AC's Trains
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 24 ธ.ค. 2018
Hello Everyone! Welcome to my channel! My name is Andrew, and I am a railfan based out of Rome, GA. On this channel, you will find primarily train videos and railroad crossing videos but will also post other kinds of content from time to time, such as wooden train videos and NWS severe weather alerts. As of 07/30/24, I have recorded trains in the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Minnesota, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. I do plan to venture out to other states to do some railfanning there as well. I also have a second channel with the name "AC's Trainz," where I upload stuff from the games Roblox and Trainz 2019 when I feel like it.

Vine Street Railroad Crossing #1, Decatur, AL
*originally recorded on 7/25/24*
Signal on the left: 3 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights with Leotek EV Series LEDs, 1 pair of Safetran 12x20 inch lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs, a WCH mechanical bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and RECO gate lights.
Signal on the right: 1.5 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs, 1 Safetran 12x20 inch light with a Leotek EV Series LED, a dead Safetran mechanical bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and RECO gate lights.
After catching the first five trains at Decatur, I decided to reposition my camera to record the crossing for the next train. The next (which ended up being my last train) train, which was CSX M648, went through about 30 minutes later. After it cleared, we stayed for a couple of more minutes, and then went back home.
Nothing much has really changed since @freebrickproductions last recorded this crossing; unfortunately, though, the Safetran bell is pretty much dead again. Hopefully NS may give it another tune-up, but I wouldn't really be surprised if it gets replaced with an e-bell in the near future.

Recording dates: All trains - 7/25/24 On July 25th, for my friend @KeeganStevens ' birthday, we went up to Decatur, AL to railfan for the day. We saw in total 6 trains (5 of which are in this video, the 6th is going to be in the next one after this) in total, which wasn't bad. I had fun and would like to make a return trip someday.

Great video! Nice to see you made it out to my area, unfortunately I believe I was prepping for my trip to the Carolinas at the time, lol. It seems NS has tuned-up the bell a bit again, as I filmed the crossing recently (from the WCH side) and the Safetran was working, at least somewhat, again. Were you able to check-out Moulton Street, or did y'all just hang-out at Vine Street on this trip?
1:12 There's Me Running
Yep
May I Screenrecord This?
Sure
What's That 2nd To Last Car?
I don't really know, as that's the first time I've seen one like it.
@@ACs_Trains Same
Beautiful video
@@octoberdawn1087 Thanks!
RIP NS 5349 (Originally Conrail 8192) 1978-2024
It got scrapped?
That horn is most likely fouled, I currently have yet to catch it leading, I only caught it once in December of 2023 and it was trailing along with C40-8W 7766.
Yeah, I could've figured it probably was.
9756 Is A Whiteface If I'm Not Mistaken
Great video and catch! Also glad to still see nothing's changed to the classic SOU signals there at Lindale.
Thanks! Same, I'm glad they've remained unchanged as well.
Bro what’s with the camera position?
Great Catch
@@zachbates6541 Thanks!
Yours welcome good sir
Great catch! Love the K3 it’s got!
Thanks!
0:58 Rare Unrepainted AC4460CW
Still Jealous
I Still Have My Photo Of NS 4000 On My Tablet
I Miss The ATSF Warbonnet's
Correction: The 3rd Unit Is 3058 Not 3068
Fixed.
That's A Weird Sounding K5LLA
CSX Using 8,000HP For Like 20 Cars, Truly Impressive CSX Edit: I Remembered That The ES40DC's Have 4,000HP So It Actually Be 8,000HP Total Not 8,800HP
Yeah, I don't really know why the train was that short.
My favorite!
Yep!
Gotta Love the Sound of that 16-710!
If you want to know the reason why they replaced the cantilever and the gate is because someone hit it back in August 2023.
I actually noticed it on 6/12/2023
I saw the other side gone and took pictures. I was wondering what happened so i asked.
If any of you guys are looking for the SD70M-2 in this video, it's at 1:04:48.
Great video and nice crossing! Shame the one cantilever there was replaced. No changes to Church Street?
Thanks! No changes from what I could see.
CSX L684
I Saw This Train
Sorry About The Talking
Great video! The original bell appears to have been WRRS, based on the latch visible in the video.
Thanks!
Here's a video I found from 2007 where the old WRRS bell can briefly be heard in case you were curious as to what it sounded like. It can be heard at 1:21 here: th-cam.com/video/LCCgWJBtK40/w-d-xo.html
Great video, crossing, and catch!
Thanks!
I Caught This Train At 12th Street
UPDATE: 3051 has been Repainted as the new Pere Marquette HU
Wasn't CSX 3299 was involved in a derailment?
1:09-1:12 The Audio Cuts Out
It didn't actually cut out, I cut it out because another railfan that was there at the time was talking in a somewhat foam-like manner.
@@ACs_Trains That Railfan Was Kinda Annoying
Cool catch, equipment was from 2nd Battalion 43rd Air Defense Artillery Regiment (2-43 ADA) from Fort Bliss, TX heading to Charleston, SC before heading to Al Dhafra Air Base, United Arab Emirates as part of Operation Enduring Freedom - Spartan Shield.
Thanks!
@@ACs_Trains You're welcome any time I see a military train I attempt to ID it.
What kind of horn is this?
To me it sounded like some fouled K5LLA.
Love that Nathan P5 Horn!
Yeah it sounds pretty good.
Nice catch and K5LA
Thanks!
Nice catch
Thanks!
Small g88 that day
Yeah it was
This was funny lol
Yeah
I got m580 today my only train in Marietta today as I got there I couldn’t get it on camera
!!!Nice video. Super!!!

Nice!
Thanks!
The leader has a raised letter K5HL forward facing!
I actually didn't initially know that, that's interesting!
Well done getting 9551! I just got it leading today. Greetings from Tennessee.
Thanks! Cool! Greetings from Georgia!
One day can you go back to dogs crossing in Rome ga to film trains there because one of my favorite spots to film trains with the signals?
One day I will. One day when I feel like going when I'm not busy.
Bruh do it early
What time would you prefer it be done at?
Nice catch and crossing love that bell and lights
Thanks!
Hey! Saw that same train as well as seeing you! Would have come to see you but the train was coming in to fast. I friended you on facebook.
