WOW! I sure love hearing that beautiful locomotive whistle.I sure remember seeing and hearing this unit on the BCR at Clinton, B.C. I really enjoy your videos.
I really wish they still had the whistle stop in Holland Patent during the Remsen Barn FOTA. I believe they had three trips from Utica each day and you could take a ride to Thendara and back if you liked. I would get on in H.P. at 9; am ,spend day at the festival, and take the last train back at 6 pm . All for the whopping cost of $6.00
Thank you for this video. Love seeing the train depot and watching the train move along the tracks. Hearing the sound of the wheels on the track as it moves.
That's an interesting angle @2:54 or thereabouts. Looks like the locomotive is headed straight for the camera. With those horn blasts, it sorta sounds like it too ☺
Lettered on the tank cars: "Non-odorized liquid petroleum gas" aka propane. It gets something stinky added to it that makes it detectable by nose. 😂 Like my son's socks. 😂 Enjoying the video from Maine!
It's frack oil. They're classed that way because of their volatility. Anytime you hear an environmentalist arguing about pipelines ask them what they think of all those explosive black pearls rolling through the 'poor parts' of every city in upstate New York. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lac-M%C3%A9gantic_rail_disaster
Most people are oblivious to what trains carry, if they knew that and the poor shape of some of the tracks/ rolling stock they wouldn't believe you anyway! 😮
Those cars haul frack oil- I've been watching them roll up and down the line for years now, and you can guess the barrel price *and* the current policy by their movement. The good news is that there won't be any big price hikes before the election even if the Gulf *or* Venezuela get sticky. 😁😉
That must have been quite a sight at Bailey's when that car ran away, yikes! Very informative and enjoyable video. Thank you.
Thanks, catching up on your videos on this Rainy Hurricane Debby day from North Carolina

Great to visit the north country again. Greetings to you and Witold from Durham, NC. Thanks, Rambler😊
So much fun to watch this!!! Thanks for sharing! Seems to be a huge cut of tank cars! I first thought it was over kill with the power, I was wrong
This really is a great area for watching trains in
this part of New York.🇺🇲🚂🚃🚃🚂🇺🇲
Thanks for another great video; watching from York, England. You certainly have some interesting Short Line operations to watch in the Utica area!

Great looking video. Thanks for including the link to the mill switching video. Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks so much for the vids, makes me miss "home" even more ❤❤❤
Excellent video my
I counted 79 tank cars😊. Best wishes from South Staffordshire, UK.
Yes, 79 by my count too
Greetings from Tonawanda NY!
Interesting: these three vintage diesel locomotives with their tank car train. Very nicely filmed, thanks for showing.
Witold is a sensible dog. From Letchworth Garden City, north of London UK.
Thanks for sharing this great video, amazing the pulling power of those locomotives, J
Very cool video of this operation. Enjoyed the video and have a wonderful upcoming weekend.(Steve)
That must have been a very heavy coach to need 3 locos to pull it ! !
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing!
That is a lot of tank cars.
Now to watch the switching 😊
The green locomotive 2455 identical colors as BC Rail years ago, same with the red,white, blue loco.
Great to see this , thanks ! It would be nice if the tracks could be connected back up to Carthage again.
Impressive train! Thanks for sharing
Holy cow! You weren't kidding with that "BIG" in the title.
Great video from Morrisville NY.

Enjoyed the video!! Tell Witold we said hi! lol
Hey rail rambler awesome train. Will Mill at end of track ever get rail service again?
That sure was a long train! Longest I've seen in a long time! How many cars was that?
By my count, 79 tank cars, one covered hopper and three engines
Be nice if they could get more freight business up north
I always enjoy your productions! Do you have any information on when the MA&N are running the Carthage to Newton Falls job?
Glad you liked the video! Sorry, I don't have any info on the Newton Falls job. Hope to eventually video up there though
I counted 85 ? Tankers
I think 79
John are those cars going back in service and are they oil cars or propane?
Shale oil
They are going back in service. Believe they are propane tankers as they bear hazard placards numbered 1075
