I appreciate it Buddy

[Deionkiones77]

pwalpar... what do you use to edit your videos? Also what is the purpose of all these train videos? Hobby?

[pwalpar]

I use corel videostudio pro X2 and yes I suppose its a hobby now that I am retired. I am A retired railroader and its one thing I am an expert at, so why not make videos of what I know about LOL I do make other types of videos as well Thanks for watching

[stingpower]

Pwalpar,what other industry was there (siding) beyond Williamson?

[pwalpar]

I can't remember the name but I recall A pulpwood yard out there

[stingpower]

How often to you guys go out to the Borden plant on Hwy 362? I always like to see trains on the old Griffin-Williamson-Columbus line.And BTW anybody have any video of the old Williamson-FT Valley line?

[pwalpar]

They go out to Borden 2 or 3 times a week.  it depend on when Borden calls for a switch. I doubt videos were invented yet when that line was running LOL

[we34w]

I was the conductor on this train. I tend to talk fast on track authoritys and once you have done it enought times it comes natural. That night if i can remember got down to the lower 30s upper 20s. And i didnt want the unit to frezee. I am from Indiana.

That trip pays for 118 miles so no over time.

[pwalpar]

Thanks David, I appreciate the comment. It;s always good to hear from brother railroaders, I heard you on my scanner when I was in town, so I went to the yard to watch you by

[pearldrumsarecool]

I'm starting to get interested watching your Engine videos but How do you operate one my step brother is about to go work for CSX but he has to go to training first in Atlanta for saftey classes.

[pwalpar]

The operating part is fairly simple, The experiance and knowledge required to operate it safely however takes years to accomplish.

[pearldrumsarecool]

Oh well he is ready to be an engineer though but thanks Walter

[PhilbruProduction]

Magnificent trains. Thank you for the sharing. Philippe. 5*

[pwalpar]

Merci Philippe

[togreektown]

Walt, listening to all that jabber on your radio reminds me of my CB radio days listening to skip coming in from the states. the last bit on the radio made me laugh so hard I all most fell off my chair.

He says just wanted to let you know it wasn't running! supposed to be cold tonight LOL Georgia! cold! hahahahaha

I guess that engineer don't go very far north does he? hehehehe

Wayne

[pwalpar]

LOL< Wayne I would imagine it does seem funny to a northerner, It did get cold last night. It was our first freeze of the year. The engineer or conductor who was talking was following company policy. If it's going to freeze leave them running. It can be quite difficult to start a cold locomotive the next day. Thanks Wayne

[Bevoin1970]

I still can't grasp exactly whats being said on the radio scanner... ha ha.

I understood "Yeh Mam"

Had a look at this area on Google earth, its brilliant what we can do now isn't it?

[pwalpar]

I thought the radio was remarkably clear and for a change quite easy to understand LOL. it is quite amazing what we can do Paul

[NN2Blue]

Walter you are going to have to help me out here! What are they jabbering about on the scanner? LOL!

Great video - 5* Thanks for sharing. - Mike

[ER801]

They are getting their track authority to proceed down that portion of track. At the end, they were reporting engines that were not idling.

[NN2Blue]

Thanks! I was able to understand the final conversation. How does the track authority actually work? Do they enter codes they are given into a piece of kit? Cheers! - Mike

[pwalpar]

Thanks Elton

[pwalpar]

Thanks Mike, They were handing out track warrants between the dispatcher and the train. This is not automatic tracks, so its the way the railroads controls where the trains are. Thanks for watching mike
