There is something totally surreal about seeing a train running along a street. We don't have many examples of street running over on this side of the pond. However, as long as Jaw Tooth and others like him around the world, are prepared to give such fanatical devotion, just to get a good rail video: Then the rest of us can also be train fanatics without leaving our houses and never waste all that time waiting for the trains to arrive! Keep up the good work :)
For those that don’t know or wondering the train and the train tracks were there before the buildings. I’m not saying every building but absolutely most of them and buildings that were there are business related. I’m willing to bet there was more than one track through that area.
Jaw Tooth do you happen to know what the former railroad was that used to run across that trestle? Any idea where this coal comes from and where its destination is? That's a lot of tons running thru there. Can you imagine what shape the highways would be in if that many tons of material were moved over the same roads once or twice a week, year after year by semi's? Can you imagine how many accidents there would have been because of that and how many people would be injured or killed over the years! There still and never will be anything comparable to a railroad for moving huge quantity's of freight as cheap and efficiently as they can. We don't have as many railroads as we used to but what we still have makes this still a great nation. Nice job Jaws.
Wow! What a beautiful long-shot of that train coming down the middle of the street! Not a whole lot of room from the track to the houses...I imagine they're used to it....but they probably sleep with earplugs in...✌😂
always great vids, from a Brit across the pond. It always seems odd to me that a country as huge as the USA moves so much freight around by rail, yet we've yanked up and closed most branch lines on this tiny island so we get huge amounts of road haulage and don't get to see trains rolling down roads. Damn shame.
Great video. Elizabeth, Pennsylvania is about 20 miles southeast of Pittsburgh in the Mon Valley. Chances are that the track leads to the US Steel Clairton Coke Works, which always has a demand for coal. Good to see you in my neck of the woods! Brownsville has tracks in the street. Uniontown, Pa (not far away) does too, but I don't know if the trains still run on that track. My brother lives in Belle Vernon. You passed by the big trestle over the Monongahela River. There is a TH-cam video of a W&LE train crossing it. In my neighborhood of South Fayette, we get W&LE trains pulling natural gas tanker cars every day.
When I was there I was listening to my scanner and I heard an attempted car jacking in Pittsburgh. The guy tried to carjack an off duty female officer. He failed and then car jacked someone else. I heard the cops track him down and arrest him. That was interesting. Also, I plan on visiting west Brownsville Pa to see the street runners there
Wow Jawtooth a awesome catch your on your way to a Emmy :-) also it would suck rocks if a long coal train stop or go into emergency , and you had a major emergency lol and last cool No Tell Motel room lol
0:49 for those who might not know, this BLUE sign is on both sides of e v e r y RR Xing in the country. in case of EMERGENCY this sign has RR phone # & location info specific to each Xing so theyll know where to alert trains.
Your videos are alway very interesting to watch JT. You sure do get around my friend. I did maps on my phone for Elizabeth Pa, 197 miles northwest of me. Looked like the trains run N and S First Avenue. Man would I love to live on a street like that. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍😎😎😎 Cary
There is another town near this called West Brownsville Pa. it is to the south a short distance and I was going to stop there also and I forgot. It has awesome street running also
Hey dude, you're wrong. There is no tunnel at the end of that trestle, if you look there are tracks that will run parallel with the road and then used to cross back over the road closer to elizabeth and then join the rail line that you were filming. Trains stopped crossing the river there in the late 70's
Well here goes. From what I have researched, the abadoned line in question was part of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Interestingly all the timetables that I have list it as West Elizabeth.as being on the main. Early on it was the Monongahela Division; Pittsburg, Brownsville, Uniontown with connection to B&O at Uniontown, hence CSX winding up with it. So PRR to Penn Central to Conrail to CSXT. It was still in the books as West Elizabeth as late as 1970. OF course it has been 49 years so anything could have changed during that time. If anyone can shed more light on this, you are surely welcome!!
As an addendum; Elizabeth was on the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie section of the New York Central by 1950 after the consolidation (Penn Central) I suppose that they deemed the rte thru West Elizabeth as duplicate and abandoned.?
Now that was awesome watching such a long train! I wanted to count the cars, but someone kept panning the camera back and forth. I had to look away a few times since I get motion sickness very easily. I love that you bring us these videos, because you can never have enough footage of trains. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos. They are so much a part of our country’s history.
Wow some big coal train , but what stole the show was ; The J class 611 , in Your previews , 611 is my Favorite American Steam loco , I prefer this to the Big Boy !

Love those coal trains!! Reminds me of those old pictures of C&O coal trains. They seemed to dominate all the coal traffic in the 70s.
WOW!! Long train, Steam train & a CABOOSE! Nice hotel! This video is a treat! Thanks
Sharing! 😍😍👏👏👍😊
Excellent Great catch and video Thanks for sharing your work!
love those street running trains! ✔👍
BaltimoreAndOhioRR the first emoji you used looks like the Nike logo
@@realMrHudson it's a check mark, but yeah, it does!
beauteous sight, Jaw Tooth. Thanx for sharing Elizabeth street running and all of the beautiful coal moving along the rails!
Thank you for posting this! It was fun to see the trains go down the middle of the road!
Ain't no mountain high enough, just like it says in chalk on the tank car. Thanks JT for your dedication to brining us street runners.
So very cool yet scary to have such a powerful thing coming down the road. Great video! Love your enthusiasm. Wishing you and your wife the best ❤️
Liked the steam engines at the end. Awesome footage.
For those that don’t know or wondering the train and the train tracks were there before the buildings. I’m not saying every building but absolutely most of them and buildings that were there are business related. I’m willing to bet there was more than one track through that area.
Love the yellow house with the front door right next to the tracks. Thanks Mr Jaw.
I love the street running trains 👍
Me too. I have a street running playlist that has a bunch of different cities where I have been
Wow! Sit right on your front porch and watch the trains! I would love it but my wife thinks I am nuts.
Bonjour Jaw excellente vidéo à bientôt.
I really like how it goes right down through the streets pretty cool
Love the porch with the planters with the eyes

Awesome! Thanks for spending over 3 hours so we could see this awesome "live action."

The white house right next to the track got me, besides the fact of how long that train was!! Great video my friend, thanks for sharing.

Absolutely love them old steam trains thank you for showing :-) peace
That was really a very looooooong Train :)
Awesome street runner! Live action!
Love ur street running videos that was awsome to see sir thanks again
Loved this one, You sure do know where to find the longest trains. Great Video
I would have checked out that tunnel a bit more. Very cool!
Great video! Live Action is always the Best!!!!
Wow Jawtooth a awesome catch your on your way to a Emmy :-) also it would suck rocks if a long coal train stop or go into emergency , and you had a major emergency lol and last cool No Tell Motel room lol
great video my friend
Love the street running videos!
We used to have Street running from Weymouth in Britain I think it's stopped now though unfortunately. Great videos always Jawtooth
i just know that you dream of hopping that train.Nice location and a great video.
Another live action Jawtooth special ! Good catch -worth your waiting time for this one !
Regards
Another excellent video. ♡ T.E.N.
Another great “Live Action” video from Jawtooth!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Lots of cool stuff there!
Hello, Jaw Tooth! I must admit you'd REALLY have to be pretty dedicated to your job to sit & wait nearly four hours for a train to approach.
Yes, I do that all the time. Thats how I catch the best ones that are hard to catch.
Awsome train them loaded csx coal trains are long
Very Nice !!!!
👍👍👍 great video
Amigo jaw tooth grandioso video y una gran toma del tren que era demasiado largo muy sorprendente saludos
Great catch
3:13 other end of the trestle bridge is inside the the US Steel mill I work in
Fascinating that CSX runs such a long train through a small town. Did that motel have a vibrating bed. Great video JT..
No vibrating bed but I was wondering what that light was in the bathroom vent
Yikes, a five-car train passing by at slow speed makes a large building shake. Can't imagine living or working on a street like this.
thanks for sharing
I really liked the old Tressel bridge. Tressel bridges and old railroad equipment is also interesting as the trains themselves.
2units & 130 hoppers, not bad for “street running”, 😎🛤👍👍👍
🚂🚂Awesome 🇮🇳 Video 👍👍
Great video. That was really cool. 👍👍👍❤️
Great content, sir!
Wow that’s so awesome! About how many trains per day?
between 4 to 6
Awesome video.
Lucky houses !!
0:49 for those who might not know, this BLUE sign is on both sides of e v e r y RR Xing in the country.
in case of EMERGENCY this sign has RR phone # & location info specific to each Xing so theyll know where to alert trains.
I would love to live in a house right next to the tracks. A short walk to watch a train go by.
Your videos are alway very interesting to watch JT. You sure do get around my friend.
I did maps on my phone for Elizabeth Pa, 197 miles northwest of me. Looked like the trains run N and S First Avenue. Man would I love to live on a street like that.

👍👍👍😎😎😎 Cary
There is another town near this called West Brownsville Pa. it is to the south a short distance and I was going to stop there also and I forgot. It has awesome street running also
Good one 👍
Street running trains you can see in Zwitserland and Austria in the Alps .
Super video 😉👍
Harmar village in Marietta Ohio has street track and it's CSX mainline you need to go check it out
Street Running - A piece of Americana.
Nice train, counted 131 cars, long one indeed
Boy the noise next to your house as it passes!!!
Awesome coal train!!!!
3:33 Got any idea as to where the other end of that old railroad tunnel is ?
Hey Brian you are good at filming trains
Nice one Brian.... LIKED !!!!
Thomas
I could see the realtor listing that house there as nearby to transportation
Didn't think it would ever end lol

Guess that "Line Painter" just walked out of the local beer joint !
What did you get a ticket for?

I have seen way too many lines get abandoned and removed in my life so I decided to try to document them for the future.
You have way patience than I do lol

That is some serious street running! Thanks for waiting! Did you get a car count on the coal train?
Wow some big coal train , but what stole the show was ; The J class 611 , in Your previews , 611 is my Favorite American Steam loco , I prefer this to the Big Boy !
Brian, What line did the old tressle, bridge, and tunnel belong to?? Probably an absorbed flag . It is interesting.
I dont know. I just saw it when I was there and decided to film it
Did I see John Candy in that motel room?
No. You saw John Candys ghost. D
