    So it seems the eclipse will probably be either next Grab Bag or its own compilation. Either way would be fantastic.

      @Cpr1234 ... I'm pretty sure that Princeton, Indiana had good weather for it, in Albion, Illinois they had the Longest time in Totality being dead centered in the Path...
      Regardless, I'm with you... It was weird even if you didn't look directly at the Eclipse in the Path of Totality just to see the 360° of Red Twilight in the middle of the day!

    Loved the fireworks display in Georgia! I also liked the Canadien Pacifique, Quebec Gatineau and Spirit of Law Enforcement engines--and of course the rabbit and that sweet cat sitting down to think things over. I hope there will be some eclipse footage in the next one--this one was another terrific job!

    Tucson @04:00 I had to smile at the Cat, "decisions, decisions, shall I do a 'Darwin' here - that camera's bound to be watching me".
    Chehalis @11:30, I like the way Grainger trains always seem to call-up the Fallen-flag Hoppers for another turn of duty.
    Nice to see Tourists at the Horseshoe Curve treated to such a good display of classic EMDs.
    Wichita @09:40 - 2 No. Executive SD70MACs, spot-on, thanks VRF.

    I was watching the Waycross cams when that Georgia Central B40-8 left the yard. That was pretty cool, especially given how rare that model has become. Also, those OCS cars leaving Waycross on a manifest were actually on the tail end of the same train as the B40-8. That consist had everything!
    Nice catches all around, especially the cat.

    0:08 CSX 1973
    0:32 H1 and warbonnet doubleheader, and another warbonnet as DPU
    1:02 9-unit lash-up over Horseshoe Curve! Mostly older EMD power, one of them a high hood
    2:03 CSX 1972 as DPU. I believe this is the first time we've seen the Family Lines heritage unit (again at 2:28)
    2:14 CSX 3194 leading
    3:20 CP 8876 leading. This loco used to have Vancouver Olympics logos on it
    4:15 Quebec & Gatineau loco trailing behind BNSF units
    4:28 doubleheading H2 dash 9s
    5:48 US Army Corps Of Engineers crane barge with pieces for a new bridge
    5:40 NS high hood SD40-2
    7:05 Georgia Central dash 8
    7:50 five CSX business cars on the rear of a freight train
    8:34 NS 8098 leading. This is my favorite NS heritage unit so I mention it even when I don't mention the other NS heritage units that appear in grab bags
    9:32 large tarpaulined engines. Probably for boats.
    9:42 6-unit lash-up with two executive MACs
    10:10 NS 8101 as mid-train DPU on a BNSF train, along with 40-foot side door containers that I've never seen before
    10:26 some side door containers in old Sea Land well cars with large supports
    10:55 MRL 4303 trailing
    11:11 Rock Island hopper
    12:24 Rock Island boxcar
    12:37 passenger almost missed their stop! I also noticed the Northeast Reigonal cafe is sandwiched between Venture cars
    13:24 Amtrak 174 and 161 "arrow" on the California Zephyr, passing the Westbound Califronia Zephyr waiting to ascend into the Rockies
    14:10 fireworks in Waycross

    Obviously the cat was a descendant of Chessie the railroad kitten. Even though the cat was not near CSX property was looking for either the Chessie heritage engine or old freight car that still had Chessie on the side. Cats can be rail fans too.

    It's a sad comment on the US that a freight car gets a mention because it has not been defaced with graphiti. It's not exclusively a US problem but it seems to be more common.

    • @paulw.woodring7304

      @paulw.woodring7304 8 місяців тому +1

      @@John-cg8hb You have a lot more PASSENGER equipment than we do. So, it is understandable, and it's easier for our passenger rail operations to protect their equipment since there is less of it. I'm primarily a passenger fan, so defacing it really POs me, especially well-kept historic private equipment.
