We have wondered many times what LaGrange looked like near the tracks. You have answered our curiosity in a big way! First time we have ever saw so many auto cars being pulled at one time! Double thumbs up to you for the great views. Many thanks. 👌👌
Gostei muito de ver esse vídeo de LaGrange. É uma bela cidade. Assisto à cam Virtual Railfan já há algum tempo. Observar o movimento da cidade tornou-se, para mim, um hobby. Seja dos veículos e ,claro, dos trens. Obrigada por nos mostrar a cidade. Sou do Brasil. Abraços.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤🇧🇷
Glad you enjoyed, and hope you had a happy birthday! It was a fun trip down there. I'm hoping to get back again, hopefully seeing more trains than before.
Hello, dear friend, my name is Gilberto, I am a fan of seeing the images, generated by the live camera that is at that intersection, I usually go in every day to see a little bit, I think everything is very beautiful, the train, passing in the middle of an avenue. However, I always wanted to see what I had besides the live camera .... and your video solved my will and my curiosity, thank you very much. Big hug, I'm from Brazil.
Hello from England. I have seen a number of videos of this town and the street running. This one shows me how different the place looks on a public holiday. This is still busier that any street in our area at the moment now that the UK is on lockdown due to the Coronavirus.
The two intersections that have lights and gates are spooky to watch. People hit the gas to beat the gates down, forgetting that the two intersections are also 4-way stops. Sometimes get some close calls of people trying to clear the tracks and getting stopped by people flying into the intersection without stopping. Of course, on the live cams, you occasionally see a cop at the intersections hitting their lights and going after the people running the gates and stop signs.
There is no need for mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* . We mustop anyway and look right and left. I'd prefer the crosstreet, which is the busy street, have only the *(o)T(o)* and no STOP signs. As an Operation Lifesaver presenter, years ago I suggested a sawtooth pattern on the underside of gates. The harmless *vvvvvvvvvv* may discourage drivers risking crossing under the descending gates.
Wow, what a small world. On 4/14/14, CSX train Q-004 detoured down the NYS&W (New York, Susquehanna, and Western Railway) due to track work on its normal route. That is hundreds of miles away. That train was led by CSXT #513, the lead unit you see parked at 6:55. That unit has the most beautiful horn I think I've ever heard on any engine in my life. Link to video: th-cam.com/video/9PbZLfDy-hw/w-d-xo.html (fast forward to 1:30 to see the train).
Yeah, La Grange might not have the volume of traffic like I see at my usual railfanning locations, but it's neat getting to see trains easing their way down the middle of the street like that.
Nice bike! I've thought about getting a motorcycle. But I can't afford it at the moment, and where I live, I have no place to park it except outside, which I'd prefer not doing.
Yep. Not just for the weather, but a couple years ago, a neighbor of mine a few doors down from me had a nice bike parked out in front of his townhouse. Not long after he got it, somebody came by overnight and stole a bunch of parts off it.

6:22 you can see the Virtual Railfan cam look at the top of the building facing the street
Nice of the building owner to allow installation of the cameras. Who? We should thank him/her.
Thanks for posting these clips. it has given me a great insight to the size of these rolling stock cars. Ours here in New Zealand are not that big.
My favorite location to look for trains, all captured on my birthday. Thanks for sharing this.
Glad you enjoyed, and hope you had a happy birthday!

Great video. Thank you.

I have been to LaGrange myself with a friend of mine and also for a get together with a few railfan friends.
Interesting seeing Quiet Zone crossings with no mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* and gates.

That's an interesting crossing/intersection. Nice video!
Thanks. The crossing bisects 5 roads in on shot; all meeting at one point. Traffic light pre-empted, to keep traffic at bay.
I have been there 2 times and it's a cool place
VERY BEAUTIFUL
I really want to move here ! ! The crime rate looks low and everyone looks like they have respect for each other and everyone is peaceful 👍🏻
Great video!
Absolutely Awesome!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Love it watch the live cam/chat on TH-cam on virtual railfan channel.
Oh, yes, I check it out on a regular basis.
super cool!
wow you caught a LONG one!

9:59 That's me on the bike!
Nice bike! I've thought about getting a motorcycle. But I can't afford it at the moment, and where I live, I have no place to park it except outside, which I'd prefer not doing.
Thx. Yeah leaving them outside is not good for em.
Yep. Not just for the weather, but a couple years ago, a neighbor of mine a few doors down from me had a nice bike parked out in front of his townhouse. Not long after he got it, somebody came by overnight and stole a bunch of parts off it.
Would i could visit but thats imposible......:(
6:22 VR cams
A+!
Nice video
Thanks. Wish I could have seen more trains on the trip, but it was a nice time with the visit down there and the drive down and back.
nice
by my profile photo you will see the sympathy I have for La Grange !!
