  • Very nice video, great ambient sound and well shot. It's a hard call in this situation, since it's taken in the railroad right-of-way (property), so RR can "ask you to leave" if safety is a concern. Lots of risk with that heavy equipment and a precariously positioned locomotive. Pity, do you think they'd allow you to remain (escorted) in return for a copy of the documentary footage?

  • @campy9sp Thank you. It all depends on the person in charge.. Most of the time they don't mind and set a "boundary". Then there are the times when the person in charge becomes a dictator and refuses to listen.

  • had this accident been recorded like 30minutes earlier, this vid would have been much more interesting

  • Sounds like a training video.

  • Thank God for Hulcher!

  • Why did BNSF have to crash that sweet power!!!

  • I liked the music in the beginning, it made me feel so informed, but then the music stopped, so I stopped watching.

  • @TheCommenter01 - Wait wait wait!...

    This...is the news leader: WVX-2 eyewitness news. Hi, I'm Digitan and we begin tonight with breaking news. Two trains have derailed this afternoon near Vader. We're taking a live look now at repair efforts underway. Officials say casualties could be in the millions, making it the worst train wreck this weekend.

    In other news: Is your puppy overweight? WVX-2 has the answer after the break...

  • wooooooooooooow...

  • I bet this is the work of Lord Vader (WA)

  • @misterbonzai08 or Palpatine

  • woah woah woah... there's a vader Washington and no one told me?

  • most of the time its a side boom basiclly a big cat dozer kinda like what a pipeliner would use. two or three on each side. then rerail what ever they can put on flat cars what they cant and get it back in service.

  • i hope they have something bigger to move that

  • americans dont have a clue

  • @SCHRANZ3040 And exactly what does your comment mean? You're an idiot.

  • can you imagine the ass chewing the area trainmaster & dispatcher got for this? 0_0

  • The title should have included the word AFTERMATH to be more honest.

  • Like a good neighbor State farm is there with 2 new trains!

  • awesome!

  • DARK VADAR!!!! LIVES IN WASHINGTON!!!!!

  • Did the conductor and engineer got hurt?

  • well darth vader was here i can tell

  • Raw video; yet interesting.

  • humm must be government workers. yep there is this giant train here and I'm going to pick up this little piece of steel and hand it off. while 3 other guys watch.

  • @ 1:48 yay! i won!

  • There are only 2 forces capable of destroying a train. Another train and mother nature. This is not boring in the least to me.

  • how do they fix this. do they dismantle the train or do the bring in a big crane on rails?

  • @rattytheraccoon From what a PIO explained to me, crane on rails and haul it out. If sound enough, rerail & pull out.

  • @VX2100DV Makes sense to me. Thanks for the info.

  • @rattytheraccoonI've seen it done, it's very cool. They have a very big crane, either on rails or a tracked crane on a flatbed that can be offloaded. It has a sliding counterweight to balance the load depending on weight & boom extension. As the locomotive is being lowered onto the tracks, the last little bit of alignment is done by a couple of guys just pushing it. It's amazing that a man (or 3) can swing that much mass. (Gotta watch your toes! :-)

  • What a mess.

  • @RAlgarJr This is the only video shot of the scene. No one else took the time to hike into this location. It was deep in the woods not visible from any road. I covered this for ABC.

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Yeah! Now THAT'S what I call a good video! You have the background as what it actually is! You can not only see what's going on, but you can hear it as well! Makes me feel like I'm there, looking out a cat window! Do you have any more of the cleanup of this wreck? I believe I'd like to see the side-grabber cats at work, to set the unit back on the trucks, that is after the maint of way crew gets the track back in place! Thanks for taking time to make and post this video! Did you work for a RR?

  • @MrPicStuff Thank you. Sorry that's all I was able to get before they asked me to leave. Not an RR employee. News Photog.

  • @btp98w Thank you!

  • our top story today is...train!

  • @originalgrump100 why dont u shut the fuck up who the fuck do u think u are if anything ur the fucking stupid 1 its so fucking obvious that this train will topple and i know about elevation

  • Can i have that 730 to put in my basement layout ;)

  • no wonder thesr american trains derail all the time just look at the wagon still on the tracks 2 conainers on top of 1another its waiting to topple over

  • @kratos32godofwar these trains with two containers stacked on top of each other is a normal thing in America or at least the good old USofA. Not quite sure where you are from. The containers are locked into the well of the car then the 2nd container is locked in place on top of the first one. Sometimes they even put a third container on top of the second. I am a freight conductor and have been on many trains with the two container setup.

  • sumones in trouble

  • the engineer and the conductor fell asleep and ran into the back of a u.p train.

  • @comstocktanner000 - what, no vigilance control or "dead man's handle"?

  • "My old man is a television repairman; he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix this."

  • ehhh, i could buff out them scratches in my workshop.

  • This was obviously due to the dark side of the force.

  • Nice parking job, never seen a loco spun around 90 degrees and still upright!

  • i have a video of a BNSF engine aftermath crash see my video response

  • hmm I think the train won

  • My stuff was in that container on the ground!!!

  • did they die?

  • Please change the title to "Post - Train vs Train With Derailment - Vader WA "

  • That train is fucked

  • @nuclearthreat545 ya THAT train IS fucked

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

  • surprisingly bnsf, doesnt have too many wrecks... csx on the other hand, has them every day it seems like

  • omg.... that must have been a bad crash...

  • Once I saw a train derail right when we were dirving in a car to my gramma's house. I also once saw a train hit a car when we were going swimming

  • BNSF has some nice looking trains, i loved the screeching comeing threw to my turtle beaches it felt great for my ears. poor train is cryin.

  • look up some SPSF kodachrome engines and you'll think different. BNSF looks terrible compared to the SPSF

  • i live in vader and i saw that shit!!!! it was epic

  • I have alot of pics of BNSF derails, i may agree with druidess99

  • It's just the clean up

  • i love how the crickets know right when to chirp. at the sight of a HUGE accident

  • Oh thank God. I thought they were in my house!

  • i kow dont you hate when you have a cricket or crickets in yur house an you can hear em but look for em and cant tell where theyr comin from ha

  • Love the crickets!!! Sad about the accident though.

  • is it just me or does BNSF seem to derail a lot of its trains?

  • It's just you. BNSF is a massive railroad moving massive tonnage or thousands of miles of track. As a result, there will be accidents and some of these will make headlines.

    But all in all, given the amount of freight hauled, BNSF does an amazing job

  • Two trains play chicken, neither one blinks. Film @ 11

  • why dident you show me that in the first place

  • head on apply directly to the forhead

  • epic win

  • It'll buff out.

  • The crickets add a peaceful touch...

  • love the crickets chirpin..

    gives it the real life in person exerience

  • Look @ 1:21..nice move :-)

  • @Harti2000

    yaa...like a grandma taking the support of table to get up..

  • @Harti2000

    Easy move ;-)

  • lol he moved to florda too lol

  • Vader. Jesus, what a place. When the townsfolk renamed it from "Little Falls" they chose to call it Vader after a local German immigrant. His reaction was that he was so furious that he swore at them and left, saying he'd never return. He kept his word.

    Just some bad ju-ju in that place.

  • Nice Video, no unnecessary music or narration - just video - too many videos these days are ruined with credits (opening & closing) Loud Music and video effects, that's what I think anyway.

  • I agree 100%! It was a pleasure to find one like this that was still pure.

  • @toddcfghjk

    i agree 100%.

    between that and ads, i hardly watch some peoples vids.

    and good job on this one!!!

    like & fav!

  • Darth Vader did it lol

  • Those poor EMDs!

  • How do you get a Locomotive to be horizontal with the tracks?

  • You mean perpendicular to?  Two words: buff forces.

  • Thank you and nice job, I couldn't have imagine the noise from the impact , did anyone get injured?

  • thats nice that you were able to get good video, not just photos....Good job...

  • Thank you.

  • C'mon!!! Vader, Washington?

    LMAO

    Might as well blame this wreck on the Imperial Stormtroopers ha!

  • Washington state is so beautiful!

  • Exciting video !!!

    NOT !

  • why do people want 2 place bad words on here

  • its internet, get used to it :/

    they can hide their ugly small faces behind the computer and be cocky wich they cant do irl. thats why

  • Why is it always BNSF that fucks shit up.

  • The crickets chirping in the background are quite fitting...

  • I fell asleep watching this.

    --

  • What a mess.

  • sigh...i got all exited...

  • leave it to the BN

  • WTF?

  • mmmm some hot glue should fix the problem it looks like the guy made the wrong trun

  • yes, i agree, but hot glue sucks what you need is super glue, the high bonding one in small tube liquid haha

  • ....Editied with FinalCut

  • I actually think he just used the original iMovie...

  • Oh, I was only saying that because of the music. Apple inc. sucks anyway

  • Your right that music is from Apple. I strongly disagree that Apple inc. sucks, I would actually say that Apple is amazing but that is my personal opinion.

  • I use Adobe Premiere CS4. It absolutely is opinion.

  • that diger moves well funny

  • Im guessing you mean the earth mover, but yer its called crab steer. Makes turning such vehicles a lot easier on a work site. Also very strange to drive at first, but kool

  • I hate gay fags..eh Tommy, God din't create Adam and Steve, he created Adam and EVE..tapette de calisse

  • be careful what u say, gayboytommy's gonna be waitin behind ya bins!!!

  • i really think there is something wrong with you gayboytommy

  • yes, the first thing is : he's gay!

  • im sick of hearing the music thats at the beggining of this

  • Good footage....

  • Thank you.

  • wow it took the rails and wheeles with it

  • How do repair crews move a train that has come off the tracks? How much does one of those engines weigh?

  • something like 200,000 + lbs .Its a lot, Ever wreck is different but craines , winches , jacks and linning bars and alot of grunting.
