Thank you Squibrail, yea this is a great location to get meets. There is a defect detector just past the turnout in the video, but it's just a dragging equipment detector and doesn't talk if no defect. The detector in the video is for the westbound Z, the detector is located just 4 miles west of this location. Thanks for watching my friend!
I have to hand it to the author, everyone loves a train horn but these videos are awesome because of the lack of them. Nothing like hearing the engines go by and operating speeds and hearing the thump of those massive Pistons pulling that entire train!! 🤘 nice vid
Thank you Larry, I really appreciate that! I love a train horn as much as the next guy, but I just prefer to choose locations away from grade crossings, if I can, and like you stated, you just can't beat the sound and feel of monster horsepower! Thanks for watching my friend!
Thank you John! I did quit for several years, things came up and I couldn't do the videos anymore but that's in the past and I'm back at it again! Thanks for watching my friend!
Thank you Bruce, unfortunately I lost her back in January, she was just shy of 14 years old. Glad to hear yours is doing fine. Thanks for watching my friend!
BNSF is constantly maintaining their track work on a regular basis, the zoom on the camera accents movements like you describe. Thanks for watching my friend!
Great video, my friend. I really like American railroads. I have several videos on my UA-cam channel about Brazilian railroads. I even have a simulator cabin at home.
Thank you. The conductor actually got on the radio and said "you're getting some great video today" I was able to hear him as I have a scanner. I thought that was pretty cool! Thanks for watching my friend!
That is an interesting height right at the top of the locomotives. You get a full dose exhaust. Nothing like the smell of diesel exhaust in the morning!!! 😁👃👍🇺🇲
Thanks John! I don't mind the smell of a little diesel exhaust but at the speed they're traveling, the wind created by the train blows the majority of it away before I could get more than a whiff! Thanks for watching my friend!
Noticed quite a few containers from R&L Carriers on the first two intermodals. I don't usually see very many of them in my neck of the woods. I'm in Norfolk Southern's ex-PRR territory south of Lake Erie and into the upper Ohio River valley. I see the vast majority of their freight moving on the highway.
I've been seeing quite a few of the R&L Carriers, both containers and pigs on the stack trains for at least a year now. Most likely they ship them via rail to the west coast and then use the truck for local delivery. Thanks for watching my friend!
@@PacificNWRailfan That might be the case, especially when they have a full container going to one or two terminals. Here, there are about six terminals in about a four hour drive apart. I'm a linehaul driver for them out of the Youngstown OH terminal. I usually run to either Buffalo NY or Hagerstown MD
What's funny is where I live, the ONLY thing I see is CSX, and BNSF is considered foreign power. I'll often see oil trains rolling through the Trenton Subdivision or something.
It all depends, when there is a westbound coming, the lights will be red, indicating a train in the block ahead. When the oil train departs the right signal is green until the locomotives pass the signal. Thanks for watching my friend!
Thank you Kelly! There was plans to install a bridge here. They had the approaches and abutments built before the project was cancelled. Now it's a great spot to video trains! Thanks for watching my friend!
The FRA requires a "buffer car" between railcars carrying hazardous products and locomotives to help protect the crews. The buffer cars are filled with sand. Thanks for watching my friend
Great to see trains in PNW. I live in the tri cities where BNSF has a hump yard.
Thank you Zachary! BNSF has a good sized yard there in the tri cities. Thanks for watching my friend!
I ❤ how the dog is just sitting off in the cut just chillin.
Thank you LupeCoded. Yea, she's a pretty laid back dog! Thanks for watching my friend!
@@PacificNWRailfan Sure thing! I appreciate the content. Engineering nerds like me eat this stuff up. 🚂
It’s cool to see a CSX locomotive on this line!
Yes it is, even better that it was a leader! Thanks for watching my friend!

Thank you Mark, it's one of my favorite spots and it's close to home to boot! You are welcome and thanks for watching my friend!
Good catch of that meet with the tanker train knocking down the block signal and we could hear the defect detector too.

@@PacificNWRailfan Your Very Welcome!!!! 😁
Haven't seen a video from you in a while...thought you'd quit. Great to see the great Northwest again!
Thank you John! I did quit for several years, things came up and I couldn't do the videos anymore but that's in the past and I'm back at it again! Thanks for watching my friend!
I see you have a new pup. If your black lab is gone, you have my sympathies, Dave. My old lab Ted is about 14 and still doing Ok.
Thank you Bruce, unfortunately I lost her back in January, she was just shy of 14 years old. Glad to hear yours is doing fine. Thanks for watching my friend!
Watching those tank cars roll through that switch, each gives a twitch to get back upright. Probably would be a good idea to take close look at it.

Great video PNW, just re-discovered the channel and subscribed again.
Thank you Prolificposter and thanks for subscribing and for watching my friend!
Excellent as always…. AAA+ lots of flat spots on that oil train’s wheels
Thank you Charles. It's amazing how many railcars there are with flat spots on them. Thanks for watching my friend!
Very useful elevated vantage point there. Great sound from the locomotives on the intermodal powering past.
Thank you Andrei, I have always want to try this particular spot and finally did! Thanks for watching my friend!
Nice catches Dave and cool meet also
Thanks Darryl and thanks for watching my friend!
Excellent video my friend very nice
Thank you and thanks for watching my friend!
Great video
Thank you and thanks for watching my friend!
@@PacificNWRailfan No problem
It's extremely rare to see a CSX locomotive that far out west! Great catch!
Thank you, actually it's not that rare on this line lately. Thanks for watching my friend!
Great video, my friend. I really like American railroads. I have several videos on my UA-cam channel about Brazilian railroads. I even have a simulator cabin at home.
Thank you! That's cool have the simulator cabin! Thanks for watching my friend!
that oil train looks like a snake or slinky as it moves over from the siding to the main track great shot!
Thank you Jim, it sure does! Thanks for watching my friend!
Cool catches! Great action!
Thank you Charlie and thanks for watching my friend!
Great moment two trains meet in same time and crew oil train notice you while railfaning.

Why are the lights still red ??
It all depends, when there is a westbound coming, the lights will be red, indicating a train in the block ahead. When the oil train departs the right signal is green until the locomotives pass the signal. Thanks for watching my friend!
