#ChristopherNY: Appreciate the time you took to give us fans an inside look at the inner workings of these great locomotives. I'm from The Bronx, grew up near the Parkchester stop along the IRT#6 Line. I would occasionally see that work train you're on pass by my neighborhood. I keep forgetting that the track gauge allows your train access to both numbered AND lettered lines! Good way to help keep all lines functioning. Keep up the great work!❤
Wowwwwww What a Train, Crossing over the Williamsburg Bridge 🌉 hehe. Owwww. Dammmmm hehe. Are these locomotives a lot faster than the GE Ones. They seem to accelerate fast 💨 and extremely powerful hehe. That’d probably the longest freight train I’ve ever seen on a viaduct. You were having fun 🤩 hehe. The J Line is super fun 🤩 it’s a fun train ride.
Gentlemen please note .... ! This train is riding on rails , but in same time this train carry out what we call CWR rails , let me encrypted for you this shortcut ... CWR stays for Continuously Welded Rails ... ( and at this moments I will no go in details what that means ) NYCT is trying very hard to implements this idea It is for benefit of riders and for system as well , and it is very difficult task , I will say extremely difficult , In one of comments somebody ask if I was allowed to be on this train , my answer is - I don't know ? But please note , with out me this train will block service for hours , so what you think NYCT prefers , have Road Car Inspector / RCI / riding train to make sure if any emergency happen he can immediately react or have UA-cam'er viewers happy ????? Once again . Please enjoy the videos and If we have questions do not hesitated to ask , I'm more then happy to share my experience with you Lady's and Gentlemen , but please cut the BS
very good question .... a matter a fact , R 156 locomotive one you see in video are bigger and heavier then GE or Republic locomotives , R156 diesel is 114 000 lb of weights what give us around 55 metrics tones of weights . Old are around 40 tones of weights , secret is in trucks used for R 156 , they used Kawasaki R160 track what give us bigger span between axles , and less weights per axle in given distance
@@ChristopherNY R160 "trucks" (for those who didn't catch the context). Fabricated instead of cast steel leading per-axle weight savings and probably less unsprung weight as well, no?

Very Cool
I'm a little jealous 😅
Bro ...!!!
I'm jealous sometimes to myself 😁
how do you get away with no rider/spacer cars between locomotives? I thought they were the same weight as the older ones?
