SUPER RARE! UP Freights Race through Fremont©

[ihaztrainz]

...-ins!

[ihaztrainz]

Tra-... Thploot. I just passed out because this is EPIC!

[steriogram007]

Oh man the only thing that would have made this video any better is if the first train did a "shave and a haircut" and the other did the "two bits" part :)

[CaliforniaRailfan101]

Fremont railfanning at it's absolute finest!! Awesome shot!

[SnakeMxR]

Shit thats a long train!! - from UK

[fireAKems]

@SnakeMxR Type in "Monster Stack Train. 2 Miles. DPU" here on YouTube. 18,000 feet long, so a little over 3 miles.

[estesoyojajaja]

The one in the left did cheat. He did change of railroad. By the way, this thing, you can find them only on the Republic of the United States.

[railman2015]

with both trains blowing their horns at the same time, i bet it was LOUD.

and 4 people are dumbasses for disliking this video

[chad24ist]

another reason we in England love the USA. Your trains

[feqfg]

[RickMcSwift]

[SeberHusky]

Nobody can jump the gates this time! You may be able to beat one train, but not two!  lol

You'd get hit no matter what!

[littlesean2010]

[theorangelemons]

[Zardoz5280]

that was far out!!! good steady pix even tho you had a zoom lens

[djdjerojr]

These us trains horning piss me off so fucking bad -.- Stop it you fucking twats and fix your fucking crossings..

[PotentialDifference1]

so why do they put an engine at the back of the train? i notice there is usually one engine in the back

[metalhealth12]

@PotentialDifference1 its to help push the train up a steep grade(hill)

[JohnJensenEditor]

@PotentialDifference1 - It's called distributed power. Basically it helps keep the slack out of the train and makes it more efficient. The engineer can actually control that rear engine remotely. It's very common on our trains in the Midwest, especially on the UP.

[shininghappyperson7]

wow!! great vid,u where lucky not only to see this, but that the train on the left was going faster or you might not have been able to see both trains!!

[BUICK925]

[ChuckLukas]

@thehorseshoecurve Eat my Dust,... xD

[DrStrangelove451]

@thehorseshoecurve You should have had a raido to hear what they are saying.

[jmm2000]

Can you imagine what the conversation between the train crews was?

Intermodal train-"Ha! I'm beating you!"

Mixed frieght-"No, I'm BEATING you!"

Intermodal train-"I'm a hotshot, my load is lighter and I'm STILL BEATING you!"

Mixed frieght-"I'm stronger than you; your train is nothing but a candy-ass forwardier."

Intermodal train-"Jealous crybaby."

Mixed frieght-"Stuck-up pansy!"

[ericerock1000]

@jmm2000 lol IK right.

[Parky427]

WOW..I bet you went and bought a Lottery Ticket after that one...A1..

[crazytaxi1000]

the horns together sound wierd

[stickfigure1998]

What happens when the track merges?!

[railfanatic844]

XD that poor solo engine at the front. he got pwned

[zozey1231]

This is the most amazing train video I've ever seen ._. *subscribes*

[inrd9001]

Super Awesome, even better would be an all EMD consist, without the GEVOs

[GearsofDuty0811]

please if you can put up that camera between those trains if it happens again

[genenco1]

I can imagine an elderly couple sitting at the crossing:

"Honey, there's two trains coming and it looks like they're racing each other!"

"Dang hotrodding teenagers!"

[GearsofDuty0811]

@genenco1 haha

[trainman7261]

Awesome vid!!! i wish i could catch something like that!

[trainguy47]

the one person that disliked this video has personal issues......lol :P

[Mdpaulk]

If they had five stars to give I would have given six! What an extremely rare catch!

[iwannabeit]

awesome that looks like fun

[AMT4245]

I bet the crew was having a blast. Must be fun for em when this type of stuff happens ^.^

[cloudfater]

A good time, right place ! Congratulation !

[ImpyLane]

idk wuts so rare...dispatchers line up double flow of traffic all the time

[Stickymajorwow]

rare catch nice job good vid

[Drewster327]

Knowing this area, this REALLY is a Rare occurance!

[jnthnrl798]

you know i was hoping to see some of the vets like the challenger 4-6-6-4 or a bigboy 4-8-8-2

[Unit1138327]

The mixed freight had the advantage because it had two units, it was more aerodynamic, and had the inside curve. But I doubt the last two would make much of a difference.

[GoldenCreekValleyRR]

"Pardon me.. do you have any grey poupon?" says the intermodel train to the mixed freight.

[shadowdemon46]

Union Pacific won the race

[12783USAGRL]

wow

[MrTigerman33]

Fremont Ohio?

[volksjager8]

I have seen a similar scenario one time just a few months back here in Missouri on a UP line

[LegoMovieMan44]

Fremont, CA? THATS WHERE IM FROM!

[Alwaystrains]

Damn, now thats an amazing catch!!

[420Kowalski]

Couple of years ago this kid was walking past the station here from American High School, got hit and killed by the train. Kids that saw it said they saw his backpack fly up into the air and soar away.

[Intransitman]

Wow that was sweet! =D

[lawpar79]

Lucky, i wish UP trains could race in San Jose.

[fixierider97]

awesome vid!!

[Aero203]

awesome catch! That is the number one catch right there.

[cnwfan]

It may be a case where the dispacher had too many trains on one of the tracks. This happens quite a bit, so its not rare.

[Aero203]

these tracks do not get that many freight trains so in fremont it is a rare catch.

[spacecalander]

5***** good catch!

[Amtrakdavis22]

Dude you are so lucky! That's an awesome catch!!!!! 5 stars and a fav! Incredible!

[PilotKev170]

thanks!

[jazzbutterworth]

@PilotKev170 It seemed like there was a steam engine in there somewhere, no?

[modemeyes]

Great action video & rare. 5* & Fav

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

Nicely Done, nothing beats a exciting race between big brute engines such as these.

[BNSF7776]

5/5

[lawpar79]

that's one of the best overtakes I've ever seen. I'm guessing the mixed frieght wins.

[trainboy94]

[unionpacificrr]

Excellent!! That was the MSJRV and something else, possibly one of the "K" trains. The MSJRV came north out of the Newark yard, and the intermodal came south from Carter.

[PilotKev170]

Thanks, rare for both trains to come at the same time

[Danapeople]

KOAMN possibly
