Not suprised that the BNSF Plasser that you saw, that he quickly went over the diamonds when a UP Westbound was not only a half mile away. Selfish pigs
@Jamersonde: Dynamic brake vents, and rear radiator housing on top are different between the two. Nowadays, it's much more difficult to tell apart ES44DC and ES44AC.
And it should. He didn't walk across the tracks, but would go right up to the edge of ballast, and move around a lot. I got fairly close when I stood near the diamonds on the third video I posted, but I was still well clear of the tracks and the ballast.
I know, I try to get as close as I can, but still be safe, for example, when I railfan at Roseville and Sacramento, I try to get as close as possible without going over the yellow line.
nice timing with the meet

Most Dash 8's look like dash 9's which makes it confusing to someone, like me, that can't usually tell the difference.

@cchan006 All I know about the ES units is they're the newest from GE & their horns sound awesome. Thanks for the info on the Dash 8's & 9's.
