  • Good sounding EMDs !

  • Thanks!

  • Not to high jack your video xxxDeath9572xxx But years ago living south of the Greensburg Pa the best time I had was watching, and waiting as those coal trains stalled out just before the top of the grade in those snow storms, and the sounds of those F-9s the Engineer & Breakmen was the frist time I ever seens grown men cry.lol Bitching those F-words, and throwing rocks at the lead unit... A chapter never written, and printed in a PRR history book

    Thanks for your nice reply about my videos!

  • Why would i ever do such a thing! I understand and it had to have been a fantastic sight.. Its been a dream of mine to see a Loaded coal in a snow storm through here.. But, I'd trade today for that period of time..

  • I grew up in Southwest Pa, Lived next to the SWPA railroad back in the 60's when coal was king of the railroads, and I remember walking faster than the trains where moving up the 2 % grades. The freight locomotives where F-units, and GP-9's Now those coal trains with 6 lead units, and 5 mid unit helpers.But even with that much power those coal trains would stall if God forbid ran out of sand! That my friend is railfan railroading at it's best.

    So to me anything NS is boring as Hell.

  • Oh Most Certainly so! i cannot imagine the sounds given through times like that... Only if today was like that

see all
