- Queensgate Yard, Cincinnati, Ohio
Including NS Guest Street & Ludlow Yards
I always wanted to see a good overview of Queensgate yard from start to finish, so I decided to make one. It turned out to be a bigger task than I thought it would be, considering how many smokestacks, power-lines, etc., are all over the valley. Not to mention I did not want to fly over people directly, so I used the Millcreek as a safety just in case something went wrong with my drone. The yard was quite busy. I filmed this with a Mavic Pro2 in beautiful full 4K UHD 30fps June-14-2019 enjoy!
CSX Queensgate Yard is a freight railroad yard of CSX Transportation in Cincinnati , Ohio . It is located in the lower valley of Mill Creek , which stretches from north to south over the neighborhoods of Camp Washington and Queensgate. The river runs on the west side of the eight-kilometer-long station and then flows into the Ohio River . The station was built in the 1970s by the holding company Chessie System , which since 1973 the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway , the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and theWestern Maryland Railway included and merged in 1987 in the CSX Transportation . From Wiki
Some of the best and professionally produced aerial footage of railways I've seen. Visited Cincinnati over 10 years ago from the UK great place for railroads. Great work, Be Proud
I watch video like this to find inspiration to model my layout in Trainz 2019. Thank you.
I was with CSX (then Chessie System prior to the merger) when they collapsed several smaller yards in the Cincinnati area into Queensgate. Much more efficient operation and they locals liked it because it eliminated scores of grade crossings. Back in 1978 Queensgate had two humps. I see that has expanded.
A great video.
Thank you
Awesome I love those trains I mean I like how they look and I love CSX Do more awesome videos and i like them
Thank you for this video!!
Pretty cool! I cant believe its not raining though. I thought it rained everyday for the past couple weeks.
I didn't think I was going to make it! Thanks! I enjoy your videos also!
.. no music please . Like the industrial landscape
Hi over here in the UK we do not have any Hump yards , went years ago, i loved watching them working at March Tinsley and Toton ect
mesmerizing, with great music too...........thanks.........gonna watch this one again...........
I start work here for a company soon, I'm hoping if I've done Chicago I can do here, it looks pretty big.
Excellent video, thought you used an airplane , in HO scale I suppose you couldn’t duplicate that for under 100K
Wow - that's a lot to process...answered a few questions I always had! Thanks!
I-75 is parallel with CSX Queensgate railroad classification Yards in Cincinnati Ohio with a quarter mile apart, but it cannot be view because the buildings are in the way as well as other tall objects. There are a total of 48 tracks, 12 humps, and 6 groups of 8 tracks each for the main classification yard.
There are 50 tracks in the Classification Bowl... ONE HUMP, one Master Retarder & 7 GROUP Retarders lead into Tracks 1 through 50. The tracks North of the Bowl is the Departure Yard... If I remember correctly, about 10 tracks + & the tracks South of the Hump is the Receiving Yard... Again, if I remember correctly, about 10 tracks + & the entire yard from the North End (nearest I-74 & I-75) to the South End (just shy of the Ohio River) or in the direction the drone is flying, is just about three (3) miles. The yard just East (or at the top) of Queensgate at about the four (4) minute mark (+/-) is the Norfolk Southern Yard & East of that (again, at the top) is the shared Intermodal Ramp for both railroads. The tracks running East & West at the South end of Queensgate Yard is the old Baltimore & Ohio (B&O) Indiana Subdivision that runs to Washington, Indiana - about 200 miles West, pretty much following U.S. Rte. 50. Queensgate Yard "humps" approximately 1,800 cars every 24 hours depending on traffic levels & operates 24/7/363.
All yards need to look so pristine!
As a former Cincinnati resident, this was so neat.
Image there yard was full of hoppers

Nice!!!
By far the best train video I've seen in a long time!!!!
Shaun Williams Thank you very much! I’m hoping to get to do some more this year.
@@pkevpik Howd you fly that drone that far
Great video! Had no idea how large those yards are. The drone has revolutionized railroad photography.
Great video never knew that yard was so large!
It took almost 15 minutes to fly over it!
Neither do the people that live right by it..Kids are so oblivious these days.. I sure didnt myself but I am 1000 miles away..

Question: with Queensgate so close, I was surprised to see that other yard right across the bridge. What do they do over there?
Look how empty the bowl is!! Depressing.
ITellMyself Secrets not too long ago, that bowl was full. Especially after Russell closed and that traffic was routed there. Sad to see it like this.
Music sucks
