Good morning Jaw Tooth 😍. Wish I could be able to go across the Country. But You are my legs and eyes... Thank you for allowing me to see through your eyes 👀. Have a great week
I grew up in Huntington. Lived there from 1958 until 1966. It was a great time to be a kid there. My dad was an officer with the C&O, and was later transferred to Baltimore in '66 with the C&O/B&O merger. I still live in MD, but still occasionally visit Huntington. Thanks for sharing this, JT.
Thank you for these images of these beautiful steam engines! It's a whole part of the history of the American railroad that is offered to our eyes. I love it!
Another superb video - thank you! 🙂 Got married in Huntingdon VW - nice town as I was later able to get a divorce there too - and become a happy man once again! 😅
Nice catch of the CSX coal train at Huntington, West Virginia, Jaw Tooth! The steam locomotives that you found on display in Huntington, West Virginia were interesting to see. It seems like the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad wasted money on purchasing those duplex steam engines in 1959. When that train came by in Kenova, West Virginia, I was thinking that it would be a long train with a DPU, but it turned out to be a shorter train. Thank you for uploading this video for us to enjoy.
Great to see steam engines as they are just cool to look at and figure out what parts is for what purpose, etc. You caught a one-engine wonder - it's a wonder that one engine could pull all those cars!
Great way to start off for a new week JT ! A wide variety of excellent shots Amtrak Station with 10 tracks, 2 Steam Locomotives one being a C&O one of my favorites lines, then on the CSX freight was a old SOO car that had no graffiti markings on it this is another very rare find ! Thanks for another great 👍 morning show today JT very good as always I can’t wait for tomorrow show until then tracks ahead to one and all ! 😎🤩🤓👍👨✈️
River towns with their red brick warehouses are great for history and one can tell Huntington had plenty of it. Alas regular Freight Service has tapered off and many tracks were removed but that old school coal train kicking up the breeze with bottom dump non rotary hoppers was great. Couldn't ask for a better General Freight with all the old covered hoppers but that last car is giving a shout out to Jason the Yooper who is probably watching the snow pile up today in Iron Mountain as the last car seems to have runaway from the north Woods. In the last month these Wisconsin Central Mega Log Maulers (and you have to hear Jason belt it out) have been spotted offline in Southern Illinois and on Virtual Rail taking the curve at Deshler Ohio and now sneaking through West Virginia. In their WC days there were a lot more paper mills active in Wisconsin and Michigan and they stayed on home rails. Lately some of these cars have been loading on the shortline Escanaba & Lake Superior so maybe the car wanted to go someplace warm. The unpredictable is what makes being Trackside or watching JT videos fun
What a cute low drivered little Mike! Looks like it got upgraded somewhere along the line with Baker valve gear. If you like the 1308 you can ride behind it's sister at the Western Maryland scenic. Excellent video!
What is the original line of 1308 I don’t think that the WM scenic Rwy has any original WM equipment at least they didn’t when I was back there they just painted the color to match the logos of the WM .
👍🏻🚂🚂🐕🐈 I think #10 and # 1308 should be restored love steamers ! Great videos especially that the holidays are here and you know the holidays are always better with the steam engines! Great video of Chessie playing with that ball ! Made me laugh ! 🤪
That first one was a "Roscoe P." Coal Train smokin' and stokin' trying to catch up with them Duke Boys! LOL , Great to see those steam locomotives. Wished you had checked out that railcar that was there too. Other trains seemed to be going slow.
Nice catch of a CSX coal train Huntington, WVa. Love seeing pieces of RR history, those two beautiful steam locomotives, two important pieces. We had steam before diesel. Thanks JT.👍🏼
The 1309 is a sister locomotive to 1308 and is now operating on the Western Maryland out of Cumberland, MD - it has only been operating since about Jan 1, 2022 and it took millions of dollars plus several years to get it running again.
Great catches, like the visitor center displays. When I was down there at that museum and catching trains last year. I found the visitors center loco to late. It was dark and couldn't get good footage of it and I haven't made it back down there.. thanks for showing it. Looks way better in the day light 🤣
JT, If you like coal trains come to Nebraska and you'll be surprised on how much coal BNSF & UP are delivering and how fast they are going. But wait there's more, on UP the speed limit on the line is 60 mph.
I was born in 1946 postwar Germany. We lived in a tiny village. The tracks were close enough to walk to. We kids used to go and watch the trains. The Allies took out most of the tracks and blew up the engines, so the ones I remember most are those old steam engines they took out of retirement. Didn’t take many years though to get everything back to normal with the help of the same people who blew everything up in the first place. My mom and I came to America in 1958. She passed recently, July 29, at 96.
@Fa17h PatriQt Thank You!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️ The City I was born in is Schweinfurt. It was a HUGE military town. The Army made that city thrive after the war. It was pretty much destroyed. There were 3 large ball bearing factories which were leveled in 1943-44. They produced the planes of the Luftwaffe. The military has pulled out now. They all went to Poland and elsewhere. Germany took back all the bases there and has either torn everything down or refurbished them all for immigrants.
That 2-8-2 mikado has been at Heritage Station in downtown Huntington for decades. At one time the engine and passenger car were connected across the entire parking lot. Actually in the distant past that entire area between the floodwall and the alley was a large freight yard and the old freight station now holds shoppes and stores. Isn’t 1308 a beauty, I’ve taken each grandson to see her.
@@JawTooth Used to catch the New River excursions from there back in the 80’s with my parents. Also, been through there on Amtrak a few times on the way to DC
One of your best videos! Great shot of the SOO Line car. I’ve only seen 10 tracks across in some of the yards in New York City, Boston, Connecticut. Impressive, too bad there weren’t more trains - hope you can do another visit. I can see Doc Brown loading up the furnace in that steam engine 😉 Fun fact: Soupy Sales lived in and attended high school in Huntington, WV in the 1940’s. Love the Peace Symbol painting.
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO AND THE AWESOME NICE STEAM TRAINS . VERY GOOD INDEED 👍 👏 👌 I THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORT AND TIME JT JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA NORFOLK SOUTHERN RULES MY RAILS 👍
You could find out what the two steam engines cost to refurb on the UP line, Btw both are in operation. I know that the 844 gave a modern diesel a shove up a steep hill without any problems and the folks in Omaha were well aware of it.
There’s a really cool spot on the end of 19th Street in Parkersburg, WV that leads to a CSX yard. Tons of action down in there. I hope you check it out someday!
That was a great video. Thanks for the tour of the steamers, its fascinating to see them especially 1308. Here in the UK some of our last steam engines only had a service life of 5 years. It's almost criminal...
Seeing the steam locos and hearing you mention "Flying Scotsman" reminded me that the LNER loco of that name reaches its 100th birthday next year and is going to be very busy moving between various heritage railways in the UK during the year to celebrate the centenary.
Nice 👌 👍 trains today sad only 7 years see that train would be nice 2 see in running again nice I remember I was at a Amtrak station 🚉 I was waiting for the Amtrak and a tanker train went by it was in full tern ca
You should have visited the park there, where the #1308 is on display! That's the only other C&O H6 2-6-6-2 besides the 1309, that's now running on the WM Scenic RR. Joe Bliss, Plymouth, MI.
FYI...The steam loco is on display downtown on a section of the old original B&O Ohio River LIne that ran to Kenova pre C&O,B&O Merger in early 60's...after merger, a new cut-off from the B&O to the C&O was built at Guyandotte and B&O to Kenova eliminated.
GREAT CONTENT JT... YOU NEED TO GET UP HERE TO MICHIGAN TO THE BUMP YARD IN GRAND RAPIDS... ITS AMAZING... APPROX 5.5 HOURS from you.. Be a great Trip one day...
109 cars on the first train. I'm guessing it was going about 45, or 50 max. I enjoyed seeing those steam locomotives too. 57 or 58 cars on the second train, depending on whether that thing at the end was one car or two.
Good morning Jaw Tooth 😍. Wish I could be able to go across the Country. But You are my legs and eyes... Thank you for allowing me to see through your eyes 👀. Have a great week
Those coal trains keep the lights for you at night.....Thank you for the Birthday wish.
Happy birthday! I hope you have a great week!
Happy Birthday 🤓🥸

This autumn is full of long trains...so good!!!
🇱🇷🚂💕💞♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I don't think I've seen so many un-tagged coal hoppers in one train before. lol
That’s what I was thinking.
Glad you have a train buddy, 1960gambit. You shouldn't be all by yourself these days!
The trains runs in front of a station in west Virginia...a new adventure of railfanning...

Wow, Meg-A-Log Hauler from Upper Peninsula, Michigan from where Jason Asselin films the ELS trains. Imagine that railcar in West Virginia, WOW!!!!!!
super great video bro
Thank you 👍
Great video JT. That 1st train was bookin'. He had somewhere to be. Wow thanks for showing us those old steamies, what a couple of beauty old girls.
Big train station and cool old steam locomotive!!!! Amazement!!!

Very true!
Very nice video my friend!✌️✌️👏👏
Great video Jawtooth! Very cool location and thing's there! Love the bridge and trestle at the 2nd location! Thanks for sharing!
Locomotives look more "old school" when they drive long hood forward 😊
👍👍👍 as always. Thanks for another great video.
Great rail fan video jaw tooth great location thanks
Thank you very much!
Man, I could feel the breeze of that train from here!

Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Jaw Tooth you sure get around !!!
I see one of Jason Asselin's MEGA LOG HAULERS at the end of the last train.
Awesome video, from the team of JawTooth and 1960Gambit!!!
Much appreciated!

I will check it out. I wanted to see it in February but I was in Florida and got back a day too late.
What is the original line of 1308 I don’t think that the WM scenic Rwy has any original WM equipment at least they didn’t when I was back there they just painted the color to match the logos of the WM .
You are correct, 1308 was one of the last Baldwins built for C&O. 1309 was the last Baldwin steamer.
What an interesting video, those old steam engines were cool. Nice live action.
Thank you very much!
Nice shot fof the ex-Soo Line, now PMRX. Thanks!
Nice catches jaw tooth! And good morning everyone!

Thank you very much!
i love it when you say "what is the hurry??". LOL.
Nice video of steam engine. I could just imagine the whistle as it barreled down the tracks.
Yes, true
Amazing videos Jaw Tooth keep up the good work
Thanks! Will do!
#24? Great video as always. That spot looks awesome to film at. Wide open. That coal train was booookin son!
You got it

Is the 1308 an original WM locomotive ?
That second steamer is huge!
Thanks Jt most enjoyable. Chris from England
Glad you enjoyed it
Were they empties (MT's). Only 2 loco's which is unusual for CSX.
People really don't associate the wind created by a moving train but the trees around Jaw Tooth shows the strong wind created by a passing train.
I noticed that too
Just hauling coal today.!!
Great video JT! Nice seeing the old steam engines..end of an era.👍👍
Thanks 👍
10 tracks; WOW!!! Can only imagine how many trains one could see in one day.
It’s probably around 10-15. Yard is mainly used to store coal trains.
Great catches, like the visitor center displays. When I was down there at that museum and catching trains last year. I found the visitors center loco to late. It was dark and couldn't get good footage of it and I haven't made it back down there.. thanks for showing it. Looks way better in the day light 🤣

Hi Jaw Tooth! Happy Monday my friend! Great video!
Thanks! You too!
That’s where I left for my first cross country Amtrak trip back in 2016!
One of your best videos! Great shot of the SOO Line car. I’ve only seen 10 tracks across in some of the yards in New York City, Boston, Connecticut.

It is obvious that railroad management did not grasp the changes coming with development of diesel power.
Super good one today. Thanks.
Thank you too!
We have a Cabela's here in Grandville, MIchigan... great place for socks and guns.
Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed

The Chesapeake 1308 would have been the type of Steam engines my Grandfather drove for the C/O back in the 1940’s and 1950’s.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
i live in huntington not too far from the amtrack station. right across from the tracks, i see trains go by all the time from my bedroom

Awesome! Hello Oak Hill!
I grew up in Huntington, my dad worked for C&O. Many times I would be at the train station, and these tracks were always full of coal cars.
Nice SD70 leader and I'm assuming a empty coal train movin good nice video
Yeah thanks
Great Video
