    I buy timetables at train shows. Been doing that for 20 years. Before the internet timetables, books and videos were the only ways to find out about railroads.
    I always carry a radio scanner with me railfanning. I'd just as soon not go trainwatching if I don't have a radio.

      Makes it more enjoyable for sure. I recently purchased one.

  • @distantsignal
    @distantsignal  11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yeah, I couldn't believe my luck on that one. When I arrived I was the only railfan there. Cameron showed up a few minutes later but no one else. I guess it was too cold and windy for everyone. :-))

    Awesome video, Danny. That 4-way meet at Crawford was spectacular. In my few times up there I've never been able to see such a meetup. Now it is a bit unfortunate the classic signals are about to have their days numbered up there. Also after the ballast was dropped at presumably Wildwood and Winter Haven from K981, the engines were turned and the train went on to Miami as Train K917, which now shuttles aggregate between Miami and WH like the FEC trains do for that airport project in Lauderdale.

    Don't worry. CSX is putting up brand signals there.

  • @distantsignal

    OK thanks Harrison. That makes sense now that I look closer at those hoppers. You can read Vulcan on them going by. Good catch.

    Oh it was so loud you can't believe it. You'd think I would know better by now. :-))

    Yeah, the Old Callahan sub is going to be a crazy piece of railroad soon.

    I hope so. We've got a great Saturday scheduled this year. Pancake breakfast, Swamp train Presentation and the city cookout in the afternoon. Plus lots of CSX and Amtrak.

    That trailing GE at 4:34 is probably the cleanest CSX locomotive I’ve ever seen. Norfolk Southern keeps their equipment 10 time more cleaner that CSX does.

    Another great video Danny. CSX K981 was taking Ballast to Vulcan Materials somewhere south in the Central Florida area. I seen those kinds of trains in my area 3 times a week, however they run as Q776-Q778 and K956-K958 but mostly the Q train. Sometimes they have good CSX Power if they don't use a GEVO. SD70MAC would be nice. The crew are very friendly when they came by, I always get a shave and a haircut from them. It's amazing.

    Excellent video when I plan to head to Florida again I might as well stop in Jacksonville and catch some trains. Though maybe mostly for the NS. On The NS Southern Tier line in New York we get intermodels coming out of New England I have nerver seen a Triple Crown ever cross the line, though I wish I did.

    I still can't believe how CSX double tracked through Ocala in under a year. I bet it will become one of the prime train watching locations in Central Florida once traffic on the S-Line get busier. I wonder what the NS will do when the CSX's Callahan sub gets busier. The crossover in Crawford is going to be even busier once CSX finishes the double track.

      Railfan71xp Haha No They will Not be gone as the roadrailers are the best economical way to transport goods across the country and whoever told you that was lieing thru there teeth. the only way that you can tell is if they put it in the Trains Magazine or In Railroad & Railfan Magazine(true information coming directly from the Railroads). so Don't go saying things without finding the facts out from the Railroad FIRST. and what you did was a Big NO NO when it comes to being a Railfan. JUST an FYI the roadrailer has been around since norfolk southern started back in 1980/1990 after the conrail merger and i don't think they will be gone anytime soon.

I live about 60 miles west of Chicago and about 25 miles south-east of Rockford and live within a mile of the old Milwaukee Road now CP and the old Illinois Central now CN Freeport subdivision and was born and raised one town away where these two lines cross each other and both come out of Chicago, but I still don't see a lot of theses inovations that you see show up down there where your from.
