GRAPHIC VIDEO - Tragedy Near the Denfield Road Bridge - Deer Hit By Freight Train

[GSDirtboy]

Oh, deer!

[CFLNHLFIFAFAN]

Great view to sit and watch a train

[EeRocKK]

@CFLNHLFIFAFAN Denfield Rd is one of the few spots in Ontario where the CN and CP run side by side. On top of that, it's out of the city and nice and quiet there... until the trains go by.

[CFLNHLFIFAFAN]

@EeRocKK

nice thats sweet man, ya I live near Winnipeg on prairie town of few thousand I live close to rail road, but the road you on would be sweet to just stand on

[thenotlad8]

now that was just a deer...imagine what it would do to a person

[EeRocKK]

@thenotlad8 Yikes! I'd rather not! One would certainly need a mop...

[thenotlad8]

@EeRocKK

Most certainly. Im thinking about going into the air force and when I'm retired hopefully being a train conductor wether it be passenger or freight but i would hope that will never happen to me

[BrynTheSkits]

"Oh no please run to the side oh no it's not gonna do it oh no... aww owned"

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[KutsuuTheKilla]

aw aw...owned

[aaaarrrgggghh]

it was a dot, not a deer

[fknra]

poor deer.

but in no way is this a tragedy

deer is delicious

[EeRocKK]

@fknra Venison is the bomb indeed! I called it a tragedy for people who might be offended by a train smoking a fawn. Too bad circumstances were different... I would have loved to clean it and make a few dozen pounds of sausage. I hear ya, FKNRA. Thanks for watching.

[robert99902]

that is the longest train ive ever seen

[Griffo515]

i hope the train is ok

[EeRocKK]

@Griffo515 The train always wins against the flesh. Thanks for watching!

[Armydude468]

lmfao I laughed for 7min straight at "ahh owned"

[mgnyg46]

@rzid. same goes for Fuckin jerks like you!

[EeRocKK]

@mgnyg46 Why do people write these kinds of things on my comments?

[StrayzKid]

ZOOM ZOOM !!! USE THE ZOOM BUTTON

[EeRocKK]

@StrayzKid My cam is a still cam that can't zoom in (or out) on video mode. It was zoomed in when I was shooting. A video cam would have been a better choice, but it was my still cam that caught this incident. Thanks for watching.

[JLJ061]

@StrayzKid Why would you want to zoom in on something getting killed???

[rzid]

I dunno-I missed the "tragedy" here. Deer are like giant rats a lot of places. Not enough natural predators so if the train takes out a few it's no big loss.

[EeRocKK]

@rzid I called it a tragedy to warn people who think differently than you and I do. Thanks for watching!

[Worker41]

@rzid It would be no big loss if you were taken out! Actually it would be a gain!

[tvs3006]

ha aha aha

[steelheadsniper19]

I work for CP this happens all the time and these railroads should be 100% responsible for where there trains run......not the crew but the companies

[mason6511]

Normally, Id come up with some snappy insult, but how can I hate on someone doing something with his kid? No matter what my personal opinion of the "hobby" good on you man.

[mason6511]

Hey, to each his own. Take care

[EeRocKK]

@mason6511 You too Mason. I never said we railfans were normal! :) Cheers from one good dad to another.

[mason6511]

Apparently one more.....

[EeRocKK]

@mason6511 You're posting sentence fragments on my video comments, man. What kind of a douchebag does that?

[mason6511]

Obviously one more.... Lol

[EeRocKK]

@mason6511 OK, I don't feed trolls, usually, but if you want to see all the douchebags that go "a-videotapin'" trains, check out all the people I subscribe to. We're called railfans and this is our hobby. Better than stamp collecting, although I'm not judging. My three year old loves going to see trains, so I oblige him. I hope this answers your trol... errr question.

[mason6511]

what kind of douchebag is a video taping trains

[EeRocKK]

@mason6511 How many kinds of douchebags are there, Mason? Thanks for watching!

[Yachite]

"Oh no, he's not going to make it........ahhh owned".....burst out laughing

[Deangilo1014]

of course he didnt make it there like 5mins of train and two secs of deer

[Deangilo1014]

u almost forget about the deer cuz thats a long ass train

[Deangilo1014]

u gotta love the sencerity in aww owned he sounded like a proud member of PETA

[EeRocKK]

@Deangilo1014 People for the Eating of Tasty Animals... you bet I'm a member! Thanks for watching!

[jonesm16]

@Deangilo1014 aside from the part where he says "aww owned"

[Deangilo1014]

@jonesm16 that was the joke there was no senserity it aww owned

[shovel1218]

Love that, ahh owned part, made me laugh so hard.

[bozerabc123]

in all fairness, deer are retarded. i love to hunt them, but, they are retarded.

[AuraStriker96]

oh nooo oh noooo... Aww owned... xD

[Blairlennon4321]

R u saying Bambi is dead :-((((

[EeRocKK]

@Blairlennon4321 Only if that fawn's name was Bambi. :(

Thanks for watching!

[MrTrainoperator]

OWNED!!!!

[jaypark2027]

so which pixel is the deer?

[SlaimusBloodwelp]

You made me lose my sad face when you said, "Awe Owned..."

[KingLizard107]

This was unepected?

[skeeyouchoochoo]

real nice lineup!!!!

[osrx1]

That was a nice sounding M

[rgre1]

What a clustered train schedule.

[EeRocKK]

@rgre1 That, sir, is the joy of the Denfield road bridge. It's usually busy like that, sans-deer apocalypse! Because of a bend in the river, all train traffic west of London Ontario on CN and CP must pass under this bridge. It's no Fostoria OH, but it's a great spot!

[fartchunk]

@EeRocKK CP... eh?

[EeRocKK]

@fartchunk CP and CN side by side. It doesn't get better than that in this part of Canada.

[KILLERGRINGH94]

deer OH SHIT!

train RUN BITCH RUN

DEER AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

TRAIN im getn dinner 2night

deer SPLAT

train : D

deer im done

[grizzleybearz282004]

are you saying it didnt die right after getting hit by the train whats the odds of that

[EeRocKK]

@grizzleybearz282004 The odds are probably pretty high. The fawn was small enough to mostly fit under the snowplow of the locomotive though. If it had been bigger, the results would have been more dramatic, I think. Thanks for watching!

[cashman0402]

Damn you thomas the tank engine...

[SittingMooseShaman]

...clobbered by ~6,000+tons of speeding train...couldn't have been moving that much..."paralyzed" ? naw, that deer was dead...it's just the remains didn't know it yet...hundreds are plastered by trains every day in Canada & USA- mostly at night- they're nocturnal. I've seen trains blast through herds of 'em...Time...consumes itself.

[EeRocKK]

@SittingMooseShaman Good wishful thinking, but I saw the front legs clawing the ground as it tried to stand up, but couldn't. The next day, what you described was true. I was there, and it kind of was as sickening as it sounds. I put "tragedy" in the title for a reason. I wish it had died instantly.

[NpplNaminator1]

damn... that deer got ultra pwnt it was gravy afterwords though :D

[strangledparrot]

Thats horrible. I would have put the deer out of its misery

[EeRocKK]

@strangledparrot I had nothing but an almost two year old with me, and it wouldn't have been too responsible of me to take a baby for a walk where passenger trains fly by at 80mph. I wished it died without suffering too.

[strangledparrot]

@EeRocKK I am not blaming you, that is understandable.

[EeRocKK]

@strangledparrot I know man. It was a tough situation.

[SittingMooseShaman]

@strangledparrot how?

[strangledparrot]

@SittingMooseShaman By whatever means necessary.

[SittingMooseShaman]

@strangledparrot ...which are?

[strangledparrot]

@SittingMooseShaman If it was beyond medical care I would have shot it.

[SittingMooseShaman]

@strangledparrot ...so would I...however, wouldn't the OPP be a bit miffed...I mean, unless it's huntin' season...

[mrchipeater]

im really curious at the end of the video you said it was still alive and you phoned the police, do you know what ever happened to the dear? like did the people actually show up to look at it or what ?

[EeRocKK]

@mrchipeater Hey man. The OPP said they would notify CN, and I assume they did. When I went back the next day, the fawn was there but has expired over night. (I didn't have the boy, so I did check it out). It looked as though it had been folded in half (1st train), and had a laceration on the top of its head (from the 2nd train). It was a sorry sight. There are coyotes in the area which probably claimed the fawn later that day, cause it wasn't there two days after the strike. con't...

[EeRocKK]

@mrchipeater The regular people who show up at that spot had seen the video, and had a few questions for me. Neither the police nor CN did any follow up with me as they weren't really bound to, but the fawn didn't look like it was euthanized by either the CN nor the provincial police. As much as it is sad, I do believe the deer suffered and then died of internal bleeding - the very things that should abhor us. This one didn't have a happy ending. Thanks for watching all the same.

[AmtrakKid1]

O deer god

[minsterkiller123]

ownd my 2 trains in one day sad

[minsterkiller123]

o my od they killed derry(stan) you bastereds (kyle)

[tundrazwolf]

This sucks, but at least the engineer tried to get the little thing off the tracks by blowing the horn is short bursts and even slowing a bit. "Course it would take a train like that even at that relatively slow speed over a mile to fully stop, so there was nothing that could be done except hope the fawn would run to the side. The worst thing is that there is a lot of room under a train and it looks like the fawn was only wounded by something hitting it. It probably took a long time to die ;-(

[towlenWOW]

it sucks how it was kinda alright after the first train, it pops its head up and gets it hit again by the secon train :/

[skycaprob]

sorry got to be done 3:36 OVERKILL!!!!!

[skycaprob]

omg i was like whats he on about... i saw it run.. then i rewatched and im no in bit of shock after seeing little baby die :(

[silver2002ta]

haha smoked his ass!! is what I always say when I mow them fuckers down

[79supergasdriver]

Another perk of working for the railroad...free venison!

[TheClappingTrap]

i like how he said owned at the end

[EeRocKK]

@TheClappingTrap I guess you stopped watching after the hit...

[GusErlangga]

Better a train than a car.

[EeRocKK]

@GusErlangga I agree with you 100%! 

[serlon99]

Less deer on the road.

[AlexPGunn]

"Awwh owned"

[fartchunk]

all i was thinking was zooom in .. zoom IN!

[EeRocKK]

@fartchunk And I constantly think... damn! It sucks that this camera can't zoom in or out when recording!

[heubanks270]

@fartchunk seriously!



[robstein4eva]

awwwwwwww owned lmfao

[l235n3p5]

LOL OWNED HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

[MrDudeer]

dude you should of yelled and try to move them

[EeRocKK]

@MrDudeer It was too far away, and the train would have been louder than me anyway. The camera is zoomed in you know!

[MrDudeer]

@EeRocKK im a deer hunter, deer have 500 times the hearing ability we do. how far do you think you were? cause i have been in a big field and scared them 150 yards away and i was trying not to make much noise. so...

[EeRocKK]

@EeRocKK The comments were made for your criticisms though! I appreciate all comments! :)

I think it's Murphy's law working against us again. When you want to put a deer in the freezer, they'll hear ya two miles away... Shooting at the deer in the video wouldn't have scared it away and it's around 50 yards away... funny how that works!

[EeRocKK]

@MrDudeer The train was closer and louder. I would have been a squeak compare to the prime movers of the locomotives. When you scare a deer away at 150 yards, I'm guessing you're the only thing capable of making any noise for quite some distance. The only similarity between the scenario you present, and the proposition that I should have yelled at the deer is that there was a deer involved in both scenarios. Try to remember that I was filming the video as well, and knew what was going on.

[MrDudeer]

@EeRocKK srry, i couldnt here the train from the vid. and im not trying to crittisize you. btw i mainly hunt next to a road...

[dmncau]

good old CN emplyees they probably do not care

[DieselSmoke92]

sad but funny...great catch. When things like this happen, your just not sure if waving at the engineer is appropriate if you know what i mean...

[EeRocKK]

@DieselSmoke92 The engineer shrugged his shoulders. We all knew nothing could have been done. :(

[DieselSmoke92]

@EeRocKK Yup. btw aren't you sick of this typing lag? i type so fast it takes 30 minutes for the message to write LOL.

[pendolinokriscfc]

That first train is about as long as the United Kingdom! Never seen a train so long!

[EeRocKK]

@pendolinokriscfc CN runs trains 8000-10000 feet long on rare occasions. Those are always great to see, but maybe not so for the poor buggers waiting at level crossings. :)

[Shuunteed]

Peta's gonna sue that Train.

[EeRocKK]

@Shuunteed LOL! Yeah, I bet they don't like this video at all! :)

[ashe021182]

I can't believe you said Owned! LOL Sad but funny.....

[robertprocon]

so... the deer died or did he actually survive

[EeRocKK]

@robertprocon It was still alive when my son and I left the bridge. I live 5 minutes away, so I phoned the provincial police who said they would notify CN. I checked back the following day, and saw that it didn't make it. The coyotes must have claimed it the day after this video, because it wasn't there for a third day. The first train hit it with the snowplow, but folded the poor thing in two. I hope the CN police were the ones that brought it mercy after I phoned. I really don't know though.

[robertprocon]

@EeRocKK thx, i feel sorry for the poor thing:(

[EeRocKK]

@robertprocon Yeah, despite the fact that I said owned, I'll never unburn that from my mind. The three other deer that I didn't film were far worse though. It's just a bad spot for a deer/train combo because of the curve and the fact the VIAs are going 70-80 mph around it. Most deer scatter when they hear the horn, but if they freeze there, they don't stand a chance. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to happen too often, and I railfan at this bridge quite a bit. Thanks for watching. :)

[RyanMiller3039]

Take care of it as in dispatch it?

[EeRocKK]

@RyanMiller3039 Yes, most likely euthanasia by cop. It would have been more humane for the deer. The coyotes got theirs though, so the cycle of life continues. Thanks for watching.

[Envoy4Life]

Awww owned.

[jsuttonus]

The only tragedy in this video is only one deer got hit.

[EeRocKK]

@jsuttonus Well, if you like senseless death, this would be a pretty good area for you. There are tons of deer in the area too, and this is a choke point for all the trains going by. Thanks for watching!

[radudeATL]

Oh, deer...

[niselat]

@STFUDouchebags I read your hateful comment about abusing a cat. You make my argument for me. Presenting this tragedy as entertainment fuels people who relish animal abuse. It encourages you and makes you think it is okay because "everyone else' enjoys it. I speak up so your kind knows that is not true.

[niselat]

@STFUDouchebags he *glorified* the death of an animal and attempted to make it entertaining by posting a video of it on YouTube. Could he make the title more enticing?There are Community Guidelines against that for good reason. It excites the sick bastards you refer to and encourages them. And it puts all railfans in a bad light. What would you do if it had been a little kid down there, wring your hands and say "oh my, I would try to save him but that would be trespassing?"

[niselat]

@STFUDouchebags depicting animal abuse is against YouTube community guidelines. there are enough sick fucks out there, especially in Canada, without encouraging more

[Turboshiz1]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnn­nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn­nnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedddddd­dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd­dddddd 

[dylanbobby1]

I've seen a dear nearly got it, but not sure what happened. Dark, in my gparents back yard, hear engine roaring, hear something step in the ballast, saw a shadow, then a train coming. May have escaped. Maybe not.

[TinyBigNoob]

"aww owned" lol

[ryand245]

aww owned

[icewytevo]

owned bro

[niselat]

Not like you would go help it you stupid fuck. please teach that kid to hang around the tracks. hopefully it will be next. Reported for animal abuse

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Keep smoking your crack, dude. Thanks for watching.

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Gah! A comment like that from another railfan???? Come on, man! You know that's not animal abuse, you know it's federal trespassing charges if I go on the tracks, and it's probably even worse if I took my one year old baby boy on the tracks with me as well. You know trains cannot stop on a dime, and you should know that I went home and called the provincial police about this. Sorry about the crack smoking comment - I didn't know you were a railfan also... you should know better though.

[niselat]

You could have thrown a rock, yelled, whatever. And what rail fan is afraid to trespass? I practically live in the yards and have even been inside shops and freight houses. I would have been down on those tracks in an instant. I am sure the crews would have appreciated not suffering the trauma of killing those helpless animals.

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Who in the fuck do you think I am, man? That deer was around 50 yards away and I'm on a bridge with rocks the size of pebbles, and I am holding a one year old boy and a camera. The engineer shrugged his shoulders at me as the train went by so no cares there. The engineer hit a deer, not a person, so I don't think counselling is needed. You go ahead and risk federal trespassing - there's zero chances of me taking a baby on the tracks. Which railfans avoid trespassing? All of them.

[niselat]

@EeRocKK let's move on. maybe you could not have done anything about this because of your repressive Canadian laws. But you did not have to post it on YouTube. You did that solely because you thought watching an animal die was entertaining. I know your people don't care about animals but civilized nations do. this has no place here. Real railfans are not afraid to get the good shots no matter where they have to go.

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Sounds good to me. I don't have to post anything on YouTube for that matter; I do have a viewer discretion warning in the title. It's up to you, the viewer to censor yourself if you don't like these sorts of videos. I respect you for not liking animal death. I may have glorified deer death here, but believe me sir, I never want to see another deer get hit for as long as I live. Thanks for watching, and for commenting. I respect all opinions.

[niselat]

@EeRocKK GRAPHIC VIDEO- TRAGEDY, considering some of the YouTube audience, that is like saying "ATTENTION FLIES, LARGE PILE OF SHIT" Look at the asinine comments: "Set a cat on fire and throw it out a window." While I am an avid railfan, I also volunteer at an animal shelter. This crap is not so funny when you see the horrors of abuse firsthand. It is great you are teaching your boy to love trains. Hopefully you will teach him to respect life as well. Thanks for the debate

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Although I can't exactly speak for the YouTube audience whom I've enabled with this video, I promise to teach my boy respect for animals and people alike. Debates are always welcome. Please keep posting videos of that yard... they have some neat things there! Cheers man.

[EeRocKK]

@niselat Again, you should know better.

[21ricky666]

@niselat reported for animal abuse? lmao to who and how. dumbass.

[niselat]

@21ricky666 YouTube via the convenient drop down menu

[stevemckenna007]

Oh deer

[perkjc01]

Looked like the American people with the Obama Express bearing down on them.

[EeRocKK]

@perkjc01 LMAO! Good one!

[perkjc01]

@EeRocKK Why, thank you! Have a great Thanksgiving.

[EeRocKK]

@perkjc01 Thanks! You too! There will be another train wreck this evening - me on the couch after turkey! Can't wait! :D

[hippygrass]

And CN did.. A bullet in it's brain

[niko60219]

ahhh owned

[NsTrainMan07]

It should say "a insult on injury..."

[NsTrainMan07]

Not only a train but 2!!!

[meanixmacen6]

owned really

[NsTrainMan07]

DAMN DEER!!!! DAMNIT THATS WHAT IT GETS!!

[Pararescue123]

BAMBIE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[angelgirl7473]

deer is so stupid stands right there,..

[EeRocKK]

@angelgirl7473 The deer was stupid cause it didn't run to the side, but ran parallel to the tracks in front of the train... ahhh, if only it understood... no matter now! Thanks for watching!

[tysgirl13]

You were so worried and sad that was so cute, then you hear OWNED....lmao!!

[EeRocKK]

@tysgirl13 You guys are never going to let me live that down, are ya? Thanks for watching!

[trbfshmn]

@EeRocKK , damn right , OWN IT, lol trb

[prdawg215]

You should of thrown a rock at the deer u dum di-k. Now the baby deer is dead. ur fault!!!!!!!!!!!

[EeRocKK]

@prdawg215 Maybe if I was an olympic athlete! My best rock throw would have fallen at

least 50 feet short of the deer, and the rocks on the bridge are mere

pebbles. I would have been hard pressed to hit it with a slingshot for that

matter! Don't think that didn't cross my mind...

[EeRocKK]

@prdawg215 LOL!

[xPetsAreForLifex]

SERIOUISLY HOW LONG IS THIS FREAKING TRAIN?!?

[default919]

aww owned lol

[CPWindsorsub]

Lmao, we were talking about this today @ Denfeild lol

[radix7508]

This happens all the time, the animal parts get all tangled up in the traction motors and stink really bad later on.  Not a whole lot the drivers can do.

[EeRocKK]

@radix7508 The best thing I saw a driver do was blow the horn very sharply but a short blast (VIA P42DC), then kill the headlights and blow the horn again. The deer scattered immediately without headlights to stare in. Brilliant thinking.

[darkwolf6052]

BAMBI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Noooo!!!!!

[EeRocKK]

@darkwolf6052 LOL!

[xPetsAreForLifex]

@darkwolf6052 NOT FUNNY! MY RABBItS CALLED BAMBI LOL

[flyinasscritter]

its a deer - there are milions more -

[EeRocKK]

@flyinasscritter right you are, sir! Thanks for watching!

[o0oSN1P3Ro0o]

@flyinasscritter Yeah, so their worth more than humans.
