R J Corman Flat Switching in Dover, Ohio - An Awesome Catch!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ย. 2021
- This is on the RJ Corman Cleveland Line. It was started in December 1988 and
has 68.65 miles of track. It serves: Wooster, Massillon, Dover, New Philadelphia, Midvale
serving 16 customers in total. The Cleveland Line interchanges with: CSX - Warwick, Norfolk Southern - Massillon, Wooster, Wheeling & Lake Erie - Brewster
I was close in calling this an EMD SW 1500, but no cigar. The EMD MP 15 superseded the
SW 1500 in February 1974. It was lengthened by 3 feet from the SW 1500. The
MP 15AC was the first EMD switcher to receive the Dash 2 technology. In
1972 their road locomotives first introduced Dash 2, then in 1975 it came to
their MP 15AC. It also had a 1500 HP 12-645E prime mover which was the same as
in the SW 1500.
Another new advent in the MP 15 AC locos was the D32 main generator was replaced
with an AR10/D14 alternator/rectifier. Note also the "tunnel motor" look with the
radiator section near the front bottom of the loco. Southern Pacific was the first RR
to order a new MP 15AC. (Southern Pacific was the RR that first inspired the
tunnel motor concept in road locos SD40T-2 and 45T-2.)

RJ Corman has ran in dover for years now. Before RJ Corman im not sure what ran on this line. The line is called the Cleveland Lines but before that it was a part of B&O before getting bought out by Chesapeake & Ohio eventually becoming the Chessie System, which is now known as CSX. When RJ Corman got there hands on this. Im not sure. I live around that area and you asked for a little info about it. They have three main engines, 1804, 4119, and 3001. 3001 is an Ex-Lehigh Railway train and the other two have always been RJC. We have the switcher, obviously, and we used to have a genset, not really sure what happened to that one.
Thanks for the great information Aiden. We really appreciate
your taking the time to share with us my friend.
Ive learned that after B&O, Chessie System ran on the line before being bought by RJ Corman. I also discovered that the Pennsylvania Railroad ran through Dover as well. Penn Central saw no need to keep it in Dover and tore up track. B&O had passenger trains in Dover as well but the government stopped ghat because of Amtrak
Yes - RJ Corman always has some clean and cool equipment! This is nearly 40 years old or so and works like a fine tuned clock :) Very nice to see some switch work!
Glad you enjoyed Brian, really appreciate your watching, everyone
says nice things bout Corman, you may enjoy this video

*nearly 50. RJJC 1410 was built in 1976.
RJ Corman is sure a professional outfit. All their equipment is always clean and shiny.
They certainly are, everyone speaks highly of Corman
Loôk up the history and beginning of Rick Corman......very very impressive!
You are certainly right in that! There an excellent video on tube
bout him called Working Hard to be Lucky, totally awesome video
if you haven't seen it. Do appreciate your watching the video

@@edtompkins865 😉
Always nice to see a real switch engine in action. Most of the time it’s a road engine,or two doing switching duties. Nice video thank you.
Your welcome Edward, yep most RR's refurbish their old road locos
for switching duties, it is nice to see these old guys still in action
The railroad where I worked leased a GP15. It was set up with a special fast loading control that made it great for switching. I liked that little locomotive.
The numbers identify the hazard class
Ie 1203 flammable is gasoline

Always sharp looking equipment. Nice to see they're continuing RJ's commitment to sharp looking equipment. I highly recommend viewing the RJ Corman documentary on YT. It was cool.

He took care of his employees and always ran a tight ship.
The locomotive certainly sounds great, it is nice to see shunting being done, thank you so very much for bringing us this excellent video presentation. It is always nice to see a well presented locomotive and R. J. Corman's locomotives always fit the bill. Thanks again for taking the time to provide us with these gems.

You stumbled on a great catch rj runs a very short line interchange here in Alabama down in childersburg. They always have clean equipment and are always on time they wait on you ...you never wait on them! Rj corman was a hell of a man ...self made for sure. Left this world way too soon!

I worker that RJ Corman line back in the early 90's. Operations have changed a lot since then.
Cool, yes a lot of RR operations have changed since the good old
days louderone, and not always for the best. Thank you so much for taking the time to write in and to check out the video my friend.
Geez, now I really feel old! I remember back when "relics" like this were State of the Art! The relics of that era were Penn Central NW-2s from the late 1940s! Rode on one at the local yard.
My railroad had an nw2 loudest horn I ever heard lol
@@ernestpassaro9663 With the junk the old PC had, I'm not even sure the horns worked! Never heard em!
@@b3j8 yep PC sure ran junk !
Did you see the video PC made begging for cash lol
@@ernestpassaro9663 Yeah, LOL. They needed it! I lived near the once-famous PRR Fort Wayne Div mainline, and by the time I was a young railfan in the early 70's, the old Fort Wayne was in pretty rough shape!
Awesome video Dave and that's one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE LOCOMOTIVES the MP15AC! That's quite a neat yard if its R.J CORMANS and the house right across from the siding is somewhere I'd like to live to get my daily fix of trains!
Thank you very much and great to hear you enjoyed the show Shawn.
We do appreciate your nice comment and for watching my friend
As a railroader, I can never pass a yard without stopping to see what’s happening. I live about a mile from the CSX Main Line sub. Former L&N main. Always interesting traffic. A lot of auto rack unit trains, some mixed freight, a daily local, and about once a week an RJ Corman unit train with aluminum billet slabs.
Occasionally we see Norfolk Southern power on that line and have seen Burlington Northern and Union Pacific power very occasionally.
I live right next to the Henderson Sub(former L&N), and there’s quite a bit of action as well. It starts at South Howell(Evansville, IN) and ends at Amqui, TN which is where it meets up with the line you refer to.
Awesome Bill! All we have here where I live is NS and only coal, so
that's great you get to see a nice variety
We had an old EMD SW1200 built in 1965 for many years switching the yards. Had to get rid of it because it wasn't "green" enough for California. Now we have an NRE 3GS21B that we got this year and an old kodachrome we've had for a long time.
hope they still have it, those genset switchers can be unreliable.
Oh it has been unreliable. In the shop every other week. But the old kodachrome keeps on trucking. The old SW12000 we had to torch holes in the engine block so it could never run again then it got cut up and scrapped.
@@michaelball760 that calif. for you, that's 1 f**ked up state! I guess that kodachrome is a a ex SP locomotive....
@@rearspeaker6364 yes it is, I believe it was used around the tehachapi area before we got it
now now now, be careful what you type, you tube bot is watching,
it automatically deletes any 4 letter cuss word, but again, that was a 6 letter word....LOL
I live about 15 minutes south of Dover, and I remember going across the bridge there all the time as a kid. There is always something going on there in that yard. Great catch!
Sweet, thanks for the info, was first time I was ever at that yard, been
to Warther's, what an awesome place and passed by Dover many times on way to Holmes County, nice area, we like it
Corman equipment always looks good
Yes it does, they take really good care of their stuff, thanks for
watching Mike
Fantastic catch Dave, see you get lucky sometimes as well 🤣 , RJ corman is elusive to me when I go fishing. Got no love when I was in Dover, and really appreciate the time and research you put in your descriptions, always find alot I don't know from them, so thank you my friend.
Your welcome, was gonna get gas up the road, but saw a sign
a few cents cheaper, so tight wad me went to that gas station and
viola, there was Corman, guess it pays to be a cheap skate.... LOL
@@ccrx6700 lol for sure, in a round about way it always pays off, just like this time.
Enjoyed it. My short brush with 'hands on' railroading was in 1953/1954. I was a senior in high school and scored a part time job as a clerk for NYC RR Yard Master in East St Louis. The line had diesels on the road but all of the switchers were the last of the steam engines. Details are foggy but it is one of the most memorable times in my life. Your videos don't disappoint in keeping the spirit alive.
Wow, in 1954 I was born and here you were working on the RR, pretty
neat stuff! Thanks for writing and and sharing that sir.
do you have any pics of your time there... that would be nice to see
@@25mfd I wish I did. :-(
@@25mfd sorry but I don't 😭
It looks to be an MP-15 AC which was probably about the last model of that type of switcher to be built. MP-15 switchers beginning with the standard DC model and ending with the AC model were built from 1974 until 1980 according to one source.
Yep was mp 15 ac, went home and looked it up on computer,
that old girl sounded pretty good, appreciate your watching Ralphie
I've worked on a few of those and their earlier SW 1500 cousins. None of those made much black smoke like this one did, they all were making blue and gray oil smoke! RJC has that one tuned right!
@@ralfie8801 thanks Ralfie for the info ☺
That's what it is.
On the old Milwaukee Road, MP15AC's were known for dragging built trains upwards of 15,000 tons into ready tracks at major terminals. They are some bull-stout little switchers.
Sweet Stephen, thanks for sharing that, this one sounded like it
had some pulling power
@@ccrx6700 You're welcome. I remember reading about that in a "Locomotive" magazine issue from the perspective of a conductor who was working for Canadian Pacific.
Interestingly, the Milwaukee MP15AC's that I was referring to were known on the CP as "Bandits", former Milwaukee MP15AC's that had not been rebuilt/repainted into CP colors. In the article, the conductor mentioned also of a local transfer job that involved taking a coal train down to a power plant to be unloaded, normally done via doubling due to a small hill en route. In his MP15AC "Bandit" story, the engineer he was with said they were taking the whole 14,000 ton train in one lick. The wildest part: although the train got down to 2mph on the hill climb, the Bandit engine dragged the entire train up and over the hill all by its lonesome. So, you can bet top dollar them MP15AC's are unique.
I remember watching them at Bensenville yard near O’Hare airport near Chicago. The sound was just awesomeness!! Only a couple of the AC’s got painted into the red/ light gray of the Soo Line
Typical of a Rick Corman company, clean and well cared for. To be good you have to look good, R.I.P Mr. Corman
Yes you are right, they are first class all the way, everyone
speaks highly of them
Excellent video I enjoyed watching it.👍😁😁😁😁😁🚂🇬🇧

Nice catch there Dave. EMD switchers sound so good. And bonus overhead footage too. I wish I could find such a spot to watch some switching like that.
Just lucked out, was gonna get gas at station before this, then noticed a couple pennies cheaper down street, so my being tightwad paid off 🙃
Saved some pennies, saw and heard some nice RR switching, and got something to share with your viewers. Win, win, win! 👍
Looks like a MP15 AC

Thats neat, we got them here in Spencerville. They run a sw1200 that was once used by GTW, they assigned it to the line in sometime of 2016 or 17. I've been trying to catch it for about 4 years now but whenever they do run it, it's usually in the morning hours when I'm dealing with high school stuff, it seems like they run it every other Thursday.

It is October 5th. Just caught this engine working Wooster today switching out Frito-Lay. Usually this line is served by either a rebuilt GP7 or GP20 so this was a pleasant change of pace. The horn was a dead giveaway that this was not the usual power assigned over here.
How sweet it is! Awesome Christopher thanks for sharing 😊
Good day i wonderd what happened to you sir butt now i saw although i am subscribed and got the bell set to show me as soon as you make a new video i dont get informed about it so i went into my subscriptions and saw that you do have new videos.Go well God bless.

Sweet! There is a video on You Tube: Working Hard to Be Lucky
about him if you haven't seen it. It's an awesome video. Thanks

Thanks I'll definitely check it out.
I love those little EMD switchers! Jaw Tooth shows a short line that has a black one quite a bit, but your bridge view of this yard with this shiny red Corman one is pretty awesome!
A little tip on your hashtags Dave - TH-cam will publish three of them per video. They must not have spaces as a space means stop - connect the words using Camel Case. If you did #RJCorman #FlatSwitching and #CormanCleavelend TH-cam would have published all three, but because #rj is repeated several times, they only publish it once and ignore the rest. #flat is the only other valid hashtag because there is a space after it. You can put in as many hashtags as you want, but again they will only publish three. You can look at the one's on my videos for reference. Have a great day 😊
Thank you, really appreciate the knowledge on that! I'm learning and not too many folks like to share their info with me on stuff like that, so will fix and do better in future. You are a wealth of knowledge my friend and listen to what you tell me, can't thank you enough

You very well could be right Joe, viewing this place was a first for
me so sorry I was rather ignorant of what it was all about, got
lucky just passing thru. Do appreciate your watching sir
AWESOME Switcher , love that sound also . Alot of cars for one switcher , no ?
I thought the same, but Dave's description says 1500 HP- good power and undoubtably in great shape, considering the owner!
Glad you enjoyed watching, we do appreciate that
You can move a lot of cars on the flat with 1500HP. A lot of the reason you need a lot of power on freight trains is to maintain speed up hills -- you need the power to lift all that weight vertically. If you don't mind going slowly and you don't need to go up hills, you can move a lot of weight with a small locomotive.
@@beeble2003 👍
I hope you got to checkout the Warther Carvings while in Dover.
We been there 5 years ago, it's been a totally incredible place ❤
I believe that line is owned by CSX, and is leased too R.J.Corman. The line is ex B&O. This line ran from Cleveland Ohio too Wheeling West Virginia. Sadly this line is removed from just south of Urichville Ohio all the way down to Wheeling. Some of those tanker cars are going to Dover Chemical company.
Thanks for the info Ryan, much appreciate your writing in and
for watching my good man.
Great catch dave, that switcher sounds sweet, 1000, or better hp? They did a nice restoration job on her, rj Corman has a operation in Conway south Carolina, saw it nice video!
Thanks Jeff, glad you liked it, 1500 HP sir. Corman is a first class
operation all over from what I'm hearing
Flat Switching the way of the future under PSR!
LOL, PSR want do away with all switching, only run unit trains! They would love to do away with small customers and less than car loads.
You ever do any Corman tracks Ezekiel? or since you're the best prob NS pays big bucks to keep you on their tracks!

Your this video is different experience to me by the views of shunting of locomotive engine and that train.. What is carrying in
that train? ❤️🧡💛💚
I'm not sure what all was in that train Thomas. You guys call it
shunting as most of Europe does also. We call it switching,
same thing just different terms. You have shunting engines
while we call them switching engines or just switchers.

Neat
What is the HP rating of the switcher ?
1500.
They called the sw and mp 1500 cause they had 1500 HP
Placard warning numbers:
2312 Denotes poison hazard
1017 Denotes inhalation hazard
Looks like an old MP15 Locomotive. Obviously roots blown engine. Newer version of the old SW1500’s.
I may be wrong, but I thought R.J. Corman was a railroad services provider, not an actual railroad company; they provide switching operations and MOW services to the major railroads. There is an R.J. Corman locomotive here in Lafayette, parked on Norfolk Southern property; occasionally I'll see it doing switching in the Norfolk yard.
Steven yes that's how they started out, then once they got big
they started buying up short lines. Here's a link to a great video that
tells the Corman story, you will really like this vid

@@ccrx6700 That was a very interesting and informative video; I had no idea R.J. Corman was so big. Thank you for the link.
@@stevencooper2464 I didn't either until watched that Steven, I loved that video
and thought you would too, it is amazing to me what a humble and great
guy that was who started at the very bottom. Thanks for replying back!
@@stevencooper2464 your welcome
Interesting
I'm Terry from Cambridge Ohio about 1 hour south of Dover. You was at the classification yard for RJ Corman. The tank cars are for Dover Chemical on the north side of the crossing. Their derailment teams are also stationed at the yard.
Thank you Terry for the information. That was the first time I
had ever been there and wish I knew that when the video was made.
Dover is a nice place and what not to love about Warther, that
place was totally awesome. Appreciate your visiting with us today
my good man.
Molten Phenol I believe is the other Hazmat
What in the world is that??? never heard of it, more wicked
stuff no doubt
It looks like an MP 15 AC switcher.
Thanks, went home and looked it up on computer, wrote in the
video description the details on it. we do appreciate your watching Scott
Were you in Dover visiting the Carving Museum?
Joe, we had visited that bout 5 years ago, ran out of time this year,
but will go back, it is Super Awesome place for sure
If you stop at a truck stop you can find a hazmat book their orange in color. It will tell you everything regarding the plackcards and what the tank cars are carrying.
Thanks William for the info, being around coal cars all the time never paid lot of attention to what all the placards mean, but always open to learn new things
RJC always look after their equipment.
Yes they do Bob, wondering if you've watched this video, called
working hard to be lucky the RJ Corman story? You will really
like that video

I do miss the old group we had there, we had some special times
together.
@@ccrx6700 Been thinking about the Montana crash Dave///maybe a switch issue??
A large chip-board plant in Dover right by I-79, maybe them tankers ar full of glue!
Could very well be Jimbo, first time for me seeing this place so

That switcher could be an MP15.
Yep it is, put some info on it in the description, thanks for watching
This was a good catch, this could have gone a few more, to see if they are building a train, have a safe trip.
I would have stayed there a lot longer, but Mrs. ccrx was waiting
in the truck wanting to get home .... LOL
@@ccrx6700 Ya Boss spoke and that is that, so look up Warther, My god, such a treasure, this man was a jewel, go see this Museum, this is MIND BLOWING
@@ccrx6700 That would have been worth a few more, I really need to see train build
@@geraldblackburn4883 I call her, she who must be obeyed 😉 been Warthers, totally awesome!!!!
@@ccrx6700 👍👍👍he was a Super Human.
..and to think your wife was sitting in the truck waiting totally oblivious to all this important stuff..guess I'm a slow learner..At least I love trains & I have a great teacher.
And I have a great wife! Luv you sweetie
THIS IS AN MP15AC, USED TO BE A CSX ENGINE.
Thank you for sharing that Terry. Appreciate your taking the time to watch today's video my friend.
They also switch out out rail cars at deflecto.
Thanks Victor, we do appreciate your watching sir

Thank you David, sure with I knew that when the video was made,
