Too Much Fun on the CSX Folkston Funnel.
#Trains #Railroads (2/23/24)
If you're a railfan in the Southeast, you'll inevitably hear of the CSX Folkston Funnel. Infamous for its Railwatch, heavy CSX and Amtrak activity, and its railcams, Folkston is a top bucket list location for many train enthusiasts. And it's about time that I head down there. Accompanied by @iceclimberGD and @atlantaterminalproductions5167, I finally made the journey deep into south Georgia to visit the renowned Folkston Funnel, visiting many other spots along the way, finding lots of surprises, and ultimately getting much more than I had bargained for. I hope y'all are ready. ;)
@CSXAC4400CWno5112 and @BNSFBishop, appreciate you both for letting me use some of your media for the CaterParrot Railnet part of the video.
And Damian (hope I spelled that right), if you see this, it was a pleasure meeting you, man. Appreciate all your help. Stay safe out there, my friend.
As for the rest of y'all, God bless. I'll see you soon, out on the High Iron.

#Trains #Railroads (2/9/24) A certified “Never a Dull Moment” classic, my friends. After already coming across some very unexpected MOW work and a bluebird AC4400CW in Buford, I voyaged to Norcross to meet up with the main man, @ThatModelGuyGA. And of course, we got an update some something special coming, and then to add more to the specialty of this day an unexpected defect caused a stop and ...

#Trains #Railroads (2/9/24) It's not everyday when you head trackside and one of the coolest things you see isn't even anything riding the rails. Fortunately for me, today was one of those days as I happened across an interesting set of active MOW equipment while on the search for some elusive mainline action. I very often only see MOW equipment parked and sitting in wait for a crew to eventual...

#Trains #Railroads (2/2/24) Most of y'all, when you think of a train, may envision huge high-horsepower locomotives, 15 feet tall and 70 feet long pulling trains up to two miles long across the country. However, the cars that these big trains pull eventually have to end up to small customers, small customers that may not have the space or money to be using conventional train locomotives for the...

#Trains #Railroads (2/2/24) For decades, General Electric "Genesis" locomotives have been powering the majority of Amtrak trains across the United States. Built to be streamlined, high-horsepower engines, these units have been the backbone of Amtrak's operations for over the last 20 years. However, these units are past their prime, and with an increased demand for faster service and cleaner emi...

#Trains #Railroads (1/13/24) You have to love when the plans actually leave the chat. Such was the case for me and @ThatModelGuyGA, who found ourselves running all across North Georgia in search of trains, seeing unfamiliar sights and visiting unfamiliar places. Honestly, considering how long we were out, we didn't see that many trains volume-wise. However, with a Loram SPS Slot train, a 60 MPH...

#Trains #Railroads (1/6/24) If you know me, you know that I typically prefer railfanning by myself, having my own quiet time with just the trains rolling by and no randoms screaming in the back (if you know, you know).

#Trains #Railroads (1/5/24) What should've been a chill afternoon at Buford, GA, turned into a very heated situation when a fire broke out down the street of my location.

#Trains #Railroads (12/26/23 - 1/5/24) Railfanning on the surface seems like one of the less exciting hobbies to enjoy. What's so entertaining about sitting trackside for hours waiting for a train that'll take maybe three minutes to pass? Well, in my experience, railfanning is as fun as you make it, and with a little bit of unexpected encounters and some good company, you can have the time of y...

#Trains #Railroads (12/27/23) Believe it or not, crews aren't always occupying the head locomotives. Sometimes, they're not even riding their train. On a cold evening out by the rails, we get to see an example of this with a broken down train and a crew needing to leave. Though this is something I've seen in the past, I hope you guys enjoy this more complete look at the practice of "deadheading...

#Trains #Railroads (12/22/23) If you're a railfan in the Southeast, you've most certainly heard of the Hartwell Railroad, the most random amalgamation of old locomotives you'll ever find. Their roster ranges from Conrail to the DRGW, and this rare collection of units you won't find anywhere else has made the Hartwell a must-see for many railfans. I am one of those railfans, and thus I made a vo...
