[AZ09astrophysicist]

Great video no movement of the camera

[pdlsteeler1]

I like trains.

[soulbrother61]

yip large freight train that's for sure...probably full of burgers and bullshit for all those fat ass yanks...they're that thick they might all even be empty

[boisenpaul1]

amazing

[theedit123]

0:00 This is a freight train (NO SHIT!)

[sixamsedna]

@theedit123 wow.. do you think there's a possibility before the video he was discussing with a friend what type of train was coming their way? You do know there are passenger trains too, right?

[theedit123]

@sixamsedna ok sure, but freight trains and passenger trains are quite distinguishable considering freight trains carry goods and passenger trains have coaches with windows with people inside

[sixamsedna]

@theedit123 the point I'm trying to make is that, when (quite possibly) the train's horn was blaring in a distance before any of them saw what was coming - there was discussion on what train was coming. The moment they saw the locomotive coming right out of the corner, one of the guys finally confirms one of his guesses "this is a freight train"

@markimark5000: The scale of things in the USA never fails to amaze me.

JM: The Concorde amazes me. ;)

[RXDubz]

Wonder how heavy all that is...

[GayBoyRunning]

How fast can it go? Oh that right it cant.. How slow can u go...

[JamesALewis1000]

I Wonder If My New Ipod Was In There?

[jackiechan511]

So many shipping containers. No wonder America's trade deficit will only worsen

[tryder1991]

@markimark5000 especially the people

[DaveT190]

in queensland we never seen a two storey container trains lyk dat coz our trains go under the overhead wires including freight trains bt these trains in L.A are awesome and well done and keep up the good work....

[eldiabl06]

no it a passanger train dir

[MrZkr123]

I would love to see the "Super C" freight come back. And use a couple P42's but one's meant for freight.

[xtremepadrefan]

nice catch what station was this shot at ?

[kylebarr1]

not fast thats normal speed, bout..... 35-40 mph

[darkray1]

lol imagine trying to stop that all at once =P

[fixierider97]

Thank you for filling me in that this IS, in fact, a FREIGHT train.

[csp1977]

all filled with China goods headed to Walmart.... God Bless America

[yardlet6]

@csp1977 You want your 27 inch TV for $200 or not?

[JetMechMA]

@yardlet6: You want your 27 inch TV for $200 or not?

JM: You want your economy collapsed or not?

[adam1234a]

too bad u didnt go see the line outside of the city, these go 70-80mph outside the city.

[Krause12689]

its actually more about 20-35 majorit are 3 wells and 5 wells per car

[trainmaster500]

yes the second loco was a santa fe unit with warbonet colors

[HDSHIG]

it looks like the station is tilted at an angle. Would be scary of one of those containers weren't secured tight :X

[ThunderDonkey]

the tilted track actually makes it possible to go faster in that corner, as it is the middle rail; it is made for trains like these that don't stop but travel on.

[EsotericDesi]

That's not just long but fast train...

[seabeatle]

I shot this just before taking my 4 year old on his first train ride. This station is just a few miles away from the Port of Los Angeles. Thousands of containers come throught this port avery day on there way to everywhere in the USA.

[pcmiler2000]

How fast its going 50-55mph?

[slug96]

this isn't a station near the port of LA.. It looks like Norwalk. The trains that go to the Harbor they go thought the Alameda Corridor.

[pillsbury09]

What station is that?

[obkb1]

Norwalk Metrolink station.

[like5cookies]

holy crap thats way to fast

[KoploperMau]

It's the US huh, big bigger biggest ;)

[markimark5000]

And may it last forever.

[Scrige]

Sortra, though the trains in Australia, particularly Western Australia are MASSIVE... very amazing

[pete01768]

as i watch this i think of swift and schnieder drivers who can't get a load and wonder why. ;0

[BNSFBJ]
