AWVR...Unstoppable. Proof that there are twin locomotive sets.

The best I have been able to get, and probably the best I'll ever get, showing that there are twin sets of engines. So here is 777 & 767 and the twin set. Filmed starting on Route 155 south of Port Allegany, PA and ending a little ways away in Port. 09-28-09 around noon. The movie is based on this incident http://kohlin.com/CSX8888/index.htm

It is obvious they exsist. They were in the film + AWVR is a real company; allegheny and west virginia railroad or something like that.

@intercity112255 Where in the movie did you see locomotives 777 and 767 and at the same time a second set of locomotives 777 and 767?

@CimarronWestfolk so the second 2 locos u show r the real locos?

[CimarronWestfolk]

@imaghostbuster36 The 777 & 767 sets are both real. The only prop locomotives they made were for the two that flipped over. Now they did have a prop cab of the 777. I have that in other videos.

wow proof that there are multiple train engines with the same numbers. Did you know there were also over 300 General Lees. Its called Movie Magic. They always have multiple vehicles made identical. So if one breaks (or gets wrecked) they just bring another in. For trains its harder to mock one up quick so they had multiple units parked close together. In real railroading no 2 engines on the same railroad should have the same number. Its like a licence plate.

@kwloverhoss The point was that up to this time the two sets of engines were not anywhere near to each other. They were always miles apart doing filming using each set at the same time. They didn't have them for replacement purposes as in say the General Lee's case. On this day they DID have them close enough to show that there were two sets. As you note locomotives each have their own number. That's why it was great to get a shot of something you just don't see.

They had a total of 9 locomotives. Not counting the 2 fake prop locomotives that they built and blew up in Emporiun.

Also there was a fake prop AWVR 777 that had 2 front axles and was pushed by a hi-railer...that was used for the failed planned scenes....
