- In 2022 and 2023, we visited the "backwaters" of the KCS system in Missouri and Mississippi to capture the last days of the company before the merger with Canadian Pacific. This video is a comprehensive tour of the lesser-known ex-GM&O extremities of KCS Railway.

Gotta love the sounds of jointed rail.
Clickety-clack!
I am a west coaster recently moved to the Pittsburgh area . My father was SP and I was lucky enough to do many coastal rides on engines and a few cabooses .I just recently got into rail fanning.
Welcome to the hobby!
Welcome to the hobby of railfanning
Man, I love watching the first 45 minutes of this video. You did a fantastic job!
Thank you so much.
Great sound recording! You picked up all of the "details", even in drone shots. Thank you.
An in depth video like this of the K-Line would be awesome!
My uncle started his railroad career with the GM&O in Jackson, TN at Iselin yard just before the merger with the ICRR. That was a merger that never should have happened. The parent company of the ICG was investing money in other businesses they owned at the time, but not the railroad. That’s why their tracks got in such bad shape, causing them to loose business and causing other businesses to go out of business as they couldn’t get reliable service. When the ICG sold the mainline between Fulton, KY and Corinth, MS, that pretty much forced him to have to work out of Memphis as he did not go to work for NS. Also, PSR is nothing more than lean manufacturing for the railroads.
Absolutely brilliant as always!! I love your channel, it’s so interesting and informative. Being an Albertan I’m fascinated by the acquisition of KCS. I hope CPKC keep the KCS livery as it’s so pretty
Thank you. That really means a lot!
At 29:xx LOVE the drone video of the barge passing through the swing bridge! Your videos are the BEST!
This video is absolutely amazing, thank you so much for sharing 🙏
Absolutely, thanks for tuning in. -Drayton
Great video!! And I loved that radio traffic. Didn't understand it all but it sounds complicated.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video.
Love the details-very good drone pilotage
Thanks a lot!
Those tankers always remind me of those old time roller skates that you had to attach to your shoes and adjust with a key! I guess it's because the tankers sit so high on their wheels.
Excellent video in Meridian Drayton
Thank you!
@@DelayInBlockProductions your welcome Drayton
Looking Forward to what CPKC has in Store for their 2nd Year. Also keep up the good work
Seems a bit strange, normally railroad mega mergers usually draw lots of opposition ranging from customers to other railroads, however I haven't noticed much of an uproar over the CPKC merger.
You should take the trip to Waterloo Iowa to see what could be the last of the IANR
I live around the CPKC Heavener subdivision and heard the c&o heritage unit was coming through last night but the train tied down for the night I think up in shady point since there’s a siding there
Die RTS hab ich als Vectron diesellok leider fehlt mir die rts Ludmila und zwei weitere aber von stadler were sie besonders cool denn ich liebe 6 achige disellok 😊
I love trains
Yo why did you take down the 765 stretching her legs to Liepsic again???
I guess the only question is, how much money to the regulators and politicians changed hands to allow this merger to go through?
One notices how pathetic the track conditions are heading into, out of n even in these RR towns! Too bad line owners don’t upgrade their lines.😮
Wow that's alot of galleons
Galleons?
👍
Locomotives on the this train CPKC it came To the Kansas City Southern and Canadian Pacific and Canada tour For a Alabama and Georgia on different world country of Railfan The Delay in block Productions from everybody and happy railroading To everybody.
Huh?
I suppose when an apocalypse does occur, people will be able to pick up wood n other burnable items along RR tracks for sevl months! 😂😅
And how come wherever a RR line exists, its spaces contain debris all over the place! RR lines look like junk areas! Ugh. Clean up your sh#t, people!!😂😮
