Caboose & Complete Train Is Turned On The Wye!! This Is What Happens! CSX Local Train With Caboose
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Have you ever seen a complete train turn around? What about a train with a caboose? Watch how this CSX local switching train turns around as seen from 3 different angles. This train is in Covington, Kentucky and a huge auto racks train shows up. The CSX auto racks train came off the old L&N line to Corbin, Kentucky and was going around the wye to get to Louisville, Kentucky on the old L&N LCL Sub. The CSX local with the caboose had to wait for the CSX auto racks train before they could continue on to switch a customer. They followed the auto racks train with the caboose leading and being used as a shove platform. This video shows what happens. It shows a Google Earth map and I explain the route that the train takes so that it completely turns around. They needed to turn the train around in order to switch a customer that had a facing switch. I hope I explained it properly so that everyone can understand the move. The whole process took about 53 minutes. Waiting on the auto rack train to pass took most of the time. The entire wye is owned by CSX and they have 3 different lines that converge in this one area. The best frequencies to use here are 161.370 and 160.230 for the trains to call out the signals and the defect detectors. I also recommend 160.32. and 452.9375 if you want more information such as listening to the dispatcher and the EOT device. Thanks for watching! Please thumbs up and watch another JawTooth video to help my channel.

When I was a child, I always loved the caboose at the end of the train. Once the train was over and I watched the caboose go by, I would wave at it and say bye caboose. Lol.
Jawtooth is so cool. He's the only person that uses a stick of dynamite as a pointer.
Very nice presentation. We need to start calling you Professor Jawtooth. The maps make perfect sense of what is going on
True
Yup. Adding the map to the video is very helpful. . .and cool.
I'm not a Google fan but I am a Google Earth fan. Also Google Earth Pro.
I really like the map as well!!
Great job!!! I really liked you pointing out the path of the train. It makes the video so much more interesting to watch and understand what it has to do. Fantastic job as always. ❤️
My exact comment thank you maam
No whistle zone. I guess that works if the crossing gates are efficient and operable. In the ancient world of railroading, I rode on that type of caboose, i.e., Southern Pacific. Great for a place in the woods: 2 bunks with storage inside said bunks, reversible bench type seats, desk, oil burning stove, terlit, and 'decks' at either end for enjoying a brew and the view. Not insulated so cold in the winter, even though there is the stove. Now if you're a hunter, a caboose with cupola like the old Sante Fe makes for a great 'deer stand'.
Would have to add insulation and an a/c
Thank's !! i sure miss seeing the caboose on train's..
America the beautiful. Living on the east coast in a metro area with at least 3 million people I'm amazed to see how beautiful Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee (and other fly over states) are. We truly have a beautiful country.
You poor thing, you don't know what you're missing.
You should check out Tennesee. It is prettier than the other states and has a lot of natural countryside
Not sure how you have time to do these videos but we all appreciate it!
A rather complicated video. I’m glad it was you who explained it; anyone else might surely have made a pig’s breakfast of it. Your explanation was clear and concise, the result being that my interest kept pace with the video. One thing that especially caught my interest was the use of the caboose. They have become a definite rarity these days. By the way, I think you missed your calling; you would have made a great teacher. Just don’t use explosives as a pointer.
I have never experienced a "pig's Breakfast". How is it?
I think I hungry already! 😎👌👍
Nice to see a caboose without graffiti! Thanks for the video Brian. Hello all from Southern California.
That first shot with the CSX train pulling the freight cars and the caboose was outstanding. I caught the numbers on most of the cars, because the numbers express the character of each railcar. I like to watch the whole train, even though I cannot be near the railroad site. Thank you for another great video catch.
Thanks for a great explanation of how a train is turned around on a Wye. It's is a complicated move that takes quite a bit of time to accomplish.
Cool video! And thanks for the Google Earth explanation - - it really helped me understand what they were doing. And thanks for the Chessie and farm shots on the outro!
What a variety of train cars ... interesting but the caboose is the best .
Excellent use of a roman candle as a pointer, and always love a map. Rock on!
I thought it was an odd marker.
You find the coolest things. I look forward to watching your videos.
Always like to see the cabooses still being used! 👍👍👍
Me too!
@@FabianDiazTrainsTrucksNCars It was cool that the guy actually went inside the caboose. Usually the doors are locked shut
Good video jawtooth, always cool to see a caboose in use
Good job with google Earth, I would have never understood with out you help.
He said he should show with a marker on Google Earth. I was wondering if he would using it on the screen or draw a line on the earth? Haha!
Thank you Jaw Tooth for sharing this! I Loved the way you showed on the map where the train was headed and the caboose at the end of the train made it Perfect! Have you ever just sit quietly, listening to the sounds of the train, it is truly relaxing!
I find it relaxing too. Have a good evening.
Thank you very much!
It was awesome seeing the caboose. I miss seeing cabooses at the end of a very long freight train as a kid.
13 cars with caboose and 2 engines so technially 14 cars total and it's rare to see a caboose now a days unless its being used as a work house for the engineers awesome video jawtooth
Say heh ... GP-30 on the lead. Good looking classic EMD look. Back when loco builders had some style. Good catch sir.
I love small town local running and you capture it very well, Jaw Tooth. The bay window caboose and the wye was excellent.
Love the pointer. Living life on the edge. Go on with your bad self. Really enjoyed your videos. Have a wonderful evening everyone.
I enjoy seeing the scenes around your farm almost as much as the trains! I live in the middle of flat farmland in northwest Ohio~~~
I'm from Troy. What big town are you near? Lima?

I haven't seen a caboose in decades! I thought trains didn't use them anymore! I don't even know what they're for!
They use cabooses on trains that are backing up a lot as a rolling platform for the crew to safely flag the crossing. They sometimes use them as a buffer between the engine and a hazardous tank car being moved during switching.
Seeing the caboose is a treat.
Great to see a GP30 on lead. With all the signal issues at grade crossings, gates going up and down and lights going off and on while train is in the crossing, use of the caboose is prudent. Yes, seen one auto stack train, seen them all, unless one of the cars goes to ground right in front of the camera. 😮
That was a slug unit and a GP40-2
@@stretchlimo7275 Didn't notice lack of radiator vents. Tks.
@@t.j.carroll8512 it does look like a GP30 though, same style flared out top, I believe it's for the heat dissipater grid for the dynamics, not positive though
Awesome job of explaining reversing/switching action... yet another stellar video, dude!!
At 9:16 the lights stop working and come back on at 9:27. They go out again at 9:51 and back on at 9:59 as the Caboose came through. You then pan to the left and those lights were on. When the Auto-Racks came through, the lights on left stop at 10:58 and on at 11:05. 11:35 the lights on right go out and 11:37 ALL LIGHTS OUT. 11:41 all lights back on. Then as the Caboose comes into intersection at 12:31 the left light stops and the right side out at 12:57. NO LIGHTS!! Left on at 13:10 and the right on at 13:13. I've never seen lights do that before. Not even sure how to contact someone to get it fixed either.
@Dan C. I don't think those lights have been switched to LED. At least they don't shine like it. LEDs pulsate on video.
Maybe the lights are haunted?! Hahaha. Have a wonderful evening everyone.
What a considerate Driver no blasting of Horns, its amazing what a difference it makes to have a Triangle makes in your Train System, we have a few in the UK, only those who understand why will appreciate this posts, "wait and there's more"..........
Awesome explanation of what's going on! This makes the video so much nicer.
That's an excellent high quality video Jaw! I really like your explanation with the map! :)
Loving the videos man, Also can't believe Bobby Mackey's place is still there. Heard uneasy stories about it and would recommend nobody go there!
Evil lives there.
It very demonic place they close it for good
Great job “telestrating” the train movements, JT. Nice to an old GP30 in new CSX paint still working after nearly 60 years. Even better, a caboose. When it comes to shooting railfan videos, JT is the GOAT 👌
A slug set and a caboose a great combo.
Great Sunday Report! I always wanted to see a complete train reversing maneuver via a Wye (there is no any Wye in my country). I just had the occasion to perform one in Train Simulator 😂. Thank you very much Mr. Jaw Tooth! Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
They used to have a Y for Monmouth Park race track.They got rid of it& now the drop you off a quarter mile away on the main line.Great thinking.About a thousand people a day stopped going.
Look the map work & the gate going down after the train was in the crossing.
I see nobody gets your goat.😄
Not only because of the content of the videos I see your channel, but also because of your way of being. You seem to be a good person, an excellent friend. Keep going!
One of the really cool things is the lead "engine" CSX 2270 was a GP-30. CSX 2270 is now a "slug" or "calf." No engine or radiators or radiator fans, but the chassis has additional weight added. It does have its traction motors that draw electricity from the "cow" GP-40 CSX 6463. The venerable GP-30 had styling influence from the GM design teams lead by Harley Earl. Earl may not have designed the GP-30 but you can see his influence. The GP-30's were only built from July 1961 to November 1963 so at a minimum, the chassis is nearly 60 years old. Harley Earl is the father of the Corvette design and styling.
I noticed the styling of the GP 30 right off, but noticed the long hood looked different. Thanks for the info. Always liked the looks of the GP 30's.
Well done. Much more enjoyable because of your explanation of what was going on. Thanks.
Cool man, thanks for the ariel view showing exactly what the train was doing, that made it so clear !!
That long shot of the auto rack train switching tracks was really cool too !!
👍 great video 👍
Thanks for the map explanation Brian! Much easier for us to understand what’s going on.
You bet!
One of your best videos. I miss cabooses. I wish all trains still had them. A town I used to frequent in upstate New York had a caboose that was turned into an ice cream shop or diner. I can’t remember which one.
Used to have one that was turned into a restaurant here in Huntsville Alabama. Enjoyed eating there. Have a great evening everyone.
When NS had their 21st century steam program running a few years back, they had steam trains from TVRM going down the main line towards Birmingham, AL. They would go only to Attalla n do the same moves that this train did. I wish they still had those programs.
Nice video Jaw Tooth, very educational. I loved seeing the GP30 road slug. I've heard that some crews prefer operating from the road slugs because it's quieter than being in the power locomotives.
I love that you used a firecracker as a pointer!! LOL
Lol
It's good to see a caboose again.
Great video Jawtooth loved the live action trains I noticed when the train was backing up the crossing gates didnt go down until the train was crossing the road
Around here it is actually Common to see at least once a week a Complete Train with a Caboose either on end or towards front. few different ones too. Different color ones that is. Norfolk Trains that is. but seen ones that were White with CSX on the side, yellow ones that say Union Pacific on them. blue ones with Conrail on side. i even saw a Canadian Pacific one before
Love this format right down to where your standing,
Good call on just showing a portion of the auto rack train. They are long and boooooring. Man, that Bobby Mackay is one messed up place! Thanks for the explanation and the visual with Google Earth.👍🏼
In the classroom with professor Jawtooth ! Nice lecture-the Google maps with pointer sure helps with the explanation ! Nice piece of camera work too !
Regards
Great video jaw tooth, very interesting.
Love the caboose! Reminds me of the good ole days!
I've seen cabooses equipped with air horns for when they run caboose first. Seems like a nice safety feature for traffic.
Vintage EMD power. I’m sure both those units wore chessie paint at one time! Gosh I’m getting old!:)
Although I already know how a wye works, JT, it was still helpful to have you pointing out locations on the Google map. It can be difficult to mentally convert an overhead view to street level. You madeit very clear
I'm wondering why the train didn't just pull up to the north side of the wide and reverse down the west leg to do the same move in fewer movements.
Nice catch Jaw Tooth! The caboose made that train, I haven't seen a caboose in action in years! I like them smaller locomotives as well!
Glad too see you didn't use a laser pointer. That might scare poor chessie!
There's a wye up in Norfolk where they turn the Amtrak around, but dang if I can catch it. I thought it would be as simple as following their scheduled departures or arrivals but nope!!
Set up a cheap and discrete trail cam to at least see when they’re most often there. I’d love to see the one in Norfolk in action.
Interesting train action to model. Thx for sharing!
I missed the cabooses from the olden days more puppy pictures
This is one of me and my dad’s favorite spots to see trains, holy crap!
Only place I ever saw a train go around the Wye was CNW Butler WI for turning power and Union Ave tower I n Chicago to turn Amtrak consists. Your map work was excellent along with the narration. Many neat things in the 🎥 the GP 30 slug the decent looking caboose the kinked grade Xing where the trains pass resulting in 4 warning lights the auto racks snaking over one track then curving away and the former UP MOW coal hopper which then hauled junk ties and now carries scrap metal for DJ Joseph. Oh yes switching locomotives are often referred to as yard goats and some are even the same color as CCET. The one you caught snacking and then bolting was hilarious. Gotta love em
Awesome picture CSX train two locomotive auto racks very long haul weather is cloudy blue sky keep it coming jaw tooth bless you be safe out there two locomotive caboose backwards flat cars also live action
Cor look at the feed in the paddock. Incredible. 🇦🇺
They were taking styrene and something hot down to maybe a plastics company or something else that uses it in those tank cars. Who knows where the gondolas are going. lol
Great explanation, JT. Now a lot more people will understand how they turn trains around at a wye. Awesome video as always.
Noticed that towards the end the crossing lights quit working then started again...
You are too cool, buddy. Love your accent too. Living the excellent train life!
I love the L&N trains
Was nice to see a caboose, the one thing I noticed was how small the GP 30 and the GP 40 are compared to todays mainline locomotives!
Frank, that’s a slug on the front of that jeep 40, it’s just used as a cab and the 40 has the only working diesel and as JT mentioned earlier caboose’s are no longer in service per say, they are now referenced as shoving platforms, their is nothing on the inside that’s maintained and back in the 80’s the trainmen ( UTU ) agreement sold the flag mans job and each flag man received a forty thousand dollar royalty ( very technical aggrement ) and the caboose crew jobs were moved to the second unit of the consist, I worked through the entire era of going cabooseless…..And their was some unhappy campers, rightfully so….MS~~~
Boy! I haven’t seen a caboose since I was a kid! I’m 60! Leave it to Jaw Tooth! Great video!
Your videos just keep getting better. Thanks Jawtooth.
Glad you like them!
Loving the three shots of the caboose. Great video. 🤓👍👌
Hi Jaw Tooth. Great video. My wife and I were in Kentucky a couple days ago. We visited the Ark Encounter in Dry Ridge Ky.
Really enjoyed seeing it.
When we left we came up 75 across the Ohio. I saw an I&O train on a trestle above the highway and some CSX trains from afar.
We stopped for dinner at an Olive Garden in Cincinnati. I don’t remember the exact area it was in JB it it was just off I-75.
Have a great day!!
Awesome!
Your video was aces except in my opinion others may not agree with, you cut the auto train. Know you warned us. In particular the auto train going through two turnouts would not have been boring. Particularly the end. I think your the best for videos because you get it about watching the whole train and recording it smoothly. You don’t just do the engines and then cut to the next train. Strictly my opinion. I forward a lot of your videos and will continue. Loved the mapping too. Not being a “jumpin jack flash” is your strong point. God bless buddy. 😉
Did some partying and seen some great bands there back in the day.
Think. You jaw tooth for another great video. I really enjoyed watching this video thank you for taking your time out and sharing this awesome video with us I love watching your videos jaw tooth
Good Job on commentary!! Many times, looking at the arial view, not sure what I am looking at, keep adding your commentary, makes video MUCH better and interesting!! Perhaps, if you can, add a little history on where you are at. When were the "heyday" of these areas/crossings/towns??? Thanks, and again, keep up good work!!
Much appreciated!
I like your pointer you used on google earth happy fireworks day!!!!
You are correct, Bobby Mackeys roadhouse is haunted. I spent the night there and witnessed extremely strange events. But no ghost images. Good CSX video J.with the rare caboose.
I would like to film a train going by it but I don't like being there very long
Hoo wee! Gotta like that slug CSX made with a GP30 cab, there son!
Son showing the auto train would be time consuming but not boring! love your videos!
Fascinating. Thank you for explaining the maneuver so well!
I got the best reason to smile today. Thank you Jawtooth. I really do gotta catch some trains with you sometime hopefully.
Any time!
Are you based in Southern Ohio?
cool stuff 👍😎 . Wouldn't mind having one of those caboose to turn in to a home .
Nice slug, makes for a quiet ride for the crew
Great video and shots of this train,loving the caboose,I'm guessing a wye is like a roundabout? To bad those nice locos had no horn blaring! Very interesting,ten thumbs up jaw tooth, thanks
Thank you very much!
Holy schnicky - a GP30! Sweet! The back up move did not fire the crossing gates.....
Thanks for sharing, a unique part of railroading
Cool video Jawtooth! I've always wanted to see Bobby Mackies! Heard all the tales about it! That GP30 slug is cool!
I've seen a train do a complete turnaround in a wye. The Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge in SW Colorado does this after arrival in Silverton. After it arrives in Silverton and lets everyone off at their "depot" (which is moreso just a section of street), it reverses into a wye (caboose and all), then reverses back into the loading area and it's facing the direction for the return trip to Durango.
The train also does a complete turn around in a wye with people on board during their Polar Express train in November and December. It can't go quite as far as Silverton at that time of year so it goes a few miles north of Durango, does a reverse through a wye, while passengers are distracted with a huge display of lights and Santa's village (aka North Pole), then forward in the other direction back to Durango.
Good video en explanation hoe this railroadcompany works, to Serve the costumer. Good job, Mr Jaw Tooth.
Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands.
Nice video, Jawsy. Here in the UK we call the caboose a brake van and they are much smaller than yours. I miss seeing them now as all freight is in blocktrains with good brakes. The wye is a triangle over here but I think it's only used occasionally for turning steam specials to get the loco at the right end facing back the way it came. I watch all your films, usually last thing at night and think they are very good. Love the dogs too ! Ted, Manchester UK.
Cool, thanks! I appreciate that and this summer I will be filming all over the midwest USA. I wish I could film in the UK
Outstanding video and explanation but no surprise great job JT !!!
Just emailed you buddy. There is an old caboose just north of here, its pretty cool but very old and not used anymore. Always wanted to buy it! lol
As for me, on top of all your video’s the IOWA TRACTION Videos are on TOP of them all!
Thanks! I will have another one soon also. I have a lot of video of them
Wow! CSX still using a GP30. Cool!
Bobby Mackey's ? Yikes !! Supposed to be seriously haunted !!
🚬😎
