im from pocahontas co. seeing and hearing the trains never gets old. cass is a true step back in time.

[xxxavier63]

every engineer has its own whistle signature .....thanks for posting

[FraternalRecoil]

I want to drive it !

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

Love that whistle! Now how did Western maryland get to Cass?

[shayfan]

The Western Maryland used to run to Spruce. The diesels you see belong to the West Virginia Central and came to Spruce from Elkins.

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

Ok. I remember riding to Bald Knob and seeing the Western Maryland line way down below the Cass line. Do they still run trains to Bald Knob?

[airvine023115]

yes they still run to bald knob.

[SR722]

Awesome. The folks at Cass know how to run a railroad.

[steved0689]

I said it once and I'll say it again, your videos are just awesome! We met once at the event, me and Trevor Laber from the WMSR.

[CassFan5150]

Question. How Did They Get those Diesels At Spruce. Did They Come From That Way?

[nicholasbreeden]

how long is Cass?

[shayfan]

It is 11 miles to Bald Knob.

[PlanesTrainsAutos]

Great video taking

[SLSF1522]

Great video. The shot with the shays meeting the BL-2/F was really cool!

[jdawgsworld]

awesome whistle...

[ltw420]

4:31-4:58 what great sounding horns gave me Goose bumps

[steved0689]

I agree, but it didnt sound nearly as good as the Leslie on the BL2!!

[trainguy3]

@ltw420 that freaked me out too, I think it was those E-9's ther that did that

[camaroracer454]

What met the cass scenic rr? Is that the Greenbrier rr's excursion?

[SLSF1522]

Yes.

[NascarProductions]

[SergioLeoneFan]

great video. film and sound editing, along with cinematography, was fantastic.

[GHOSTCOP5]

Pretty nice video! I was there, it was a good RailFan, except for the Rain. How did you get a cabride? -Jason

[shayfan]

This is a preview of a much longer video that we hope to have out in the near future. The views from the cab was an intregal part of the video thus the reason Mr. Fusco got a cabride in Shay #4.

[david245611]

I was near this shot!

[jimbo2317]

Fanstastic vid Joe! There was some spetacular scenery and angles in it! Def. saved to favorites.

[lovetoseesteam]

[railroadfan]

Top notch videography, Joe! This has to be one of your most professional-looking productions to date. You simply cannot beat the sound of those beautiful steam whistles echoing off the hills. 10/10!!!

[OSCALETRAINGUY]

hello joe: please lets have more..

i love your videos to the max..

the filming is fantastic...

thanks so much for taking me

railside with you..Steve In

Canada...the whistles make the

hair on neck Stand..A+A+

[Conrail6370]

Nice Video Joe.

Len.

[drfunk411]

Nice man. Is that the Big #6 whistle i hear at the end? Cass is a GREAT experience.

[CSX6000]

Nope. That was the other Shay that powered the passenger train. I think Shay 2 wore that hooter.

[drfunk411]

I realized that when i watched the vid again. I checked my old vids from cass. The #6 has that low, warm yet loud whistle. If that makes any sense.

[shayfan]

She doesnt have that low whistle anymore, since Danny is now the engineer lol.

[Miketherailfan]

Very nice RS5T on the WM #67...
