Oh believe me, the things I would do for CSX to take the GP40's they have all OVER the railroad and pair em up to shove instead of the GEVO's they used to use... They really havn't been doing much pushing, and if they HAVE...I sure havn't heard jack about it!!
Well, these tracks dont pass through actually cities, they travel along the edges and traffic is seperatly beside them.. There are a few crossings, but no towns to go slow through.. Why? Cause all the populated area's are up on the hills, and the tracks follow the Monogahela River through here..
I love seeing those old style Pennsy signals in action!! It is sorta strange seeing the "manned helpers" like on the rear of this train... but they do that a lot up there... never see in down here or in west or SW...!!
They are a kind of thing to say as, " catch them as you can ".. because NS is slowly getting rid of these. The Manned helper thing is a pretty big requirement up here, where in the Alleghines the grades go over 2%
Nice video man, love that 1L bell... You even got the little blue switchers right above the NS GEVOs.
