thI was at the 11th avenue crossing in my car that day...going toward highway 198. i shut off my car LoL that was the longest passenger (non public) train i had ever seen....Any Old footage of F40 single level amtraks in hanford? or know where i could find some? my mother use to commute to LA and work the sunset limited LA to Miami 1988-1992 when they still did. Miss those days :'(
Yup, its just like any regular freight train really. Since it has no rear marker lights (like a old passenger cars, or even the new ones) a FRED was used.
The RB&BB train was just here a couple of days ago. I saw it as I was landing in Phoenix from my trip to New York. The tracks run right by the airport so you can do some railfanning while you wait for the plane :).
There is a "red unit", which handels the eastern coast, and the "blue unit" ,which handels to Pacific Coast area's. I belive the blue unit is the northwest tight now leaving Portland today.
thats over kill all those engines for that freight train ive seen a 120 car train in ohio pulled by csx with 2 locos and they were full loads 1 ac6000cw and 1 sd70MAC thats a total of 10,300 hp which is nothing compared to that mixed there but it was a good video here in ny the long island railroad uses 3 mp15ac's 2 pull the circus train every march. good video there tho =D
Dude I freaking can never get a shot of that circus train. It only comes through my area once a year headed east and I am always at work when it comes by. Drives me nuts, I so want a shot of this thing.
NIce catch! Great shot! that's really long train! I don't think I have a chance to see the circus train since they won't run through my area. Glad someone filmed it.
Noticed they had a door open in the 3rd large-animal car (at 1:03) and some guy was in door maybe throwing something out? I read that the large-animal cars (1 through 5) are always placed right behind the power as that gives the big animals the smoothest ride!!
Yup, all true. That guy at 1:03 was only waving, nice guy. Those frist cars are indeed the animal cars. Those are were the elephants were. They're trunks could be seen!
I bet all the circus people are really nice! I bet the animals are so used to the train rides that it is no big deal to them!! Sounds like they treat their animals really well and take good care of them-- that is -very- good to hear!!
They take great care of them. I read the newspaper the next morning and on the front page it showed the elephants parading down the streets in Fresno.
This is just absolutely kick-ass HARDCORE awesome-- it's just "the greatest show on earth" (-LoL-). This is definitely going to my favs (and I don't do very many there!). Well worth the wait, SF3751 and with the bonus of the other freight too! AWESOME job with the video and thanks for sharing!!
Thanks! Me too! I was hoping a UP ACe would be leading, because I have yet to see one. But I found out a couple days before this that there was a UP MAC leading. So I was really just fine with anything.
Do they not have a contract with single RR, because that train has had many different units pulling.
