(K5LLA on Dash 9) A Day on the NS Harrisburg Line Part 2 - Lebanon and Hershey: April 2, 2011

Pity the guy in first shot doesn't know how to correctly step on moving train....he's using the wrong foot first!

Nice catch. The new K5LLA's have a very M5ish horn sound to them. Love it!

[boberttrain831]

@UFO151 Exactly what I was thinking! It sounds incredible!

lolz your lucky you get to travel to see trains. Hopefully this summer I can get out to the big freight lines in PA :) and I liked to see those UP engines too. excellent horn action! :D

Keep in mind that starting this summer the 9th and 10th St. crossings in Lebanon will no longer exist. They are converting the PA-72 North and South one way streets into overpasses with construction slated to start as early as May. Knowing how budgets and politics work, it probably will take them a long time before construction gets underway, but the plans have been finalized. Get your shots while you can.

[boberttrain831]

@o00o00ozy Well that sucks! That was my favorite spot in Lebanon...guess I'll just have to stick to 7th street then after 9th/10th are gone.

@boberttrain831

It definitely does suck, more history changed...but at least the contractors have taken into account of putting a sidewalk and extended platform for photographers, probably like the bridge at Enola. Obviously, not as good to take video from with traffic rushing by (although, if you time the redlights correctly you'll have at least a minute of clear time), anyway, I'm hoping the project get's pushed off until fall or next year, because I won't get home until May to get my shots!

[boberttrain831]

@o00o00ozy Well, atleast they're courteous for doing that, but you're right. Won't be the same. I do hope they can push it off for a while. Especially for you, man.

[CSX6000]

Nice stuff man!

[boberttrain831]

@CSX6000 Thanks, Adam!

[GenesisSanctuary]

Damn, the Dash 9 on 20K has a BEAST K5LLA! Now why can't more Dash 9s have horns like that? Excellent video Robert!

[boberttrain831]

@GenesisSanctuary It sounded incredible! And ikr? If they did, maybe I wouldn't hate them as much, lol. Thanks!

[SuperStarRendon]

Great video and nice horn on the first train.

[boberttrain831]

@SuperStarRendon Thank you!

[KyleVideoDesigns]

Another great video! Seeing 68Q without forgein power is rarer than seeing it with forgein power! And 20K had a kickass horn!!

[boberttrain831]

@KyleVideoDesigns Thanks! Any other day, that train has foreigh power...I get it with 2 shitters. Go figure, right? But yeah, that is a rare catch, lol. And ikr? Sounded even better in person!

[RandN425]

OMG 20Ks horn is AWEOSME!!!! great video!

[boberttrain831]

@RandN425 Sure is! Thanks!
