Some of the up and down track reminded of the roller coaster back your way in Georgia. I really enjoyed this on my new iPad. I appreciate your videos
Great you have a good device to watching the videos. There'll be more soon.
I never thought mexican railroad ferromex could travel all the way to Arkansas !
I have even seen one near the Canadian border in Montana. They can be everywhere, but are more frequent in the south, of course.
Excelente video.
Thanks!
What kind of horn on SD70-AH 8843,I love it.
Roberta Williamson Its called a Nathan k5lla
Great video bro.
Thanks!
Great video as always. The next time you make a trip to Texas, check out Houston's Fifth ward, so many trains, it will make your head spin, literally. There's a yard in Houston for UP, in addition you have BNSF, KCS, that come through, its a massive interlocking, a train between 15-30 minutes where I railfanned at, this was back in 2014 though. I also have a question, how would you go about getting the ID's for Union Pacific Trains, its a question I always wanted to know from a fellow railfan, feel free to message me privately if need be.
Dallas would have been a busy alternative and closer to where I was in Texas. However, I don't like railfanning in cities, because one is basically nailed to one spot and cannot chase. The train IDs are a combination of information I got by friends familiar with UP and by researching the internet. I think they are all correct, but I would not bet on all of them.
Well done brother and I loved this channel because the reason why the Union Pacific is coming passed is because the Union Pacific was doing a best job with these freight trains my friend but even sometimes Pacific National American freight trains we had less containers on my way to the station but especially I don't know why we had less containers God bless you and God bless your family as well
Watching UP trains go by is fun, because this railroad is really doing well most of the time. I wish I lived closer to an active UP line. Thanks, I wish you also all the best.
@@mbmars01 definitely 100% agreed with you today thank you so much and God bless you and God bless your family as well
Can you add the power units birth date to info? I have no clue on how old units are and how long they can last. Thanks for sharing your passion.
I sometimes do add information about the age of a locomotive, but only if it's really old. Otherwise it's rather simple to guess the age: General Electric's Dash-7 dates back to the 1970s, Dash-8 to the 1980s, Dash-9 and AC4400CW to the 1990s. Then they introduced the Evolution Series in the early 2000s, ES40DC/ES44DC and ES44AC, the latter still being in production (as a Tier 4 credit unit). In 2015, the Tier 4 compliant locomotive ET44AC was introduced. EMD's history is more diverse because of the many design problems they had, which caused them to fall behind GE concerning reliability. As of now, the oldest (and among the most reliable) engines on the roads are the SD40-2s, which were first produced in the early 1970s (until the end of the 1980s, but some have been rebuilt into SD40-3s recently). The more successful models thereafter were the SD70Ms (1990s) and the more modern AC traction variants SD70MAC (1990s) and SD70ACe (2000s and 2010s). The most modern Tier 4 compliant engine is the SD70ACe-T4 which became available only very recently.
Would it kill you to move away from the crossing bells?
If I move in the wrong direction it probably would 🤔
19:27 to 19:34. I know that all train horns aren't the same and are all different but the horn on this train sounds like it's lost one it's notes or chimes. (If anyone knows I would greatly accept an answer/explanation.)
What’s the name of the song that is in the beginning of ur vids
It's called Wishing Well and it's from the UA-cam Audio Library.
Know how you feel about "Rotating Wall Clouds", I am a registered Storm Spotter.
Do the rail Roads ever do anything about those "Flat Spotted wheels"? Seems like that takes more power to overcome.
Cool, one day I want to go and chase some nice clouds. I don't think they do anything special regarding a flat spot. Once regular maintenance of a railcar is due, it gets fixed.
Red letters on yellow background are very hard to read for us oldtimers.
Sorry... I always suggest to watch the videos on large TV screens or computer displays. The 4k quality looks best then anyway.
@@mbmars01 We do watch your videos on a larger screen tv. On previous videos, you used black lettering, that I can read.
Gotcha. It will be better readable again in future videos.
Que no la UP 7041 no ez una AC6000CW
It's a rebuilt AC60.
OSVVP on the first one
So if you die here, is it Texakanicide?
Lol, maybe
That place can get you in sticky situations :|
It was exciting lol.
Do you make money on UA-cam?
Not enough to cover the expenses... Videography is a hobby, but not my job.
