- 06/23/2024 Montour, Ia. Another busy Sunday on the UP! Multiple manifest trains, coal, priority, and stack trains. Caught this ballast undercutter at the end of the day as it passed through town heading West.
That was asuper intermodal, too, Red. Even longer ans faster than the coal train!! Great catch, my friend! 😃😃😃😃❤❤❤❤
A very nice coal train. I love it! Long and fast, just the way I like them, Red!! 😄😄😄😄❤❤❤❤
Interesting UP drone catches and a ballast undercutter there in montour Iowa red that’s good 👍😄😄😄
@Diegoiowatrains Thanks Diego!
I liked the variety of freight on the westbound mixed manifest. It had some nice strings of box cars, too! 😃😃😃❤❤❤
Mr. Ever So Briefly.........thanks for all that you do.

Tell Rube’s I’ve never been there…… but will soon 🤠
@@jeffreyerickson3050 You'll like it. Get reservations if you go!
Thanks Red never miss one keep on rolling
@ronaldrondeau7870 You're Welcome Ronald!
Thank you for the fabulous video today, Red. It was full of great trains, and I really enjoyed seeing the ballast cleaner, even if it wasn't in operation. It must be quite interesting to watch in action. The trains you film put our local trains to shame, at least in my general area. Almost never do I see more than one locomotive or more than 100 cars. I just really love ❤️ your long, fast trains! I hope you have a safe and enjoyable week ahead! Please tell Walter and Roger heĺlo for me. I'll chat with you later. 😃😃😃😃😃❤❤❤❤❤
@garymiller5937 You're welcome Gary! Maybe someday I'll get the undercutter in action. I'm sure the dogs would love to listen to that😃
@redsiowatrainvideos6645 If they're anything like my dog, it'll be non-stop barking. 😃😃🤎🤎
Nice catches!
The first mixed manifest had a nice string of box cars! Very nice, and a good train. Thanks, Red! 😃😃😃❤❤❤
Hi Red, once again fantastic UP freight trains and a Norfolk & Southern freight train, And finally the track construction machines. Great drone footage,👍👍👍👍❤❤🚂🚂 thanks for showing and stay safe. Best wishes from Germany. Wolfgang
@@wolfgangpfeilergartenbahnd6530 Hey Wolfgang, thanks! Wish I could have caught the undercutter in action.
Another fab & exciting video Red! Love the Wisconsin loaded coal train with rear dpu it was flyin! My favourite has to be the 4 loco UP intermodel with 2 dpu wow it was fast! The N/S & UP Mixed manifest was a cool train. Have a fab weekend Red, Thank you ❤🥰👍
@Carolb66 You're welcome Carol! My favorite part of that spot is the speed👍
Good action today. West bounds sounded like they were slowing down.
@davidsnider1703 Thanks David S! West is up hill around Montour.
Interesting loads on the WB tail end are steel (H & I beams) covered to protect against the excessive rains and slow down the rust formation.
You had another busy railfanning day on 23 June 2024 in Montour, Iowa, Red! The former CNW green cover hopper car that appeared at 1:47 is now carrying MWCX reporting marks. I wonder what was under the heavy plastic or tarps in the six gondola cars at the end of that last westbound manifest. The bulkhead flat car had some heavy-duty construction timbers on it. I was surprised to see that the reporting marks on that ballast cleaner/undercutter were UP reporting marks. I was initially thinking that the ballast cleaner/undercutter was owned by someone like LORAM. (Posted 5 July 2024 at 1805 CDT.)
@thomasmackowiak Yep another busy one Thomas! I still managed to get the mowing done between trains. Not sure what was in the gondolas. Maybe some day I can catch an undercutter in action👍
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 the Wide World of Trains TH-cam channel had a video that showed a ballast cleaner/undercutter in action on the CSX mainline in the Dunkirk, New York area that was uploaded around two years ago. The is the only video that I have seen of one in action. I hope you have a chance to record one in action. )Posted 5 July 2024 at 2019 CDT.)
Boy, UP opened up the gates that day Red, they were flat running some trains, but anyway, it looks like the tie gang got up to the second Crossing by your house from what I could tell from the cross ties I guess they’ll be back carry on eastbound with them but anyway, another awesome video my friend you stay safe out there and watch your back. We’ll see you on the next one.
@timmyfrierson2684 Yes Timmy another active Sunday! I missed the tie gang through Montour. Got plenty of action West of town👍 Have a good one!
Definitely an undercutter
MOW equipment can look strange, but they play a vital role in keeping the trains rolling. Great action Red!
@nancyhodges444 Thanks Nancy!
@@redsiowatrainvideos6645 your welcome Red, happy belated 4th!👍🏼
🚂😎👍🚂
Lotsa shots of Red is cool too!!!
damn.......lotsa coal
Montour capable of hosting an overnight semi truck and trailer on your street? Had an extremely long layover at the Indian Reservation truck stop on the 1st of July. Would have been nice to have done my 10+ and watch some trains instead of traffic on US-30 before heading to Norway.
@chrisroeben1085 Maybe on the North side of the tracks you could park along Elm Street. There's a big building there that a trucker uses. Probly park along the North side of the building.
Did you capture this....Train derailment in Montpellier, Iowa? 06/30/2024.
Thanks.
@jz1340 You're welcome JZ! Nope didn't catch that.
Hello 👋 Red! How do the Railroad’s determine Main Line 1 and Main Line 2 and does it Change across the Various Class I Railroads ? Thanks! 👍🙏
@kens.3729 Hey Ken! The track to the North is Main 1. North South tracks I believe Main 1 is the East one.
Hello Red! Thanks for your reply and info. I Appreciate you explaining this. Keep up the Strong 💪 Efforts. Enjoy Seeing your Furry Family Members Railfanning. 😬👍
More coal is headed to keep my lights and AC going here in WI.
@@tcm2kd5000 Alright 👍
Was there graffiti on box cars in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s? Also do hobos still jump trains or is that a thing of the past?
@colleenallen3382 Probly not much graffiti back then. Not many hobos left but still a handful I'm sure.
When are the mow get to your home?
At the speed they were moving on his last video they should pass his home either tomorrow or Sunday
@michaelmoomaw3484 Already passed my getaway spot. I caught the tie gang West of town when I could. Should be a crew to pick up the old ties soon.
