Not only was I glued to this video but so was my 3 year old granddaughter ! Thanks for the entertainment and for her introduction to railroad videos. Fun having something we can do together!
Outstanding! The combination of your videography, the level of detail about what we're seeing and your enthusiasm is really captivating. Good job getting your new friend to join you in the signature signoff. Stay safe and have a great day.
Another excellent video Rowan. I really appreciate your efforts to ID trains and origin/destination. Does anyone know what material is transported in those containers at 2:51? Appears to be some liquid, but presumably it comes from overseas. Looks like a great way to relax on the 4th!
Very enjoyable video. This is one of my favorite train watching locations. I live a few miles away in Hagerstown, MD & often stop by the Junction for a day of action.
Thanks for this video!. Really made up for my first “official” railfanning day yesterday. I saw Zero (ok, 4 MARC trains..eh) on the CSX sub near me... train traffic can be a weird phenomenon. I’ve seen more trains going to the store some days. Haha. Finally got into it as a serious hobby after waiting 25 years.
Another great educational & entertaining video Rowan. Surprised to see the longer containers on top of the short ones? I would have thought the longer ones on the bottom for stability and balance. Oh well, just goes to show I do not know what I am doing 😅
At 11:36 NS 9650 and 9630 are leading an intermodal train. The day before this was filmed, I caught a train heading eastbound into PA from ohio with those 2 units on the front, and NS 4004 trailing 3rd.
I was surprised with the amount of traffic on a holiday. The exposed auto racks of the 70's had minimal graffiti unlike today. They were an open target for mischief, with rocks thrown at the cars and other vandalism issues.
I used to work for a dealership in the detailing and body shop. Closing the car also reduced pitting in the paint caused by, believe it or not, brake dust from the train's brakes.
If you ever have the chance I have 2 locations for you to visit in Ohio. They are really close to each other but still have tons of action(usually) all day long. The iron triangle railroad park in Fostoria Ohio and Railroad park in Deshler Ohio (the crossroads of the B&O RR). I have videos from both these locations if you would like to check them out just look at my Trains of Ohio Playlist
It’s great to see young people enjoying the great Hobby of Railfanning! You may have covered this before but what scanner and antenna do you use when watching? Thanks Stay Safe 😷😷
Hey Rowan! Just to let you know the train destinations for 2 of the trains are different stated in your video. Not to throw any hate or shame towards you lol. Q135 now I135, runs from Portsmouth Virginia to North Baltimore Ohio, and Q137 now I137, runs from Baltimore MD to Chicago Illinois. Just letting you know!
regarding the auto racks they did that also due to vandalism bricks dropped on new cars from over pass as the trains passed below. or braking into the cars and stealing parts. there was too much loss and damages caused during the transportation from the factory to dealer. the enclosed auto rack corrected that issue. those sets of cars to transport the autos are on a tight schedule for on time delivery for the customer.
What time did you leave because there are 4 more trains going eastbound witch is q415 q138 q372 and a coal train and there is two westbounds empty coal train and amtrak
I gotta ask how you get the info on these trains, I can never understand the symbols properly of their origin and destination. I just recently posted a mixed freight, I know it's either 153 or 154, just can't ever tell them apart though.
Not only was I glued to this video but so was my 3 year old granddaughter ! Thanks for the entertainment and for her introduction to railroad videos. Fun having something we can do together!
That's so cool, glad she likes it Jeff!!
This like watching a model train exhibit - come to life ! Cool spot to catch trains from different ways. Luv camera work and colors.
The auto rack... its gotta be the, "Official rail car of the state of Michigan." We're filthy with them here!
Great vids Rowan!!!
I loved rail fanning there! Last time I was there, NS had MOW cars parked on the interchange. Great to see it again. Thanks for posting.
Outstanding! The combination of your videography, the level of detail about what we're seeing and your enthusiasm is really captivating. Good job getting your new friend to join you in the signature signoff. Stay safe and have a great day.
I love including people in on the fun and the action, thanks for your continued support james!!
Actually going on my first ever Amtrak trip this weekend from Petersburg, Va to DC. I am really excited!
Love that NS goes OVER CSX! the way it should always be!
Hahahaa dang right
I remember when auto racks were totally open like the semis.
Glad to see 2 young guys taking up railfanning. Usually the foamers are age 50 or above !!!
Yo dude I was on the first car of train 30 that day I think I remember seeing you from out the window
Lol that's crazy awesome!!!
I saw the Norfolk Southern conrail haritage unit on a coal train on Paducah and Louisville railroad
Railfan rowen I caught csx q290 mixed freight today
Awesome catches Rowan! I love CSX's territory, keep up the good work
Wow! That looks like a late 13R! Great job!
I have a good friend that lives in Ranson WV. He was raised in Shenandoah Junction. Ranson isn't far down the road.
5:56 I feel bad that he is a yankees fan LMAO. Incredible video. I am going have to check out more of your videos
Rowan, I'm really fond of your enthusiasm for railroading.
Why thank you
That's a realy gorgeous backdrop to film trains. Good job.
Nice catches! Love the view of the bridge going over the tracks!
It's a great spot!!
Great Video, Rowan!! Good camera work, and nice catches make for a good one!
Thanks RLP!!
Awesome catches.
I saw the southern hertige last week but I was stuck at a red light on the way to my filming spot and I couldn’t get set up in time

Nice trains awesome videos stay safe god and Happy Foaming!!!!!!!
Very enjoyable video. This is one of my favorite train watching locations. I live a few miles away in Hagerstown, MD & often stop by the Junction for a day of action.
I love the way that NS crosses CSX there pretty cool video
Freight is Moving NO matter which Day of the Year it is. Goods needs to Received by Suppliers. 👍
Yep, 24/7/365
First train second unit used to be the chessie system emblem. It got toasted and the emblem was probably taken off.
Great day too railfan 😂 during 🦠

So glad I was able to inspire you!!
I have csx’s first Railroad spike that was hand forged in Jacksonville Florida
Gotta love that flange squeal
That outfit looks good on you, happy summertime Rowan, stay safe and keep well!
cool... reminds me of Dr. Seuss's Cat in the Hat.. hahaha...

This guy is taking over for stub ! Rip stub ! I miss your videos! This guy rocks!
RIP, thanks Mike
Digging the 4K train action. I live about an 1 1/2 away in Maryland. Thanks for the tip on the location. I'll have to check it out.
Very cool video!! The camera was worked very well. Nice pans and zoom outs!
Thank you!!
As always nice video you made stay safe god bless as always happy foaming
Nice video ... If I'm not mistaken the NS 13R originates in Binghamton, NY. and then goes to Enola, and Hagerstown
Enola is the symbols origin, a piece of the train itself might originate a New York
This is right near where I live!
Glad to meet your friend

Also to let you know there is another set of heritage units the union Pacific Heritage units hope you catch them all
Nice location, I've not seen it before! I like the twisty tracks! Keep em comin!
Me too, is why I set up there thanks for the support
I think the sides on the racks was more due to broken windows from thrown rocks.
That too, damage in general is more avoidable
One more heritage unit Rowan the unit is open central I have saw that on 200 leading
Great vid catches.
I love Shen! Was actually there 2 days later where I caught NS 911 on 13R
I Saw that same Norfolk southern railroad engine in brimingham alabama 41 years ago I didn't expect it to be in brimingham alabama
Hi Rowan. Love your hat lol 😂 You make great videos 🤣
Great videography keep up the great work i wish my dad could see all of your great work
Thanks Steven!
Nice video dude This is a great video right there you should try bound brook Nj station for railfanning it’s a good spot like that one
Sweet! I was about 20 mins west of there that day.
Dang man, what spot?
Great catches Rowan i actually may be going to Shenandoah junction next week if all goes well!
Thanks railfan Rowan happy 4th of July to you too
Good spot to video! Thanks for sharing!
I love it, you're welcome

Great catch Rowan.
4:32 i saw that same train a few days ago.

cool content
Believe it or not Rowan I see a lot of CSX trains leave from Charleston SC on a daily basis.
I believe it
@@RailfanRowan a majority of the consists are the auto haulers. But there is also mixed freight too.
nice video
Thanks for that, well done!
You're welcome!
Very good video!
Good luck
Can I just say that I love your hat! (: Happy Birthday America ❤🇺🇸💙
Thank you, I love it too 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Nice job.
I wanted to visit that place one day with y'all
Rmyeah it's a lot of fun
It’s great to see young people enjoying the great Hobby of Railfanning! You may have covered this before but what scanner and antenna do you use when watching? Thanks Stay Safe 😷😷
Thanks, please check my account
Railfan Rowan hi I checked your about account and don’t see the answer.

Hey Rowan! Just to let you know the train destinations for 2 of the trains are different stated in your video. Not to throw any hate or shame towards you lol. Q135 now I135, runs from Portsmouth Virginia to North Baltimore Ohio, and Q137 now I137, runs from Baltimore MD to Chicago Illinois. Just letting you know!
Man an all auto rack train don’t see that much
regarding the auto racks they did that also due to vandalism bricks dropped
on new cars from over pass as the trains passed below. or braking into the
cars and stealing parts. there was too much loss and damages caused during
the transportation from the factory to dealer. the enclosed auto rack corrected
that issue. those sets of cars to transport the autos are on a tight schedule
for on time delivery for the customer.
Yes all very true!
Always curious where freight trains originate and end.
Rowan I really want to meet you and go railfanning together, overall great video and happy filming!!
Thanks Jacob, maybe one day!!
Loved the video
Those long containers balanced on top of the shorter ones always look slightly disconcerting to me.
Remember there is 21 ns heritage units
Awesome
Yay a new video greate video
I have csx trains 40 miles away from me
Cool video
Thanks Cam
Was the Q-137 Single Stack Containers because of height limitations with Tunnels ? Thanks! 👍
Correct, good guess!!
I have ONE silly question.... What's a "Foamer" and where did that come from? :P
Foamer is someone who foams at the mouth over trains, a term of bullying that has become a personal term of endearment
Started by railroad employees
Not much csx in rowan video
How is your day going today railfan Rowan
Do you know how many vehicles fit in one Auto Rack car?
That’s cool
I'm from near Gaithersburg
How do you know when and what is coming?
I literally said that next train after q137 is probably q217 and I was right
What's a foamer (foama?)
What is the name of radio for RR listing
What time did you leave because there are 4 more trains going eastbound witch is q415 q138 q372 and a coal train and there is two westbounds empty coal train and amtrak
I left around 3-4
@@RailfanRowan those train start to come at 430-5
Hello other Foamer!
2nd comment Great video Rowan.

A little help from friends, but there are resources in the descriptions
@@RailfanRowan I see. That does help, thanks.
