    2:15 The only 6 axle units needed to complete this consist is an SD70ACe and an SD70ACU.
    3:43 Nice catch with the CSX Law Enforcement Heritage Unit next to the American Flag.
    12:55 It's always entertaining to see anything that deals with Maintenance of Way. Especially at Railroad Crossings.
    17:32 Someone needs to make a trip to the wash bay.
    18:26 That's where I'll be next weekend.
    30:08 I was hoping for a duel between the 4501's whistle and the Dash 9 horns.
    30:53 Kudos to the gentleman cleaning the rail cam at Russellville, AR. My hats off to you👍.
    34:00 Any reason why that stack came to a stop?
    35:19 What is it with people today. Do they not have a brain. I mean seriously. SMH.

      @@gregwhitney8820Oh okay. It's just that I've never seen a train stopped and blocking a crossing and sitting on a movable bridge before at Fort Madison. I thought they would have a crew change further down the line by the yard.

      @@parailfan The crew change is at the yard. The blockage happens only with extremely long westbound intermodal trains. Perhaps, two miles or longer.

    2:08 yep, what a lash-up. 1836 is one of 52 SD70ACCs which are what DC to AC yellow units 1800 and 1801 are. 6338 is one of 57 SD40Es rebuilt from SD50s
    3:38 that shot deserved to be the thumbnail
    6:03 so many birds forming a cloud shape. It kinda looks like a manta ray
    6:36 BNSF H2, BNSF 700-series warbonnet, and BC rail blue. All dash 9s
    9:46 NS MOW equipment on flatcars on a mixed freight
    11:11 two GE locomotives for a 2-car inspection train
    13:03 pedestrian grade crossing replacement in Galesburg
    15:37 NS, BNSF, and UP forming a 3-unit lash-up
    17:50 look how dirty that CP unit is! I bet the unit in front of it on its last run put out some serious exhaust
    19:20 a yacht tall enough to warrant the Ft Madison bridge to be swung open
    21:46 wind turbine blades on a mixed freight. They must be replacements and not for a new installation
    22:20 a black DODX caboose on the tail of a mixed freight
    27:00 seeing the Loram grinder at night is awesome. The lights on one of the grinder cars has gone out
    31:42 SP gray light engine running backwards! I honestly forgot you had a camera in Russellville, Arkansas. The two passenger cars are part of Stoby's restaurant and they have a 3rd on their main building
    32:00 triple-header of BNSF, CSX, and CN
    35:14 I barely noticed the cyclist at first! It's not safe to ride a bike in such dark clothing too

    the mic gain on some cameras only produces noise. They need to be turned down or they might all be skipping audio like some do now.
