  • I shot for several days in North Platte around the Bailey Yard, including from the iconic Golden Spike Tower, and this is a long mix of great action! The number of locos is staggering, as are the variety and types of freight cars. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more UP content coming soon!

    Great video. Visited North Platte this summer and your video brings back memories of a great week's railfanning. Thanks!

    I love seeing all of those U P locos. I grew up in the western Rockies and to me railroads were U P.

    As a train lover and new railroad worker (Metro North Railroad) I would love to see Bailey Yard one day. That place is freaking MASSIVE. Metro North is a passenger railroad under the Metropolitan Transportation Authority or MTA for short and we operate in NY and CT.

    I didn't know North Platte had this main yard. My Grandpa worked for the U.P. in GI

    I find this rather relaxing to watch , however I guess for all those working there in the yard it's just well another boring day on the job. Lol.

    But can this yard accomodate kilometers long train cars?

    • @hw6420
      @hw6420  7 місяців тому

      If you mean can it store a 1000m train in one siding, then probably yes. But it depends if it’s being broken down for humping etc. or if it’s a unit-train passing through. Go on google maps and you can trace how long the longest tracks are if ir curious :)

      @@hw6420 I used to count the cars when a child and I remember counting 40+ cars which the yard accomodates. It is several kilometers long. But thinking of several kilometers of yard is hard. But who knows, there may be a yard of 10 km or so. 🤔

    Interesting and quite boring at the same time. Would be alot better If steam engines were there rather than diesels.

    On one hand..ooh trains! On the other hand...awww, not steam engines..
    I'm sorry, but diesel locomotives look like bricks on wheels. And they're all derivative of each other, no unique quirk that other engines don't have aside from a slightly better or worse acceleration time.
