Great job.  Why can't I ever catch stuff like this anyway?

Thats a great vid! Lotsa horn action! Well done bud!

@tjmfishing Those export units have different couplers than the regular North American type. I think those flat cars are equipped with both sets, so one end can hook up to the engine, while the other end can hook on to the euro engines....I think.

[tjmfishing]

Are the flatcars on either end there for braking purposes?

I guess he was "honk happy" ;)

Btw nice catch!

That's really nice! I wish the American and Canadian railroads would acquire a few GM Class 66s.
