Haha, this really made us laugh. We spent two days in Flagstaff at a hotel near the railroad. I must say that I also loved that sound! Much more charming than the airport I live "next to".
We also made a video of the loooong trains, but my video isn't QUITE as long as this.
Managed to go downtown Flagstaff before we left. I loved this place. Thank you for sharing the video!
Flagstaff was built for the railroad...and the locals love the sound...trains are fast becoming a thing of the past, and Flagstaff residents have the advantage of experiencing this mode of transportation first hand! Noisy or not, it is what Flagstaff was built on. I saw the end: three minutes, twelve seconds! LOL Great vid! Thanks!
He really let you have it on that NS with the K5LLA, bet your teeth chattered on that one!! it was right in your face when let that 1L reverse bell slap you like a round house kick...chuck norris style. LOL
Can you imagine sitting at the crossing in your car waiting to get across?

I was conceived on an AT&SF and I LOVE this sound. I could sleep right next to the tracks in Flag 365 nights a year.

I did, lived at the Downtowner b,ock and a half south of the tracks. Believe it or not you are eventually able to sleep through the train noise.

Imagine a train like this per day, everyone must have its schedule on note to pass the rail crossing before or after when it comes!
