American Trains through the Wars

  • Опубліковано 14 лют 2016
  • Over the years trains have had a large impact on wars involving the United States. From transporting tanks, jeeps, ammunition, soldiers, and more they've kept things on track for the allies to win. (Most of the time...) Anyway, in Trainz 12 we take a look at the evolution of American locomotives from the American Civil War up to the modern day War on Terror. Not all trains are military related simply because I lack the funds for JointedRail's Military Freight Car Set. Sorry about the mouse cursor, I thought the setting for it displaying was off.

    Even in the days of war, progress didn't stop back in then and it ain't stopping now. Because, as a railfan, WAR ain't gonna hurt the progress of the rails into tomorrow.

      It might actually help railroad progress in some ways. It will result in more rail traffic, and by extension, more money that can go towards infrastructure and locomotive development. That being said, I still despise war. I see it as a plague that has poisoned humanity and killed billions of people and destroyed countless civilizations.

      +Joshua Kosek Oops I meant to put 1945 to signify the end.... not 1941..... I'll have an annotation put up there. I was rushing that little bit and I most likely confused or misplaced the US start and put it as the ending. I used the European start mainly because that's when it actually began rather than just the US involvement.

      +AmtrakGuy365 makes sense. However during 1939-1941, we weren't transporting military equipment, except along the east coast to load onto ships. Every so often trains would cross the country with weapons and food, but not tanks. I think it would've made sense to have a pre and post war train. still a good video.

    CSX didn’t had AC4400CW’s in 1991 since the AC4400CW actually came out in 1995. Because at the time in 1991 when Gulf War was going on CSX was still using a mix of liveries on both former locomotives from the Chessie System, Seaboard Coast Line, Clinchfield, Seaboard System and L&N railroads respectively which were the predecessor roads that became part of CSX and the livery that CSX had at the time in 1991 for its livery of its own locomotives was the stealth gray livery with blue CSX lettering basically the inherited and all gray liveries the two liveries made up early years of CSX.

      While it would've been cool, it wouldn't be historically accurate or even nessasary. The American mainland, from what I know, after Pearl Harbor and pretty much failed Japanese balloon attacks (I've heard about a story of a German submarine landing an an island off the coast of New York or somewhere in the north east, but I don't know much more about what happened and I don't think they got farther anyway), was never truly invaded by a conventional military force or even guerrilla fighters. So, military supplies and equipment are often carried by civilian railroads anyway, often on uncovered cars.
      And camouflaged locomotives may seem cool, but doesn't offer practical advantages, and wouldn't help against sabtours or other attacks on soft-skinned non-combat trains anyway.
