It is so awesome when engineers acknowledge the fans :)
Yeah I love the train 🚂 engineer from last time when I was with my class the engineer blew the horn at my boyfriend IT WAS AWESOME FOR HIM AND ME
I love it all you young folks out and enjoying this favorite past time. i wpuld get out and watch if i could but its hard for me, but i shall live through your films!! thank u friend!!
So glad I could bring the trains to you!!
What a great community the rail fanning community has! I’m proud to be one!
Loud and proud baby loud and proud
Railfan we doooooo
Would of loved to have been there
I was there twice; once in 2009 and in 2010. Great place!
Nice to see you take time with the others. Railfaning is for all generations ! Great Job Rowan !
Agreed Mr. Bill, thanks for the support
@@RailfanRowan there's 6 engines on that train
I had a great time with y'all in Cresson. Thanks Rowan. Keep up the great work.
If I was there I would say STAY BACK 6 FEET!!!!! ONLY ROWAN CAN COME 2 to 3 FEET!
Great video of your day at Cresson, Pennsylvania! Everyone who was participating in the day seemed to be enjoying themselves for the viewing of trains and the companionship of the railfanning community that was present. For a Sunday, you had a lot of train viewing. Thank you for putting this video together and sharing it with us!
You're so welcome Thomas and yes for a Sunday we certainly did have quite a bit of traffic!! Love to see the camaraderie as well!
I was in your video bro 😂😂😂 this is me 3 years later
Great job Rowan. Lots of action. Great job mingling with the young railfans.
I love how railfan Rowan doesn’t worry about getting good shots of trains. He just haves fun and records the people there until the train gets close.
That was cool! The MOW train was the icing on the cake! 🎂
Thanks for the support B&ORR! Was a fun catch, awesome coming from you guys!
@BaltimoreAndOhioRR I Saw That Maintenence Train At Horseshoe Curve In August.
@Kareem Zachary I’m actually a good person and don’t hack people
I can say that is nice and Iceing on the cake
Great video, Rowan! Lots of enthusiastic participants and looks like a fun day for all! Great variety of trains.
Was a great day! Thanks Jackn
Hey Rowan! This particular video is the best I've seen to show to someone who doesn't understand what a railfan is. People sometimes ask me things like, "why do you drive 9 hours just to watch trains?", or "why go clear to Pennsylvania to watch trains?", or "what's it like to be a railfan?" "why do people call you a FOAMER"? I have sent this link to several friends who are just beginning to catch on. It is hard to explain until you stand 20 feet from a massive 4000 horsepower locomotive and feel the ground rumble below. Your video covers it well. Railfans have an instant brotherhood, there are no strangers. And, I really love to see so many young people getting excited about the hobby!
be safe,
.... Indiana Tom
WOOOO-YEA!
Hi, I really like your Railroad videos!... great that young people like you like Railroads and show it off. - Many thanks for that... Greetings from Germany / EUROPE
Nice to see so many young railfans .Another great video Rowan .
Thanks t34
Another great RR ( Railfan Rowan ) video, stay safe and happy foaming 🚂
The rainbow was so beautiful, and the rally was amazing! Awesome video Rowan!
Hats off to ya Rowan, this video is your best yet - hanging with the fans! You're right up there with Danny Harmon in our book. Congrats on getting 20K!
Congratulations!!! I finally hit 50 subs today, you helped inspire me to make my own channel along with other railfans.
Fantastic! Spread the love!! Happy Foaming!
Thank you, I'm so glad you feel inspired! Keep creating!
@@RailfanRowan thanks, will do!
You should also do premiers, it’s a good way to connect with other railfans
I enjoyed watching all the young fans as much as the trains. Great spot!! Thanks.
Thanks Gerry!! 👋👋👋👋
That is a train super highway. Lots of trains running by and that’s great. Good to see the younger generation appreciating the train industry. 👍
I’m glad I’m not the only one that’s crazy about Coal Trains.
Hello Railfan Rowan, It`s been a while since we`ve seen anything from you, I saw the first films from your hand again today, Beautiful to see those locomotives and the long freight trains passing by, I must say we missed you, I myself am also a machinist at the NMBS This is the Belgium Railways, Our freight trains are not as long as yours, But it`s always nice to experience the same as it goes with you, I should just ride with you sometime then it`s a party every day, But it`s such a long way from us to come over, But i hope that there will be more films from you now Rowan I`m happy to see you again on my Laptop My good Friend Your Belgium Friend Henk Van Zitteren❤😀😉
Haha that was me on that first train making all the racket 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome! Thanks for the fun!!!
You guys in America have all the fun. Nothing like this in the UK. Thank you for sharing.
Start one yourself! That's all I did!!
Thanks for sharing another great video Rowan!! Its so great to see the younger fans with so much enthusiasm, makes me heart feel so good. Take care, stay safe and happy rail fanning!!
Thanks Rob!! Was a pleasure!!
@@RailfanRowan Likewise Rowan!!!
Delightful rainbow and sunrise.. Indeed something to be grateful about. God bless
Amen!
Just flat ass amazing videos and very educational. We are grateful to be along for the ride. Thank you and keep the great videos and editing coming for us please. Love it when they blow some horns just for you and all the photographers out there in nasty weather.
Watched a couple of your vids from down south. See you made it to my neck of the woods. Glad you enjoyed your visit.
Awesome video I loved it. The last train of the day was Ns 741 he comes down to me on the ns s line goes to Catawba he gave me a SAAHC when he passed me to.
Excellent video as always Rowan, loved every minute of it and it looked like a great turnout at Cresson, it looks like something that will be an annual event, well done mate.
Ahh you may be on to something ;), thanks for the view!!
@@RailfanRowan mate, if you decided to do more of these rallies, I'd look at trying to come over from Australia sometime (maybe?).
Hi Rowan, great day - lots of rail fans and loads of trains. Definitely worth the early start. Good to hear the acknowledgments of the engineers
Yes, we had to make a full day of it
Dude!!! That was sick! I really wanted to go up there from Texas... Awesome!
Also NS 1001 that was leading that Ethanol train, my friend saw that train in Saginaw, TX! I only saw the end of that train.
Love the sounds of Notch 8 SD70ACUs, amazing!
Great job Rowan! Nice to see that your friends are still railfanning!!! Great video!
It's amazing to see such a friendly,young comitted comunity.I love it.👍🇺🇸Greatings from a German fan
Absolutely amazing sunrise! And it’s October.. Once again you out did yourself on your video! Fantastic.. Have a great rest of the weekend.. Congrats on 20K! Lots of support out here for ya bro.
Thanks cameron, means more than you know!
Hey Rowan, Those were some awesome trains! Hope you had a good time Railfanning there!
Thanks yangler preciate you
Like always Rowan, another great foamer video! Your commentary is appreciated!!
Congratulations Rowan on 20k hopefully you'll get to meet WWOT in Dunkirk NY.
That would be awesome!!
this is pretty cool. for the last 10 years i wanted to see railfan videos reality TV style. i think this fits the bill. Nice to see so many railfans together. here in KS I'm always alone or with a friend or two. but never see group outings. Back in the 90's when the Santa Fe depot was still at Emporia, KS there used to be a lot of people watching trains there. But since the depot is gone not too many people go there anymore. Most people seem to railfan solo these days. and rely on social media to communicate.
It's almost as much fun watching this as it was being there that day 👍👍 at times it's hard to tell who's more excited -- Rowan or Mason
Hahaa mason was pretty lit!
One of the most enjoyable culminations I’ve seen, ty!
Next time I’m down in Bristol Va. I’ll be looking for you. Nice job again Rowan.
Hello Rowan. Awesome video and such a great day with lovely people to celebrate your very impressive milestone.
Thanks as always mate! Was an excessive amount of fun!!!
Awesome video Rowan! Looks like it was a great time! There are two Dash 9 locomotives I noticed that are a little special, at 18:25 that NS 9473 has made an appearance in an Avengers Movie before and at 21:58 NS 9585 was actually in a derailment in my area back in June.
The very first train catch of the video is spectacular. K5lla on an AC44C6M, and a Shave And a Haircut hornshow! Nice!
Yeah when I saw that I knew it was going to be a good day!
Terrific catches/meets! I hope to go up to Cresson in the future to railfan!
Whew, need all foam buckets available ! Glad to see y'all out having fun. Thanks for the shout out for pt242.com I don't have anything to do with it but frequently chatted with one of the developers back in the early days. A really great group of guys !
Really cool resource!! Thanks for the view 😊
Greetings from New Jersey! Been a while since I've commented on a video of yours, but I've been catching up on your older stuff. This one though is very good and looks like it was so much fun. Wish we had this kind of stuff growing up.
Awesome catches! Beautiful sunrise too!
Thanks Ramapo!
I grew up my house right across from a Santa Fe line you guys would have absolutely loved it!
Nice work; I'm going to subscribe.
I was in Cresson once in July 2009. No other railfans were there at mid-day. The gazebo was there, but no toilet facilities.
I see that there's a bunch of young railfans. Good.
Thanks Von and yes many were even younger than I
Awesome video! Was in Clifton, VA 2 weeks ago and saw a Northbound -- don't know the number -- with the 911 Heritage in the lead.
Congratulations on 20K! 🎉🍾⭐️. You make foaming fun!
Thanks Alan I appreciate that thought sir
Best wishes and good Luck
You guys are so cool!! Love your video!!
Thanks so much Mary!!
Very nice Rowan, Cresson sure is a railfan attraction. Mason told us other railfans that you got to meet him.
First train Shave and a haircut nice!
Agreed
And last train too
Dude, you are a master of knowledge and entertainment.. Gotta like Matt for the ECU outerwear :)
Rowan, GREX is Georgetown Railway Equipment Co. based here in Georgetown, Texas. I moved here after living and working in the DC area for several years when we moved here to Georgetown. I enjoyed railfanning the area around DC, but decided to move to Texas to retire. I enjoy watching your vids. Glenn Anderson.
Thanks so much for your viewership Glenn! I appreciate it, I can see why you left!! Lol enjoy today's video!! Thanks again!
the k5hla horn show at the begging started it out with a big bang
Yeah I agree!! 🤣
Wow! What a turn-out! Looks like y'all had a killer time! Congrats again 20K! You earned every single one of them, no doubt about it. If ya ever make it up to the Western New York area, gimme a shout! can't promise anything but I'm friends with a co-owner of a sweet little Class III Rusty Rail. SSGBHF!
This is so epic! I love this! Great job filming! Thank you!
Thanks!!
Nice Man!! I Live In Pennsylvania And Its Nice!
Hey Rowan! Thanks for the invite, and congrats on 20K! We enjoyed the whole day. Even more fun that we can watch the day again and again... two full times through so far! Hope you do this again... we'll be there!
Thanks Ian and family for coming! It was super fun meeting all of you!

Great video Rowan! Keep up the good work!
Nice job, Railfan Rowan keep up the good work and be safe out there please
Had a great time! We had some pretty nice catches! Great work!
Looks like a good day was had by all. I wish we had places like this is in the UK
Nice catch never seen a train like that 6 locomotives on one train.
I’ve seen 9 counting DPUs on a train once
Nice video I could never agree more about how exited the people were when I went to cresson but I'm in indiana right now
I would love to visit the park this summer.
Awesome video, I love Cresson!
Great video. Interacting with the other fans works really well.
Nice I loved all the trains but the coal and intermodal trains were my fav!!!
That's awesome!
Nice video!! Thanks for all the great catches!! Congrats on your 20 thousand subs well deserved!! Keep up the great work!!
Thanks so much Eric!!
Great video!
Some awesome action!
13:07 I’ve met the guy at the handling of 36A (First Eastbound Manifest). He was on a stopped 23Z down in Derry, PA back in summer of 2020. Ironically I saw this train about 1 1/2-2 hours from when you saw. I had plans later that day or I would’ve been up in Cresson with ya!
That GREX thing is pretty cool! Nice video Rowan!
That Engineer has been to Olive and new carsile Indiana 2 years ago and he was a epic engineer to me in the cold
Very nice way for a bunch of fine young people to have fellowship with each other . OVER TRAINS,TRAINS, TRAINS !!!!!!
I was in Cresson in August for 2 days . great place to watch trains!
I was there in July, had so much fun I wanted to return for this rally!
@@RailfanRowan been there 3 times last time stayed at the station inn in Cresson.
Nice video rowan can’t wait for the next one

Love your videos
I was at Horseshoe Curve and the Gallitzin Tunnels the end of August. Enjoyed seeing the trains, but missed the coal train. Should've come over to Cresson. Visited Cresson before. You're seeing more than I did!!!!!!!!!
Cresson is cool but I like gallitzin as well, I did not spend enough time there
