I grew up in Redwood City, not too far from the port. When I was a kid in the ‘80s it was SP locomotives going up and down chestnut street. Back in the day chestnut was a horrible street. Rough as hell and full of pot holes. I was told it was the worst street in America.
@@SeligsTrainsandTravels Chestnut street was fixed up in 90s I believe. It’s been a few years since I last visited Redwood City, but especially since the recovery from the 2008 crash the whole area has changed so much, I barely recognize it anymore. I remember riding bikes along the tracks where they pass underneath the 101 freeway.

Great video

Great video of the train journey!
Thanks!
Great video! Fun fact the office building next to the port houses Crystal Dynamics the developer of last years Avengers game.
cool
I used to work for a tech company in that area off Bayshore. I think there's a cement factory in that area that train primarily serves.
ahh i see

@@davidsteele1667 yeah, it definitely was fixed before i came around
0:07 more than 3 times a week, don't forget about the Rock Job that runs at night. 2 Freights go down Chestnut, the LSF51 and Rock Job.
cool

Do you know why some of the trains go back to south San Francisco while others stay in Redwood City? Like what’s the job they need to do?
no idea
Does that train return to south San Francisco switch yard or it stays in redwood?
not a clue but when i went to go see it one engine went back to sf and the other stayed behind
Im also on the hunt for the mission bay hauler too
@@DTHESHARK gl
It goes to redwood does switching for about 3 hours and heads back to south San Francisco
@@gabriel1088_ yep
