The Longest Union Pacific Coal Train I've Ever Seen While Waiting On CP 2816 In Iowa!

Leading this coal train was UP 8322 with UP 6231 pushing from behind.. They were headed south along the Mississippi River and needed to clear the way for CP 2816 who was heading north..

Coal still runs America 🇺🇸 happy Independence day

With the EDGX cars, that trains heading towards the power plant in my city of Sheboygan, WI, the Edgewater Power Plant owned by Alliant Energy. They were going to shut the plant down, but thankfully they reconsidered and it will stay operating, but will covert it up gas. I'll miss the trains, but at least we'll have reliable energy.👍🇺🇲

Nice one Jason, has to be great seeing other railroads for a change!

Hey no Rocking

Good to see some EMD power up front! Seems like all the big railroads are in love with the GE Evo units.

[@BudmanPackfan]

EMDs stumbles & failings with the SD50 & 90/43 really crushed their reputation. Marginal success of the GP/SD60 and very solid SD70 platform saved EMD from completely disappearing. The 1010 prime mover still isn't as good as GEs (Wabco) have been the past 20 years.

Cool

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

I counted 116 with both the puller and pusher Engines. Am I close? I do wonder how many crossings it was crossing besides that one.. A drone shot from above would have really cool to see... wow.. Thank you for sharing

[@BudmanPackfan]

That's about right, very common PRB set up for UP. BNSF runs 2+1 with 110-120 cars on former NP route thru E. Montana & Dakotas

[@GregMcLeod-ic6xo]

Wow! Can you imagine that EMD SD60 Running down the rails of E&LS through Michigan and Wisconsin? I'm not sure our tracks could handle all that power, but it would be nice to see them try! One impressive piece of equipment for sure.

Gad, that crossing bell sounds horrendous!😕

[@BudmanPackfan]

The lovely world of maintenance-free e-bells....

[@user-pi4wj7bm4z]

J. You are on an upswing. The first train you have caught with a diesel pushing unit. Great.Greg 😊.

[@RandomRailfan828]

Nice catch man!

[@buddyburtonphotography]

CPKC 852. Empties returning to the mines for more coal. It will take the Union Pacific at Clinton. Plus the train took the siding at Lake North(around the bend) to meet 2816.

[@PurplePrickProduction]

Pretty typical train for Wisconsin Power & Lights Columbia plant by Portage, WI.

[@roberthagberg5482]

I got this coal train on Jawtooth videos.

[@streetrodder2846]

I retired from Southern Pacific right at the time the Union Pacific acquired it. I remember well how the U.P. locos were so uncomfortable compared to the S.P. The U.P. were more Gestapo to the employees as well. UP=👎

[@dontomkinsonkpc6ndb862]

No one wants to stand next to the bells klanging...

[@DaleHeil-lm1ix]

Where is this located?

[@stupidsmart-phone6911]

Well the longest train I ever did ride
Ran around Joe Brown's coal mine
Headlights come 'round 'bout six o'clock
Caboose come 'round 'bout nine

[@Jleed989]

No DPUs and one pusher. Flat land railroading

[@BudmanPackfan]

EOT helper is DPU. It is common on the PRB unit trains to have no mid-train DPU. No mountains to climb from eastern Wyoming to Midwest.

The längsten Train ist ein erz.zug in Afrika mauritanien am Atlantik ..
