Don't tell anyone.

Told ya I was fronting like I am really doing something big. Train was just going slow! LOL

[LKwood58]

Cool video man, decent vocals too... LOL! As for the rail vs. train.... it still takes a truck to get the loads to and from the rail yards.

[lifeasatrucker]

that's right. We in here! No matter what,

Just no way to replace the truck!

[panero09]

[lifeasatrucker]

ah man they will teach you that one in trucking school! :-)

[Grumpy7783]

@maousn75 i totally agree with you man while these guys sit at rest areas and truck stops sleeping the night away the railroad is still running .I thought about going truck driving whenever i get out of the Navy but i'm going to apply at UP or CSX maybe NS. Don't know yet

[soolinefan1]

[nomadnametab]

just imagine how fast he could talk if he was on bennies! lol

[hdavis37090]

that train is pulling way more weight than you ever could at a way lower cost per mile. Also reduced emissions as well.

[csxns]

Why dont you get hit by that train your 18 wheeler is a baby toy to that train.

[GEES44DC]

Problem here is you don't have 14000 feet of double stacked trailers behind you like some trains do.

[GeorgiaRailroader]

Nice try. We rule the road, not trucks. True we need trucks to take the goods to the stores, warehouses ect. but we move waaaaay move volume than you could ever dream of. Lay off that shit, it's rotting your brain.

@Newfieguy89 just think how busy roads would be if train traffic stop, I as well as you probably wouldn't like traffic jams.

[CSXRockford]

@Newfieguy89

And just think how much more crowded the roads would be.

[CSXRockford]

ALL i see tis a train that is haul 100X more loads than you. plus how many trains do you see sleeping at a rest area after the driver has used his hours for the day,

[Namerifrats]

Yeah, but whatcha got back there? 20 tons worth of a load??? lol, one railcar weights about 35 tons empty. Average around 80-100 tons of freight/commodity per car. Take 150 car loads on a single train.....haul as much on one train as you will for the better part of your career.
