I've built-up a Train of Athearn B/Box ACF 'Grace' models, because I like the livery, so now I am ok to run them on my Layout.

    Hey virtual railfan!, I was thinking, sometime in the future. Could you build a railcam in Huron,Ohio. It is near the Sandusky sub. A lot of trains go by there!. NS, CN, And UP, AND BNSF Go through there. It’s mostly NS and BNSF and up. I would love to see a railcam for there!

Haven't really seen Chargers go to Beech Grove for anything and I assume that's because they're still need to get a Charger up there to do trainings on. In fact this may be why 300 has never been repair yet, or the front is just beyond repair? But most of it seems to be damage to the nose. Don't know.

      ⁠@@3RTracing I’m an Amtrak employee and you are very incorrect. If it were retired due to damage it wouldn’t not be moving on its own wheels; It would either be on a flat car, a truck, or it would have been cut up in LA.
      The stated plan, whether or not this timeline is realistic, is to have both 300 and 302 repaired and in service by the end of October 2024. Both units will be repaired by a contractor in the Chicago area who has been repairing wrecked state units for the past few years.

    Glad to see 300 being at least moved- there were some reports it was a total loss.
    I was aboard the Coast Starlight that day. For anyone unaware, several cars derailed, possibly all- I didn’t get a chance to see the last couple of sleepers. I was in the first coach behind the baggage car. Not a fun experience.
    My impression was the truck driver must have pulled out in front of us, as there was no frantic horn blowing nor noticeable brake application. If we did go into emergency, it couldn’t have been more than a couple of seconds before we hit. The truck driver survived, only he and one other person on the train had to be admitted to a hospital. I broke a fingernail.

People are working on new technology that would essentially construct them in place, using a monster 3-D printer, as well as other far-out technologies. Boggles the mind...
