Railfanning Bound Brook, NJ 7/27/11 *Conrail BLUE Leaders*

[SCL7500]

That was some great BB action you caught. But the Conrail GP38-2 was the lucky catch. Nice!

[trainlover1999]

awesome catch especially with the conrail blue leaders.5***** and I caught NS 5637 and 5277 at Bound Brook on the same train.

@trainlover1999 Thanks man! I was shocked to see the blue faced widecab. That's pretty sweet, 5277 is a great looking engine!

[trainlover1999]

@CSXACe yeah 5277 is a great looking engine, but I thought that 5277 was goig to be painted over into the NS paint scheme.

[CSXACe]

@trainlover1999 Sadly it's days as a Conrail are close to over. It will probably get repainted sometime this year or early next year.

[SCL7500]

Great action you caught at Bound Brook.

[TheFlagman2]

P.S. You should've waited for Q300, Q190 Q438, Q410, and Q418.

[TheFlagman2]

Nice video! Are you going to be in Ridgefield Park next Wednesday? If you are I'll say there's a 90% chance I'll see you there.

[CSXACe]

@TheFlagman2 Thank you! We'll see, I'm not sure what day I'll be going but I plan to go railfanning sometime next week, probably not Wednesday I'm pretty busy in the morning. It was too hot, haha I was kind of suprised I didn't see any CSX trains. The action slowed down alot when I left.

[MrConraal]

Nice one there! 5*****

[CSXACe]

@MrConraal Thank you!

[GenesisSanctuary]

Awesome video! The LMS and Conrail units were great to see!

[CSXACe]

@GenesisSanctuary Thanks, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw blue coming down the first time, then an hour later anohter blue leader!

[KyleVideoDesigns]

Epic video, with great catches man! LMS and CRQ made the video! And the meets were pretty nice. Awesome man!

[CSXACe]

@KyleVideoDesigns Thank you, I want to hit this line up more, I have MUCH better luck here. Hahaha, I'll take an LMS Dash 8 and a CRQ GP38-2 over 3 ACe's trailing any day. ;)

NS i02, NS 22V, NS 211, NS 212, NS 11J, MA-02, MA-01, NS 18G, NS 24Z, NS 20E. Thats all the Information from the first train to the last. It was 1 hell of a day!

[21stCenturyLtd]

@Railfan108 I read this and I'm thinking "who the hell would know all that?" then i said "oh.... its tom" hahaha

[CSXACe]

@Railfan108 Hey were you one of the guys out there? Sorry I never stopped over to say hi, I was tired as hell and didn't want to screw up with the tripod when a train was coming, thanks for the help on this though! It was an awesome day, I was shocked to see those 4 Eastbounds starting with the Conrail, as soon as on passed you could see the headlights to the next! It was a great day, anything else come by after I left?

[Railfan108]

@CSXACe na, not much came by after you left, it slowed down alot and yes, i was the kid with the CSX shirt lol. and yeah, NS was treating us very well today!

[CSXACe]

@Railfan108 Oh, KyleVideoDesigns told me you guys were there early, catch Q740 or 38T by any chance?

[Railfan108]

@CSXACe not this time, but i have gone on weekday monrings really early (like 5:30, 6ish) and seen both trains. And rarely, you'll see Q740 during the day. 38T/39Z, i found the earlier in the morning it runs, the later at night its runs west. The later it coming in the morning (like noonish or so) and the earlier it goes back west (like 3ish), Q740/Q741 are more late night trains like 11ish, they usually roll through thebrook

[CSXACe]

@Railfan108 That's strange how it leaves earlier when it comes in later. Haha, but it's not much of a train so I guess whenever they can go they go.

[Railfan108]

@CSXACe YUP!

[Engine201]

Excellent catches! 5*****

[CSXACe]

@Engine201 Thanks man!
