Great video. Those logs must be headed for a pole mill. They're too straight to be wasted on dimensional lumber, or - heaven forbid - pulp.

@bluecomet390 Thanks, yes they are nice logs. I just saw another load go past my house today

Certainly a very good video Ervan, does PW only use old locomotives? Because the locomotives that BNSF and UP have looks a bit newer than those in this train. I like the olde ones better though. Thumbs up

[ervans]

@Jonern67 Thanks Jonern, yes they are old ones

Terrific Video Ervan. There sure were a lot of cars being shipped with no tie down straps. That railroad is taking a gamble the loads wont shift. A mistake I think

[ervans]

@pwalpar Thanks Walter, it did look like the loads could slip with no ties

[ervans]

@JayJr2007 Thanks, there goes the forest

@ervans; except for few like at 1.49, 2.02 ,2.22, 2.37, 3.02, 3.12, 3.16 all the rest looks like to have moved. I first thought that they were stacked that way but there are atleast 7 cars that were stacked properly

Somewhere on the internet, a woodchuck just passed out.

A hard coupling can very easily shift a load that's not secured
