Happy B Day Leroy!!!!! And thank you to those who surprised him..... . GB.

🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
Happy Birthday Blessings Leroy🎉🎂🍻
Nice GB. Happy Birthday Leroy. Hats off to the FLG PD!
11:27, what perfect timing!
Makes your heart stop with these Darwin's, Phew... Happy Birthday Leroy...
Especially the one fool with his DOG!! That is very upsetting!! Shame on him!!
@@usmale49 Absolutely, he should never be allowed to own a dog...
When you’re 50ft from the tracks when the train passes, it’s hardly a Darwin moment. But the guy with the dog. . . yeah.
We all agree about the guy with the dog. As for 50 feet, if that person tripped or slipped, a locomotive doing 55, is about 73 feet long and 16 feet tall, and will do about 1 and a half its length in 1 second. For that person who slipped or tripped, I am sure the sound would be cut and the person being hit, pixelated so you don't see if placed at all ever. your chances are yours to take, the end results are yours to have.
Love the Darwins in FLG getting to meet the po-po.
Happy Birthday Leroy! Thank you for doing what you do! 🎉🎂
Happy Birthday, Leroy! 👍🙏
Wow! Great catching all the trains, especially the UP1989 in Chehalis, Washington, people crossing the gates down railroad crossing and getting caught by police in Flagstaff, Arizona, and more, @Virtual Railfan, thank you.
Happy birthday Leroy - and thanks for being a inspiration as well as a blessing not only to the folks in Ashland but to those of us who came to know you via the Virtual Railfan channel. ❤🎉❤🎉
Happy Birthday, Leroy!! You are certainly a star!!
Good grief...that one "Darwin Candidate" should be ashamed taking his dog over the tracks! Happy Birthday to LeRoy, the crossing guard! And the rest of the video is absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing!! 🚅😊❤👍👌
Happy Birthday Leroy! "Air Forced One" was a hoot, and it was neat to watch it work--I wish I had a snow-blower like that! Glad the eagle got a bite; it's hard to make a living in this weather. The gate-runners---I shouldn't laugh, but I did. And since our beautiful and historic D&RGW station in Salt Lake City was damaged by an earthquake and will probably have to be demolished, it made my heart happy to see a Rio Grande loco still out there getting the job done. This one was terrific--full of super-cool stuff, and another gorgeous ending!
Happy Birthday, Leroy! May you have many more!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a snow blower on tracks like in Kearney.
It was more than 30 years ago that the company I worked for bought a couple of box cars from Conrail. To get them, we took our lowboy trailer into Frontier Yard, along with our mobile crane. On the tracks nearby was a bunch of stored equipment, including a jet engine mounted at an angle so the exhaust blast could clear snow from the switches. I still have the pictures, somewhere.
@@maynardcarmer3148 So that's where the punny name came from--that's cool!
Happy Birthday Mr Leroy. Enjoyed the video very much thumbs up
Happy Birthday, Mr. Foster!
Thanks for another great video! I appreciate you pointing out the different rail company markings, especially the more obscure or faded ones. Happy (now belated) Birthday, Leroy! 🎉
Our beautiful bald🦅
Happy Birthday Leroy !!
9:39 Happy birthday Leroy!
Happy Birthday Leroy, and glad to see that Gate Runner get Karma
Happy birthday Leroy enjoy your birthday
Happy Saturday VR Friends😊
Happy birthday to Leroy! Stay warm out there, fella!
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday, Leroy!
Oh, can I ask y'all a favour? Stop asking how dumb can folks get? Some are taking it as a challenge......
not the engineer
Walking in front of a moving train is foolish, especially at night. It is harder to judge speed at night. Walking between railcars with your dog? That man is kucky that train did not start moving.
A H3 GP30, Lots of Heritage units, classic railroad freight cars, a Herzog train, and a special birthday for a great man. 75 years and still going. Side-by-side train meets and Amtrak inspection car. Great variety as always, VRF! TY.
Happy Birthday Leroy, all god to you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEROY
2:05 such a soothing sound
Great music at the end! Thanks.
hello Virtual Railfan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool Thanks Virtual Railfan Friends Randy
Oh Wow😮that train was hauling a-- down the tracks😬
OUTSTANDING ! ! !
Beautiful videos, Thank You VR..
Another grab bag! Time for popcorn.
Happy Birthday Leroy
I'm sure the Flagstaff PD Officers gave the 2 Darwins an earful about railroad safety, at the very least.
Happy Birthday Leroy!
Did not see anything in the Flag Police blotter about those crossing the tracks. Rest assured they got a stern warning and I'm sure they were told about the young woman who was killed doing the same dangerous thing they were!
*Nice Catches*
Happy birthday, Leroy!
0:08 cool meet in Roanoke Yard
0:37 two KCS ex-BNSF units trailing in Elkhart
1:26 Golden Traingle Railroad boxcar
1:38 Seaboard System hopper
1:55 UP 1989 leading
2:14 NS 1072 leading
2:30 Winchester & Western hoppers
3:33 This man even got his dog to cross between freight cars!
3:50 ALC42 335 on the Capitol Limited
4:31 CSX MP15DC
4:40 Wisconsin & Southern Sargento boxcar and I think the one in front of it is an ex-Amtrak express boxcar
6:32 first time I've seen a hi-rail snowblower! It doesn't pick up mounds of snow, it just blows air on the snow that didn't get plowed
9:30 two warbonnets trailing
9:42 Happy birthday Leroy and thanks for keeping Ashland's kids safe!
11:10 There are no gates on that side as that's a one-way street, but at least a police officer was there to see them cross illegally
12:06 I don't know where these people come from and where they go when they cross the tracks at Elkhart here. There's not much between the tracks and the next parallel street
13:04 CN 8952 leading
13:45 Conrail boxcars. The NYC markings mean that CSX got them, and those that got repainted CSX colors still have NYC markings
13:55 Family Lines became Seaboard System in 1982. Under Family Lines, each railroad still had their own markings, similar to Chessie System. Under Seaboard System, all equipment was marked SBD but the railroad was owned by CSX Corporation. Both Chessie and Seaboard were merged into one railroad, CSX, in 1986.
14:17 BC Rail Boxcar. It was known as the Pacific Great Eastern until 1972. BC Rail has been leased into the CN system since 2003
14:26 NS 4001 leading
15:22 P42 40 and ALC42s 327 and 317 at the front, and Beech Grove and American View on the rear
15:46 10-unit lash-up
16:09 this car braked too hard too late, but didn't crash
16:54 NS 4493 and 4005 doubleheading
18:30 Herzog well train at work in the snow
Good stuff.Thanks
Loved seeing that old Soo line box car in the Herzog clip
Happy birthday Leroy😊
Always good stuff..
Happy Birthday Leroy.
Happy Birthday Leroy. as for the couple..talk of Karma by the long arm of the law..
I thought there was going to be a collision between the two Norfolk southern trains in Roanoke Virginia
I thought the same
@@johrons that would be crazy if that happened
Me too!
Glad to know I wasn't the only one. Makes for a great video though!!
happy birthday leroy!!!!!!
Awesome grab bag
WOW TY Leroy!
Good video and shot of PC EMD ACE dropping signal in Roanoke, Happy Birthday to Leroy, nice sunset in Ashland and snow scenes!🛤🚂❄️
Great closing sequence ... well done!
I want to go for a train ride for my 68th bday coming up, & a train set🤭💃🏻
happy birthday leroy:D
😊❤ Leroy 👍
Sheriff John Brown in the right spot.
Very well karma strikes at an amazing time severs them right
Yes, justice at last!!
I missed it! But Happy Birthday Leroy! its my fathers birthday too! I wish you a good,healty and save year!
Happy Birthday Leroy❤🍀
Those 2 Darwins at Elkhart risked their lives to run across in front of Amtrak! All that for a train that passed in seconds!
I saw a Winchester and Western hopper on the bowline on thursday. It was much more rusted than the one on here but the lettering was still quite legible.
Great video - lots of good views in the snow!
Happy Birthday 🎉Mr. Leroy !
Happy Birthday Mr. Foster! 🎂🎉
Some nice catches again tonight, thank you VRF, especially BNSF SD70MAC 9407 and I wish NS would give Heritage loco 'Illinois Terminal', a clean.
Whilst Gate-running (Darwinism) is a serious problem and issue, I would have laughed if one of the two at Flagstaff had been driving the Estate-car that hit a tree recently.
Happy birthday Leroy from the UK
I live a few blocks from the CN Chicago to Canada main. We get meets here, especially when the Blue Water comes through. I never ever even approach the tracks until the gates are all the way up.
like the musick on the end.
🌵💐🇮🇳💐🌵
Nice footage!
Happy Birthday Leroy and I love the instant karma for running crossings gates especially when another train was coming
Bet they got a scolding from the cops
Ive seen stuff like 11:27 happen in person
It's beautiful
Way to go Leroy!!
The number of Darwins never ceases to amaze me, especially when you consider that 99.999% of crossings DON'T have cameras like these, yet we see them daily. And why feel the need to cross right in front of an Amtrak train? They take 10 seconds to pass! We've apparently made it too easy for dummies to survive; now they're actually lowering the bar below grade.
God i love fallen flags wish Chessie was still around loved the kitty on the logo
Happy birthday, Leroy! Thanks for all you do.
Question for VRF--when a car or engine goes by that's from a historical railroad or with a retired logo, sometimes there's a photo shown of what that car looked like when it was new. Is that photo of an actual train car or a model one? Edited to add: like the Sargento Cheese car at 4:40
That first scene looked bad! Looks like KCS bought the BNSF -9s. Maybe add dash cams in the locomotives for the Darwin awards!
11:13 That will teach them! 😂
@13:02 GTW! I SEE YOU!
Hello!
😊As far as Flagstaff goes, Google is showing multiple recent incidents and deaths between trains and motorists / pedestrians there. If the officer that stopped the gate runners was current with his role call sessions he would have been right to cite the two. A pedestrian was struck by a train there just 3 days after Christmas.
HB 75th Leroy
I love seeing Fallen Flags freight cars
I used to see a D&H hopper car running around
Whats with the blue NS locos? ex- Pan Ams?
also with the ex-BNSFs in KCS?
Oh I want that Sargento boxcar in HO! Heard that was painted out cause of some dispute?
Man 1 day somebody will lose bet on crossing in between trains with animals too not smart to do
Yeah, that guy at Revelstoke- did he even look to see if a train was coming on the other track? With the noise of the train idling and the bells of the crossing…These crazy risks seem to happen at the same places.
Reckon that Amtrak observation coach at Ashland @ 15:38 rolled through through NY-Penn?
Just curious about the old box and grain cars from places like coops, do they have to be inspected before UP or BNSF or CSX will permit them on their rails? Seems like,esp the grain coops, those cars sit idle for months before use.
8:39 That was NOT a boing! The Eagle caught a fish.
What did we do to get Two Grab Bag 😂👏🏽
15:22 Safety Patrol Special
11:15 😮
The Darwin candidates luck will run out eventually. Too bad for them.
Here's a question for VRF Administrator or operator. Yove installed camera locations in all 5 surroundings state's of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky, but NONE in West Virginia. A state thats contributed a heck of a lot to Railroading and building of this nation through Coal and Timber. Why hasn't a camera location been found here?? There are many good locations.
Recommend camera places here: virtualrailfan.com/
Calm down now! They will get you one soon enough buddy
@@Rob-tr1st can't read and understand simple English, huh?? Obviously, you're NOT an administrator or owner...so why did you feel the need to respond?? Oblivious??
Chriskent helio love you
After seeing the very blessed Darwins I just started crying for the two families that didn't make it ,gate runners they were , 2 died , 3 seriously injured. Please people nothing is worth dying for at a train crossing. down by Melbourne Florida.
The driver in Melbourne drove around gates that were down.
@@jamesghiorzoe107I KNOW THAT , they were impatient dumasses, that's why the city is asking the FEC rail road to put down 2 more gates so people cant drive around, if you read my comment you'd see that I said they were gate runners, why does every one think they have to correct what I said they were both at Melbourne same crossing.
