After catching the HMCR at Bob Wallace Avenue, I decided to go up to Holmes Avenue to record them one last time. While I was waiting for the locomotives to pull into the crossing, NS 22N wound-up rolling through on the Memphis East with an SD70ACe leading a pair of AC44C6Ms, elephant style. Shortly after the head-end power passed, the HMCR's Dash-8s disconnected from the train they'd just brought-up to go onto the middle yard track there, and they wound-up pulling into the crossing. First time I've ever caught anything like this before, as it ain't the easiest thing to catch!
And apologies for spinning the camera around so much, I couldn't decide on where to point it.

It is a rarity to see both crossings activate at similar times. Lucky catch!
Chuck! Good to see you here.
Thanks!
Great meet! Bet that K5LLA under the parkway was painfully loud lol.
Thanks! Not too bad, TBH.
Not as loud as an RS5T
Nice catches!
Thanks!
Nice double catches
Thanks!
Ah yes! Train and crossing chaos!!!
Excellent catch!!
Thanks!
Both trains are moving n the city bus could have gotten hit
Know that’s a great catch
Thanks!
Awesome video!!! Meets are always nice!
Thanks!
I feel like that new tall mast was unnecessary.
It was what the knock-down replacement signal that they'd had in the yard in downtown Huntsville came with, so...
NS 4264 and brand new NS 4296 remind me for BNSF 4264 and BNSF 4296
That bus barley made it
