[8N][4k] The Rescue of Coal Train N319, CSX Abbeville Subdivision, GA 01/19/2022
214,082
Publicado 2022-03-12
The new crew that arrived the next day decided to use the ES44AH as a rear DPU. This required multiple engine moves, and hence a rather elaborate operation ensued. The continuous and professional work done by the crew to get the train moving in Hull and to return the helpers to Comer consumed almost 5 hours. Enjoy this video, which shows a typical railroad operation in great detail and with stunning footage, in 4k quality!

Back in the later 70's to late 89 we lived in a mobile home park that had tracks running along side it. I loved hearing the train go by. My father-in-law worked for C&O Railroad for 30+ years. I still miss hearing the train. Some days I can hear it leaving the yard but it is about 10 miles from me.

Great video. With minimal crew size and power the operation seems to have been accomplished with much more time and effort than seems to be appropriate for the task at hand. Very interesting and well documented process. Thank you.

Running lean works great until it doesn’t.

A great video of the intense mess a breakdown can cause on a railroad, I also note a small acknowledgement from the crew at the end . Well done Mb

This kind of drama is okay. No one is hurt and nothing is wrecked. Thank you for showing what it took to rectify this situation. Very interesting. You caught a surface grinder. Excellent video.

341s horn sounded like a dying turkey XD

I love the steerable trucks, they look awesome!

Thank You ever so much!

This was one complicated rescue mission. I'm sure the locals in Hull and Comer really "appreciated" the lengthy mucking around. By the way this is what happens, when the railroad is stingy. They want to run super long trains with minimal, often not enough power. If there's a malfunction, chaos ensues. You've documented this unusual process very nicely. I really enjoyed this longer video. :)

I live about 1000 feet from this line in Coronaca on the other side of Greenwood; just before it crosses Lake Greenwood heading through Waterloo to Laurens.

Awesome video- thanks for being patient with the switching move, not many of us get to ever see that. Editing of explanations was right on point. Keep up the good work !

A dispatcher's nightmare! Great video and commentary. I loved the long-lens views, too, especially with those GE's under power. The heat waves they generate are fantastic!
