CN Freight Train 2

- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- At the request of several people, I went back to the Honey Creek Road railroad crossing for a follow up video. CN 2522 and CN 5635 pull a northbound mixed freight up Canadian National's Waukesha Subdivision, past the new crossing signals. The 78.7 defect detector also gives another read-out, but identifies itself as CN instead of Wisconsin Central. This was filmed north of Honey Creek, Wisconsin.

One of the oldest and best train videos I watched
Warcrazyness the first version of this is the oldest not this vid
Oh Yes, The good old memories I watch this since I was a kid
OMG I remember watching this when I was growing up!!!
Ethan the Railfanner me tooo 👍👍👍😃😃😃😃😃
Me four
Same
Man same.. I legit thought I was the only one
Same
Still watching this from time to time. Sits in my favorite videos. Thx.
We love Brenton81's train videos. Nice angles and no camera jerking, and the readouts at the end. This train had everything, from auto racks to intermodels.
@Berqy123 A detector is a device that automatically checks the train for defects like hotboxes, sticking brakes, dragging equipment, etc. as it passes. A status message is then broadcast from it on the railroad's radio frequency once the train finishes going by. If there were any defects, it would specify what the defect is and give a location (axle number) on the train. The train would then stop and the problem would be checked out and corrected. 78.7 is a milepost number.
Back when I watched Thomas and friends alot I would watch this video alot.
Thomas and friends got me into real trains.
I like that old railroad crossing bell
Believe it or not, in the middle of the night, here I am searching for good train videos so I can show them to my son tomorrow... my 1.5 years old son!!! :D
Used a tripod, no senseless zooming, filmed the entire train. Everything is perfect. Why so many dislikes? New subscriber here.
If nostalgia had a location, this is it.
I agree! It is my most favorite location where Brenton has filmed his train videos and I have told him that. Sure wish I lived in Wisconsin since I would be going there often to see trains. 😎
I watched this years ago as a kid
And I it’s one of the first train videos I saw
Basically, yeah. It checks each car for overheated wheel bearings, sticking brakes, dragging equipment, excessive dimensions, etc. If there were any problems, it would give a count of how many defects there are and their location in the train based on the axel number from the front.
Nice vid, I get CN and CP trains here in NY a couple times a week
Wide world trains how are you doing I never would have expected to find you here
At least the crossing gate and lights stayed down/on until the train was past now.
Sweet Catch!
CN 2522 C44-9WL
CN 5635 SD75i
hold up, i saw both of these units within the past 4 months, looks like my childhood was brought to me irl!
@@NorthernAlbertaRailfannerI agree with you buddy!
Woah! I hadn't heard anything about that. I know there's one or two crossings with the little lane seperation barriers on each side so people can't swerve through the lowered gates, but I wasn't aware it was a quiet zone.
Thank you! I'm writing a novel, and one of my characters gets hit by a train (brutal. I know). My only difficulty was how fast the train would be going, and how much dialogue I could get through from hearing the train to impact. This video has definitely helped, especially with the angle. So thanks!
These signals actually do have LEDs, but they're a different type than the other ones. These are ball LEDs. They're pretty intense when you're looking at them straight on, not so much from an angle though.
It's the message automatically broadcast from the defect detector. You can pick them up on a scanner that's tuned to the railroad's frequency.
I turned this on for my baby brother who LOVES trains, and he loves this video! Just out of curiosity though, why does this have over 1 million views?
I saw the four windowed cab and thought it was. Now when I think about it, CN bought some too. Thanks for the info!
My 2 1/2 year old daughter loves these videos.
@seahawks847 Thank you@ The first one was taken in March 2007 and this one was taken in July 2009. They were in the process of installing the gates back in 2007, so these gates have been there for a little while now.
@Saemar900 Detectors are installed by the railroad in different locations, trackside. You need a scanner to be able to hear them after a train passes.
wow the track has been upgraded alot since the first video! and the gates now have crossing arms!
The alternating red lights have been fixed to so that both the near and the far signal flash together instead of opposite.
pretty long train again. good to see they put gates up!
really enjoying these train videos! dont know why but im getting a fascination with trains lately
No problem, and yup! CN only has about 15 Dash 8s. They're pretty rare!
I work weekly with trains (at least once or twice a week) the yellow cars with the gray siding are used to transport cars, usually 2 or 3 levels of them too, if all of those were full of vehicles... well that is just a lot of vehicles.
0:26 The first train horn I've ever heard
@childofgod140 They're most commonly refered to as a "police scanner". There are all kinds of different brands. You can find them at Radio Shack, Best Buy, etc. or order one online. You program the railroad's radio frequencies into them and you can hear the radio conversations.
Your videos are very simple, but yet amazingly entertaining. :D
great low & close perspective in order to see the length of this passing beauty
I use a Mini DV Panasonic PV-GS65. I transfer the videos from it using the SVHS port for a nicer picture. UA-cam tends to make the videos a little darker than they really are.
Yeah nice video ... I am from Canada and the CN main line runs right behind my house .. 2 crossings with gates and bells with in 3 minutes drive away !
You're lucky. I have the Union Pacific Chicago-Milwaukee main a mile away from me but I can't see the trains from my house, I can only hear them. When CN bought Wisconsin Central, the tracks in this video went from about six trains a day to well over 20.
This is an excellent spot to railfan. You should film here more often, everyone seems to like this spot!
my little brother loved this train
I remember seeing this too when I was 5 years old
Not very many places to hear the horn anymore, since Mukwonago and beyond, Burlington, and all of NE IL are quiet zones for CN.
I always find it amusing that trolls make fun of other people's interests yet are completely oblivious to the fact they're more pathetic than anyone, spending their free time trolling videos. All you have to do is go on A-Ten Pilot's page and look at the one video he uploaded. It'll give you a pretty good idea of his mentality. His random capitalization of words in his attempted insult also lead me to believe he has a hard time grasping very basic skills, like elementary school punctuation.
I remember seeing this video when I was 7 years old
You can see them partially installed in the original video. It took them a while to get everything finished.
sweet this crossing gets gates now, nice video
@childofgod140 You can use a scanner to listen for trains, check the signals to see if something is coming, look down the tracks for a headlight.... lots of ways.
The Bing Map Birds Eye view still has this crossing as gateless!
I'm happy watching your videos...... keep posting. This train was really interesting for the stack cars--I don't usually see them with any containers in them at all when tacked on the rear of a mixed freight like that.
One of my FAVORITE locations in your videos and thanks again for making this VERY interesting video almost 8 years ago. I wonder what part of Wisconsin Honey Creek Road is located in and it is a LOVELY place to watch trains. I would love to see it in person someday (but NOT in the winter time, of course, for obvious reasons).
This spot is in Southeastern Wisconsin, right off Highway 20, between Waterford and East Troy. The actual town of Honey Creek is just a little ways south of the crossing. (Heading down the road in the direction the camera is facing.)
Thanks for the reply and where this LOVELY crossing is at. My friend grew up in Whitewater which is 26 miles northwest of Honey Creek. And before you replied, I went online and found a Honey Creek Rd. in the Oshkosh area but obviously, it was not the same road as this road.
I remember this when I was 1 2 3 4 years old
And I thought it was recorded next to my grandmas house
No, it isn't. I didn't see a BCOL mark on the side, and I did some research, and found out that it's just a regular C44-8W (Dash 8).
From mighty machines
I love trains
This is my second favorite video after CN Freight Train 1. I also love that horn. Sounds very beautiful and dramatic. What type of horn is that?
Ah yes, the engine leading is an epic *C44-9WL*
Like it was yesterday I remember both the Original & follow up video
Excellent video.
This is a really interesting high quality video, well done!
Good Video.🚂
Great vid! You guys know how to run freights over there!
Wow! that one is better than the first one,
keep them coming..John.
CN 2522...this sounds familiar....OMG! CN 2522 is on my TS2010 copy! I downloaded it, BTW.
CN has 55 straight dash 8s 12 former LMSX and 26 former BCR's
the train is so long that it only needs to go one mile to get to the next city.
When was it that CN changed the detector to announce CN instead of Wisconsin Central?
@dudekusko You do in the first video "CN Freight Train". In this video, I've changed my position and am standing further back and to the right. I originally shot a few feet back from where the crossing signal is now.
In this we can see 2 locomotives. I think that this train takes about 300 meters to brakes to 0
It looks like they're using ball type on new installs. I've even seen a Safetran T3, so there will probably be more of those popping up as well.
They’re now using GE Uniform Look LEDs as their lights.
My nostalgia
I watched both this film and the first film from the same location... I noticed how in the other film the red flashing lights switch off just as the back of the train is passing whilst in this newer film the crossing has automatic half barriers which wait until the train has fully passed the crossing, plus a little longer, before raising and the lights stop flashing.
Only one boxcar on this train!
And there are the new gates :)
That crossing has changed ever since he made the 1st video at that crossing
Great video & new gates , signals working good also thx.
@Brenton81 Actually, only 116 cars give or take. I've seen trains over 200 cars long - go to the flatlands or trains along rivers and the trains get longs.
I see that! As of right now, the original video has 642,431 views. It was one of the first train vids I shot. This one is at 2, 564 view after only three days.
@sillydylan2010 Those are autoracks. They're used for transporting vehicles.
If you call that endless make a video of a train engine connected to the back of the caboose
Both signals with the gate mechs were up, the arms and lights hadn't been installed yet. so they weren't in service. I was standing almost directly next to the new signal in the first video. If you look in the upper right side of the screen, you can see a small part of the gate mech in the frame. In this video I was standing further back from the crossing.
@OlioPL Thank you. I actually have an HD camcorder now. The last seven or eight videos that I've uploaded have the option to be watched in 1080p.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Beautiful. Amazing. Thank you.
@sillydylan2010 Yeah, it's the same crossing. They did install new gates. I also set the camera back a little further than in the first video.
Aw, nostalgia
Neat video! Great location!
you must work for cn. good to meet ya i work for bnsf. I see they fixed the circuit from the last vid. thats a good thing. do you guys have any rules as far as personal cameras and video equipment? Id like to take a camera on to show all the foamers what its like on the train but its not worth getting fired over. ever since the amtrack accident no cameras no phones no electronic equipment is allowed. what craft do you work for?
REALLY LONG TRAIN,IS THAT SOME KIND OF RECORD
Did you know Mukwonago is now a quiet zone??? I didn't see this coming.
The closest I came to death was when I was 17 yrs old and my friends and I tried to outrun this train in the Windsor/Detroit underground tunnels. We hopped on to the locomotive, on to the front railing, and the engine was rocking back and fourth so bad that it threw my friend off onto the culvert, and I scraped the back of my leather jacket onto the cement wall of the tunnel; that's how close it was. The worst part was ending up in serious Detroit gang land when we eventually jumped off.. lol
117 cars!! wow amazing
WTF whats with all of the dislikes
Yah, I was wondering the same thing.
Maybe some people don't like CN
SE Michigan Railfan yahhhhhhhhhhh fuck them 🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿
CN is the best! Lots of variety in locomotives and horns!
Awesome videos!
There's about 116 cars, it reminds me of Star Guitar (from outside perspective).
My birthday was on this day july 7th every year
I'm July 5th ;)
great mix man :D
Awesome!
This seems to be the favorite spot for a lot of people, out of all my videos.
i havent seen a train for so long.. its bad that i have to watch them on here =( i miss hearing the Horn when the train is getting closer to the crossing.. from loud.. LOUDER....
Seriously? A million people sat down to watch a train pass by? That's just... Wait a second... How did I get here?
BusDriverJoe are u a hater?????
the railroad crossing bells they sound like canada
Awesome Video
Thanks!
