Uggg yea that IS an ugly sounding horn! Still great video! 5*****

We hardly ever see any switcher units 'round here. Often they'll switch the yard with road units, unless PIR no. 2342 is around. Check out my video of a train leaving McCullough, pretty typical of what I see here.

[whisman2007]

Interesting video, never seen these units before! And I live less than a mile from the IORY's home base, McCullough Yard.

Nice. One of my first HO scale model locomotives was a TP&W GP18 but I've never seen any of their real power in action. Yes TrainmanKight some flasher crossings do not have bells. There are a good number like that where I come from in southern Wisconsin.

That Horn On That SW1500 Is Awesome. 5 Stars Man.

Thanks man! Yeah you can go death when your near that type of horn. On the other switcher, it has a low sounding horn, and you can barely here it at any railroad crossing

[TrainmanKight]

first to view and comment cool video it is really stupid that the crossing does not have bells

[TPWRAILFAN]

I know the route 251 crossing in El Paso IL doesn't either.(Front St. I believe) It has cantilever signals but no bell.

[TrainmanKight]

what is the point?just lights there need a bell now with gates there really doesnt need a bell but it is nice to have the bell

[TPWRAILFAN]

i never said it needed a bell besides ther is no real point use the thing thats between your ears it is called a BRAIN

[TrainmanKight]

well i do but people dont and that would be the first thing to sue for

[TPWRAILFAN]

people will sue for anything anymore

i.e. getting themselves hurt by trespassing on RR property and climbing on top of the freight cars

[TrainmanKight]

its a bunch of nonsense i know
