Rarest of Rares. WSOR 4002 pushing Metra 2625 with audio preamble

[shicoe30]

Gotta love the WSOR, hell of a hogger though, got some skills

[LS6Z28]

Theres no way the broken metra locomotive could MU the frieght EMD's right? I suppose the two engineers communicated via radio the whole trip?

[microbusss]

wow & the WSOR is even puling a frieght too Next time try STEAM lol

[mkrugerrails]

sweet video, doubtful if I would ever see that in my lifetime with passenger service!! 5 stars!

[TommyBNSF]

wow :D simply amazing

[fuzzypeach777]

Unbelievably dangerous! If the slack had run in or out on that and thrown passengers down, it would have been a trainload of millionaires.

[DuffBasher]

So dangerous, cos trains aren't pushed at speeds of up to 170mph EVERY DAY in other countries...

[fjcaron]

Sorry to sound cynical, but what a surprise a POS MP36, I ran those on Caltrain, they have good and bad points, mostliy bad. Cool catch though on the video, definetly a rare catch.

[MattBNSF1991]

simply unbelievable...well now its believable since it happened, but you get my drift

:P

[deloreanman14]

Holy cow...I didn't realize there was a freight train behind the WSOR locomotives!

[EJE665]

Holy cow that's rare! Dang!

[Trainmasterkreks]

Nice vid Looks like WSOR 4002, 4008 and 4079 are lending a Helping hand. Wait a minute I didnt know WSOR was into commuter rail LOL

[tropicalchaser]

Yeah. 4002 had to call the trainmaster to clear it and I guess CP-CN dispatch got the go ahead from WSOR. I would say that's a nice little revenue perk.

[HighIronofWisconsin]

Hey wait a minute...this wasn't in our train orders!

[tropicalchaser]

421

[AMTK161]

What Metra unit was this that was on the train?

[tropicalchaser]

I was worried it could have been 611 or 614 that broke down. That would likely have been the end of either.

[mmjurczak]

From what I've heard those new Metra locomotives are full of problems... I miss the F40Cs.

[tropicalchaser]

Thanks. I have a widescreen version coming out in the next few minutes to replace this 4:3

[IntoWisOutdoors]

Nicely updated!
