- This video features New York, Susquehanna & Western switching FX Matt Brewery (makers of Utica Club & Saranac Ale), Utica NY on July 5, 2024 and, shortly thereafter, heading back up Schuyler Street with 5 cars consigned to Utica-area customers.
My loyal canine companion, Witold, elected to remain hunkered down in air-conditioned comfort today instead of joining me (it was nearly 80 & humid this AM). He'll make an appearance again soon though, of that there can be little doubt!

I absolutely love the videos of them switching this business. The switch in the vault in the middle of the road along with an actual active switch there is very impressive to me.
Yes-- not to mention a GP40, in the middle of a street in a town in Upstate New York . It really does not get much better.
@@user-mr3ct1dm9p switching a brewery is just the final cherry on top.
My favorite too!
Welcome to upstate ny railroading. Aka funky town. We got all kinds of crazy little things like this.
Its called a submarine switch
The sound the unit makes when it’s idling never gets old. Just love it. Good old EMD. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I was just going to comment this. I like hearing that 16-piece diesel orchestra.
EMD diesel sound is inmortal. It is THE DIESEL SOUND
@@claudioeternod7064100%agree 😅
Indonesian railway company has also these kind of machine
Only in America can you overtake a train on the street... and only in America can you park a train on the street while cleaning the tracks!!! Fantastic !!! 😊
Hello from the USA I can confirm sometimes cars have to share roads with trains.
Also in Europe: Rhätische Bahn, starting in Tirano, Italy.
Find on the map the port in kolobrzeg, Poland. See how cool the tracks are next to the lighthouse....
While I was still living in my college house, after I had been working for the railroad a couple years, I got to take home the locomotive! I lived less than 200 yards from an old junction track. We were doing a tourist / commuter excursion for a street exhibition in the next town over, where parking was going to be an absolute nightmare. So I was told to park the locomotive in a safe location near my house and then my coworkers could park at my house and ride the train in to work. Granted there were only 4 seats on the engine so we were a bit overcrowded, but it worked out phenomenally! There were probably 40,000 people milling about the city looking at 8 x 6 square city blocks of exhibits. They got on the train to escape the crowd, or maybe they also parked in the next town over! But either way, we were busy all day giving folks a quick 1-hour ride. But I will never forget the experience of taking home the company locomotive! Not many railroaders can say that with any genuine truth.
Просто ты дикарь. Это самый обычный проезд поезда в промзоне.
Most excellent brewery-switch yet. So good my wife asked me to turn down the curve-squeal.
This is why I need earphones to watch...my wife says "what is that squealing how is that enticing you?"
Absolutely love footage of small day-to-day operations with street running and small business service.
STREET RUNNING trains are very unique to watch when you're use to seeing tracks with ties and ballast. I've been to LaGrange, Ky to witness it there and definitely quite a sight to see! If you've never been, make it a bucket list destination. Cheers from Laurel, Delaware USA.
I ran trains through a half mile of street track age in Noblesville, Indiana. It worked okay as long as the motorists got out of the way.
There is really good one in Brno, Czech republic the tracks there are acually tram tracks but with little catch they have bigger Track Gauge than normal trams
So its its suitable for the trains. In normal circumstances Trams are riding along the tracks but you can somethimes see Diesel engines there or even Steam engines insted of regular trams
Living in the UK, where rail tracks are 100% fenced and strictly off limits, makes street running seem wildly anarchic and exotic. So much potential for collisions and accidents, not least for the guy casually operating the switch with uncontrolled road traffic squeezing past.
Low speed limit low traffic streets allow for this. You never see tracks in the street on busy roads. This is an old tradition over here and we know how to act around street running trains.
But ive seen tons of those street trains hit cars in videos in uk.dont knkw what theyre called and never seen these street trains here either so idk @GrammarPoliceInvestigations
@@keepcoolgames5896 I think you're thinking of light rail passenger - trams, trolleys.
Yeah we have trams. Nottingham trams actually use a combo of actual tied and ballasted rail and running on the roads. Places like Blackpool have trams but besides the sheds are on their own paved sections that cars can't touch.
But standard trains. Nah. Besides. A lot of our traffic is passenger and the vast majority of lines are mixed traffic. Even our freight runs 60mph. Standard trains on roads are not a thing
@@GrammarPoliceInvestigationsonly place I recall street running on a busy street was Western Pacific’s Oakland California street running section to get to the yard. That is some cool footage to see
Really enjoyed seeing this close quarters switching; rarely get to see it. Thank you kindly for sharing this.
Love seeing train tracks sharing with the roads. It’s really a genuine scene to be running along side a train on the roads in the USA! Great video.
I know that by you documenting this, it likely made the crews day with the attention on what they do for a living. Good Job!
Apparently the locals are quite used to the Unit traveling down the street to the warehouse to pick up the empty cars, as I saw no lights or flags until it departed brewery!
I really like watching the street running trains and
this is really interesting watching thank you.
🇺🇲🚂🚃🚃🇺🇲
I'm from Woodstock,NY, I go through Utica often, now I have a good reason to go back and see for myself! 😊
😊💜😊💜😊
"Utica Club" toured that plant as a kid in the '70s.
I will never get tired of watching this crew, w/3040, switch the brewery! Great catch! 👍🏻😬👍🏻
Greetings from Tonawanda NY! Service matters!
Hello from Northern California! I would completely agree that service matters👍
amazed that those cars can go through a curve that tight
From an engineering standpoint, this is the very reason that flanges are on the wheels!
This shunting video is fantastic. This switch setting device is interesting. Thanks for showing it and have a good week.
Great video as always. Enjoying it from the 100+ feels like heat of the Carolinas
Such a simple exercise. Locomotive goes in and takes empty hoppers out. Returns with loaded hoppers. But strangely relaxing and enjoyable to watch. And the street running obviously adds that extra "something" missing from other shunting / switching videos. ☺
I've watched many of your other videos of these moves over the years and it doesn't seem to get old. 🥰
[watching from Gippsland, Australia.]
Thanks for commenting, glad you enjoy my efforts!
Last mile is where the action is. Nice video.
Absolutely great train video and interesting, most interesting and it's always good to know the rail crews because they know you know the safety rules and won't get in their way,Thanks for sharing this with the audience.
What a gorgeous livery
Awesome video and enjoyed watching once again. Have a wonderful upcoming weekend.(Steve)
I love watching the switching process in the middle of the road. Always fascinating to watch.
Is there a chance you might arrange to get inside the other side of the door to see where the empty grain cars are stored and where the new ones are put? Always enjoy your videos
All is well if they're getting malt to keep producing the beer. We could use a break from the rain. Good to see the other car loadings holding up and we await the return of Bìtold
Looks like it was even busier back in the day with the boxcar height loading docks along the spur on the outer wall.
they need to get some hop bales delivered via reefers!
"Oh Miss Susie, you have a lovely set of bugles". And on my model railroad (here in the UK) #3040 is the only loco where I know the name of the conductor.
Ethan is a fine chap!
Sitting on the other side of the Atlantic, I keep coming back to videos of this location, and I have no idea why. It's just nice to still have such local freight service instead of only trucking these days.
What a sweet video! Thank you for taping and posting this. All those old spur tracks still really serve a purpose, and we should keep them!
I’d say that move was a sweeping success!
Hey, sir: that’s a funny looking truck you got there!
Street running and switching and the best sound ever. Thanks for that video. Greetings from Berlin/ Germany. Sven
Ive actually long wondered why id see brooms on some trains. Now i know and it makes total sense lol simple solution to an age old problem
Marvelous video friend!!! Excellent joj👏👏👏👏. Like and greetings👍👋👋👋😃
This video is great health and safety here in the UK world have a fit to see a large diesel loco on a city street !!!
Another great video from Morrisville NY.
I am in the UK and I am absolutely fascinated by the street running you have over there.
You should see footage of the old Western Pacific street running in Oakland California, it was one of those rare times when a railroad was built after the city was established so there’s a bustling street with cars and delivery vans and also freight trains rolling by
Enjoying from Clinton NY. Thanks for sharing. Your partner had the right idea to stay in the office.
Great video. Fascinated with how it worked into the premise. Surprised these sorts of shunting's still exist in USA. Had quite a few of those sorts in Adelaide, South Australia but none exist anymore. Last one probably in mid 1980s.
Thanks for your very enjoyable video.
Thanks for the video Railroading Rambler, always enjoy seeing trains going down streets.
Hi from York, England, thanks for another great video! Always enjoy watching the brewery switch. They seemed to be in a hurry today, perhaps because of the extra trip! Witold is a wise dog ....
The natural place for railway tracks. Street running rules!
Awesome freight, I'm a boxcar fan. Great catch
New to your channel...liked and subbed INSTANTLY. As all the other commentators, I really liked this and your other NYS&W and others RR videos. So nice to see interest in these operations. Thanks for being out in the heat and getting this down.
Thanks for commenting & welcome aboard!
Bet that sucks to do in the middle of winter!
Well, check this video out to see just how nasty it can be th-cam.com/video/yU7wNpcC_J8/w-d-xo.html
The Screeching 😍😍😍
3:25 Nice to come this close to a locomotive. Reminds me of the narrow gauge steam train that drive through the city once every hour.
I love all of these Utica videos!
Alway interesting to watch this switching action. Thanks.
Excellent video - loved how sparing you are with narration, outstanding SOUND. Good angles and steady! Quality viewing!
My country has one of the densiest railway networks in the world, yet these street running trains are extremely rare here. It is fascinating to see the huge loco in the streets merging with regular car traffic.
What a great vid!! I love street running.
Unique train.and bigh size.wow I like it👍. Cheers from Indonesia .
Great clip with both pickup and setout! Thanks for sharing
Railroading 101. Pull first, then shove.
Nice shots man, always cool to catch some street running action!
Absolutely awesome love it one of the few spots in u s they do this😊 12:56
Wonderful. Many thanks!
I live in NYC and just came across this video by chance…damn this is cool!
At least with a single point switch there's only one point to clear out. 🙂 I wonder if the dirt washed in with a heavy rain, as I don't see a wider spill. I always enjoy seeing another adventure at Door 18. Our Peanut, being a short hair miniature Chihuahua, likes a warm day. She sends her best wishes to Witold. Cheers from Wisconsin!
Good point about the rain, I think that's a likely reason for the "crud" build-up. Witold sends his regards to Peanut!
That was awesome. I couldn't stop watching.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Damn, the curve makes the loco vibrate from how tight it is
i love to see at least some local switchers stiil existing
WOW this is awesome!
Hopefully see you soon, watching from Hot 🥵 and Humid North Carolina
Sensacional!! Lindo ver a ferrovia ativa, dentro da cidade...
I believe i still have a can of Maximus Super from the 80s that was brewed there.
That loco wants to be a school bus when it grows up.
A great street running video. Union Pacific has a street rail line near Disneyland in Anaheim ca. Its Santa Ana st fairly busy line ,worth checking out.
I can't imagine switching that embedded switch is any fun. I've had some tall old switches that required 4 men and a 6-foot pipe to throw. This one still looks more difficult.
Aside of model RR's, I've never seen a big GeeP on such a tight curve, esp urban street running. That was cool.
Brilliant Video, love US train video, LOVE the cleanliness HUGE DIESAL LOCO, ALL good wishes from LSM Family India ❤️🙏❤️
Nice catch.
How cool was that!
I like those shiny wheels
Awesome!
I wondered how they operated the switch on streets this was cool to see. Also like the curved building its like they lay down the tracks first, then built the building second.
And I thought the track clearances on my model railroad were tight! And a siding THROUGH a building? I've always maintained there's a prototype for any idea you can imagine in model railroading! A neat idea for the next update to my layout.
That loco’s gonna need some turn signals driving down the middle of the road making a left hand turn lol
Pretty cool video.
Nice video! Thank you. Nextime please show the switch condition before sweeping. 7:39 What bell is heard? Inside warning for workers? 13:40 Showhat is ahead in case there is a mishap.
Love the following-along view.
Sensacional esse registro
2:51 thinking hmm should I take it 😅
Good, old America
I have seen tramline on the road but rsilway track on the road it seems very rare
The New York, Susquehanna & Western railroad, also known as the "SusieQ"
nice video
Very cool! 🇺🇸
Interesting how the business has a derailer to keep anything from accidentally slipping out into the street.
nice sound
SNEAKing in door #18!
Hey the engineer let the train engine double parked haha
Awesome!!
They need a compressed air hose to blow the switch out
Exactly what i was thinking.
I wonder how many cars of grain FX Matt goes through a year? There are LOADS of breweries here in Oregon that are situated very close to active (as well as abandoned) rail, but I'm not aware of any getting deliveries by rail since the Stroh's (Henry Weinhardt) brewery closed in downtown Portland. After the bars and clubs closed at 2AM the smell of spent grain was in the air, and you could occasionally catch the hoppers being switched along the streets to BNSF Lake Yard I think.
My guess is that Matt's receives 100-125 cars per year.
Matt FX Saranac Beer. Now you caught my attention! I visited the website. I look forward to more.
Imagine getting cut off in traffic by a locomotive
or be fined for running a red light😁
@@The_Jedi_Padawan lol
Very good video. The clearances around the building sure look tight. About those tracks in the street are there wooden ties under the concrete that support those rails???
Yes, wooden ties
