- HiDef Metra "Dinkes" On The BNSF Race Track At Highlands Station - Archival Clips - August 1997. This Is By Far My Favorite Location To Watch Trains That Are Really Screaming By!
Wow! Those engines go so fast on the racetrack!
Absolutely love those Brass Bells on the Cab Cars. They sound so much better than the boring Steel Bells you constantly hear nowadays. It's a real shame all the Cabs here had their controls deactivated and 8473 these days is so hard to come across.
Glad you liked it. I will be posting a lot more from Indiana, Illinois, Oregon, Washington, & Montana. Taken in the late 80s & early to mid nineties as I find them in my archives. If you haven't subscribed, please do so you'll be alerted as I post them. Dan
Glad you liked it. I have to go through more Hi-8 tapes that I have taken over the years and will post them too. I'll be home in September(Midlothian) and plan on taking more CTA EL action & Metra on the old C&NW line, but in HDV!
Take Care Dan
Thank You, Glad You Liked It! Should Be More Metra, Rock Island, Metra Electric, & South Shore Taken 89'-97'

Wow this brings back memories, thanks for posting!
Great footage! Nice video quality. I'd love to see more videos of the Metra in the 1990's

I live right by there! Withing 1 mile over in W.S.
The Oak Street bridge is scheduled to be replaced in the next couple of years. The bridge is actually an old turntable, flipped upside down and hoisted into place. You can see its history at oakstreetbridge . com.
Great video! One thing - Metra trains are called "dinkies" or "suburbans" on the BN, not "scoots"!
Thanks for the info! Dan
It is old love it
I totally agree with that statement!
Will: Sure is by far my favorite place to rail fan!
