B&LE 905-907-901 are in the 8th notch, and the sand is flying as it lifts a heavy south bound iron ore train under the signals, then I80 north of Grove City, PA. at mp 66. The B&LE is now owned by the CN along with the DM&IR.

  • Wow, Geballte Kraft.

    Das Wummern der Motoren, das ist Musik für mich !

  • @MrSpeziguzi Sie tun gut klingen, wenn sie hart arbeiten. Nichts wie Berg Eisenbahn, und hart arbeitenden Lokomotiven. Dank für das Ansehen ...

    They do sound great when they are working hard. Nothing like mountain railroading, and hard working locomotives. Thanks for watching...

  • How busy is BLE my dad and i want to go out there to check them out.

  • @LenaVideos Not very busy! Maybe one each way a day. CN has done a fine job ripping this railroad apart, as they did to the DM&IR...

  • Nice! I caught B&LE 907 in southern ontario a few weeks ago, in original paint! Got a video of it on my channel.

  • @1jackdk It's all about profit at the expense of everything.

  • oh ok ur right now that i took another look @ the vid ur right it was sand. Ty for the clearfication..

  • @Johnny64ism

    Was sand being sprayed at the traction wheels. Giving better adhesion and preventing wheel slip.

  • I hear something evil sounding starting at :26 starts off "well ok" then "will hatch tonight" and starting :28 "my dearest of engines" then a bunch of laughter. I used the matrix surround function on my Logitech 5.1"s. I couldn't quite hear in 2.0??

  • Love the sound of EMD turbos in run 8! Thanks for sharing!

  • Correction, These all were upgraded to SD45T-3's by the B&LE.

  • Right you are 1jackdk: CN has done a fine job of destroying the DM&IR. They bought it for the Interstate branch and don't give a crap about the rest of it. CN is a pox on railroading.
