wow, for a minute i thought that horn in the background of the 1988 vid was the Katy herself. i am officially jealous man, she came through my area in the dark. (5 am to be exact) :(
which area is that? This is my first Heritage Unit. Now i need a perfect sunny shot of one. Chuck has us beat. He has seen more. Have you not seen any?
Hey man you're luck you even GET those things out there, you really have no idea how much I'd kill to see that or any of those units, considering theres a 0.0000001% chance I'll see one of those out here in the east!
1:35 how long can your camera zoom? I could see the train behind that one!
That crossing West of the crossovers is where i hang out the most. The signal bridges were still standing here the last time i was there (about a month ago)
UP has trackage rights on the BNSF but only a hand full of trains goes this way. This winter hardly any has went by and this was an exception. It's kind of rare to see a heritage unit run this way because of the small amount of UP trains we get. My camcorder is 35x optical zoom
It's not a scanner. It's a amateur radio. My Yeasu FT60R dual band radio. 2m/70cm amateur radio bands and covers the other bands like a scanner does. makes great scanner. good sensitivity and better selectivity then a scanner.
at the top of the hill at the highway bridge is where i'm going to be shooting this spring. I already got some shots from there to see what it's like.
Nice video!
