  • This was a pretty bad mud spot. In today's video we will get it all fixed
    back up so track is in fairly good shape and safer for trains to run on.

    No music Dave, the machinery and your calm, steady & enthusiastic voice are music to our ears. Looks like the hillside runoff without additional drainage keeps everything under the ballast wet & the rock just gets pushed down deeper & deeper while the mud rises. A little coal dust can turn a lotta mud all black.

    Hi Dave,
    Always enjoy you videos. (Not a fan of the music when talking.)
    When I started in the railways over here in Victoria, Australia we used Electromatic Tampers, these were replaced with Plasser Tampers, both were difficult to maintain and needed a high level of mechanical skill.
    Eventually we changed to the 6700s, they were much cheaper to purchase but also much easier and to use and maintain.
    I have retired now but never thought of using the switch function on the 6700 to push muddy ballast out of the tie end cribs.
    Good work. Cheers Pete.

    Per your request, on the music, it it ok, just a wee bit loud as it wants to drown out your voice when you're talking. If you could soften the volume up by about half so you could be clearly heard, it would be better. Hope this helps. Good luck, sir!
