If you don't know by now, trains can carry almost anything if the occasional calls for it. Military equipment, construction vehicles, transformers, you name it. Some areas see certain special moves more than others, and in the case of Atlanta a certain type of high and wide move is not common: turbines. Out in the West, with open land and wind, turbine trains are expected, but in the southern corner of the U.S. such trains are sparing and quite the sight to see. Fortunately, there was a little sprint of these uncommon railroad moves that happened in the course of about two months, and I fortunately was able to document one of them for your viewing pleasure. I pray you enjoy.

w those dash 9s on the CN roster is getting smaller and smaller and great video.
Awesome work as always man!
Train terminated in Morehead City NC to the CLNA (company I work for) then trucked to Elizabeth City area as you have posted at 21:44
i railfan in brighton, some times BNSF take empty flats to the facility, then I believe Union Pacific takes them up to Denver and hands them off to BNSF. I could be wrong on that, and at that facility they have a little switcher WAMX 1216 to move the flat cars around, and move loaded cars to separate tracks for Union Pacific or BNSF to take.
those C44-9WLs are always a nice sight to see 🔥🔥🔥
Cool catches especially with that CN dash 9!
I love it, your getting little bit more better in content, and commentary, like the pros, you know who iam talking about, one of the best 3 railroad channels! Trains21, distant signal, & delay in block productions. Be like that but little bit different and your channel will grow 💯
Dude your cinematics just get better and better
I appreciate that, man, thanks. :)
Nice spot to watch NS cool video at least you heard one NS horn to.
All kinds of great action captured at the busy yard.. Great grab and information provided on the crane that you caught. The wind turbine info. was interesting as well.. Nice job on this video Mr. Loco !!
HOLY GRAIL ITS THE BC RAIL!!!❤
Caught these guys as soon as they got onto the NS in New Orleans. Ended up chasing them 40 or so miles.
Awesome Train Cars. 👍🏽😎👍🏽
Phenomenal brother. If we ever collab, it will be one for the centuries
@@multicolorfilms The world not ready for a collab between us. 👀
Nice video! Those wind turbine trains are definitely one of the coolest trains I’ve seen around here, never thought I’d ever see them without having to go out west (I got the first two that ran, I was right beside iceclimber when he was getting that video). The train in this video as well as the three other turbine trains were going to Morehead City, NC where the parts were offloaded to be taken to an offshore farm. The blades were sent in by ship so we won’t see those come through here unfortunately (probably because of clearance problems).
I caught that same 27A when it left Rutherford, PA 👍
Awesome stuff. Love your storytelling style.
4641 sure has gone a long way since I saw it back in July. About 961 Miles from Wisconsin Rapids, WI to Inman
I saw it back in April in Illinois
Saw 4641 in Nova Scotia back in July as well.
Hey Loco, just to let you know NS 8098 CONRAIL is going to be in Atlanta Georgia probably tomorrow
I'll probably miss it, but I appreciate you telling me. What train is it on?
@@LocoPro sorry for such the late response it’s on NS 219
i remember this day that i saw 1164 passing norcross fast then moments later CN8839 stalled just seconds before getting to southeastern rail museum
Very good video, can’t wait for the next one man, keep up the good work
Great video twin❗️
Kinda unlucky with 4641. There were just 4 C44-9WLs built for BCOL. One of them was scrapped due to a fire, and of the 3 that remain, 4641 is the one unit that doesn’t wear it’s classic BC rail red white and blue scheme. The other two active BCOL units, 4642 and 4644, wear that original scheme. I say “unlucky” but even just seeing a C44-9WL is a rare event. Only 26 were ever built and they are one of my personal all time favorites. I’ve seen one of the CN units, 2517, which is one of 22 of them that CN got delivered.
Man I KNOW, I was actually in disbelief when I found out it was the only one. 😭
I remember when this train ran thru Denver. I believe the CN motors came from Eola or Galesburg (off of the CN) with the empty flats and ran West as a BNSF train. They then interchanged with the UP in Denver and loaded at the Brighton facility before heading to New Orleans as yet again a BNSF train.
It’s interesting, it never seems like these trains originate in Brighton at the facility, but they bring the cars from elsewhere and will load within a matter of hours and leave.
Love the vids man keep it up
@@Clearto363 Really cool insight you brought here, thanks for sharing. 🖤
For the crane, the boxcar is a tool car, anything they could need incase it breaks down, and the gondola holds other booms the crane can change out depending on the job
You should gave gotten 057 in a horn because the leader has a P5
Yeah, I know, wish I could have heard it but having finals to study and having no car does indeed limit where you can go.
Are finals important at that point?
@@LocoPro yeah not having a car is a big limiting factor
@ …I hope this wasn’t a serious question. 😭😂
New video moment.
Yet another great video, this makes me want to go to Inman yard again
Yeah I am definitely going to Atlanta in a month or 2
Have fun and stay safe, fam.
the 057 train goes to morhead NC to a port where they ship it out, and i heard about that train and planned to get it but they took the power off sadly
The man who summoned 1000 AC44C6M's to the NS roster has re-enterd your comment section
Nice catches
The minecraft music is elite!
Man of culture. 🤝
@LocoPro lol
W catch Great video :)
Well, I miss your premier 🙁
no i missed the premiere 😭
This will be interesting
good job pookie bear
I didn't know this train was out and had this power, and I ended up catching it anyway. 😂
30:19 before school ended for summer? Either bros living way in the future or WAY in the past.
Look at the date in the description. 😂
Nice video
I think I saw 8839 up here in Illinois on the peoria sub
Awesome video loco! What camera do you use for filming?
I use a Canon G70, friend. :)
I am going to cook something
Alright chef,
Is it meth??🤔🧐
@@Seaboardsystem-t7e no!! It's not that it's my vid ❤💛🩶
wait why did i not know you were premiering
Skill issue. 🫵😂
@@LocoPro💀
YOO! Loco u should come to PA sometime! We’re getting CSX reroutes on our main NS line
Trips like these require m o n e y . 😂
@ I’ll pay airfare
Of course it’s in atlanta
Nooo I missed the premier but church is definitely more important did you get the heritage duo yesterday on 28C?
I most definitely did not wake up to go see that, I got school. 😂
LOCOOO!!! IF your near inman yard around these days be on the lookout because from what i know UP1982 (Missouri pacific) is arriving there just a heads up. UP1982 is also leading btw
Edit: I forgot to mention the train symbol which is NS 104 from what I know hopefully this helps if you see it!!!
Atlanta ah moment
I wonder if it went thru Kansas
Please release a sound track 🙏🙏🙏
Or at least tell me the name of the song at 14:54
@@HTrailfan11 I think you forgot the timestamp. 😂
@ Please 🙏 I need the name.
I’ve been going crazy trying to find it and have had no luck.
@@HTrailfan11 C418 - Chirp
And in my video I transitioned into "Orb of Dreamers."
Is that a cn comfort cab dash 8 trailing?
Dash 9.
So what I'm hearing based on the end of this video is.... 2102 TOMWERO?
Sometime "relatively soon." 😂
11:06 The police are coming for you. Run!!!!!!
What music did you use at 28:28

Hey Loco! It will be my first time out railfanning in Atlanta Tomorrow! Got any tips? Where should I go?
Hey there, so sorry I’m late on this. I’m assuming you’re out now so here’s my advice:
If you’re driving, only places you really need to be going are Howell Wye and Inman. If you’re parking at Inman, you gotta park in the median, so be very watchful for the roads because a lot of trucks go through there. You have to cross the road to see the shops and go to the other side to have a view of CSX. At Howell Wye both NS and CSX are right there. Don’t be dismayed if you are not seeing a parade of trains as soon as you go out. Give time for the magic to kick in. ;)
Also, do NOT stay out at night. Stay safe, fam.
You’re railfanning while I’m suffering from food poisoning because of Taco Bell
Get better soon, gang.
@ thanks
How do you check the crew times and stuff like that?
It's not public info, you gotta know someone who works with NS who'll give updates.
Is that a -9WL second?
Yessuh.
What's with the signal head on the wooden pole at 14:56
I truly have no clue.
@LocoPro ok interesting 🤔
Hey loco, I have got a question. I’m starting a TH-cam channel I live in northeast Kansas on the UP Kansas sub what should my channel name be?
U h , I would suggest not making it something basic like "UP Kansas Sub Railfan" or something because everyone does that. I ain't really got enough info to give you a good name, though. Just try to be different from everyone else in a good way. :)
@ thank you!
This was just an excuse to yap about wind turbines
God forbid I film a turbine part and talk about it. 😂😂
You Getting UP 1982?
Nah.
@@LocoPro How Come?
@@KeeganStevens Because I have other stuff to do and it's not coming here until past midnight.
@@LocoPro Fair
tragedy
This wasn't even running your line. 😂
@@LocoProalso uhhh (unpunish)
Wheres that location
Inman Yard in Atlanta, GA.
@LocoPro thank you!
Why dose the thumbnail look like is ai generated
@@Rosettasweitzer What makes it look AI? 😂
@ I actually don’t know I think from a far it kind of looks like is ai generated is probably just what the train is hailing
@ Part of the image is blurred, maybe that’s what makes it look unreal?
@ yeah that’s probably why😂
GIVE ME OUR CN BACK PLEASEEEEEE
No. 🫵😂
@ we will just steal your NS
So I'm first
