    The amtrak engineer must've been surprised when he was told he would be pulling the final Ringling Bros. circus train that day.

    An Amtrak freight train! How fascinating.

    I remember going to the circus when I was really young. They held right across from the San Jose Diridon Station. Sad that it will escape into history without even making it out to the Bay Area for one last run.

      I went to the circus too when I was young. A memory of it that still stays with me today was when I saw countless clowns getting out of a Volkswagon Beetle.

    How I envy you for being on the east coast! The circus train didn't even get out to Colorado this year, and now it never will again.

    At the beginning, I wondered how the train could possibly require two of the most powerful locomotive in the US, the ACS-64. But, wow! I counted approximately 36 coaches and 24 freight cars. 12,800 hp should do.

    • @henrikvtcodes
      @henrikvtcodes 2 роки тому +2

      it's closer to 17,200hp total because the "64" in the name refers to 6,400kW, or about 8,600hp. Definitely one of the highest-powered freight consists in the US.

    nice video. I wish I would have known it was going down the NEC I would have gone to 30th street or cornwells heights to film it. oh well guess I have to watch for the James e strates train.

    Christ look at the speed on that. Didn't even know they make 'em that quick.
    But to be serious, pretty nice sound those ACS-64s make.

    Railer, I have a question for you and it's since the elephants went to Florida, what kind of animals do the animal cars carry since the Elephants left the show up until Ringling's final days?

    Was the load too heavy for the acs-64? For a second I thought the other ACS-64 was 601. Which would be impossible.

    • @apr859
      @apr859 4 роки тому

      The ACS-64 has over 8,000 horsepower

    • @joeykidd8916
      @joeykidd8916 2 роки тому

      almost. the ACS-64 doesn't have much tractive effort, so it was quite a struggle. IMO if amtrak kept a few E60s for work trains and the like, they'd be better off for moves like this.

    Won't it have to go back to Florida to be auctioned? In other words will there be a chance to see the consist again on the NEC, even if it isn't a circus train anymore?

    @algorithm1193 6 років тому +1

    Then the LIRR used those old, dirty switchers to pull it to the barn. Why couldn't they at least give it the dignity of DE/DM30AC power?
    Fucking A, the barn saw the end of two eras on Long Island, the Islanders and the circus.

    The fact that they only used two ACS’ Is insane
