Excellent video!
4:05 Hearse driver was looking for Darwins who like to take their chances at the crossing. May this be a warning to them!
That guy who fell over reminded me of a colleague who died doing his job marshalling trains. He slipped over on the ballast shoulder and ended up with his leg under the moving train that he was going to couple up. That train was only moving at about 2 MPH but he fell just in the wrong place. He wasn't even a risk taker.
Condolences. Lost a co-worker to a brain bleed. We didn't ask him to go to the hospital.
Someone woke up with an empty tank of brains that day to think it was worth hopping on a gondola that was moving 10mph and crossing over then jumping off. Yes he saved himself 30 seconds but it could have cost him his life. There's no reset but on Real life, kids. This isn't some video game.
eeeek! one of my first thru-freight conductors showed me correct way to mount or dis-mount from moving cars. if you havent been shown, and practiced a bit, you are guaranteed to go flying. And from a gondola? Good luck if you're going more than 5 mph. Dont do it.
I don't see the issue
He's lucky his foot/leg didn't land closer/over the rail head. He may have had an interesting discussion with the ER staff.
Bro really thought he was in a game
@@bmwtravel1100
So what's the correct way?
He was real close to getting cut in half.😮
loved the ending - that was pretty
Beautiful British Columbia♥️
Long live wamx and bugx. Keep the classics working. ❤
Fantastic railway scenes and great trains. Thanks for sharing and have a nice Sunday. Best regards from Germany
I am so happy Roanoke's movable camera is working again, and there is again interesting footage to contribute.
18:24 Saw this before the rebuild. Fantastic job by whomever rebuilt it.
That BN caboose needs to be in that museum. Repaint over that tagging.
Wow! Excellent catching all the trains in multiple locations, especially the Heritage Units, Herzog train in Cordele, Georgia, CSXT9969 in Ashland, Virginia, and so much more, I like them, they're awesome, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much.
🎈🎈🎈 Happy birthday to the guy at 17:00 . (Just in case he sees this.) Hope he had a great day. 🎈🎈🎈
luv bro thanks 🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@cxsarmusic_Happy birthday!
@@cxsarmusic_ You are welcome. ☺
That Darwin falling was scary close. He probably doesn't realize just how close it was. Dayum.
4:09 Negative, that's a 1940 LaSalle. After the "Ford Hudson" ID I'll be keeping my eye on you! 😄
I believe it's actually a '39 , but good catch anyway .
@@bobbrinkerhoff3592 Nope, it's a 1940. Lots of differences between the two. If you're trying to figure it out don't use Google images, it's unreliable. A good guide book will help you out.
Ending segment; best view anywhere!🥰I'm not biased or anything, just sayin'.....😂 Thanks for the nice work on all the Grab Bags!☺😘

The LaSalle looks nice. I love the color of this car
It's not a Studebaker . That's a LaSalle , A.K.A. a baby Cadillac .
@@bobbrinkerhoff3592 oh okay. I thought it’s a Cadillac because of the description. Thanks for the correction though
@@AGamerThatIsAFanOfTrains2879 LaSalle was the lower cost alternative to the Cadillac. GM didn't bring the line back into production after WW2 .
@@bobbrinkerhoff3592 that's good to know.
CP brought out the old unit for this
"Alive Again" was the perfect ending to yet another awesome and amazing video! My regular Sunday morning routine here in Bacolod City in the Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤️ is to have my morning coffee while waking up and watching the newest Grab Bag video. Alive Again was a such a soothing 😌 instrumental piece and went great with my coffee and a Sunday morning. It's 7:20 am at the moment and the start of Sunday for me.
Halong = Take care
God bless always 🙏 ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it, halong.
And Allah too.❤.
3:50 R.I.P to that CSX MP15T and that RARE GP60 as they are being sold to LTEX.
Nice shot of UP1995 running solo.
7:04 Hope he had a nice trip. Guess we will see him in the fall. Maybe the morgue.
Yes
Never a good thing to witness the aftermath of a trespasser incident.
Great video Virtual Railfan! Keep it up!
I still appreciate the Pac-Man noises for the CP units 😊
its the multi mark's on either units or cars
Loved Thanks VRF ❤
Jumper: Until the time it doesn’t work.
It would have been one very interesting conversation in the ER.
Love the 26 engine power move!
Of the 26 engines, how many are producing power for this pull?
@@peterp1158 Probably 3, The 1st 2 the the rear DPU
@@peterp1158
Actually, it took all those locomotives to move all those locomotives.🫠
great catches especially toward the end of the video
6:37 The Darwin Candidate had their hood up and mask on. That's a double red flag in my book.
Yes
He came very close to falling under the wheel.
Big 10 Curve… Long Train Running!
At 1:40 , 1995 was going to the IRM for CNW days. Just some info on the topic
C&NW Historical Society 50th Anniversary and their convention also @ IRM 5\17-18
Logo I used to see when I was a kid in Chicago 1959 -1961
Your my favorite UA-camr
Wow! TY!
Dude was desperate to get over to the other side.
I see what you did there.
Simply beautiful the pictures with the music at the end, thanks!
It was great to see the beauty of Revelstoke's mountains and skies in that glorious ending--the music, as usual, was perfect. I had to look up "opera-style centerbeams" and the Cowboy Engine, so as usual I learned a lot. Thank you!
*Awesome Catches*
Thanks for the great tour around North America watching trains Dectur, Waycross, Kansas, Iowa, BC, Washington. All of it was cool!
4:08 Beautiful, just beautiful.
On the prowl for Darwin award winners near that crossings.
It really is, and 80+ years old!
Great video as always 😅😊
Nice ending!
2:10 Amtrak 300: "Here I am, top of the line, the best passenger locomotive Amtrak has ever used. And yet, not only am I damaged, I'm being sent for repairs on, of all things, a freight train. It's beneath me. Oh the dishonor! Oh, the humiliation! Oh, the indignity!"
Gordon: "Hey, that last part is my line. Find your own you pompous engine."
Thomas: (looks at Gordon with a smirk). "You're one to talk."
4:04 I wasn't expecting a hearse to look that good.
I believe that is the Moorpack incident Amtrak Coast Starlight ACL-42 300 was the one that hit a Ventura County water tanker truck.
UP 1995 was heading to IRM
IN A GRAB BAG AGAIN FOR ROUND 2 MUCH LOVE GUYS🚆😃
Happy birthday!!!
I trust you enjoyed your day railfanning! Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Cesar!
PanAm boxcar!
That wasn't a Darwin candidate, that was Darwin himself.
How some people manage to live.
That bloke or woman who jumped off the train is lucky they did not lose a hand,leg or their life
2:21, Wow! Look at Amtrak 300! It's damaged!
It was wrecked in a collision with a water truck.
@@sanddabz5635No, it struck a truck. Hopefully, AMTRAK will rebuild it.
Poor 300. It made me sad to see her.
Shake hands with danger 🎶
Hi Virtual Railfan and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Virtual Railfan & Friends & Randy
where's Revi??? look forward to the next Grab Bag - great job!! thanks for doing this - God bless!
He's really shy sometimes.
20:15 Full Scale Snap Track Switches!
Please excuse my ignorance - but what causes the wakka-wakka noise - as heard frequently at Revelstoke?
CNW 1995 going lite and solo in Rochelle!
11:40, Hey look! It's BNSF 1938 with a caboose!
22:55 Looks like some more of those Spirit Air super economy fares. I wonder if they have flight attendants (Stewardesses for us oldtimers) on board? LOL
Shortcut almost cost him a Leg 😂
What accident did that much damage to the Antrak 300?
June 28, 2023 Moorpark, CA
@joescarborough1 he asked "what accident did that much damage to Amtrak 300" not "when and where did the accident happened"
Damage seems to match the result of collision with a water truck at a grade crossing at Moorpark, California on June 28, 2023. The locomotive was heading the Coastal Starlight. The locomotive and some units immediately behind it derailed, but no cars toppled over. The crossing reportedly did not have automatic warning devices. You can research by entering some keywords in your preferred Internet search engine. "Amtrak locomotive 300 accident" is sufficient.
@@catreader9733 thanks
Amtrak has wrecks when they do
Wow what is that was BNSF Train KCS locomotive .
My kingdom to anybody who can explain that headline!
Mislabeled the the 1939 hearse, should be a Packhard
Nope , that's a LaSalle , AKA a baby Cadillac .Packard had a much bigger grille on them .
Boy that Amtrak engine looked like it took on a coal train.
Water truck, but close 🤷
6:40 7:05 How NOT to be a hobo and not illegally trespass on railroads and trains.
I'm confused. about the 10:40 mark I notice what appears to be a "passenger" train with CSX logo. CSX has a passenger line?
Also, at the 15:03 mark, what the heck is that weird green torpedo-shaped object they're moving? Looks alien. 👽 Ah! Finally figured out their airplane bodies w/o the wings. Still looks weird.
That "passenger train" is the CSX Executive's train.
Those are Boeing 737 fuselages being shipped from Boeing's Wichita plant to Everett, Washington for final assembly.
Tho CSX passenger train is an office train. It's a marketing tool, robably being used to show the railroad to important customers and/or potential customers..
@@georgeadams1853 That's cool--I didn't know that. Thanks!
12:08 What's with all the UP SD70ACe-T4s?
2:45 A little duct tape, a little bondo. It'll be fine!
Nope!.... This is strictly a job for Flex tape🤣
Starting at 12:27 or so a car, or cars, are peeling out.
2:11 So, all the trains that pass through Kansas pass through Fort Mdison, is that it? 2:55
Depends on the final destination. If the damaged engine is going to the yard in Chicago or to Greenwood, IN, then it would take the same route from California as the Southwest Chief, which does go thru Ft. Madison.
@@jmtpubs thanks
I give the guys dismount one, no I'll be nice two out of a perfect ten.
Its my understanding there will be less 737 fuselage assemblies travelling through Wichita soon.
Boeing is at the table trying to buy back Spirt Aero Systems. It's one big mess as Spirt has its fingers into many things for other aircraft manufacturers.
@@thomasboese3793Also Spiro might be responsible for much that Boeing is being blamed for as the fuselages are delivered ready for wings and the tail end.
@@jamesmckenzie3532 It was the worst move Boeing ever made, to spin off the 737 fuselage assembly. How is that not the core of their business?
@@thomasboese3793 You will have no argument about doing this. Another misguided attempt to pad the bottom line. Companies have to return to taking care of the customer no matter the cost or they will disappear. Sears is a fantastic example of this. They failed to heed the signs and are no more.
Is Amtrak 300 being moved to a repair facility or is it being used as a DPU?
I have very poor sense of direction on these live cams.
Either going for repair, or to be stripped of reusable parts and the remains scrapped.
New category: DARWIN AWARD with INJURY 🥇

Anyone know what happened to that Amtrak engine? 2:18
I think that one hit a water truck in the Western US.
June 28, 2023 Moorpark, CA
@@Pearls996 Thank you.
@@joescarborough1 Thank you.
Hi VR!
MetroLink cars are supposed to be in California
12:30 I don't know if BNSF plans badly or what their deal is, but they seem to have a lot of trains that are just transporting locomotives. I thing the previous record was something like 16 or 17.
BNSF general operating policy is to do major power repositioning moves as loco consists, as do some other roads, but others will shift units in regular frieght moves but as always there are often exceptions.
Railroading is more noticeable from other transportation methods in that they can move many freight or passenger cars with only a relatively few power units while air, truck, and water (with some exception for river barge traffic) are one-to-one for power and haulage capability.
In virtually any transportation medium you are always going to have almost constantly shifting market demands where need for power and carrying units in areas will increase or decrease and the need to move assets from where they were needed to where they are now needed is almost continual.
One good example of this kind of logistical dance routine is coal traffic where loaded trains from a coal region may need say 4 locos to deliver but only 2 to return the empties so you would have at one point a build up of locos that could be put to other use but back at the coal field you would need more to be added. Since the goal is to get as much work as possible from each loco hour the decision to simply leave same loco lashup on empties return might not be the best use of their time. Another example would be in agriculture where crop growing seasons can result in "feast or famine" for power and car needs that would then be shifted to other markets when need in one ends and another begins.
@@kennethhanks6712 Terrific explanation--thank you! I always learn so much on this channel.
7:00 Perfect way to lose legs. So far #1 Darwin candidate of 2024.
Did Amtrak 300 hit a deer?
A water truck
Whaaat??? You missed the CP "Waka-waka" Pac Man sound on the locomotive at 4:14 :-) ... or do you reserve that for rail cars with the old logo? (4:43)
We skip some now and then.
Why not 6:41
3people were killed last night when Amtrak train hit a pickup truck near Buffalo last night.
yes it is very sad! I think it was grandparents with their 6 yr. old grandson :(
First to watch!
I'm on UA-cam :D
I swear the Darwins are far beyond being simply brain dead
@10:45...... So does CSX have a passenger train?
And question number two, where is the San Juan Capistrano Camera anymore?
Office cars yes, passenger service, no. Amtrak handles all the passenger services on CSX tracks.
@@SD40Fan_Jason
If you would, could you explain a little bit more about what an office car is? That's a mighty fine looking train, with I guess mighty fine office cars. Is this a treat for regular employees to ride around in, or is this for the CEO to go around in?
@sanddabz5635 office cars are a series of passenger cars that make up a specific train set and wear the company paint. The purpose of this train is so that the office staff and more importantly, the board of directors can continue to operate from within the train. Essentially it's the business building on wheels with offices that have desks, telephones, filing cabinets and so on. Conference rooms where meetings are held, usually in a dome car atmosphere rather than a corner office in a skyscraper. But then it also includes dormitory services so you can retire from the office and not have to get in your car and go home just yet. The dorm cars have sleepers, a lounge, the club car and probably a gym or other recreational activity. And then of course you have gotta eat! So there's a dining room and a kitchen car to serve the folks aboard the train.
Back before there was an Air Force One, the US president had an office train with all the similar amenities that were offered in the White House. That is where the standard was set for what makes up an office car train. In most cases if a president ever had to travel by train the railroad would be honored to let them take up office in one of their office car trains. And in fact when a president was forced to travel by train for security reasons that are unknown to the general population, that might even be our US president riding around in an office car train. Who knows?
@@SD40Fan_Jason
That's impressive and thank you for sharing all that insight. CSX certainly puts their best foot forward showing off the CSX brand with that beautiful "office work train." It's great to see that this old equipment has not been put out to pasture but is still utilized for its intended purpose. With economics and everything so many companies have downgraded and downsized everything it's just really neat to see that they haven't done this to this train and replaced it with just a plain old metal box rolling on wheels if you know what I mean.
I just realized that you're the individual who also clued me in about the proper ways to depart a moving train. Thanks for both! 🙂👍😀
@sanddabz5635 not a work train, mind you. A work train is any train that performs a duty or service to maintain or inspect the track. That could be a ballast train, or a TOFC with the MOW equipment on it. Or it could be one of those observation cars with the giant window on the rear and tons of electronics fastened to the undercarriage for scanning the rails. Most work trains are often short in length and do not return any revenue. They are also usually given a DTC or Track-and-Time block with the expectation of moving in either direction of that block instead of signals, unless they are just moving to a location within a subdivision and preparing to work.
Now an office car train is usually a special train, meaning it's not listed on any timetable, and there's no slot for it. Back in the day when railroads ran on timeslots and timetables, a special or extra train flew white flags or markers indicating its status among the timetable. Therefore the office train is usually called an Office Car Special or OCS for short.
Should they give DARWINS to birds & small airplanes 🤔❓, that dude was just plain old lucky, or he may have been a cat in a previous life 😸😸😵😨😱❗
4:10 Hopefully not for a Darwin Awardee….😉
6:26 Wow - the Conductor can actually see the Rear of his train....😎
8:06 That white 18-wheeler in the background - PRAISE THE LORD JESUS!
Don't you mean May 17th and 18th? You put in May 18th and 19th!
And I though no one ever read that, lol. Good catch!
For once I thought we were going to have an appearance of CP's Multimark logo _without_ the Pac-Man sounds. Quite disappointed.
Don’t be hating on the PAC-MAN sound! It’s a grab bag ritual!😁
We didn't do the 4:14 Engine one.
If he fell under the train he would have been done for cut in half never ride on train cars its dangerous
Hopping a train to actually travel somewhere is one thing, but hopping a train just to save a minute of time, and then having no idea how to properly bail, that's just annoying. It gives the real, good train hoppers a bad look.
Really? When all is said and done don't really think it possible to put "train hopping" in a good light.
@@kennethhanks6712 Yeah, understandable, but it's the same with speeding, or J walking, etc. No one's perfect, we've all done something dangerous and illegal at some point.
Cute kids.🤗 Someone must have finally told them that, yes indeed, you are on camera! Beautiful footage at Revelstoke ... just think, Revy's down there somewhere.🐻🤎
