Norfolk Southern 18G w/ 4 Helpers Struggling Uphill

[Guser223]

Love the sound of those SD40-2's man!!!

[TheADude213]

Sweet catch! Wonderful sound the SD40-2s have. :)

[roserugosa]

Great video, truly a long long train. Noticed a lot of Canadian cars. Loved the run downhill of the pusher diesels. Lots of SD40s out our way.

[danielsilv2]

wonder why 3373 don't have it's lights on.thought the leading end of the movement had to have them on and set to bright.

[meccaturbo]

Just imagine this scene at the very end of the independent PRR....SD40's, SD45's, U30C's, and big Alco Centurys rolling through here.

[meccaturbo]

8433 (2nd GE on the headend) is an ex Conrail unit....nose mounted numberboards give it away

[trevorandy]

alotta canadian freight cars on that train

[dasmikey1964]

The 645 prime movers make hella noise!

[DJGENEX71]

Holy crap that was a long train! When you need dependable power you can count on...who ya gonna call...EMD cause they last and last and last....lol....Totally 5***** video!

[troyhale34]

hell yeah!!! long live the SD 40-2!!!

[ZetanCrisp]

Awesome length!! Those units look mean in black paint to :)

[NSwannabeEngineer]

Those mother fuckers must be loud when in notch 8 in those mountains or even just anywhere.

[elmerpixlie]

favorite sounds..sd40-2's

[Guser223]

ditto

[thad73va30]

nice, you always need some EMD's cleaning up the rear.

[ParanormalStateRocks]

wow..that sound blew me away..

[DJGENEX71]

I bet you could 'FEEL' the power in the ground when the engines went by at that throttle setting huh? Great video Eric! 5*****! Like the 2 lead units also, good to see the SD40-2's leading the trash 9's!

[o00o00ozy]

You don't just feel it in the ground, you feel it going right through you, it's great!

[spydafx]

@o00o00ozy no that's called diarrhea

[Landaux]

The result of un-planed / bad parenting, street raised kids. They let the bastards run around like the 'hood' rats they are.

[NS6677]

Gotta love those helpers being wide open! Gives you goosebumps!

[RRYankfan]

you know what sounds better...

Four!! SD40-2s upgrade at notch8

great video i loved it

[staintedcards]

think they needed a bit more help up the slope but what do I know i just watch LOL

[CSXRP]

That chugging is big fat music to my ears. Extremely hard core. I really wish I could get this action.

[dutchtrainmanserie22]

160 railroad cars? Did you have counted the cars from this monster train?

[o00o00ozy]

MP 253.2 of the NS Pittsburgh Line; Lilly, PA.

[Hickler90]

Excellent job Eric! Definately favorited.

[iRECKONER]

AWESOME VID!

[cbehr91]

Very cool! Where exactly is this crossing? Is it west (railroad direction, of course) of horseshoe but still east of the Gallitzin Tunnels? I got my first blast of Notch-8 at CP SLOPE just west of ALTO the weekend of railfest. Although I never saw helpers up front, just on the back.

[o00o00ozy]

At MP 253.2 placing it between Cresson and Lilly on the west slope.

[ssteff13]

Been waiting for a new batch of videos from ya. Great work as usual!

[o00o00ozy]

Thanks! I got a new hard drive so I could fit them all, now I'll be uploading as usual.

[Tcostello105]

Question? are the 2 locomotives that were at the end of your video, the helpers for the other train?

[o00o00ozy]

3344 and 3372 were a helper move assigned to another train. They were probably heading to CP-SO or CP-C from Cresson.

[Tcostello105]

oh ok

[nprsux]

They're probably heading to southfork

[Sabrestrainsfan]

sweet!

[CSXAC4400CWno5112]
