    I have seen something similar in Mentor, Ohio on the CSX mainline. There is a restaurant right next to the tracks, offering sit-down dining, outdoor dining in the summer, and a volleyball court. There used to be a signal right by this place, before CSX changed the signal blocks to make room for longer trains. I saw crew members climb down, go inside, and come out with styro-foam take out dinner packages, while the train was stopped for a block signal.

    My stepfather was an engineer on the Southern in Rome, GA. They would often stop below Troy's BBQ. Someone would have to scramble up a steep bank, but they would all have BBQ for lunch. Little things mean a lot on road crews.

    CSX two track mainline runs right next to a restaurant in Mentor, Ohio. It is not a fast food place; ,it has seating and an outdoor volleyball court. Several years ago, there was a block signal (which has been moved to allow for longer trains) near the restaurant, and more than once I saw a crew member go inside, and come out with dinners all wrapped up in styro-foam "to-go" boxes, while they were waiting for a red signal to change to green.

    I've seen UP 844 do that in Central City, NE. She was on her way from Omaha back to Cheyenne and was scheduled for a refuel and water stop in Grand Island, but there was a Dairy Queen trackside in Central City, so they stopped and went to eat while the trucks drove 20 miles to refuel. It was pretty neat getting up close to the locomotive and talking with crew.

  • @wildandwackywade

    We have a line behind our McDonalds and Burger King restaurants here and I have seen several train men go in for lunch and dinner. Not often I might add.

    Nice video, Gene! Stopping at Caseys general store, Dollar General, Etc. is pretty common here. Especially when MOW's are out and about or a meet is going to take longer than expected. It's a good chance to go and talk to the crew as well! I remember when I drove one of my engineer friends to Dairy Queen while the conductor stayed on the train. It's awesome! Nice view of them racing at the end!!!!!!

  • @markmead2813
    @markmead2813 6 років тому +1

    Back in the day, when locals still used cabooses and railfans could hitch a ride, our local crew would stop at a restaurant by the tracks and eat lunch each day. Another time the conductor brought his fishing gear and had the engineer stop the train with the caboose on the trestle. He spent the next twenty minutes fishing.....didn't catch a thing.

  • @GTRailroadVideos
    @GTRailroadVideos  14 років тому

    @lespaulguy32 In Austell yes, totally NS. There are CSX tracks around Atlanta but not within 10+ miles of here, they're usually totally separated for the most part in this area. I/e not likely to see NS power on a CSX train, same with CSX on a NS train.
    It happens from time to time but it's pretty rare in Austell.

  • @GTRailroadVideos
    @GTRailroadVideos  14 років тому

    @gordondavis4 There wasn't any chatter. Just 'G5A clear signal Austell' and same with the power move, they called clear signal then stopped at BK! LOL.

    How times have changed...when this line was Southern Ry, before the NS merger, these would be high-hood Southern units. G5A's horn sounds like a Nathan P5, very much in the old Southern style since that's the horn Southern used on their locos up until the merger with N&W.

    I've seen eastbound NS coal drags (all with BNSF power) that're waiting in the hole at the NS Elko siding in Huntsville, AL send the conductor out across the main, past the Dollar General store, and across the adjacent 4-lane street to the Subway Store in a strip mall. Makes sense to me. ;-)
