Starting the day on the High Iron on the Local train with a auto-rack train rolling past

Starting the day on the High Iron on the Local train with a auto-rack train rolling past. Are the diamonds due for repair? as trains NS 116 and NS 117 are given slow orders to cross over diamonds in Marion, Ohio

Love the sound of those flanged wheels on the diamonds, nice shot of Conductor firing up the SD40-2!🛤🚂

[@therailroadtiespiker]

I love catching a start up something you don’t get to see very often.

On nice days it seems cool but cannot help wondering how nasty it is on cold rainy days or freezing nights with watering eyes…

[@therailroadtiespiker]

@@Archerman.4514 the worst nights is when it’s about 40 degrees and raining ugh I don’t miss those kind of night. Lol

[@cdavid8139]

@@therailroadtiespiker yeah. not many railfan shots of those nights. Used to switch a cement plant that meant a 3-4 mile shove at night. As you wrote when it's in the 30s or 40s and raining it's miserable. well shot video dude

[@therailroadtiespiker]

@@cdavid8139 just in the right spot at the right time. Lol I did just get a drone this past spring so I’ll be able to catch some better action

Good video Spike 👍👍

[@therailroadtiespiker]

Thank you so much for watching

[@haroldreardon1407]

I will add my A+ for the NS train at the diamonds. Steady camera, no zooming in and out, close enough to see things but not up against the bearing caps.

[@therailroadtiespiker]

Thank you…. I try to get the right angle and the best of lighting from the sun and all four of our cameras are on tripods.

[@miken8rbiradio220]

Hey there tie looks like I did it again. I heard my big mouth in the back ground on the video.😮

[@therailroadtiespiker]

Yes you did. 😂 I got a new editing program so I re-edited some of my older videos.

[@miken8rbiradio220]

@therailroadtiespiker Next time we video together bring a roll of duct tape With you ha ha

[@ronaldellis-eh8dc]

Very"Good"

[@therailroadtiespiker]

Thank you Ron for watching

[@williamlee1429]

That conductor doesn’t have a job. I know this because if you have a job you go to work every day. That is not work. That’s some kind of paradise, but it’s not work.

[@cdavid8139]

Sure seemed like a 'job' to me back in the days when I did this.
