Engine 3 - 5035 Dash 9-44CW
Engine 4 - 6642 ES44C4
Engine 5 - 7683 ES44DC
This mans energy got me gassed up too as im sitting in Barstow waiting for the same happiness lol!
That high speed "whine" is one of the prettiest sounds on earth.
That and the deep bellowing cry of a steam engine!
Sir that is what we call the beautiful sound of traction motors 😀
I have to 100% agree with you sir.
@@virginiatrains7886 The sound of the traction motors was gone in 5 seconds. The “whine” is the wheel flanges of the rail cars singing along the inside of the rail.
Like an airplane ✈️
It's great to hear such a happy camera man. The train sound was great also.
The legacy of the Santa Fe. They used to go over 90 mph across the Mojave. Off in the distance, along the tracks, you would look for a dust cloud and you know Chico was coming.
To add to you post, the Super Chief traveled 100 MPH.
@@odiecalodie awesome! to bad I wasn’t around to see those bad boys..
Is there any footage of these 90MPH trains?
Watching the train fly by is cool. But hearing how hyped you were about it makes it 100% better
yea
A grown man sounding like an excited kid😁. I can understand that! Being right there would have excited me too😉👍🏾
It’s not fun when we have to get off our locomotive and inspect the passing train that’s going by at 60 or 70 mph. I’ve been covered in snow, hit by a chunk of lumber... not to mention, it usually interrupts my sleep.
The train was approx 8170 ft long and it took 84 seconds to pass. That's about 66.3 MPH.
Is that over any kind of limit...
@@joeschlotthauer840 The track speed is 70 mph, so it's in accordance with rules.
@@RestrictedProceed
Wow, I didn't know that...
I grew up with a switching yard in my backyard, and they would crawl through...
Out in the California Mojave Desert they run 3+ miles long.
@@joeschlotthauer840 Big difference between open line and yard
Love the electrical wizzing sounds the engines make as they pass at high speed
Sounds like F1 cars used to
Want to see another one! Watch this on youtube 'BNSF Monster Train: Eight Locomotives And 263 Cars'. And turn your speakers up @2.10. Nice!
@@tilerman That was a nice build thanks.
The wizzing sound is the sound of the wheels on ground rail. The grinding puts tiny edges on the rail. I
@@MikePriornz I think its noise from the gearboxes for the traction motors
That was awesome! Not only do I love trains, but there’s something about the sight of interstate commerce in action that I find intoxicating.🥴
If that baby derails you're toast.
I used to live by the tracks -- as in my back fence was literally the railway's. I liked it, but sometimes long lines of LPG tanker cars gave me pause for this kind of thought.
Didn't help that my fiancée was the queen of dark humour and liked to call them 'thermobarics'.
Absolutely majestic. Your excitement came right through my tiny phone screen. Energetic. Enthusiastic. Great catch. Great narration.
Heh heh. Them Schneider trailers sure never been that fast on the road!!
What, you couldnt have been more enthusiastic?😁
I love trainspotters that treat it like a sport, stalk the train and are there for the shot!
Who doesn't love trains?
A million tons of train at 70 MPH.. wow!
They are honestly insanely powerful to even go any speed at all
@@jayasmrmore3687 much respect!
Very excited little kid with a brand new train set for his birthday! In the 70's i was very excited when i got a electric race car set for my birthday! Set track up and plug it in. Squeeze the trigger and you're racing.
Better than an amusement park ride if you ask me. Thank you for sharing.
Love trains. Kudos for filming that close. Glad those rails are good. Trailers would have been scattered for 3 miles if it left the tracks.
It's still strange to not see a caboose at the end of a freight train.
Old school. Superfluous to requirements
I miss cabooses.
Yes! Please bring back the caboose.
A train isnt complete without its caboose!
@@timsebastian5758 Well, that doesn’t happen anymore sadly.
When that hot chinese freight has to go. Walmart needs it baby
West bound. Gotta get those containers back to China/Taiwan/Vietnam/Japan/Singapore/Philippines/India .....etc etc. To be filled again.
Domestic containers and mostly piggyback. That one probably originated at Willow Springs.
@@spikespa5208 those were all domestic containers, so they never leave the country. It’s the 20’s, 40’s, and 48’s that go back overseas. Correct me if I’m wrong, but a lot of imported goods are trans loaded into these
@@tameraccoon1920 you are correct
That is so racist.
I look at these and wonder if Shoestring is on there somewhere
RIP Stobe ✌🏻
RIP stobe. Through the darkest hours of the night.
Shoestring is pretty awsoooome gentleman. Good for you. That you watch great stuff like stobe the hobo. 💪 " stop complimenting your life. A river, a 6 pack "
The first thing I thought, that close to a fast moving train! Imagine if it derailed in proximity of the crossing. The night the lights went out in Georgia!
Then he would end up as Another Statistic on BESTGORE!!!.
that would not happen bc, the dispatcher will tell the crew to slow down of there a curve.
It’s awesome to see the railroad and trucking industry working together. Especially considering at one time the trucking industry threatened to be the demise of the railroad.
I live 100 meters from an extremely busy railroad. At night, the train is allowed to go 70 miles per hour. It is a fearsome sight indeed, producing such a sweet, tremendous, sound.
Oh yeah! I’ve had that exact same feeling watching BNSF on the Stockton Sub out in the California Central Valley. Need to get back out there soon with my camera.
Great video!
Years ago the hottest trains to and from California were the 198/891 to Los Angeles and 199/991 to Richmond / Bay Area.
LOVE your enthusiasm!!! I used to watch these from the Clarendon hills station...standing 2 feet from the flying steel
Beautiful video, thanks Eric , greetings from Poland
Imagine being under one of those piggy back trailors and holding on for your life.
Railfanned the Chilicothee sub before and of all the places I've filmed,this sub has certainly the fastest trains I've seen.
Super video,my friend!
Sometime six years prior to my railroading years. I did just that on this subdivision pre BNSF days. It was summer but the ride was cold once it got up to speed. My friend was wearing a light winter coat.He has done this many times before. He said the train will slow down when we get to Nerska then we can hop off. We got on at Pulaski and, picked up speed at Nerska! Between freezing to death and hoping this train would stop, i had a moment of introspection. I fell in love with the variety of wonderful smells of fresh vegetables growing in the various farmfields. Surprisingly, The vans didn't move much on those TTX flats of which most now serve to haul windmill blades. Dont ever throw a rock on the ballast in front of you between the cars at that speed. See, i know this guy that did that and he got hit in the head with the rock he threw while the train was cruising at 70 mph. I'm glad...i mean he was glad, his head was turned when it hit him. Yep!
The g-force would kill you or that speed would send you flying if you don't get cut to shreds first.
love the excitement from real fans:)
Do you mean Railfans?
Why don't I sound this cool when I get excited 😎😂
That is high Ballin
In the old days I would see pig trains this size and longer on the old ATSF going 100+ mph. One time I clocked an SP train going 112mph that was racing with a car on a rd parallel to the track. Modern freight locomotives are only geared for about 70mph. I wish I had a video camera or smart phone back then to record it!
Some modern freight trains can go 75 actually but definitely not more than that.
Yeah, baby is right. They surely got their giddyup on. Nice catch.
MAN! What a monster! And the POWER!
Derailment: "let's jump right in!"
Seeing a freight train go that fast is frightening 👀
Hey Eric, thanks for posting! I love trains and I can tell by your enthusiasm you do too!
You Can Tell How Excited He is by His Voice
This is very good. Congratulations buddy!
Love the Doppler effect on that💪
Moving our economy for 160 years. BNSF the engine that connects us
Fabulous video!! You're excitement was the best part!! Watching this on a iPad was cool but the dynamics of such a mass moving so fast were lost. But to hear you excitement and enjoyment being right there gave me the sense of speed you were feeling. Thanks for the great shot and good luck with you video's.
I was standing on the passenger platform at Stonington, Ct one time wnen the Acella came through at about 80 or so. The yellow line on the platform suddenly seems a bit narrow.
Today's trains are a lot quieter on welded rail. They sneak right up on you.
I sit and wait in the Conservation area by River Road they pass under I-55 ! Nice video!
Yeah that's a good place to watch. Or go a little further out on Lorenzo road while at hammers at crossing right there where they built the extra side tracks for the unloading.
There is a good chance that I loaded that train.
Love this video! Also, the reactions... Do more!
Thanks for sharing. The train is busting a move. 👍🏻
Damn, that speed is only something I can dream of here on CP!!!
Literally look at the trains in Columbus they always go *mad* fast!
@@wirtr it’s insane!
cool vid man 👍 It never gets old watching them speed by like that.
Out in the west they go much faster. I chased an east bound coal train through New Mexico. I was doing 85 and only caught up with it when it slowed down to go through Clovis. Pretty gutsy to stand right next to the track though. At that speed, a derailment would be instant death.
Here in Europe freight trains usually cruise at that speed. However, seeing something the size and mass of an American train doing that kind of speed is really impressive.
That is a fast freight train. Until now I have only seen slow moving freight trains from the US here in youtube. Here in the Netherlands and some other countries in Europe we are used to trains (mostly passenger trains) to dash by a level crossing at high speed 120 kmh (80 Mph) and more!
NICELY DONE🤗😄🤟
Feel the rush,wow what a catch,good one.
What happens to you if one of those cars decides to break loose? Asking for a friend. Nice catch though, love trains
Trains use air pressure to keep the brakes from being applied. If a car breaks loose, the entire train comes to a stop because of the loss in air pressure throughout the train. Under normal stopping, the engineeir simply reduces air pressure commensuate with the braking requirements.
Excited as a school boy and still managed to hold the cam relatively still and got the good shots. +1
I see the CB&Q pig trains and imagine standing there taking in that proud railroads heritage.
That's awesome! But, you are seriously brave for being that close! 😂
Yeah like what would happen if one of the containers fell off.
@@johnbell3621 those trailers won't fall off.
Awesome! 😎👍🏻
That’s pretty awesome but understand anything that hot shot kicks up could take you out be careful and always be thinking of safety👍😎
This never ceases to excite me! Just like the taking off and landing of aeroplanes. Still has that fascination of a little boy experiencing it for the first time feel to it. It's a guy thing.
Love your enthusiasm... Earned yourself a subscriber
We need our railroads back, much more efficient than trucks, truckers need to work for the railroad!
Agreed
I'm your 1k subscriber!
It's quite a rush to be that close to a fast moving train!! Great catch!
From the sound of that wind, it must have been blowing at 70mph too. I tried to count the number of cars but soon gave up and said, "Shi-, that's a lot of cars!"
The momentum of that beast...
CHILLICOTHE SUB,
GE POWER,
FLYING INTERMODAL,
THATS MY SANTA FE,
BN OR NOT!!
KEEP THEM ROLLING BROTHERS!!
👍👍
instantly thought of beargrease riding a hot shot in hobo😔😔 Rest In Peace thanks for the video
Enjoy the 4 digit subs man, I'm your 1,000th sub. Hope you'll start uploading again soon!
Thanks! Will do!
Nice!
The foam is strong in this one.
This is about as foamy as it gets.
Just the weight of the five locomotives moving at that speed! Just a guess...they weigh approximately 300 tons each?😳
ALOT of power
I rate him to be one of the top 3 or 4 freight train colour commentators ever. He's the Al Michaels of freight train play by play.
...ps , eric coil ~ you're havin WAY too much fun out here...
Pedal to the metal... I love it!!
Awesome! Never seen one go that fast.
I lived 1 block from the Conrail Chicago Line in WNY from 1990 to 2005. 70 mph for a freight was normal, 95 mph for Amtrak. The highest my radar gun clocked a freight at NY-36 in Churchville was 82 mph, verkfied by the track detector report on the scanner. I remembef a couple of Amtraks hitting 105 mph.
I went back last year, now a CSX lin Amtrak still screams, but the freight pokes along around 62 mph. A real bummer...
Another cool video
It was moving, and that was a long train. Good video. Shalom
Niice! They can rip like that on the NS Chicago Line too! Still gets my blood goin at 60 yrs plus!😀
Great video!! I like that and that was a really fast bnsf train it was on speed!!!
And if it derails at that speed you'll be a stain.
also the locomotive are a GE es44ac and EMD sd70ace GE ac4400cw and I think last is es44dc
Wow. Movin on. 👍👍👍❤️
God Man there have got some Trailer on that Train
That is surely a badass catch nice job!
When ever i pull up to a arm coming down, i roll the windows down, shut of the engine and listen to the "ding, ding" ....man, i love trains
Don't know about you but, standing that close to something going that fast is insane. But that's just me.
Absolutely no doubt about standing to close.
Right! If a metal band was lose and whipping around it would slice your head off. Just saying
Nice!!!!! Saludos cordiales desde Argentina!
@1:28 one of the multiple, Marten trucking Refrigerated semi trailers in this train: that’s 1 reason why, it is a fast freight “HotShot”
... UP locos come speeding through Las Vegas, NV. like that everyday with auto rack loads... !
I.feel THE wind...Super Video toll gemacht weiterhin good Lucky Train
Awesome video
This is BNSF's top priority train.
Santa Fe All The Way!
You sound like me , except one thing. You ever try storm chasing? Trust me on this. Adrenaline rushes are addictive.
I know what you mean. I’m a bit of a thrill seeker myself.
Ever thought about spending holidays in central Europe? Although you won't see as loooooong freight trains, you might see them flying by at that speed every few minutes
THE SPEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDD
that big giant colossal freight train probably has 127 train cars on it and all of it was trucks and mail trucks and fed ex trucks and 10 wheeler tracks it took a whole hour to go by.
Its cool that you get so excited by the trains. I am that way with airplanes.
Both amaze me.
Well done
