Thank You for making your wonderful videos. I started watching your videos my Jr year of high School. And your videos encouraged me to work for the railroad. Which I did, I started as an NS Conductor in 2015, was promoted at Engineer in 2019 and now in 2022. I'm continuing my railroad career as a Amtrak engineer. If it wasn't for your videos, I don't know if I would be in the position I am today. Thank You!
Wow! Thanks so much, TrainGuy. You're bringing tears to my eyes. I never though these little videos that make would ever have that kind of impact on anyone, especially in their career. As you are learning, enjoying your work is important for success. Congratulations...and thanks again.
Welcome to the family! I saw your comment and I am also an Amtrak Engineer out of Toledo, but started my career in Denver. Be safe out there, my friend!
Awesome job Danny! Glad I found your channel and got back into railfanning last year. It has been a pleasure emailing you. I hope to meet you at the Folkston Railwatch. You have the perfect voice for videos. I hope to see you up in my home state again soon up north! Can’t wait for the journey to come from your channel this year! Keep up the awesome work. - Carter
He's a professional radio announcer so he's well trained as well as having a great voice. Best narrator of railfan videos that I've found on UA-cam. I'm glad he's passed the 100K subscriber milestone.
Excellent video Danny, great you caught two Ethanol trains back to back. Also nice to learn the A and S line designation on the signal bungalows! See ‘em all the time and never realized it,
Danny, you are the super detail wizard. The information you give takes trainspotting ( railfanning ) to a stratospheric level. thanks for your efforts. very best wishes
So much safety information for me. Massive amount of weight on these rails is mind blowing. Speed and sound. Even how much the ground shakes. When coal train pass by. Thanks for the video Great work.
I've got a sign just like that hanging in my garage, only mine says S.C.L. R.R. PROPERTY NO TRESPASSING. Mine came from a crossing that CSX closed just south of Rocky Mount at Sharpsburg. It was tossed onto a trash pile, I saw it and "appropriated" it. Another great video Danny, you've got the best content on here.
All your vids are great and fun to watch. The way you narrate the vids makes them much more interesting and informative. Much more enjoyable than just watching trains roll past! Thanks!
Just wanted to say thank you for helping me rediscover the interest in trains I had when I was little. Because of this, I recently started the planning stages of making a documentary about Rail fans plus some other projects. .
Danny you are the reason I got into Railfanning. I really appreciate your videos happy 100,000 subs just know all of your viewers including me really appreciate you.
Danny, I love watching your videos. For me as an European/German railfan it's very interesting to see how you guys do railfanning in the US. And I have to say that you talk so clearly, that's why I'm able to understand almost everything from you. :) I like the most when you are chasing the trains and when you show us the whole day of your trip, including having lunch and driving around. Best wishes from Germany Bjoern
Hey Danny. Really enjoyed the video. Great job! I am in Bostic, NC near the old Clinchfield line. Been a railfan since before I could talk. Even remember sitting on my Daddy's lap behind the steering wheel (before safety was a thing), at the Bostic Clinchfield yard watching the trains come through. Many times the friendly train staff would invite us on board to let me look out the cab window. Miss those days. I used to do the same for my nieces and nephew. But 9/11 changed everything. Thanks again and God speed!.
Your videos make me home sick for Ocala Wildwood area, many family and lifelong friends there. I remember seeing purple ACL passenger trains between Ocala and Candler down through Weirsdale and Leesburg, early 60’s. I live in south central Texas, UP here. Great videos Danny.
We got to see Union Pacific’s Big Boy earlier this summer when she came through Southwestern Illinois. There is something so special and cool about a Steam Train. Thanks for the great videos!
Danny those double yellow signals on CSX are approach diverging signals out west on our railroad, it's the last signal you'll see before you approach a siding or crossovers!
yeah CSX does things differently than the railroads out west. You also use Block signalling while CSX uses speed signaling. If you saw the one signal there showing yellow over green, that means the same as your approach diverging for us, but the key difference is it also has a speed restriction. Approach Medium - Approach the next signal not exceeding medium speed. (30 MPH)
Another fabulous video. Thank you so much for going out and taping the trains and explaining things as you go. I think I've learned more about how trains operate by watching and listening to your videos that I have in any other option that I've had. Thank you again for putting in the time, I for one really appreciate it… Bye for now
Great job! Your filming in Polk County my home county brings back memories of my childhood. Thank you as always for your excellent presentations! Happy New Year!
Danny, it is a pleasure to be a part of the 100k subscribers. You had a lot intel on the block signals and several segments changing aspects from yellow to green and dropping to red. I always enjoy this in your videos. It is an educational experience watching "Distant Signal". Thanks Danny and Happy New Year!
Cheers to you and 100K! You are the standard and raise the bar for all others to follow! I still love the opening signal knock down! Keep up the great work, Sir!
Thanks DH, I also am a DH, Daniel Hoffman, Love your videos! My farther in-law Was a railroad men! And I've always wished I could have been! Thanks again, Dan
Danny, I want to thank you for all the hours my husband Gil enjoyed watching Distant Signal. He went to be with the Lord December 27th. He got me hooked and I will still be watching. Congrats on 100K! Dee
Congratulations 👏👏👏 DANNY ....BE SURE TO INCLUDE IN A "Distant signal " update....film opening your "YOU TUBE 100,000 WALL HANGING....ARE YOU GOING TO HANG IT "On your fence of signs....or in your den at home....nice job "UNCLE DAN ...OUT.."..Thank you for taking us all to watch "THE SIGNAL DROP"....Was a Engineer on a tourist Railway for 18 years "ANACORTES RAILWAY ",,, NOW IN LINCOLN CALF 😀,,,, YOU MEET THE NEATEST PEOPLE IN RAILWAY BUSINESS....GLAD DISTANT SIGNAL 😀 CONTINUE THIS TRADITION 👍
Congratulations on hitting 100K! Huge accomplishment!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I’m watching videos while my husband drives and I just showed him what I was watching and he saw your Seaboard sign right off the bat! 😃🚂
Really enjoying your videos, sir. As a kid, I always made my grandparents take me to the train tracks in Titusville, FL when I was visiting them... Fast forward 25+ years, and now I find myself logging the train times in my little town of Winder, GA. I can hear them from the house. I also have a set of tracks parallel to my hunting properties outer most trail and hwy 278 in Crawfordville GA... the guys all tease me when at anytime of the day or night, when I hear the train coming, I load up on my 4 wheeler and boogie towards the tracks to catch him (as long as I'm not in a stand of course). I've never "rail fanned" the way you do, but I feel like buying a radio and a camera to keep in my camper. LOL! Thanks for the entertainment, Danny!
HI Nick! Thanks for the compliments. I've heard that Winder and your area are great railfanning country. I may give you a shout next time I'm in North GA.
@@distantsignal That would be great, Danny! Would love to meet you and see how the pros do it! There is neat little caboose museum right along the tracks that would serve as a good watching platform.
Congratulations Danny on 100,000 subscribers! There is no other UA-camr that offers the quality and professionalism that you do Danny. Thank you for providing this great content to us rail fans.
I have watched many videos of trains but your videos are by far the best in my opinion. you are an educator and explain many aspects of CSX operations I did not know. I live in the Villages and see many trains coming thru Wildwood. The other day I observed and northbound phosphate train that I learned about from one of your videos, may have been an old one about the orange juice train. love your work!
I just found your channel and have to tell you that I think it's 1st rate. Very nice camera work and editing and your narration is quite good as well. Thanks Ken Herrick
I've always liked trains starting as a youngster when each line had their own passenger trains and freights weren't nearly so long and always with a caboose. I've never been a student of railroading so thanks for the visual lessons. Much appreciated, Thanks, Danny
Excellent job, Danny Harmon. You are the best. Your videos are always very informative and educational. I learn a little more each time. Can watch them all day😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Super video Danny. Here in the UK it's the middle of winter so to see your exploits in sunny Florida brought a little brightness to my day. Well done 🤓 stay safe 💙
Amazing Catches Danny! I started watching you in 2nd grade and now I'm in 6th! I couldn't thank you more for encouraging to get outside more and watch more trains.
I watch one of your videos today I have subscribed and you are reminding me of a narrator that I remembered on a video I watched as a child if you haven't done any narration work you really need to I mean you're up there with Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs in my book!
Congrats on the 100K!. Indeed a special accomplishment, Thanks again for railfanning for us all. Nice to see the trains and you get some awesome history in there too!. Happy New Year!
No other rail UA-camrs explain the details as well as you do. No wonder you’re at 100K. If I were guessing, I’d say you have been in the rail business for years. I’d appreciate knowing about your background. BTW, fantastic job.
Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers and another awesome video and I hope you had an awesome 2022 New Year and please stay safe to you and to wife Lizz Harmon! @Distant Signal aka Danny Harmon and awesome catches!
Love your videos. You do such a great job hunting trains. I would love to go to Florida just to watch the trains. I have always loved watching trains and your channel makes it easier to watch unique trains and get the feeling of being there in person watching them. Keep up the amazing work
@@distantsignal Sir, It’s always a pleasure to watch you from here in the UK! So very enjoyable and to see some of the food you get as well always makes me hungry, no matter time of day or even if I have already eaten!
Congratulations on the 100.000 subscribers Danny and thanks for all of the new information about one of my favorite places to rail-fan when i'm down in your beautiful state. "HAPPY NEW YEAR"
For someone who had no idea what he was going to video....... you did very well, thanks for another great video.
that voice should win a marconi award. knowledge and delivery make him a national treasure.
They say you should spend New Year's Day doing what you want to do all year. Looks like you set yourself up for a good one.
"My friend used to have an unkind name for the problem, which I cannot repeat here" Oh, Danny, you had me laughing at that bit! Congrats on 100k.

No, we want to thank u Mr Harmon for giving us years of awesome train vids and info
I like danny explaining how he makes every railfan day an adventure. Always different. Always something else to see
Excellent video Danny, great you caught two Ethanol trains back to back. Also nice to learn the A and S line designation on the signal bungalows! See ‘em all the time and never realized it,

Congratulations Danny, 100,000 rail fans will exceptional taste. Look forward as always to our next adventure. Happy New Year !
Danny, I hope the large railroad companies realize the high value that you have brought to the railroad industry!
The second danny uploads, its always 1st on my recommended list :)
Math makes me smile the same as a train whistle. I blush. I cant do math very well, so im impressed at the formula!
I wish I did some rail-fanning when I lived in Florida.
Guess my interest developed late.
Thanks for the videos.
I've got a sign just like that hanging in my garage, only mine says S.C.L. R.R. PROPERTY NO TRESPASSING. Mine came from a crossing that CSX closed just south of Rocky Mount at Sharpsburg. It was tossed onto a trash pile, I saw it and "appropriated" it. Another great video Danny, you've got the best content on here.
Hey Danny! You are a Class Act and are in a Small Group of Top Railfan Channels. True Professional. Thanks & Congratulations! 👍
Great job, Danny! I appreciate your professionalism and knowledge of America’s railroads. Keep up the great work! 👍🏼

I would hope _the trains_ are the reason you got into railfanning! ;-)
@@jovetj a combination of both
My Father, Grandfather and Uncle worked for the original SAL and through several mergers. Thank you for the wonderful videos.
Thank you Tim. Glad you've enjoyed them.
Danny, I love watching your videos. For me as an European/German railfan it's very interesting to see how you guys do railfanning in the US.
And I have to say that you talk so clearly, that's why I'm able to understand almost everything from you. :)
