  • @nprsux I have made this run with my grandfather. He was an engineer with CSX when he retired in the '80s. he ran from connellsville to Md. for 45 years. Had a chance when I was you to become an engineer but was too young and stupid. Beautiful corner of gods country.

  • @nprsux - Thanks for the symbol info! I never even noticed the truck - nice eye

  • great video foley is an awesome location in case you're wondering the manifest train is Q-359 and you can hear it calling signals in the video twice and the intermodal is Q-130 you can hear the dispatcher talking to the train as it approaches and i've never heard that detector on csx before and do you notice the pickup truck driving down the dirt road on the other side of the tracks while Q-359 is passing through

  • @NS6677 - Glad you liked it :)
