Amtrak & Union Pacific trains on Thanksgiving Morning

[styx4ever1963]

How often do they retire a engine!

[bullseye0071]

Nice lookin power move with that UP!

[SatchmoSings]

I missed my calling in life; to have been a driver of such a train would have been something I know I'd have enjoyed.

[singwith]

@SatchmoSings may be you would not enjoy as train operator because some people try kill him self by train.

It's a 787 on a test flight. ANA is the launch customer for the 787 so they already have one or two painted in that color scheme. Notice the wingtips are turned up just a little. 787.

777's do not have winglets.

The winglets on a 767(those that have been retrofitted) are bigger, and are painted blue on ANA.

If people still disagree, there are 2or 3 well known websites that deal with airline pics, check it out.

[singwith]

@QuickBurn70 cool. I know nothing about Boeing.

[Simonize41]

@QuickBurn70 It's an ANA 777-300, period; the 787-800 isn't as long and has a pointed rear end at the tail, the 777 has a squared off rear end just like the a/c in your video. Sorry to contradict you, and I say this with respect, but you're wrong.

[Simonize41]

@QuickBurn70 Also the first 787-8 flew on the 15th December 2009, quite a while after you uploaded this video.

[88hhe]

Its def a 777-300 look at the racked wing tips

[JetMechMA]

Those trains with container-ship containers....represent jobs outsourced from America. Just remember that. That's why the economy collapsed. Nobody has a decent job anymore. What do you do for a living?

[JetMechMA]

Wow, at 1:00 that's a sharp curve. Didn't know they could turn that sharp.

[kauzmanentertainment]

Wonder if they run trains on X-Mas

[singwith]

@kauzmanentertainment yes, they do.

[kauzmanentertainment]

@singwith I sense it cuz last X-Mas they didn't run at all until the day after.

[singwith]

@kauzmanentertainment It's slow but they run the train even Xmas day such as high priority intermodal.

[airplanebuilderman]

nice at :40 is that a 767?

[singwith]

@airplanebuilderman not sure. I know nothing about air planes,

[SteubiePilot]

@airplanebuilderman That's a 777-300ER from the airline ANA (All Nippon Airways) inbound from Tokyo,

[linne2791]

@airplanebuilderman

it was the new boing dreamliner

[airplanebuilderman]

nice at :40 is that a 787?

[JetMechMA]

@airplanebuilderman: 787s aren't in service yet. That looks like an ANA (All Nippon Airways) Boeing 777. I could be wrong.

[airplanebuilderman]

@JetMechMA I know that the 787's aren't in service yet since I work on that program at boeing. What I don't /didn't know if this was or is seattle. was wondering if that was a 767 or a 777

[JetMechMA]

@airplanebuilderman: I know that the 787's aren't in service yet since I work on that program at boeing. What I don't /didn't know if this was or is seattle. was wondering if that was a 767 or a 777

JM: Well then you had a typo, because you said 787. Just sayin.

[airplanebuilderman]

@JetMechMA I was thinking it (this video) was seattle. the 787 is in test flight so I was thinking it was a 787 on a test flight.

[JetMechMA]

@airplanebuilderman: I was thinking it was a 787 on a test flight.

JM: I see. You could be right then. I really enjoyed this video. And I wish they would send the 787 around to SFO so we could get a peak at it.

[airplanebuilderman]

@JetMechMA it's cool. test flights are down in the desert somewhere

[coastergreg]

A up with an E-Bell?

[singwith]

@coastergreg Yea, all new units.

[BigBoyO56]

I can't belive they would make engineer's&conducter's work on Thanksgiving.But I can understand because of proboly freight.But I defenitly can understand Amtrak because of passanger's.

[singwith]

@BigBoyO56 The TG day is usually slow but I guess they don't want to stop some high priority trains.

[BigBoyO56]

@singwith Yeah pretty much.But about the high priority train's.UP CSX BNSF at that rime of the year it's mostly mixed freight train's and stack train's.

[cocutvictor]

Adoe trenurile americane.Sunetul clopotului este fantastic.

[singwith]

@cocutvictor Thanks!

[DUraggs05]

3:32 best lash up ever if im not mistakin' SD70M Aand SD75 how can you tell the difference the dynamic fans in the rear?!?!

[singwith]

@DUraggs05 Thanks. IDK... hope someone answer your question.

[nufiprost]

Locomotives in Europe look like little child's compared to what you have in the States. Good video mate.

[singwith]

@nufiprost Yea, I somehow agree with your comment about the size of locomotives. Thanks!

[sgtredbluered]

Are you on or off railroad r.o.w. there, or do they care? At 1:34?

[singwith]

renator I'm not. The crossing gate was behind me. This is pretty unique place that junk yard/metal rycycler shop was in between the Metrolink river sub(EX SP) and UP L.A sub. so i was standing at front of the metal shop.

[UP5853]

Sounds like the sound bell on the crossing in the second clip is going out.

[singwith]

Yes. that bell is always like that.

[ervans]

[singwith]
