I live in Northeastern Indiana, but I grew up in Richmond, VA which is near Ashland. My aunt had a farm near Ashland. My mother and I used to take trains to and from Ashland to visit my aunt in the summertime. The tracks in Ashland are the old Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac lines of Civil War fame. They are the main North/South rail lines on the East Coast. We used to board trains from the station that was right by the tracks in the middle of town. I don't know if the station is still there. One of my many early memories of these tracks was a time when I saw some diesels pulling a line of rusting steam engines to meet their fate. This video brings back many railroad memories. Thank you for that.
Wife's account and not her opinions Awesome to see this we moved to Florida but we were from Rappahannock County VA west of Fredericksburg and spent many days in Ashland just to see the street running your video brought back many happy memories love your content I grew up in Chicago and remember Milwaukee Road and Chicago Northwestern IC North Shore South Shore and many now merged or defunked railways thank you for your hard work really appreciate it oh almost forgot the SP Daylight when it was the Freedom Train in 1976 was unforgetable
Mary and I rode the Amtrak from Florence SC to Richmond VA. Took a cab to Ashland, because of train scheduling, and stayed at the Inn in behind the train station. Our first and as yet only train travel/fanning trip. Cant say I'm in love with the travel but we did enjoy a lot of it. Ashland was a hoot!
Great video, love the Passenger Cars. My wife and I have taken the Amtrak from Connellsville Pennsylvania to Harper's Ferry West Virginia a few times. At that time, due to track conditions, there were slow areas in travelling (track maintenance going on), but it would speed up nicely much of the time. But we were going to stay at the HillTop Hotel in Harper's Ferry (the Hotel is now gone), so even the slower moments were just more time on the train, what's to complain? The food was great, in the dining car, we were seated with strangers, after all, it's not a restaurant. But again, the food was worth it. The observation car was full length, and at night, when there wasn't much to see, in the observation car, they'd play movies, and they seemed like recently released ones, or ones still in the theater. Fun stuff. Still figuring to go to Reno Nevada one day on the Amtrak, we have relatives there. Thanks again, great show.
Cool video Brian. I believe Virtual Railfan has cameras set up in Adhland VA and you can see how often the freights and Amtrak pass by during the course of the day.
Great catch! After all these years I finally got a couple vids of this train! Of course, I'll never see it running down the middle of the street haha 🤣🤣
YESS!! LIVE AMTRAK ACTION!! I love the sounds of the engine! Roooosh! haha! Glad to see the ambulance make it across! Enjoyed the street running AMTRAK! Saved to my locomotives playlist! Thanks for sharing!!
Another awesome video Jawtooth -you and your buddy millenium force sure get around ! Ash land always looks good for train watching ! That sure is one loooong Amtrack tho ! Regards
Longest passenger train in the UK is the overnight sleeper train from London Euston to Inverness/Fort William/Aberdeen. It leaves Euston with 16 coaches and splits into three portions in Edinburgh.
Ashland sure is a hot spot for trains. The auto train must be very successful with a consist like that. Here in the Poconos we have nothing. It used to be a big rail hub, but not anymore.
Well, this is a first, a single leveled Amtrak train.. with the baggage car at the end instead of behind the locomotive at 4:55. Anyway, another award-winning railroad video Jawtooth! 😁 Tony 59-year-old Black Air Force VET 🇺🇸
Florida trains often have the baggage car on the rear when heading North. And as Hialeah was the maintenance base for them when new, there often were more than one baggage car on a train.
Nice video of railroad street running but I wish it was the old school railroad street running where the rails are embedded in the tracks without the roadbed all the way out. But this is still great and love all of the Amtrak passenger trains, really cool.
Yes, on Williams Street just like in Ashland. I really want to film some trains there, hopefully in the summer. I think that is RJ Corman Railroad. Is that right?
Jaw Tooth you should go to kings island on May 2nd me and the lukancic band play there you should go to see that and to chill meet me all of that I depart my school at around 6am on May 1st I go back to my school on the 3rd of May so the 2nd we have fun at kings island besides playing there on this trip please go for the oh wait there’s more I can do it you can meet me during that you should make a video when you see me there thanks Phil Kirman AKA rocky fanatic 68
Millennium is great. I wish I was younger and healthy and could travel like they do. I tell everyone now, do everything while you are young, while you can. Don't put anything off You never know when you are going to get sick and be bed ridden I can't do anything now All I have is UA-cam
The no left turn connected to the crossing stanchion is unique and rare. Glad you got it on film. P42 Genysis. "Genisys, Genisys is planet forbidden NO!" Quote Star Trek, all rights reserved.
Looks like the "take your car, too!" train that runs between DC and Florida. There's a good video on YT that shows how they load cars onto the train cars.
@Jawtooth Just so you'll know, I've decided to start a RR channel for real and model railroading. Just wanted you to know my new screen name. PS: Ironically, Meigs County is the only county in Tennessee that does not have any railroad tracks.
As a regular on the Ashland webcam, I can fill you in on all the Amtrak trains: Long Distance: Auto Train Palmetto Silver Star (nicknamed Silver Starvation due to its lack of a dining car) Silver Meteor All these trains do not stop in Ashland Northeast Regional, which do stop in Ashland: 3 Northbound and 1 Southbound in the morning 3 Southbound and 1 Northbound in the evening The evening northbound I've nicknamed "The Midnight Train" as it arrives in Boston after Midnight, and is usually the last Northeast Regional of the night. Also, the 'regulars' of the Ashland webcam have a daily 'wager' on the consist of Amtrak #53, the Southbound Auto Train. Winner gets a virtual cookie. The longest the train can be is 3/17/33, 3 locomotives, 17 superliners, 33 auto racks.

Excellent Jawtooth! However, near the end...your youthful assistant announcing “There’s more” ....just goes to show that you also need a tripod too...so you can make announcements without the ‘floating, detached head’ effect that the ‘selfie’ produces! We’d get a complete view of Jawtooth then. I wish I could join you on your trips...they’re great....but my travelling days are over. Keep up your excellent work...much appreciated! Rob, in Bournemouth, England.
Wow. You should have checked it out pre SCL early 60s. RF&P. Trains every 10 minutes during the winter. Multiple sections of Champion,Florida Special ,Silver Meteror,Star ,freights. It was a train watchers paradise.
Took one of those trains from DC to Richmond (and back) last year. Pretty town. Nice college campus. Funny to see them from the passenger seat of a train, though. Guess if you live there you get used to it. Thanks.
Funnily enough I’ve been looking in on the Ashland live cams recently on Virtual Railfan’s UA-cam channel. What a great railfanning place and Jaw Tooth - this is a great video - very well done. The filming of the night time freight in the crossing street lights - looks great. Really enjoyed it.
You got AMTK 203 leading on one train, I got 203 on the Empire Builder earlier this year but not as a leader. Of the 3 Amtrak trains I've got on video only 1 had a Amtrak leader (other 2 had BNSF leaders) and that one was AMTK 156 40th Anv. Phase I unit.
thats the cow girl biker. im always seeing her in the video especially on the live stream 24 hr amtrak raillroad stream for ashland. she loves riding in the town.
At least you've got some decent weather down there; here in Goshen, Indiana, the day started out with temps in the mid 50s, but dropping twenty degrees since then to 36 degrees & rain right now.
A little over a year ago I was in Goshen Indiana and filmed Amtrak. I still need to put that video together. I like that little spur that goes to an area of railroad tie piles
How about the South Shoreline in Northwest Indiana? In Michigan City, the Southshore line goes street running. But the Southshore line could change where the tracks run through inside of streets in Michigan City. According to the news.
Like your videos. We know, that when you record your videos, that they're live when you video them. But, unless you're broadcasting live, everything WE see, has been pre recorded. We know that. We do treat every video we see of yours, as news worthy, to some. We thank you.
First time seeing eighteen Superliners on the AT. I had read a few years ago (TRAINS, 1/2015) that Amtrak had upgraded the A-T's Superliners with LED lighting to save power so the HEP could accomodate a 17th car. Must've saved more power than I initially heard. This is right after I completed a project to retrofit my O-Gauge Superliners with LED lights so I could run a model of this train--at the time, 9 Superliners and 12 autoracks--but now I have enough equipment to run 10-12 Superliners and 21 autoracks. After five years, I still have the only video on UA-cam of a model Amtrak Auto-Train in O-Gauge :)
There have been days in the winter when they exceeded that number. Longest one I've been on had a total of 45 cars. And had 3 locos. We did not waste any time on that trip although the fuel stop in Florence was a little bit longer than normal.They could run 30+ passenger cars if needed but it would tie up a third loco just for the HEP. Don't think the FRA would look too kindly upon it providing motive power on the rear although I have ridden on a passenger train with two Amtrak locos on the front and a MRL SD-40 on the rear pushing.
Hi Jaw Tooth - happy new year!. Nice to see some passenger trains. After watching a lot of your videos I think that it is 90% impossible to stand and film next to any USA railroad for more than a few hours without it raining.
You were filming on the CSX RF&P Subdivision. The intersection you were on was South Railroad Avenue and Myrtle. The FRA crossing data is 860454W. Thanks for sharing.
We have been to Ashland and stayed in a home that was right next to the train tracks. The first night we stayed, a train went by at night, the house shook, we thought the train was coming through the house. Really scary.
I take it they don't have a " U Turn" problem in Ashland with those trains in the middle of a dual carriage way, love that live action as does the local folks ! 😎👍👌
I am surprised that US train stations don't have some sort of canopy that covers from the passenger bulding till the edge of the platform. Passengers are forced to get wet in rainy days, and this can be a nuisance if you're traveling with heavy baggage.
Your comment reminded me of a 'novelty' song popular in 1950's or 60's titled "The Railroad Runs Through the Middle of the House". Can't remember the singer though, but was hilarious to kids in those days.
It would be awesome to live in such a place, where so many trains could be seen each day. That was fabulous.
Thanks for watching !
I can’t believe I found this video. This is my hometown. I’ve lived here all my life. A great place to live.
Very cool! I have more videos from Ashland and I have a street running playlist you might like

I swear I can feel the vibrations when those trains go by.
Ashland is a rail fans Dream. There’s a great web cam located on top of the station. Thanks JT
Virtual railfan Ashland!
My father has taken that train,he takes it every year to Florida and back in the winters
Love the rail fans sitting on the sidewalk❤️❤️❤️
I like watching trains at night.

Mary and I rode the Amtrak from Florence SC to Richmond VA. Took a cab to Ashland, because of train scheduling, and stayed at the Inn in behind the train station. Our first and as yet only train travel/fanning trip. Cant say I'm in love with the travel but we did enjoy a lot of it. Ashland was a hoot!
Great video, love the Passenger Cars. My wife and I have taken the Amtrak from Connellsville Pennsylvania to Harper's Ferry West Virginia a few times. At that time, due to track conditions, there were slow areas in travelling (track maintenance going on), but it would speed up nicely much of the time. But we were going to stay at the HillTop Hotel in Harper's Ferry (the Hotel is now gone), so even the slower moments were just more time on the train, what's to complain? The food was great, in the dining car, we were seated with strangers, after all, it's not a restaurant. But again, the food was worth it. The observation car was full length, and at night, when there wasn't much to see, in the observation car, they'd play movies, and they seemed like recently released ones, or ones still in the theater. Fun stuff. Still figuring to go to Reno Nevada one day on the Amtrak, we have relatives there. Thanks again, great show.
Thanks for watching !
Cool video Brian. I believe Virtual Railfan has cameras set up in Adhland VA and you can see how often the freights and Amtrak pass by during the course of the day.
It’s also one of Amtrak’s few profitable routes
Great catch! After all these years I finally got a couple vids of this train! Of course, I'll never see it running down the middle of the street haha 🤣🤣
YESS!! LIVE AMTRAK ACTION!! I love the sounds of the engine! Roooosh! haha! Glad to see the ambulance make it across! Enjoyed the street running AMTRAK! Saved to my locomotives playlist! Thanks for sharing!!

@@JawTooth Good.. I see! Lots of Amtrak fans out there!
There’s Kenny! I talked to him last time we were there. Live Action Son!!
And there’s Millenniumforce too!
Woooooooooo!

That’s a cool location to film trains!
It gives a lot of dramatic appeal to see the approaching locos coming right down a ‘Main Street’!
Well, this is a first, a single leveled Amtrak train.. with the baggage car at the end instead of behind the locomotive at 4:55.
Anyway, another award-winning railroad video Jawtooth! 😁

Awesome!! I just recorded my 1st 2 trains on April 1st 2022!!!
A very long Amtrak Auto and Central Florida Sun Rail.
Thanks for the dedication to videoing in the rain> Great show - Thank you
Millennium Force is definitely a Force to be Reckoned with! 😬 👍
At first I thought the gal @ 5:38 wanted to see your caboose... live action.. ! Then I saw her husband.. yer such a beast Jaw!
I love your videos buddy. I used to live in the U.S. I love the country. And, I am fond of trains and rail tracks! Keep uploading more videos.
My town in Clearfield, PA has tracks running downtown, right in the middle of the road.
Yes, on Williams Street just like in Ashland. I really want to film some trains there, hopefully in the summer. I think that is RJ Corman Railroad. Is that right?
I love that.
I live there I'll help you film what day suits you mate
Jaw Tooth you should go to kings island on May 2nd me and the lukancic band play there you should go to see that and to chill meet me all of that I depart my school at around 6am on May 1st I go back to my school on the 3rd of May so the 2nd we have fun at kings island besides playing there on this trip please go for the oh wait there’s more I can do it you can meet me during that you should make a video when you see me there thanks

In Larange Kentucky the tracks run down the middle,a short hop from Louisville ✌
I realized I may have a UA-cam train problem when I recognized Millennium Force in the intro.
lolol same!
Millennium is great. I wish I was younger and healthy and could travel like they do.
I tell everyone now, do everything while you are young, while you can.
Don't put anything off
You never know when you are going to get sick and be bed ridden
I can't do anything now
All I have is UA-cam
Me too. LOL
Your Amtrak Station video reminds of years gone by at night the Amtrak Station in San Diego, CA
What a beautiful place to live. A train lover's dream. Fantastic video !!!!!
JT is recognized by fans. Nice!
Asland Virginia Amtrak train CSX freight train hauling everything that's cool jaw tooth bless you my friend awesome week
I love the classic crossing bell. Also the classic SD horns.
You’re Spot on as Always
Well it's a first again for you Jaw Tooth Amtrak auto racks. Can honestly say I have never seen those before..nice video!

That Auto train is just amazing!
As a regular on the Ashland webcam, I can fill you in on all the Amtrak trains:
Long Distance:
Auto Train
Palmetto
Silver Star (nicknamed Silver Starvation due to its lack of a dining car)
Silver Meteor
All these trains do not stop in Ashland
Northeast Regional, which do stop in Ashland:
3 Northbound and 1 Southbound in the morning
3 Southbound and 1 Northbound in the evening
The evening northbound I've nicknamed "The Midnight Train" as it arrives in Boston after Midnight, and is usually the last Northeast Regional of the night.

I find it interesting that Amtrack cars are never marked up with graffiti.
Thankfully lol
At one time the mayor of Ashland, VA proclaimed it to be the Center of the UNIVERSE. Works for me!

Awesome Video Jaw Tooth
👍👍🇮🇳
It's pretty neat how you really see the sand nozzles in the night views of the Amtrak engine.
MORE Amtrak videos please! I like Amtrak too! Just like being a caboose fan... Same with Amtrak. They are so FAST & POWERFUL!
Great video jaw tooth live action I love that term God bless

18 passenger cars,31 auto racks, and 2 locomotives.But not necessarily in that order.Lots fo CSX cars on that manifest.Thanks Brian.
I love this amtrack longest passenger train video a lot
Thanks!
There used to be an Amtrak Auto Train from Louisville, Kentucky to Florida we took back in the early 70s to go to Disney World when it first opened.
Another interesting video thumbs up as usual I did notice on the auto train that it had no view liners?
Hello Jaw ,Amtrak in profusion ,it changes ,very very good , my friend .
Awesome shots ! 👍

Another Jawtooth video with rain and trains.
The train that stopped at Ashland @12:30 looked like all the cars were empty. How sad. :(
Wow 51 cars! That’s amazing! Also I like those classic P42 engines
And P40DC'S 😁
Oh thanks! I forgot about the P40DCs
Why are passenger engines different than the ones used for freight?
@@mikepottle6647 Passenger engines are geared to run at high speeds. For example, 79-110 mph. Freight trains run at slower speeds such as 35-65 mph.
There different becuase passenger trains carry people and fright trains carry goods like food and logs
Excellent video as always
Thanks again!
Hi Jaw Tooth - happy new year!. Nice to see some passenger trains. After watching a lot of your videos I think that it is 90% impossible to stand and film next to any USA railroad for more than a few hours without it raining.
Happy New Year Jeremy! I filmed today and once again it was raining.
@@JawTooth Look forward to seeing some more of your train in the rain videos in 2020
Fantastic. More please from UK. Keep em coming.
Thanks, will do!
Great Video!!! 👍🏼👍🏼
I'm a train and I approve this video!
You make awesome videos.

Never got into classifying of terminology of railroading, can see a point of interest. Another Great job.
You were filming on the CSX RF&P Subdivision. The intersection you were on was South Railroad Avenue and Myrtle. The FRA crossing data is 860454W. Thanks for sharing.
Cool video 👍
This was a great video jaw tooth and I am very early
We have been to Ashland and stayed in a home that was right next to the train tracks. The first night we stayed, a train went by at night, the house shook, we thought the train was coming through the house. Really scary.
We used to have something similar here in the UK called Motorail. It got axed in the mid 90s
#8 no train but i do enjoy your videos and counting the cars You have great videos and your commentary
I take it they don't have a " U Turn" problem in Ashland with those trains in the middle of a dual carriage way, love that live action as does the local folks !
😎👍👌
Good point
Wow I live in Florida yay good videos
Do you stay out all day (and night) videoing?
You found the gold mine for long trains with this one. I almost fell asleep watching the mixed freight train. Thanks Jaw Tooth. I enjoyed it
Nice! Have you yet to come film the I&O in mason also have u done a update on kilby rd?
I am surprised that US train stations don't have some sort of canopy that covers from the passenger bulding till the edge of the platform. Passengers are forced to get wet in rainy days, and this can be a nuisance if you're traveling with heavy baggage.
Go to emporia Virginia on Halifax street off Atlantic street of interstate 95 and highway 301.csx and Amtrak trains traffic
That does look like a great place to railfan. It looks like they took part of the diamond out though. Then North/south line looks busy
It is very busy Jaw Tooth! I live ten minutes away from Emporia in North Carolina and I live by that same line. It’s hardly a dull moment.
One time I passed a house that had train tracks in their drive way . Now that’s crazy
Where is it
If those tracks are active, I would not advise to park your vehicle in that driveway. Maybe those rails were taken out of service a while ago.
Your comment reminded me of a 'novelty' song popular in 1950's or 60's titled "The Railroad Runs Through the Middle of the House". Can't remember the singer though, but was hilarious to kids in those days.
@@dennispersson9466 There's a Twilight Zone movie episode with a similar theme.
