great video love the yellow engines ...how long since you had cabooses?we lost ours in the late 1980's on most class 1 rr's. i was a clerk for norfolk southern in USA. what governs the movement of your trains? train orders? trains signals? both?

[NThusiast]

hello, Thanks!

I think the last cabooses (sort of) were in the 1950s, but not very common in Eurpoe.

train movements are normally controlled electronically from interlocking towers, if that´s what you mean.

bei 5:25 , das ist doch eine British Steel Class 66, oder?

[NThusiast]

nicht British steel, die ist von GM EMD (General Motors Electro-Motive Division), gebaut in London/Ontario, Kanada

Great video! Nice to see class 55 is still used on this line. I was thinking of going to Gemmenich/Reinartzkehl too this Saturday but finally I didn't because I was afraid of only seeing class 28.

[NThusiast]

thanks! These two locos were the only 55s I saw. But the 28´s are indeed getting boring very fast if it´s the only stuff you see there ...

[rongenman]

yes, that is what i mean, we used to have first class trains, second class, extras, and work trains, now they run on track warrants, in other words a train has right to hold main track between point a and point b.

[Energyzer84]

this is RIGHT !!!!

Diesel Power rocks!!

 Electric is too boring.

If you realy like Belgian trains, you should visit dendermonde. Great variaty of freight trains and commuter trains, from national and international entreprises like NMBS, SNCF, Crossrail and ECR. It's not a spot paradise but certainly very interesting. Keep up the good videos, grtz Vito
