Rail Grinder Action at NIGHT - How It Works! Sparks, Soot, Smoke, and Much More
Вставка

- What would you think was going on if you saw LOTS of SPARKS, smoke, dust, and water jets coming from railroad equipment? One might be thinking, what is happening here? Its actually part of regular track work, but really makes for a scene at night!
In this video, we'll get to see a Loram rail grinder working its way under the cover of darkness, and in light rain. We'll see it perform track work, shoot sparks ALL over the place, and blast jets of water. Lots of explanations are given to detail what is happening along the way. We'll end with seeing how rail looks before, and after, it gets ground. Its a VERY cool operation to witness, especially at night!

The combo with the rain makes the light show even cooler!
Yeah! It was such a neat sight, and really cool to witness as it went about its work.
Thank you thank you for finally doing something. Jaw Tooth never did. I used to watch his rail, grinding videos and he never ever ever showed us what the result was. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it, and liked it! Too many times we see the action action happening, but never the after results. I wanted to make sure I included it, and WHY they do this operation.
Great catch! As a signal guy, I work with the Grinder from time to time when it's in my area. They are a very high tech bist of gear and grind down to very fine tolorrences . The only issue with them , apart from fires, is the grinding dust they leave behind! These tiny bits of metal can get suck in insulated joints and cause track faults , though this is not very common.
AS you say , they are great to see at night and always cool to see operating.
Cheers, Gregg.
Thank you for watching, and the neat information on the grinders! I never thought of the dust getting into the joints, and causing track faults.
Saw it sitting in the Fridley yard last Friday. Great catch & the night video is impressive.
Thank you very much, and glad you enjoyed it! Its a neat operation to see in person, especially at night.
Pretty sure ive driven past this engine before. Was wondering what it was for since the cabin is different from all the normal engines used in the US
These certainly have a unique look to them! They look the coolest when working away at night.
is there a schedule or someone to contact to know when they're going through cpkc lines?
There sadly isn't; all of that information is kept under wraps. :/ Thanks for the comment, and watching!
