Farewell David Shelley! All 5 South Florida Railroads in Action
Today is FEC engineer David Shelley's LAST run on freight service before retirement! I went out a bit early to get whatever trains I could find before FEC 206 showed up. Several railfans were out and about on both rail corridors today. 206 was short and wasn't wasting any time; I was set up at Pompano (with @railfanningwithdre916!) for only two minutes before 206 showed up with David cheerfully leaning out the window. While I was out I also got Amtrak 40 (the Floridian), both active Tri-Rail GP49H-3 engines and old cabs with the new wrap, two CSX trains, and a northbound Brightline from the car. Thanks for 53 years of service, David!
Trains:
0:00 - Tri-Rail P619
0:41 - Tri-Rail P620
1:58 - Tri-Rail P621
2:58 - CSX M453
3:53 - Amtrak 40
5:45 - BLF 723 northbound

Thanksgiving Eve Tri-Rail at Fort Lauderdale Airport
มุมมอง 882 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
While in the area I stopped here for two Tri-Rail trains to get a train in as there was not really much rail action at that time of day. Southbound P627 was cancelled due to P622 breaking down in between stations, but there was no station announcement about the cancellation since work was being done replacing the screens. The long delay and a lack of communication left dozens of passengers unha...
Phase VI ALC-42 on Amtrak 40 + CSX M452 with 4 Engines
มุมมอง 180วันที่ผ่านมา
I went out to Deerfield Beach for Amtrak 40, which had one of the eight ALC-42 engines in Phase VI paint leading. 302 is the first Phase VI engine besides 108 to come to South Florida, and was in Miami for a few days working as a yard switcher. Before 40 showed up, Tri-Rail trains P672 and P673 came. I also heard that CSX M452 had four engines and was not very far away so I stuck around for it....
Veterans Day Tri-Rail Rush at Pompano Beach
มุมมอง 23814 วันที่ผ่านมา
With some spare time in the evening I went out to Pompano Beach station to see some of the evening Tri-Rail action. With the earlier autumn sunsets the express trains now come over an hour after sunset, so I didn't stick around. Six of the seven trains I saw had at least one vehicle with the new wrap, so very soon there will be more full new-wrap consists.
FEC 191 + Brightline in Oakland Park
มุมมอง 7514 วันที่ผ่านมา
With no 105 and an earlier 208, the south end of the FEC isn't very busy on Saturday nights. Saturday-only (well, until today) train 191 runs from Fort Pierce to bring trash stacks to Miami and back, but a few months ago it started running with empty rock as well. On this night 191 had 711 and 412 for power. In the time I was out two Brightline red trains passed, one each way. Trains: 0:00 - FE...
Amtrak at Track Speed + Tri-Rail 816 at Pompano Beach

Amtrak 91 and 97 were both on time at the end of their 1000 mile journey to Miami, and when this happens one is usually following the other one quite close together. 91 had a duo of P42DCs (though a trail fail somewhat with 146's EMD bell), and 97 had an ALC-42 behind the leading P42. 91 was running on approach signals since Tri-Rail P683 was ahead, but that didn't stop it from highballing thro...
CSX M452 and Tri-Rail at Pompano Beach Station
มุมมอง 416หลายเดือนก่อน
M452 was running up the corridor as I was on the way to Fort Lauderdale, so I stopped at Pompano Beach station for 30 minutes to get it. Providing power for this fairly short train were two AC44s: rebuilt 7244, and 403. M452 was following Tri-Rail P676 northbound, and M452 had to wait on P677 to cross CP Parker before proceeding because L787 was working on track 2 up there. I couldn't stay for ...
Hurricane Extras and Brightline in Delray Beach
มุมมอง 309หลายเดือนก่อน
Sundays on the southern end of the FEC are generally very quiet, with only one pair of road freights running. However, 208 did run yesterday, as well as extra 141 out of Jacksonville, due to the hurricane earlier in the week. Both trains were of good size too, with the defect detector reporting 676 axles on 141. I caught both FEC trains and seven five-car Brightline trains during the evening, m...
FEC 240 and 101 meet + Return of 5-car Brightline sets

Hurricane Milton hit Central Florida earlier this week, and the FEC mainline was hit hard with lots of debris and damage to crossings. Trains only began running the full length of the FEC yesterday, leaving behind a heavy backlog of traffic. Today's scheduled 101 had extra priority intermodal, and extra 240 was sent out of Miami to bring priority traffic north. 101 and 240 met each other in Pom...

On Sunday, UP 4014, the largest operative steam locomotive in the world, was on public display at the Houston Amtrak station. I didn't get to Houston early enough to see it arrive in town, however.

Amtrak's eastbound Sunset Limited happened to arrive during the event as well as a westbound CPKC g...

มุมมอง 3822 หลายเดือนก่อน
I went to the FEC tracks in Pompano Beach hoping it wasn't too late to see 101, with the goal of also getting some Brightlines. 101 beat my arrival by just two minutes, so all I got of it was a quick shot from the car. Less than ten minutes later both of the hourly Brightlines met half a mile north of me and I got both of them within about a minute of each other. I headed for Pompano Beach stat...

มุมมอง 4272 หลายเดือนก่อน
Only six days since the last ballast train ran up to my area, another one was on duty today working between Sunrise and Oakland Park. It wouldn't come up as far as Pompano this time, so I headed to Oakland Park to see it. It's been a hot minute since I last saw a double ended FEC consist, but with the extra motor it allowed them to easily swap ends to return to Fort Lauderdale. I caught BLF 726...
Saturday Tri-Rail Action from Pompano to Boca Raton
มุมมอง 3012 หลายเดือนก่อน
Quick outing with three Tri-Rail trains. I missed P676 at Pompano so I got P677 and then went up to Boca Raton for P679 and P678. P677 overshot the wheelchair ramp and had to reverse about half a coach to let a passenger off. At Boca Raton I saw P679 with 826 and 505, and a 'Metrolink' set with 519 and 808 followed on P678. The bridge work at Boca Raton is still far from being finished even a y...
Day One! Amtrak 301 leads the Silver Star + Tri-Rail at Deerfield Beach
มุมมอง 4043 หลายเดือนก่อน
I woke up too late to see 301 trailing on Sunday's P098, but two days later it came back, leading this time. I went out to Deerfield Beach to get it on 91 today. 97 was not far behind so I stayed for that, which had two P42DCs as opposed to Chargers. 301 had some windscreen damage that was picked up today so it's unlikely that it will lead until it gets fixed. I also got four Tri-Rail trains in...
Late Evening FEC Railfanning at Funky Buddha Brewery
มุมมอง 1353 หลายเดือนก่อน
I recently went to Funky Buddha Brewery to celebrate my birthday with some friends. Action was slow on this night with only one train at the bottom of the hour between 8:30 and 10:30. FEC 422 was leading a longer 191 with 433 trailing, and it's a welcome break from the GEVOs in the new paint scheme. 191's been running with empty rock cars since a few weeks ago, and tonight was no exception.
