      So its its suitable for the trains. In normal circumstances Trams are riding along the tracks but you can somethimes see Diesel engines there or even Steam engines insted of regular trams

      Your not alone, out in the Western United States we expect trains running at line speeds at our grade level crossings as a matter of course. 😕 Just recently we had a police officer who arrested a woman, handcuffed her and put her in the back of a police car parked on the tracks. 😬 What you would expect to happen happened and the officer will probably be criminally charged. 🤔 it’s rather puzzling to people living in the western United States. Why would you assume that a shiny polished track was a safe place to park a car?

    Such a simple exercise. Locomotive goes in and takes empty hoppers out. Returns with loaded hoppers. But strangely relaxing and enjoyable to watch. And the street running obviously adds that extra "something" missing from other shunting / switching videos. ☺

    Living in the UK, where rail tracks are 100% fenced and strictly off limits, makes street running seem wildly anarchic and exotic. So much potential for collisions and accidents, not least for the guy casually operating the switch with uncontrolled road traffic squeezing past.

      Yeah we have trams. Nottingham trams actually use a combo of actual tied and ballasted rail and running on the roads. Places like Blackpool have trams but besides the sheds are on their own paved sections that cars can't touch.
      But standard trains. Nah. Besides. A lot of our traffic is passenger and the vast majority of lines are mixed traffic. Even our freight runs 60mph. Standard trains on roads are not a thing

    Back in the 1950s and 60s, we still had trains run through neighborhood streets. They went to the oil refinery. But by the 70s, that no longer was the case. We lived about a mile south of Lake Michigan and between where we lived and the Lake, the New York Central and the Pennsylvania RR had their tracks. They went to downtown Chicago and to all the steel mills and refineries in NW Indiana. On days when there was a strong north wind off the Lake, it sounded like the trains would come right through our living room. During all my adult years, I never lived more than a few blocks from an active RR track. I still love putting up the electric train for Christmas.

      @techsalesandmore3649 When I was a kid, we lived just a few blocks from here, and only a block off the line. My buds and I used to hop the train on this track, catching a ride to the city swimming pool. Seems like we always had to walk home though. Ha!

    Worked as a temp at Matt/Saranac brewery many years ago. I have walked around that facility many times on lunch brake. I never got to actually watch the railroad at work but they were always there bringing in grain cars. I don't drink so job always bugged my morals. Was happy to go back to my field

    At least with a single point switch there's only one point to clear out. 🙂 I wonder if the dirt washed in with a heavy rain, as I don't see a wider spill. I always enjoy seeing another adventure at Door 18. Our Peanut, being a short hair miniature Chihuahua, likes a warm day. She sends her best wishes to Witold. Cheers from Wisconsin!

      Good point about the rain, I think that's a likely reason for the "crud" build-up. Witold sends his regards to Peanut!

    Nicely edited. The track radius was so small, and the train swung so wide, it looked like a model train scene.

    Parts of nyc still have tracks buried in the street and rarely they are used. I seen in Brooklyn moving trains through warehouses and streets. They secured the train tracks from locomotives with a chain link fence to keep run away trains from running a muck

    Aside of model RR's, I've never seen a big GeeP on such a tight curve, esp urban street running. That was cool.

    Street sweepers are pampered in Utica with a sweet ride. Looks like they could use a couple of high pressure air nozzles front to blow the crud out.

      While I was still living in my college house, after I had been working for the railroad a couple years, I got to take home the locomotive! I lived less than 200 yards from an old junction track. We were doing a tourist / commuter excursion for a street exhibition in the next town over, where parking was going to be an absolute nightmare. So I was told to park the locomotive in a safe location near my house and then my coworkers could park at my house and ride the train in to work. Granted there were only 4 seats on the engine so we were a bit overcrowded, but it worked out phenomenally! There were probably 40,000 people milling about the city looking at 8 x 6 square city blocks of exhibits. They got on the train to escape the crowd, or maybe they also parked in the next town over! But either way, we were busy all day giving folks a quick 1-hour ride. But I will never forget the experience of taking home the company locomotive! Not many railroaders can say that with any genuine truth.
