Union Pacific's old Rock Island Short Line Yard: LOCO MADNESS!

[@brakie44820]

Your video reminds me of a CR yard where I could park on a public street and watch the yard action all day if I pleased. The crowning jewel was they used SW1500s/MP15s there.Great video.

Thanks brakie, yeah, not many places let you get away with that anymore. Glad you enjoyed!

[@brakie44820]

CSX closed the yard and now it nothing but rusted rail. Thankfully there's a NS and another CSX yard I can watch them switch from a public street.

Yard switching: one of the many instances where hand held camera rules. Nice!

[@RailfanJason]

That and forgetting to bring the tripod along for the trip :D Thanks!

Great video and it sounded great too.

Thank you. With trial and error, it took me four cameras to get one with sound I liked. :D

I have a KCS red yellow and black locomotive. I use to run it at the club before it broke.

We live near the Hull Ave. Railroad yard.

[@RailfanJason]

That's cool. I live 4 blocks away from Kansas City Southern's east/west line across Missouri.

I was just there about a week ago when the Iowa State Fair 2018 was going on. I found some pretty good footage that day. You can check them out anytime. Will you check out my Central Iowa RR Club ones please?
