[@Alco16-251F]

I saw NS 14R in PA in 2018, and It has CSX #604!

[@GaithersburgRail]

Nice catch. I caught that 697 leading L415 last year.

[@PortaldosTrilhos]

Show !!! bela troca de equipagem ...

[@davidng2336]

A sight that can no longer be seen now that CSX got rid of their AC6000CWs

[@hakeemsd70m]

And their 60 Series EMD's have bit the dust too along with the AC60's, sadly. Railfanning CSX has never the same since..

[@davidng2336]

@Rusty Shackleford Unfortunately unlikely as all units have been repowered thanks to the 6000hp engine not doing its job right.

[@ijgamesproductionstudios]

Same with the SD60M & The Dash 8
PSR Is A Parasite

[@StarTard8]

An ex-Conrail SD70 and 6 AC6000s? Holy heck, that's a cool consist!

[@hungary191296]

StarTard8 SD60M and the first AC60 was powered. The rest after the Dash 8 had their exhaust covered.

[@AwesomeDesertTrains]

Will Hilliard how could you tell they were covered

[@hungary191296]

There's a white covering on the exhaust on the remaining engines.

[@garysutphin3575]

Men this guy makes the best video

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

👍

[@usm-4kagnew165]

I miss the old days when 8 banger consists were common fare & we used to change crews on the fly.

[@Henry5623]

You could make that argument for most things anymore honestly. Having spent almost 19 years working for UP (scary as that is to think about) I've seen a lot of changes over the years. Most of the changes are filed as safety improvements but in reality they aren't for the safety of the crews. It's simply to reduce crew/operational liabilities to the company. Hence why most of the ever changing rules we have to follow do little if anything to actually improve system wide performance. But rather just to micromanage you to death in an attempt to reduce crew liabilities to the company all the while stressing you more and more knowing you have to somehow work faster and safer yet with less and less freedom to do so because you have endless rule book traps trying to limit what you can and can't do. It makes my head hurt just thinking about it. Doubly so since we live in a day and age in the industry where you have to adapt to endless rule changes, yet any infraction is almost a guaranteed termination. I saw the writing on the wall long ago when DPU's were becoming more and more common. The industry is trying to get rid of us in every way that they can. Hence why we are being trained to be more robots then humans in this industry. There's a reason so few new people to the industry last for long. Most can't take it. Can't say I blame them.

An Excellent sharing , keep it up im always there to support you ,please stay connected !

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

Thanks and sure😊

Bel video, saluti da Italia

[@bnfan11]

6 AC6000CWs in one train ! nice !

[@Alco16-251F]

LOVE THOSE GEVO 16s!!

[@FFred-us9tw]

No GEVO’s in this video.

[@derricktherailfan]

Omg, the olden days was really better!

[@k5elevencinc0]

Lots of horses here!

[@DirtyLilHobo]

There are multiple units but likely only two in actual use. The rest are just along for the ride transferring them to where they’re needed or for repairs. I used to select dynamic brake for those unused locomotives for the extra braking action unless they were tagged out of service.. BNSF engineer (retired)

[@douglasalan5783]

Classic location. It appears that the last 5 units were deadheading.

[@AlikStansberry]

Classic AC6000s! They may have been a failure, but they sure won’t be forgotten!
I also really like the yellow CSX logo they have on the sides.

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

Same here, it's my fav csx logo!

[@FFred-us9tw]

They really weren't a failure. They were simply too powerful for the railroads needs which is why newer versions were never built. When i worked for CSX i ran the AC6000's all the time. Never had any issues. CSX ran them for a long time until they were worn out.

[@ETrain-mv4ck]

Nice crew change action

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

[@glynnroberts2050]

Good lord, backpacks and coolers----JEEZ

[@gravelydon7072]

+Glynn Roberts Not like the old days when crews only carried one small bag, a lunch box, and may have gotten on and off the train while it was moving.

[@railyardfilms6491]

Best from CSX in the hills of yes

[@JohnHorvath42]

Sharp looking string of CSX power leading this train

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

And for those of you in Rio Linda, that station w/the most appealing architecture is located @Point of Rocks, Md!!

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

👌😁

[@joemc111]

I am from Cumberland, I seen many a train heading out thru narrows with 6 or 7 units. I live in Florida now, a train here has maybe 2 units, never seen one with 3 units.

[@gregbarker6292]

hey can anyone tell me what the lightening bolts stand for the singles and the double bolts?

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

from what i understand, the bolts mean ac powered, and the double bolts were only put on the ac6000's with their unique paint scheme. but i could be wrong.

[@-zgizmo224-5]

wow, Im glad i came across this video. assuming all the power was running (it looks like some were not by the exaust caps) it would add up to 44,200 horsepower (6000 x6 + 4400 + 3800(sd60)) even without the 3 6000's its still an insane 26,200

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

Yeah, obviously some were being transported, but that would be insane if all were running!

[@xDieselv]

Whoa 8 engines 😬😮

[@mark_wooley001]

excellent train movie ...

como se calcula o esforço de tração num trem com tantas maquinas à frente? não há risco de quebra de engates?
