    Thanks VRF, especially for the CSS Coil Car at Kearney. I was unaware that the CSS had C/Cs with an oblong profile. I enjoyed seeing the Steamer at Chattanooga and I liked the Country music - easy listening.

    7561 has a lovely voice, and of course so does the steam engine in Tennessee. And that little guy in Skykomish was so excited--it made my heart happy to see him! The ending was beautiful too--another great one!

      Yeah I feel sorry for the 2 cars parked in the street. Hopefully they have a $0 deductible if they got any damage unless they can get the RR to pay but idk if you can file a claim for that with the RR.

    On the Viking riverboat- that propeller system,that can turn on a dime,was used on train ferries in Europe,from the 1960's on! Extremely useful in tight harbors,and other very hard turning areas! Just a point of historical interest! Thank you 😇 😊! Real nice music,and excellent editing! Thank you 😇 😊!

    How do those refrigerator cars get their names. Interesting to see all of the different names they’re given. Love a train horn but sorry you just can’t beat a good old steam whistle. I’m in Wv and I love hearing the old steam whistles on the Shay’s at Cass Scenic Railroad echoing off of the mountains.

    The 'Crescent' was a real treat. It looks as inviting as the 'Southern Crescent' which the Southern Railway ran from New York to New Orleans via assists from PRR and N&W. I rode in the 'Catawba River' car on one trip. Wonderful memories!

    0:08 the YN2 geep from last time returning long-hood-forward. I can actually see the entire 15-car train this time
    1:30 switch sections in gondolas and specialized flatcars
    2:03 nS 8099 leading
    2:17 crossing between stopped freight cars. How did he even get up there because the tracks are elevated here
    2:37 NS geep with MOW train
    3:46 CSX 1899 leading
    4:23 P42 92 and ALC42 301 "Blackout" on a silver service
    5:00 Conrail 86-foot boxcar without any other 86-footers
    5:16 an old passenger car on the rear of the same freight train! The paint looks similar to N De M's although it is most likely CSX paint that's really faded
    5:44 UP 1989 along with a graffitied unit, Cedar Rapids & Iowa City hopper, and a new South Shore Line coil car
    6:30 private cars on the rear of this Amtrak, the Seaboard and L&N cars from a few grab bags ago. A CN and NS triple-header passes this train
    10:53 Loram Grinder working at night
    12:39 combined BNSF inspection trains!
    13:00 WOW! an Amtrak Califronia F40 cabbage on a surfliner! 90125 was in Phase V until 2014 when it was transferred to California and painted similar to the 1980s Caltrain F40s. The future of these is limited as Venture cab cars are entering service
    14:14 solo leader and two barrier hoppers on the front of this oil train
    14:37 11-unit lash-up of mostly NS ex-CEFX AC44CWs, one is CMQ livery
    15:55 Southern 4501, followed by a hi-rail truck
    18:08 ending with river cruise ship Viking Mississippi leaving dock at Burlington, turning around, and going under the lift bridge
