4 six axle engines = 24 axles - 624 total axles = 600 axles divided by 4 per car = 150 gons and four jacks [ancient term for engine]. That's a heckuva CSX train pulled by two half century old engines. You caught that kind of action a couple of days ago with another CSX and two old GP's doing the work. Nice to see old engines recycled and still working for their keep.
Now that I truly have seen the longest gandala train, I need to head on over to Jason's channel and see the shortest gandala train, and possible the slowest 🤣🤣
Years ago Conrail, later NS would run long gon trains like this from the port of Philadelphia to western PA with steel slabs.......when they got into Altoona PA they would sometimes have 3 Gevo's on the head end and 4 SD40-2's shoving hard on the rear.....I've seen this back in September 2006.
Enjoy your videos have always enjoyed watching trains since I was a child and still do in my retirement years keep up the good job for us train enthusiastic people jaw tooth
150 gondolas, they must have some coil steel some where that needs shipped!! LOL!! You hit the jackpot on that NS train JT, if I were you I would buy some lottery tickets!!! That was a nice mixed bag of merchandise freight on that CSX train!!
Now that's a whopper of a gondola train. With a strong economy and demand for steel up it's all hands on deck. While NS has a sizeable order in for new gons note how many Southern cars were in that consist. They're at least 40 years old and many of those old Conrails are also coming up on retirement but for now still earning revenue. Great going away shot of the NS train. The curve, signals and high tensiom towers just speak volumes. Those rebuilt CSX SD40s were like the modern day version of Charles Atlas as it hit the Xing stating "Nobody's gonna kick snow in my face!" With a welcome home from the happy animals another successful trip
@@lindenshaw1986 Gondolas carry scrap and ingots. They are one of the most used railroad cars used in the steel industry. Another would be the cars you see at the beginning of the second train--the one with the CSX "square cab" locos. They are curved on top. Those cars haul coils of steel that will be later uncoiled, stamped and cut into shapes for things like car bodies or other steel shapes. I bet that if you search youtube for "turning steel coils into car bodies" you will find videos that show how that works. But gondolas are used to carry scrap, or in-process iron and steel ingots, or pipe, or I-beams, etc..
@@lindenshaw1986 if they contained slabs, you wouldn't see anything, so it's hard to know. That many cars, though... kind of suggests to me empties--maybe JawTooth knows?
@@jonglass Loaded cars you can generally see the truck springs are squashed, though in a single-commodity train that's either all loaded or all empty, it can be a bit of a challenge figuring out what extreme they are at.
this is another example of a very nice shoot in streets where there still excists complete and entire old fashion industrial buildings very nice to go back in time together in your episodes jaw tooth
150 Gons, that is a good train. From almost new cars and which are a little curved and rusty everything is there. The little film is just as beautiful as the film of the box-car train you once showed here. Greetings from Berlin / Germany. Sven
Good morning Jaw Tooth. That was amazing a Norfolk Southern train with 140 train cars and the CSX long was to awesome. Thanks buddy! It's LIVE ACTION time.
OUTSTANDING!! Man, you outdid yourself AGAIN!! First the neat old industrial buildings… I was looking at the ornate brickwork on the cornices… wonder what that building was back in the day… the gondola train was really cool and even MORE awesome was the ghost Southern Rwy gondolas … lots of coils steel cars on the second train and just as a bonus the CSX motor punching through the snow bank at the street… really cool! Start the video, son!!!
Hamilton is a rail lover dream. You have the CSX mainline, which Norfolk Southern uses to get to their mainline a few miles up the road. And a little past the signal bridge from where this video is filmed there is a southbound "directional" running track which CSX uses to get to their mainline via Sharonville and relieve congestion on the ex B&O. So Norfolk Southern uses CSX to go North. CSX uses NS directional running to head south.
Super neat video. I was going to say that all the gondolas in the Midwest were on that first train, but the second train had some, too. Great crossing with the old brick buildings in the background. Doesn't seen like the smoke or fire did any damage. I was sure hoping they hadn't burnt down. Always good to see Norfie and Chessie and their buddies!
Looks like you finally got some good snow! It's nice to see trains in the snow, but it's getting close to the time when it will be real nice to see them in the green again 😊
Great to see your excellent choice in head gear!! I'm used to seeing this beanie on Jason's channel and now on yours. On the bad weather days here I wear mine too! Jason is a great promoter of UP Michigan businesses and now you. Enjoy both of you chasing trains. Stay warm.
I loved watching that train splash through the snow. A few years ago, a snowblower for the trains was parked in nearby Rhame. I hoped to get pictures of it or even video of it in operation, but, by the time I got over there, it was gone.
Hello I love trains and I just want you to know that I’m not too far from Hamilton Ohio I’m in oxford and love watching your videos Thankyou for taking time to show us these cool videos
I didn't count the cars or the axles, but I did notice that two of the clouds weren't paying attention right there at the beginning. Looked like they were trying to let some Sun peek through. Gracias por tu video. RT sends... Puebla, México...
This might be one of the tip prettiest train videos of all for me. Norfolk Southerns black beast locomotives in the snow with a Godzilla of a coal train. The whole video was totally boss Even the town and the buildings were perfect. Would love to see this rig coming down the mainstream of LaGrange Kentucky. Can't say enough about your videos,quality,great comments and the awesome adventures you take us on Brian. Thank you for your efforts and braving the searing cold to bring us Americana.
For both you and WWOT, talking about DPU’s, if you haven’t seen the videos from Mark Clay McGowan, he showed a video from near Tehachapi Loop, a BNSF with not 1 or 2 DPU’s, but 5!!! 3 in the middle and 2 at the end……..that wasn’t even counting the 4 lead locomotives!!! Of course around that territory, there’s a LOT of steep grades.
WWOT, I think you answered my SpongeBob question with your comment here, it has to be those smaller cab fronts with the yellow square. Now, what makes it a dash 3? 3rd upgrade?
Yes that was a lot of gondolas on that first train. Those CSX SD-40's sounded real nice, I cranked up the bass & volume !! Woooooooooo !! 👍 Awesome VID !! 👍 👍 👍
Wow JT 2 great catches I just find the length of these trains mind boggling.... Love the tanker cars.... Here in the UK the amount of freight wagons is usually 18 to 30 hauled by a single EMD class 66 locomotive.... So you can see why we find your freights so amazing.... Great stuff JT 👍🇬🇧
Great Jaw Tooth! I like gons, the most underrated rail car of them all. And to get 150 of them? Wonderful. It’s also nice to see the coil cars with the refurb’d SD 40-2s! I used to see that combo in Pittsburgh back in the early ‘80s. By the bye, Jaw, Hamilton reminds me of Youngstown.
Wonder if those gone where coming out of storage or going in storage . I would find it hard that just one consignee would need that many in a short time
I love seeing trains plow through snow. And it's fun seeing the snow turn into spray along with the last car making a rooster tail spray of snow. I can see them from my bedroom with the tracks being less that three houses away.
Thank you for capturing these two trains in Hamilton, Ohio, Jaw Tooth! That train of gondolas was something to see. I wonder where that train originated and where it was going. Who was going to use all those gondolas? The CSX train powered by the SD40-3s had a variety of cars on it. Thank you for braving the weather and the road conditions to go to Hamilton, Ohio to capture these trains.
That double dpu looked a bit odd pushing, especially after such a long set, like, is this going backwards now!? Norfie upside down looking at the dogs like, "dogs, WHY are you upside down? lol Love applause at end! 💥💨🤣
Great catch JT 😀 In the UK 🇬🇧 that train would stretch from east to west lol 😆 We’re lucky if we get 18 freight cars 🙄 Take care in the snow ⛄️ cheers Stevie 🏴
Saw a unit train of gondolas like these recently but it was all COER gons full of scrap that was maybe not even half as long with just 2 locomotives. I've also seen a few unit trains of old coal gons used for scrap. And the video you had of the 2 BNSF & CN loco's, I saw all 3 about a week ago going east out of Northtown on BNSF.
Man, I love rail going through old industrial America. I imagine there were more buildings and factories there back in the day. This is such a great video. I’d love to own that cathedral-window building in the background! Centuries from now people will be doing historical research with your videos. Thanks, Jaw Tooth.
That was a long train creeping on the surface. The train rolled at a moderate speed and I was able to read the numbers on some gondola cars. You shot a good shot.
I've never seen a train with that many gondolas, and I was also pausing the vid to look for spring compression on the trucks to see how loaded they were. And it was great to see the SD's working like they were .. that was quite a load they were pulling, without DPU's also. And as friskie as Norfie was I was waiting on him to start messing with Chessie .. another great video .. thanks.
Wow - is that line Norfolk Southern, CSX or shared by both by trackage rights ? They split apart at some point to their own respective lines - where does that happen ?
Have you noticed at several locations where you, and possibly WWOT shoot, that the main crossing lights fade out briefly? The arm lights, and the white lights stay on.
Yes, that is caused by the camera. I see that a lot. Looking through the camera it looks like they are malfunctioning but looking straight at them you can see they are working properly
I was thinking that first train was serving some sort of steel works. My hometown gets similar manifest coming from three or so factories in Sharon, PA area heading into Youngstown and continuing towards Pittsburg my guess. Either gons or coil cars are the most frequent ether with scrap or product from the mills.
Hey JT that definitely was a long gondola load for sure I got a 150 of them one of the longer one’s I’ve seen on your channel, and just glad it was going slow enough to count them. Thanks 🙏 for sharing your videos I love ❤️ them I’ve been sick and plus our racing season opened up in Florida and been preoccupied with it. Again thank you 🙏❤️
I counted 143 cars on the last train! I wish I could see trains this long in my area. And it's extremely rare to even see any trains running! I swear if I ever get to see one, I'll be posting the recording on my channel lol.
Great videos! I've seen long gondola trains coming in and out of a stone quarry in Central NH, when the "Big Dig" was happening in Boston; but none the length of what you've just shown. Quite a few gondolas on the 2nd train, too. Thanks again. PS: I think Norfie gave you a wink 😉 right at the end.
Man,theres just nothing more rustic than a freight train running in the snow thru a kewl little town. Just doesnt get any better than this .....and yeah the first freight was the longest gondie train Ive ever seen. Nice video as always Brian. Still shots are excellent too
just goes to show you how much TORQUE those old EMD SD40-2’s had. on another note, listen to the difference in power output between the ET44AC DPU and thE AC4400CW! that ET is way louder!
4 six axle engines = 24 axles - 624 total axles = 600 axles divided by 4 per car = 150 gons and four jacks [ancient term for engine].

Nice to see old engines recycled and still working for their keep.
That's exactly what I counted!
That's correct....,100% comes together
I concur with your comments I thought it was going to be around 230 + but I’ll take 150
David you are a math wiz
Yeah that’s was very impressive, the last train, it didn’t count the cars but apparently not too many that 2 SD40s couldn’t handle 💪🏼😎
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but JT has the BEST audio. Lots of bass and very clear.
When my wife asks me if I like the meal, I do my best "NO DEFECTS" and since we both watch these, it's good for a chuckle.
Haha
Those two CSX engines look like they're fresh from a shop refurb!
cheers,
Doc
150 gondolas by my count, what a train! Thanks for capturing it JT
Now that I truly have seen the longest gandala train, I need to head on over to Jason's channel and see the shortest gandala train, and possible the slowest 🤣🤣
That was a lot of gondolas! Sometimes at work they bring contaminated soil and ballast in gondolas. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
An all gondola train is MUCH more pleasing than an all auto rack imo. Love me some gons!
Wow! A gondola parade! Norfie, look! Thank you very much Mr. Jaw Tooth! 😀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you too!
cool catch on that gondola train. Love the CSX spongebob units too!
Those two classic old buildings from about 1890s will probably catch on fire 🔥.Most old towns do.The train is fantastic.
It would be cool converting some of those old buildings into Railfan hotels. One there in Hamilton, Fostoria, Plant City.
Years ago Conrail, later NS would run long gon trains like this from the port of Philadelphia to western PA with steel slabs.......when they got into Altoona PA they would sometimes have 3 Gevo's on the head end and 4 SD40-2's shoving hard on the rear.....I've seen this back in September 2006.

Those gons have a hard life, rust, wheel flats, bulging sides, but still earning a living.
JT this was an amazing catch, i have seen this long line of Gondola's on the Southern st louis line again thanks you for the catch
this is another example of a very nice shoot in streets where there still excists complete and entire old fashion industrial buildings very nice to go back in time together in your episodes jaw tooth
It's cool how your animals all get along with each other.

I love the sound of that SD-40 horn!
Some brand-new cars on both trains as well. Notice how quiet new cars roll by!
Son …….your my kind of crazy ! Love the trains , keep ‘‘em coming !
More to come!
Wow. That was awesome! You find the most interesting trains and places. Thanks!
Glad you like them!
TWO LONG TRAINS WHAT A CATCH !!!! EXCELLENT JT
Thanks for watching!
Good morning Jaw Tooth. That was amazing a Norfolk Southern train with 140 train cars and the CSX long was to awesome. Thanks buddy!
It's LIVE ACTION time.
Good morning!
Great catch JT! Like seeing those Conrail gons in the mix still!
Thanks!
Now that's long for sure, drone footage showing the entire thing would have been epic.
Gondola City Dude! What the heck would they do with that many gondolas? Makes you wonder! Laughs!
OUTSTANDING!! Man, you outdid yourself AGAIN!!

Thanks again! I appreciate your comments and support Chris!
Hi, i love your videos, really great to see these song trains in small towns. Thank you and cheers from France -
Thank you very much!
Nice catch on both trains! ❤️ this spot in Hamilton
Both of those trains that came through Hamilton were long ones. It looks like a great place to watch trains. Stay warm out there.

Just yesterday they had another fire at the same buildings. I don't know what is going on but the area is a little shady. Thanks for watching!
I love those SD40-3s
Looks like you finally got some good snow! It's nice to see trains in the snow, but it's getting close to the time when it will be real nice to see them in the green again 😊
You got that right!
Just nice to see thanks

Thats the most gondolas Ive ever seen, and with a double DPU Alright! Plus 2 CSX Sd40-3 SpongeBob Units
Yes, that was a good day. It started out slow but then both of these trains came almost at once. The CSX train had to wait for the NS train

Wow! I’ve never witnessed that many Gon’s being pulled! I was looking for DPU’s mid pull! But they were pulling up the rear! Great catch Som!
I counted 150. Must be heavy to need two DPU’s on the rear. Then 2 Dash 3’s be pulling 142. Awesome!!!
Good morning jawtooth! Hope all is well with u stay safe out there & keep doing a wonderful job! (Keep the video going son)

Right on!
When a guy is used to C.N train horns, Norfie Southern horns sound good. Keep up the content Son 👍🇺🇲🇨🇦
Thanks 👍
Great video!! I am always surprised by how quiet those cars are. When there isn't a defect on a particular car, it is almost silent. Thanks.
Wonder if those gone where coming out of storage or going in storage . I would find it hard that just one consignee would need that many in a short time
Great video! I love seeing older locomotives pulling heavy mainline freight.
That was a real long train. Really cool !
That was cool. I have never seen so many gondolas in one place. Great video
Thanks for watching!
I love seeing trains plow through snow. And it's fun seeing the snow turn into spray along with the last car making a rooster tail spray of snow. I can see them from my bedroom with the tracks being less that three houses away.
Amazing videos jaw tooth keep up the good work
Glad you like them!
I think those 2 engines on the rear of that long gondola train ought to be called (DPP’s), Distributed Power Pushers instead of DPU’s.
Good footage of the cat In the Bonus round... Blue tick hound?
She is a Blue Healer. So, yes, correct. Have a great week!

Jaw tooth that's alots of gondolas on this train ❤
Hi Brian! Nice catch!
Were all of those Gons empty as far as you could tell? It would have been funny if CSX went back the other way with 151 “Gons!”
It's super cool to see freight trains.
Looks like they cleaned out the yard at AK Steel. Wonder if they were all empty or if they had slabs in them?
Man, I love rail going through old industrial America. I imagine there were more buildings and factories there back in the day. This is such a great video. I’d love to own that cathedral-window building in the background! Centuries from now people will be doing historical research with your videos. Thanks, Jaw Tooth.
I agree with you. I love the old buildings also. I want to document what is here right now for ppl in the future
Nice to see alot of old Conrail cars...
That was a long train creeping on the surface. The train rolled at a moderate speed and I was able to read the numbers on some gondola cars. You shot a good shot.
Keep the amazing work

I counted 150 gonds on that train Jaw tooth. And hello from Tacoma, Washington.
Cool video today. Can't wait for the spring!
Nice batch o' gons with a few NWs sprinkled in for good measure.
Yes indeed!
Have you noticed at several locations where you, and possibly WWOT shoot, that the main crossing lights fade out briefly? The arm lights, and the white lights stay on.
Yes, that is caused by the camera. I see that a lot. Looking through the camera it looks like they are malfunctioning but looking straight at them you can see they are working properly
I should have thought of that possibility. Video rates will do that.
Great catch on both trains.

I was thinking that first train was serving some sort of steel works. My hometown gets similar manifest coming from three or so factories in Sharon, PA area heading into Youngstown and continuing towards Pittsburg my guess.

Nice video as always Brian.
Still shots are excellent too
You got that right!
Good video my friend thanks for sharing stay warm my friend......Robert Trains
I counted 150 gondolas and of course 4 engines. That was a huge train
just goes to show you how much TORQUE those old EMD SD40-2’s had.
on another note, listen to the difference in power output between the ET44AC DPU and thE AC4400CW! that ET is way louder!
That building in the back ground were cool to.son hit thumbs up.
I loved that gondola train and the other train is too long for those SD40-3...
