HiDef: Mexicans, Canadians, Great EMD: Right Before New Years on the NS Harrisburg Line

KCS, TFM, CP, CEFX, exConrail, EMD like SD40-2's, GP38-2's, and roaring SD70M-2's...even an SD45-2 makes an appearence, all in the 3 days before New Years! If you include the UP in the last video, and the BNSF in the upcoming video, it has been quite a diverse holiday. To everyone here, Happy New Years! Enjoy!

You shot the 19G GOOD, what are you talking about from before?! I didn't see anything wrong with it, you even got some nice light on it too.

[o00o00ozy]

Haha, but he's in like notch 1, I would have rather have him THROTTLING like mad, like the 65J I caught. You know I keep HIGH standards, hehe. I'm thawing out after chasing a military train...

[csxcw44ac]

Great shot's, not meaning to be picky but you say H33 in the video while H48 in the description.

[o00o00ozy]

The description is always correct. I'm glad to see people actually reading the description, thanks.

[hellkatan]

nice video but just to let you know the engine you thought was an sd45 is really a gp50 our 7000 numbers

[o00o00ozy]

Uh no, 1703 is an SD45-2 (rebuilt with a 16-645-E3).

[Erodriguez96]

@o00o00ozy did you notice the crazy eights in the cp locomotive?

[cheechchongfan97]

Very nice video!

[Cristianoefc]

[dfhohj]

[NS6677]

[xXDJIndeedXx]

we have a old ex-Alton & Southern Railroad SW1500 that works a line over here and it has a horn that i haven't heard anywhere's else lol,but it kind of sounds like this one here.

[TheCbreton]
