I enjoyed the actionon the Union Pacific mainline in eastern Iowa, Red! That was a long double stack train going slowly across the Union Pacific swing bridge across the Mississippi River at Clinton, Iowa. Thank you for showing us the former CNW Tipton Subdivision that went southward from Stanwood, Iowa. What was that black oval to the north of the tracks in Stanwood, Iowa? That must be the berth location for the "River Boat Twilight" excursion boat that runs from LeClaire, Iowa up to Dubuque, Iowa in the warmer months of the year.

@thomasmackowiak Glad to hear it Thomas! That track at Stanwood is probably an all weather track for the school. Sounds like the UP still uses part of that Tipton Sub track for equipment.
Great action. I like when you shoot from different locations. Great look at the Mississippi River. That bridge must be reduced speed. Anyway they could slope the new bridge a little at a time to not have a swing bridge. That double stack was awesome. The l571 had great power. Thanks Red.
I love Clinton. I had the pleasure of chatting with one of the bridge tenders earlier this year. I thought that depot was the CB&Q depot? I think that was the train from Portland to Chicago. ZBRG2 maybe? Thanks for the video!
Goodness gracious Red!, sure was a LOT of squalling coming from that monster stack train! With IANR in CN now, a lot more opportunities opened up for drone wiews!
long one on bridge! Is there a speed limit on bridge because don't move quite like the uP express west? what's that orange domed building at the 14 min mark? Reactor? Amazing that swinging bridge works as all that steel and temperature contraction/expansion. I know in NJ there's a way small RR bridge and they hose it down with water to fight the expansion. thanks

Another Great video Red. Great drone views of your stomping grounds. Keep them coming. Stay safe out there.
@roballen5670 Thanks Rob! I'd like to fly over that abandoned wye again👍
If that bridge could talk I wish they would restore the depo and turn it into a museum
@zigman1975 For sure! Such a variety of traffic and I'm sure barge collisions. Be nice to see that done to the Depot.
Always look forward to your videos, Red!
@karengunia5451 Thanks Karen!

@davidsnider1703 You're welcome David S! That was quite the road trip👍
Great views! Huge intermodal! Glad to see those mid

Sounded like L571 was over 1 mile long! 6,000+ length! Holy Toledo , huge trains!
@chuxproductions1090 Thanks CHUX! Yeah long trains and cold hands. Come on Spring👍
Walked around the Clinton sub while delivering a dry van load. Lots of intermodals rolling thru there. Great video!
@matthewcox7341 Thanks Matthew!

@Jumpingoffthecliff You're welcome JOTC! That would be great to have a swing bridge tour sometime. That train was crazy long.
Goodness gracious Red!, sure was a LOT of squalling coming from that monster stack train! With IANR in CN now, a lot more opportunities opened up for drone wiews!
@paulsmith5398 Yep I still wanna catch all the Iowa Northern paint as possible👍
@redsiowatrainvideos6645 it might not be right away, but i will try to get more info on the CN takeover of IANR.
Thank you for taking me to towns I've never been before in Iowa...........Grand Mound, LeClaire, Clinton, Clarence, Stanwood ☝☝☝☝👍.
@jeffreyerickson3050 You're welcome Jeffrey! Flat and fast in that area👍
Great video! Also the STB approved the decision for CN to acquire IANR, they’ll take over on February 13th
@TD_loves_IANR Thanks Theodore! I've been getting all the Iowa Northern footage as possible👍
Awesome catches
@@TheSilentKCRailfan Thanks KC railfan!
@ your very much welcome
And............the long shadow of Red in CF 🤠
@@jeffreyerickson3050 Saw that👍
Nice catches!
dude! that train had to have been at least 3-4 miles long??? CRAZY
@stephe77 Yep, took a lot of battery in the drone! Cold hands too.
Red got himself quite aways from his home depot.
Cool ur at my grandparents place the 2 houses behind u are there’s
@@claydog1299 Good spot with the crossover being there.
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 yep it’s great
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 ya I have a short on my channel of a WB going from 1 to 2
Thanks Red It has to be hard to video in the cold
@craigzysk9666 You're welcome Craig! Yeah, cold hands make it tough.
🚂😎👍🚂
That was the longest train I've seen.. whats your guess on the length. 3 mi.. Thanks for the vid... n Be Crazy!
@georgearchambault6185 You're welcome Arch man! Boy that thing was probably close. Took forever at that speed.
long one on bridge! Is there a speed limit on bridge because don't move quite like the uP express west?
what's that orange domed building at the 14 min mark? Reactor?

thanks
@joebidenbites1015 You're welcome JBB! I'm sure there's a speed limit on the bridge. That dome stores coal for a power plant at ADM.
Iowa Northern is no more, the CN buyout has been approved!
@@paulsmith5398 I heard that.
