Dude, i Do believe that all Three Engines on this train are GE U Boats, Nothing like the smooth sound of the Cooper Bessimer FDL V16 :) :) That Engine will shake the very heart of you when they are idling :) the First and third Engines are C30-7's The middle one is an older Cab less U18 B. I think???
Having seen these engines everday, HESR 5086 & CMGN 5175 have S5T's None of the Railamerica GP38-2's & HESR GP40-2W # 9712 Have Leslie's HESR 9712 has a K5LA
4:56 I remember recording that when I was 11 (i think i was 11). Man, my mom was driving me somewhere... and we saw that exact train and she took me to another crossing to watch it go by. I got it on video.
Great video nice to see others videos from my area, I see these trains all the time so a view from someone else is always nice. Other than that just two of the daily trains that run Bay City everyday.
great to see you got up in my neck of the woods. I live about 500 feet from the HESR yard. 1171 is not of MKT heritage however. it is as follows. FURX 1171, Ne TM 1171, Nee CSXT 6568, Neee C&O 3793
A very nice ABA set of dash 7's and a great sounding leslies in both trains...great video

The ex-BN and ex-BNSF units were awesome! But, the horn on the former BN unit was amazing!

That's right, it was a Mexican engine.
CSX6000 2 years ago
yes, all the 1100's on the LSRC came from FURX and all the FURX came from TM and are GP40M-3's

@Tcaauwe2002 dude! There is no "ne, nee, neee"! "Nee" (with 2 Es) means "born as", 1171 is ex-TM 1171, ex(x)-CSXT 6568, nee C&O 3793.
