So glad you both are ok. Cars can be replaced human lives like yours and RJ's can't. Maybe take some time off and rest up. Adventures can happen as soon as your feeling better. Happy Holidays to RJ, his family, and you and your family.
I'm glad you are both not seriously injured. As RJ said, I have great memories in that Escape as well with riding together when we went to the abandoned turnpike, the drivestreams, which were always fun and full of laughs, and all the collaborations. I too hope they repair the car. From the damage pics, the main frame rails look straight, just the radiator support ,which can be easily pulled out. The radiator and bags will need swapped out obviously, bit it looks like it can be repaired, especially being only 4 years old. At any rate, you and RJ are alright, and that is the most important thing.
I am very glad that it wasn't worse then it actually was. It sucks that it happened at all. I am also hoping for a positive outcome for your car. I know how much it means to you and I can say it also has some awesome memories for me too. I am glad you got the footage you did and am happy to hear you have a chance to see Blue Beauty again soon. Staying positive as always brother.
I just left a comment for Jay but, I thought I'd mention it to you as well don't know the law out there myself but here in the state of Illinois if you have a drawbar in your receiver and you're not pulling a trailer... well that's against the law here, even though everybody still does it, LOL 🤣 Oh, I think 🤔 maybe you owe Jay a new radiator for that one LOL 🤪 Hope your truck ain't hurt too much take care RJ
My truck had a bent bumper too..there’s a large bracket that is ford exclusive..it holds the bumper up. That is around 5K. I got rear ended on July 30 this year. Truck was done today and we went to pick it up..they scratched my front bumper! Huge long scrape too. All the way across the bumper. The wreck damage was fixed. But I caught the new damage, they didn’t call or anything to fess up. I asked to see the before shots from before they fixed my wreck damage, he said..”it’s not there”. He found a beautiful unscathed front bumper. They are fixing it for free. I’m glad you and RJ are safe! Yeah our trucks do a number on cars. I’m sorry to see your car on the rollback, that’s a sucky feeling 😞 I have a feeling you can get it rebuilt..or your insurance company may total it. If repairs cost more than the car is worth. See what they say, maybe you can sway them to fix it instead?
I'm happy that you're alright. Always stinks being in an accident because now you have to deal with the cops and the insurance company. The train footage was phenomenal! Thanks for taking us along.
Just thank God no one was hurt and relax and let the process work. Just relax JP. The train video you did get was awesome. I have had a few accidents in life. The next day after you rest and sleep things will look better.
Glad you and RJ are ok. This same scenario happened to me up in Harrisburg. A lady rear ended me because I had to stop suddenly. The person in front of me stopped all of a sudden for no reason. Fingers crossed that your car is salvageable. Regarding the train footage, the angle you got with the Action 3 was epic! I loved how the train pushed the fog out. Very cool indeed. Again, glad you guys are ok. Vehicles can be replaced, people cannot.
Thankful y'all are o.k. ...such a bummer about your car ..Glad you were able to get some good train footage .....beautiful still shots..loved the fog pushing out of the tunnel . Praying you don't suffer whiplash or any further pain.
I am glad you and RJ are ok. Thank God it wasn't worse. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if your air bags went off the car more than likely will be totaled. Wrecks are awful to go through. I have been in two car wrecks and a very major motorcycle wreck that left me for dead. In all three wrecks I wasn't even the driver. The footage of the fog was wild and beautiful. I pray that you don't have pain down the road from this. Be thankful you were able to walk away. ✌
Omg Jay, I am so glad you are both okay, cars can get replaced but you two guys are irreplaceable. You could possibly be suffering from whiplash so keep a note if your shoulder and neck pain doesn't get better. The train action was cool, I got goose bump's when the 425 Blue Beauty came through and exited the tunnel, wow. Thank you for sharing, I really hope you get your car back good as new and the same for RJ, I hope his truck is okay, much love to you both. xx ❤
So sorry about the accident! Glad you are ok! Hope RJ is ok too. I’ve been in a few minor accidents including being rear ended but not rear ending someone else. It’s no fun! I hope they can fix your escape. We had 3 of those and we loved them. Couldn’t afford one last time but my goal is to get into another one even if it’s a few years old.
Glad u guys are safe and you get another chance to record the train (which was very cool). A couple of years ago a person ran a red light and hit me on the back passenger side and spun me around. The sound of metal hitting metal alone is terrifying. The air bags didn't deploy, thank goodness. But it shook me up. Hopefully your car is repairable, mine wasn't, the tire and. axel ended up in the trunk. Thank you for sharing as always.
I'm sure glad ya'll weren't severely injured! From what I'm seeing in damage your car looks very repairable, I've been a autobody repairman since 1980 and have fixed alot worse! It depends on the book value and your insurance company. But I must say besides the accident you did some Awesome camera work! Awesome video! Other than the accident!
Sorry about the accident and your car. That can definitely ruin your day for sure. Good thing is you didn’t get seriously hurt or injured. Could have been worse. As always great videos. Keep up the good work.
Dang JP I'm really sorry to hear that! And sorry about your car 🚙 but am really glad y'all are ok. Really enjoyed the train footage...it was awesome 👍🥰👍 Hope all goes well with fixing your car 🚙 so sorry y'all had to go through that but glad y'all are all ok 👌 Take care and stay safe 😊 Blessed be and have a great day 😁🥰👍
Sorry about the accident but really glad that you and R.J are okay. Video was awesome! Particularly liked the fog. Best of luck getting your car fixed. Stay safe.
With the price of vehicles right now, that may not be totalled. Good Samaritan accidents like that are a bummer, thatd why i NEVER obey the signals of other drivers trying to be nice. Its a crappy lesson to learn in that regard, but glad that youre ok and didn't need urgent medical care. You'll be kinda timid the next few times you get behind the wheel, just go the speed limit, use your blinkers and just allow faster traffic by until you get comfortable again. Take care, JP
Glad you and RJ are doing okay. I hope they can repair the car for you. The psychological trauma will take time to heal. But, it will get better over time. The beginning where you were just walking made me think of a movie from about 20 years ago. Can't remember the name but I kept waiting for something to happen. Really great video of the trains. The preceding fog was really cool. Your pictures turned out awesome.
Main thing is you're alright and no one was seriously hurt. It was an accident, something unforeseen no one ever intends to happen. I really hope your car is repairable, too. Best thing is you got fantastic film footage and shared it with all of us. Pretty awesome, too! And bonus -- you get some more chances to film again! That's awesome! Thanks so much for bringing us all along on your adventures. Great camera work! Take Care, Stay safe & have Fun on your next adventure!
So sorry this happened and very thankful that you and RJ are both ok and safe. I hope for you that your car is fixable too! You got some beautiful train footage JP! I love that view from the underneath of the train and seeing that fog being pushed out is so cool! In my opinion your photos are excellent! Take care, rest up, and thank you! 💙
I am glad that no one was seriously hurt in the accident....It definitely is scary and shocking to be in an accident.... I was in an accident (I was a passenger) back in Feb. 2020 because of a guy running a red light and I had similarr issues as well, I was in shock, and shacken up and then the slight stiffness, strain and memory lapse after it happened....Thanks JP for the details and the other video update, I like the transition from the video of yourself talking to your home then back to the video. Again, I"m glad everyone is okay. The train footage was excellent BTW, great stuff.
That really stinks what happened to your car, JP. I hope you can get it fixed soon. I had an incident in my own car in the snow awhile back. I didn't mind driving in snow before, but for months afterward I would loathe driving in it. But I stuck with it and I'm finally at the point I don't mind it again. I guess what I'm trying to say is, the fun of driving comes back with time. Glad you and RJ are alright. The video turned out well. I especially liked the engine pushing the fog ahead of it, and the sill picture of the engine coming out of the tunnel @ 17:34.
I hope both of you are okay. I had an accident in 2004 with almost the same circumstances as yours. My car was totaled because the frame was bent. But thankfully no major injuries. Take care JP so glad it wasn’t worse.
Unbelievable footage JP! Sorry the day had to end with an accident & hopefully there are no residual side effects and that your life wasn’t endangered. To be safe down the road, have the doctor look at it or get an X-ray. I got whiplash without knowing it until 10 days later. Feel better soon….the rest is just time, some $ and aggravation! Prayers for good outcomes! 🙏
Remember cars are just THINGS, even with the memories being hard as hell to lose, its better than losing life!!! You ARE STILL a great driver and dont forget that even the BEST are prone to life and mistakes. When a door closes a window will open as God ALWAYS has a plan for you and He knows best. My prayers are with you, and dont let it rattle you. Being such a safe driver, and it being a friend, and the circumstances, DON'T let that make you believe you are anything other than a GREAT driver. More people should care like you do and it will work out for the best, and you just need to keep Faith and HOPE! GOD BLESS and you are STILL a good driver and the car situation will work out!
Oh jay and RJ, I’m so very sorry. It does mentally wipe you out. Everything you said and feel is normal. You’re all blessed no one seriously hurt for medical attention. The footage you got of the trail was awesome. Take care
Just like everyone else, I'm glad you are okay and RJ too, only minor injuries. The footage that you did get is awesome, it was fascinating to see the motion of the track as the train went over it. It was cool to see the fog move out when the train came out of the tunnel too. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more videos.
From what I can see, that tow hitch was the main cause of all of that damage (reason why I don't wear hitches if I am not towing). No one is at fault, but the hitch is a pretty good way to mess your car up quick other than removing a shin in a parking lot. Glad that everyone is okay!!
that fog was incredible. so glad you are okay. and hopefully your car will be too. wish it was not with a friend tho. feel bad for you and RJ. Keep your chin up.
@@JPVideos81 Still looking for a car to replace mine There is no Inventory and such high prices.more stressing than the dam accident. Good Luck JP hope the car can be repaired.
Footage from the top of the tunnel would also have been cool to see, but that would entail a steep climb up. The footage right beside the tracks on the ground, you can just feel the power of those trains! Nice job putting all that together!
i really liked the fog coming out that was cool. Glad you guys are good. i know most is the time when the air bag deployed they will total the car. lets just hope thats not the case.
Sorry that happened! Just sucks that it all happened to you all when you both were just out having some fun catching trains! I’ve been there before myself. Don’t be too hard on yourselves. It could of been a lot worse. Hopefully the insurance wont total it. It’s a 2018 and it probably has a low mileage engine. It looks to be an easy fix. Just need a front bumper, hood/ headlights A/C condenser/radiator/ cooling fans etc…Plenty of parts in junkyards or online. It’s do-able
Great video... Tunnel shots were incredible. I'm sorry to hear about the accident. Yes it's a bad time of year for this kind of expense. Praying you heal quickly.
Sorry about the accident and thankful you guys are okay. The footage was incredible as usual; I especially loved seeing the fog pushed ahead of the train. I’ve never seen anything like that! Thank you and I hope your vehicle gets fixed in a timely manner…..🌝
Hi! First, I'm glad you and RJ weren't seriously hurt, second, I loved the different views of the trains, really nice footage. Hope you can salvage your car! Take care :) 😀
Accidents happen. Glad everyone is ok. Hopefully the car can be fixed and won't cost a ton. But seems like these days they total them out. Keep us posted on the outcome
That was my first thought after seeing thumbnail, if anyone was hurt. Glad to know everyone is ok. Oh your poor car, we spent a lot of time in that car, drive arounds and road trips. Yes you will stay shaky for a bit. Train shots were marvelous.
I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’m so very glad your alright. It could happen to anyone so don’t have bad dreams about it. That’s why it’s call an accident instead of an on purpose. Great video of the train. Put your best foot forward as you always do. My thoughts are with you and a good outcome with your car. Hugs.
wow just wow, amazing footage, sorry about you car accident, hopefully you get lucky and your insurance will fix the car, here in ontario the insurance companies most of the time right the vehicles off that have front end damage. take care and rest up the next few days you will be sore.
Sorry about your accident. Your footage of the steam engine was awesome. Especially the ground shot. I love steam, especially the 611J. She's the first one I have known about or seen in person. Thank you for your work.
The train footage was awesome, especially coming out of that fog-filled tunnel! I'm just so sad that it may have cost you your car. Hopefully, it can be repaired. I can only imagine your mental state of mind at the moment and I pray you can overcome the trauma. RJ must also have a deep feeling of regret since it involved you. Certainly thankful that neither of you were badly hurt. Look forward to seeing the Blue Beauty before its retirement.
OK this comment is going in order of viewing! What an amazing video! Those trains coming through the tunnel...just wow! Especially my fav the 425! Just wow that fog! Amazing! Then the accident. I am so sorry that it happened but just like it is called, it's an accident. You can't change it but you can learn! I hope your car gets fixed but it looks pretty bad. Hope RJ's truck is ok too and that he is ok! Love you guys! Thank you for sharing! 💙
I'm glad everyone is okay. This is why it's important to remove the hitch from the receiver when not towing. It takes less than a minute to do. Saves on ankle damage too.
sorry to hear about the accident, I'll bet you will be sore for a day or so...I have been I two accidents in my 50 or so years driving, yeah, I'm getting up there ...lol... like you I wasn't hurt in either, but I kept reliving the accidents in my mind for a few days, I'm sure all will work out
Awesome shots JP! I love the train lights in the fog. I hope that your car is repaired and we can have a celebratory Christmas lights ride-along! Take care of sore muscles with alternating heat and cold packs, ibuprofen if you can take it, and soak in a tub with epsom salts. A massage or two would be nice too! Do gentle range of motion movement to work out the stiffness, but don't over use or over stretch the muscles for a week. (ok nurse hat is off now). Happy that it wasn't worse, sorry you had to break your no-accident streak. That sucks.
Of coarse glad everyone is ok and I feel for you on the loss of the car right now. Your car becomes your friend, your little buddy.. so I feel for you there. Hope it's repairable... but on a good note the train thur the tunnel was fantastic..
I'm glad nobody got injured badly. Too bad about your Escape, just as you said it can be replaced if need be. Accidents do happen to the best drivers, they're just that; it was not intentional. Hope all works out for you and your vehicle (insurance isn't fun to deal with). You did get some spectacular footage though 👍🤙
JP, glad you're ok! I watched your other video before this one. Seeing those trains coming through the tunnel was cool. You're in my prayers and so is RJ.
I’m sorry about your car but glad no one was hurt. Take care care of yourself! You did get some good train footage. I hope no trip to the ER is in your future.
Aw Jay sweetheart please don't say you are no longer a safe driver .... Let me tell you that some evil drivers stop for no reason so the driver behind gets into trouble so they can claim on the insurance. I am so sorry this happened to you both, you are such sweet, nice guys. This happened to my husband as someone went into the back of him and he had severe whiplash and like you he was very shook up and he is also a good driver. I do hope you feel much better soon, and I wish I was there to comfort you as a friend. I was straight on this video when I saw your title and thumbnail. Sending you and R.J. positive vibes and hugs. God bless you and I am so glad you both got out of that nasty crash ok and not seriously hurt. You have God to thank for that and its great news that you can still see your favorite steam train again In December. Nice shots by the way, well done. Everything will be ok ...
I was thinking along those lines myself especially if they saw the wave on. Thinking that truck is not going to stop for sure now. That or they are one of those people who simply like to do brake checks to be a jerk.
Knowing RBMN, 425 may be back sooner than we think. I breifly saw her in the shed this Saturday and she seemed fairly complete. Her cylinders looked fairly new and cleaned. Seems like they were doing some other stuff since her cab was off to the side. It’s possible with the right amount of money and time she could be done by the end of next year
Glad you and RJ are ok !! Cars can be fixed easy .....people well...not so much !!! But if it is consolation those pictures at the end were really sweet !!! 👍👍 I love old steam locomotives !! And that tunnel was awesome !!! This was a great video keep us posted on the car if you can .....I think with some time and parts it can be just like it was .
Watching the trains was fantastic! Praise the Lord no one was hurt in the accident! You'll be back on the road again soon! I know it's tramatic when an accident o
Damn this was truly a "best of times, worst of times" video, Jay, and I'm still so sorry to hear what happened to two of my friends. First and foremost, I'm relieved that neither of you are injured. But I also know car prices are through the roof and inventories are close to nil, so I very much hope you can get it repaired. On the brighter side, your train footage was absolutely EPIC!!! I have felt the pressure of trains coming through tunnels before, but I've never seen such a stunning visual of the foggy air being pushed out like that. All great shots, and the RDCs were a great catch as well. I very much enjoyed our ride on them last year, and I'm thrilled you finally got to railfan them. Nick and I saw you as we rode by, but there was so much smoke in your video we weren't visible (we shut our window before the tunnel). I'm glad for all of us that 425 is getting 4 more runs this year, and even gladder for you since it gives you a second chance. We know the dates, and I'll send you specifics about the schedules when I learn more. Hope we can catch up for a day of fun with The Blue Beauty before her inspection and overhaul. I'm still learning about the 1,472 day inspection, but the basics are the FRA mandates that every 1,472 a boiler is fired up or 15 years elapse from the first firing, the boiler has to be inspected and re-tubed. No one knows for sure how long it will take, but the best estimates are 6 to 12 months, but possibly longer if they find any major problems. I'll certainly keep you in the loop as I hear more. I hope they let folks visit the steam shop while the work is being done. That might be another fun outing we could do. Anyway, sorry again to hear about the accident. As you've said in other comments, hoping for the best but expecting the worst.
I'm trying to look at the bright side of things from the day and the situation. Definitely happy I can see #425 next month. That Definitely brightened my mood.
I truly hope all goes well. I got into an accident in 86. Following someone I didn't know to a place and discuss business. To make a long story short it resulted in a rear end accident. I really don't want to follow anyone ever but if need be I'd be very very careful. All the best
Glad to hear that nobody was hurt. That’s the most important part! On the brighter side will you be purchasing a blue vehicle if the white one is totaled ?
That was such great footage the train pushing this fog out reminds me of a ghost train that was excellent that sucks that happened I'm glad both of you guys are all right
That really sucks man, and being a car guy I really get the sentimental attachment to vehicles. But in the end, it's just a vehicle, as long as you guys are all right that's what truly matters. Still sucks but that's what matters. I bought my Impala back in 2013 and that car has brought me 150,000 MI around this beautiful country, and I bought it to replace my 2001 Impala that brought me 265,000 Mi around this country. We grow attached to these things. Also if we have a highway like that, the Merit or Wilbur cross parkway, it was initially designed in the 1930s so there stop signs instead of ramps to get up to speed because cars only did like 40 back then. Three or four days a week I see an accident at least one of those entrance ramps. When I first got my license back in the 90s I did the same thing, the car in front of me left, I looked to make sure it was clear and luckily my girlfriend at the time was in the car and yelled. I was able to hit the brakes, if not for her I would have crashed. Since that day 20 some odd years ago, I wait for the car in front of me to fully be on the highway before I even look for traffic, just because I know what is going to happen, people always hit the brakes after they start going for whatever reason. Sorry for the long message, God bless and glad you both are safe. And like you said it's the worst time of year to do this with the holidays but hopefully you make out okay. Cars are hard to come by and use car prices are ridiculous. Maybe you get something cheap to get through Christmas and reevaluate in january? But I honestly would not recommend that, going to the whole looking and purchasing things twice it's just more work than it's worth. I had a few vehicles I picked up cheap, went through and resold, hell if I still had one I would just let you use the damn thing for a few months.
Car accidents are no fun. I had my first major accident a few months ago. At least a few years before that, I was in a fair ride accident that caused an annular tear in my C6/7 disc. There's no fixing it, so my shoulder just droops down and I get clicking popping if I move a certain way. Back to a few months ago, I was leaving work and was sitting at a red light. I am very cautious and wait after lights turn green in case someone tries to run the light. The light turned green, I wait 5-10 seconds. The car on the left side of me had already pulled out and turned. I start creeping out into the intersection. By this point, it had been nearly 20 seconds since the light had been green. I was halfway across the intersection and no one was coming. I assumed no one is going to try to run the light. I had just accelerated my car when suddenly I was facing the other direction after hearing a huge thump. A lady, who had her daughter and grandbaby in the car, decided to not stop and just run the light. Even after seeing a car turn and being more than 50 feet away, far enough to see and know the light is red. Her daughter even told her she was not going to make it. Lady tried anyways and didn't even brake. Just hit me head on. Absolutely destroyed mine and her car. We all went to the hospital. I got the whole work up and was told I was fine and sent home. No pain meds or anything. I ended up in urgent care a couple days later and was told I was injured and given muscle relaxers and pain meds. I have not quite fully recovered at this point. I need to go back to the doctor and have another MRI on my spine. I am so afraid I tore my disc even more. My shoulder is drooping even farther now and it is very noticeable. It causes a lot of pain to hold my shoulder up for more than a few seconds. I get almost constant clicking and popping in my neck and shoulder, and occasional pain. To top it off, if I push/pull hard or carry something heavy, I get tingling down my arm and then numb. As soon as I stop, I get feeling back. I am glad your accident was minor. Hopefully you make a full recovery and get your car fixed.
Oh no 😱 glad you’re OK JP No it’s not fun being in a accident you will be sore for a while I hope they can fix your car collision shops can do amazing things
sorry to hear you have a accident , but your alright .when i had my first accident i didn't want to drive , but my friends and i were going out that day and they made me drive so i got over it fast .....take care ...
Really glad you are doing ok. Hopefully your car can be fix and I hope you don’t have to much trouble with your insurance. I always love your photos at the end, you get amazing shots!
24hrs later I'm still sore and pretty upset about the situation, but glad neither of us were seriously injured.
Sorry JP I hope u feel better soon, please take care of yourself. Your fans will pray for your recovery!
On the lighter side......JP, your car looks similar to N&W 475 @ Strasburg, after it hit the excavator.......same speed, 10 mph.
So glad you both are ok. Cars can be replaced human lives like yours and RJ's can't. Maybe take some time off and rest up. Adventures can happen as soon as your feeling better. Happy Holidays to RJ, his family, and you and your family.
@@eastcoastmodz5195 thankfully I have a small backlog of videos to put out but yes, I'll be taking a little break.
I’m so sorry. That is exactly how I rear ended someone years ago. I never forgot it either.
I'm glad you are both not seriously injured. As RJ said, I have great memories in that Escape as well with riding together when we went to the abandoned turnpike, the drivestreams, which were always fun and full of laughs, and all the collaborations. I too hope they repair the car. From the damage pics, the main frame rails look straight, just the radiator support ,which can be easily pulled out. The radiator and bags will need swapped out obviously, bit it looks like it can be repaired, especially being only 4 years old. At any rate, you and RJ are alright, and that is the most important thing.
🤗
@@rj78productions88 you’re awesome! You two take care of each other from what I see 😊 glad you both are ok! 😊😊
I am very glad that it wasn't worse then it actually was. It sucks that it happened at all. I am also hoping for a positive outcome for your car. I know how much it means to you and I can say it also has some awesome memories for me too. I am glad you got the footage you did and am happy to hear you have a chance to see Blue Beauty again soon. Staying positive as always brother.
I just left a comment for Jay but, I thought I'd mention it to you as well don't know the law out there myself but here in the state of Illinois if you have a drawbar in your receiver and you're not pulling a trailer... well that's against the law here, even though everybody still does it, LOL 🤣 Oh, I think 🤔 maybe you owe Jay a new radiator for that one LOL 🤪
Hope your truck ain't hurt too much take care RJ
@@justinhobart8747 The Police did not mention anything about that, will have to see what insurance says.
The old 7.3 took it like a champ!
Hoping nothing like this ever happens again
@@JPVideos81 agreed. 👍
My truck had a bent bumper too..there’s a large bracket that is ford exclusive..it holds the bumper up. That is around 5K. I got rear ended on July 30 this year. Truck was done today and we went to pick it up..they scratched my front bumper! Huge long scrape too. All the way across the bumper. The wreck damage was fixed. But I caught the new damage, they didn’t call or anything to fess up. I asked to see the before shots from before they fixed my wreck damage, he said..”it’s not there”. He found a beautiful unscathed front bumper. They are fixing it for free.
I’m glad you and RJ are safe! Yeah our trucks do a number on cars. I’m sorry to see your car on the rollback, that’s a sucky feeling 😞 I have a feeling you can get it rebuilt..or your insurance company may total it. If repairs cost more than the car is worth. See what they say, maybe you can sway them to fix it instead?
Glad you and RJ are ok! That's alot of damage for only 10mph. Loved the fog!
I'm happy that you're alright. Always stinks being in an accident because now you have to deal with the cops and the insurance company. The train footage was phenomenal! Thanks for taking us along.
Big headache from what started out as a great day.
Too bad about your accident. The first is always the hardest. I'm glad to see you are ok.
Glad you're alright but your car will never be the same but you will get over it but great video anyway thanks JP and RJ
Sorry to hear about the car accident JP, that was amazing to see the fog pushed out of the tunnel. I hope your doing better JP
Just thank God no one was hurt and relax and let the process work. Just relax JP. The train video you did get was awesome. I have had a few accidents in life. The next day after you rest and sleep things will look better.
Glad you and RJ are ok. This same scenario happened to me up in Harrisburg. A lady rear ended me because I had to stop suddenly. The person in front of me stopped all of a sudden for no reason. Fingers crossed that your car is salvageable. Regarding the train footage, the angle you got with the Action 3 was epic! I loved how the train pushed the fog out. Very cool indeed. Again, glad you guys are ok. Vehicles can be replaced, people cannot.
I'm just glad that you and RJ are ok, I'm also hoping your car will be repaired, hope you feel better soon.
Thankful y'all are o.k. ...such a bummer about your car ..Glad you were able to get some good train footage .....beautiful still shots..loved the fog pushing out of the tunnel . Praying you don't suffer whiplash or any further pain.
The fog was so incredible. Made the effort to film there that much better.
I am glad you and RJ are ok. Thank God it wasn't worse. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if your air bags went off the car more than likely will be totaled. Wrecks are awful to go through. I have been in two car wrecks and a very major motorcycle wreck that left me for dead. In all three wrecks I wasn't even the driver. The footage of the fog was wild and beautiful. I pray that you don't have pain down the road from this. Be thankful you were able to walk away. ✌
Expecting the worst, but hoping for the best.
Thanks! Just a little bit towards your deductible. You are doing this for us!
Thanks so much Keith!
Omg Jay, I am so glad you are both okay, cars can get replaced but you two guys are irreplaceable. You could possibly be suffering from whiplash so keep a note if your shoulder and neck pain doesn't get better. The train action was cool, I got goose bump's when the 425 Blue Beauty came through and exited the tunnel, wow. Thank you for sharing, I really hope you get your car back good as new and the same for RJ, I hope his truck is okay, much love to you both. xx ❤
Praying for healing for you, and good fortune with your car!
So sorry about the accident! Glad you are ok! Hope RJ is ok too. I’ve been in a few minor accidents including being rear ended but not rear ending someone else. It’s no fun! I hope they can fix your escape. We had 3 of those and we loved them. Couldn’t afford one last time but my goal is to get into another one even if it’s a few years old.
Sorry this happened to you both, but thankful you two were not badly injured. I hope your car ends up ok as well. Beautiful footage BTW!
Glad u guys are safe and you get another chance to record the train (which was very cool). A couple of years ago a person ran a red light and hit me on the back passenger side and spun me around. The sound of metal hitting metal alone is terrifying. The air bags didn't deploy, thank goodness. But it shook me up. Hopefully your car is repairable, mine wasn't, the tire and. axel ended up in the trunk. Thank you for sharing as always.
gee. I just glad you are both all right . nice train and RDC footage.
I'm sure glad ya'll weren't severely injured! From what I'm seeing in damage your car looks very repairable, I've been a autobody repairman since 1980 and have fixed alot worse! It depends on the book value and your insurance company. But I must say besides the accident you did some Awesome camera work! Awesome video! Other than the accident!
Thanks Mitch. Hoping for a positive outcome.
Sorry about the accident and your car. That can definitely ruin your day for sure. Good thing is you didn’t get seriously hurt or injured. Could have been worse. As always great videos. Keep up the good work.
Dang JP I'm really sorry to hear that! And sorry about your car 🚙 but am really glad y'all are ok.
Really enjoyed the train footage...it was awesome 👍🥰👍
Hope all goes well with fixing your car 🚙 so sorry y'all had to go through that but glad y'all are all ok 👌
Take care and stay safe 😊 Blessed be and have a great day 😁🥰👍
Glad your both o.k.car is just a car. Life can change quickly. Hope for speedy recovering God's blessing to you both.
Taking accountability is so awesome proud of you bruh
💙
Sorry about the accident but really glad that you and R.J are okay. Video was awesome! Particularly liked the fog. Best of luck getting your car fixed. Stay safe.
💙 I have had that happen.
I was behind someone on a busy road trying to make a left turn.
At dark.
Same thing I thought they were going
Video of the trains were great, as always. Hope the car will work out for you but more importantly glad you are alright.
With the price of vehicles right now, that may not be totalled. Good Samaritan accidents like that are a bummer, thatd why i NEVER obey the signals of other drivers trying to be nice. Its a crappy lesson to learn in that regard, but glad that youre ok and didn't need urgent medical care. You'll be kinda timid the next few times you get behind the wheel, just go the speed limit, use your blinkers and just allow faster traffic by until you get comfortable again. Take care, JP
Awesome to catch the steam engine with amazing sounds. Glad everyone is alright. Accidents are scary but keep your head up high.
Glad you and RJ are doing okay. I hope they can repair the car for you. The psychological trauma will take time to heal. But, it will get better over time.
The beginning where you were just walking made me think of a movie from about 20 years ago. Can't remember the name but I kept waiting for something to happen. Really great video of the trains. The preceding fog was really cool. Your pictures turned out awesome.
Main thing is you're alright and no one was seriously hurt. It was an accident, something unforeseen no one ever intends to happen. I really hope your car is repairable, too. Best thing is you got fantastic film footage and shared it with all of us. Pretty awesome, too! And bonus -- you get some more chances to film again! That's awesome! Thanks so much for bringing us all along on your adventures. Great camera work! Take Care, Stay safe & have Fun on your next adventure!
😊💙
So sorry this happened and very thankful that you and RJ are both ok and safe. I hope for you that your car is fixable too! You got some beautiful train footage JP! I love that view from the underneath of the train and seeing that fog being pushed out is so cool! In my opinion your photos are excellent! Take care, rest up, and thank you! 💙
Thank you Gayle
I am glad that no one was seriously hurt in the accident....It definitely is scary and shocking to be in an accident.... I was in an accident (I was a passenger) back in Feb. 2020 because of a guy running a red light and I had similarr issues as well, I was in shock, and shacken up and then the slight stiffness, strain and memory lapse after it happened....Thanks JP for the details and the other video update, I like the transition from the video of yourself talking to your home then back to the video. Again, I"m glad everyone is okay. The train footage was excellent BTW, great stuff.
That really stinks what happened to your car, JP. I hope you can get it fixed soon. I had an incident in my own car in the snow awhile back. I didn't mind driving in snow before, but for months afterward I would loathe driving in it. But I stuck with it and I'm finally at the point I don't mind it again. I guess what I'm trying to say is, the fun of driving comes back with time. Glad you and RJ are alright.
The video turned out well. I especially liked the engine pushing the fog ahead of it, and the sill picture of the engine coming out of the tunnel @ 17:34.
I hope both of you are okay. I had an accident in 2004 with almost the same circumstances as yours. My car was totaled because the frame was bent. But thankfully no major injuries. Take care JP so glad it wasn’t worse.
That was totally awesome. Sorry to hear about your accident. Glad you’re OK.
Thanks!
You're welcome
Man, sorry about your car. But wow, those shots are pretty incredible!
Thank you!
So sorry about the accident but always remember that material things can be replaced. I’m glad both of you are ok.😊
I miss visiting Tamaqua. Take care of yourself.
Unbelievable footage JP! Sorry the day had to end with an accident & hopefully there are no residual side effects and that your life wasn’t endangered. To be safe down the road, have the doctor look at it or get an X-ray. I got whiplash without knowing it until 10 days later. Feel better soon….the rest is just time, some $ and aggravation! Prayers for good outcomes! 🙏
Thank you Sherrie
I’m just glad your ok, hang in Brother.
Remember cars are just THINGS, even with the memories being hard as hell to lose, its better than losing life!!!
You ARE STILL a great driver and dont forget that even the BEST are prone to life and mistakes. When a door closes a window will open as God ALWAYS has a plan for you and He knows best. My prayers are with you, and dont let it rattle you. Being such a safe driver, and it being a friend, and the circumstances, DON'T let that make you believe you are anything other than a GREAT driver. More people should care like you do and it will work out for the best, and you just need to keep Faith and HOPE! GOD BLESS and you are STILL a good driver and the car situation will work out!
Thanks so much
Oh jay and RJ, I’m so very sorry. It does mentally wipe you out. Everything you said and feel is normal. You’re all blessed no one seriously hurt for medical attention. The footage you got of the trail was awesome. Take care
Just like everyone else, I'm glad you are okay and RJ too, only minor injuries. The footage that you did get is awesome, it was fascinating to see the motion of the track as the train went over it. It was cool to see the fog move out when the train came out of the tunnel too. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more videos.
So sorry, hope you feel better soon. Cars can be fixed easier than bodies. The car did its job! Great video, loved the fog aspect.
From what I can see, that tow hitch was the main cause of all of that damage (reason why I don't wear hitches if I am not towing). No one is at fault, but the hitch is a pretty good way to mess your car up quick other than removing a shin in a parking lot. Glad that everyone is okay!!
If that wasn't there, my car wouldn't be nearly as bad.
that fog was incredible. so glad you are okay. and hopefully your car will be too. wish it was not with a friend tho. feel bad for you and RJ. Keep your chin up.
Oh my I'm glad you okay that had to been scary for sure ........................
Cool shot and as a Body Shop Owner the Insurance will total it .
Hey I’m glad to hear you guys are safe. Sorry that had to happen between you two. Hope everything turns out alright. Stay safe!
JP I was hit from behind last month my Jeep was totaled . So stressful I was also sore stressed. We got this.😃😃
Stressful indeed
@@JPVideos81
Still looking for a car to replace mine There is no Inventory and such high prices.more stressing than the dam accident. Good Luck JP hope the car can be repaired.
Footage from the top of the tunnel would also have been cool to see, but that would entail a steep climb up. The footage right beside the tracks on the ground, you can just feel the power of those trains! Nice job putting all that together!
i really liked the fog coming out that was cool. Glad you guys are good. i know most is the time when the air bag deployed they will total the car. lets just hope thats not the case.
That's a wild effect with the fog!
Sorry that happened! Just sucks that it all happened to you all when you both were just out having some fun catching trains! I’ve been there before myself. Don’t be too hard on yourselves. It could of been a lot worse. Hopefully the insurance wont total it. It’s a 2018 and it probably has a low mileage engine. It looks to be an easy fix. Just need a front bumper, hood/ headlights
A/C condenser/radiator/ cooling fans etc…Plenty of parts in junkyards or online. It’s do-able
Hoping for the best
Great video... Tunnel shots were incredible.
I'm sorry to hear about the accident. Yes it's a bad time of year for this kind of expense. Praying you heal quickly.
Sorry about the accident and thankful you guys are okay. The footage was incredible as usual; I especially loved seeing the fog pushed ahead of the train. I’ve never seen anything like that! Thank you and I hope your vehicle gets fixed in a timely manner…..🌝
Hi! First, I'm glad you and RJ weren't seriously hurt, second, I loved the different views of the trains, really nice footage. Hope you can salvage your car! Take care :) 😀
Accidents happen. Glad everyone is ok. Hopefully the car can be fixed and won't cost a ton. But seems like these days they total them out. Keep us posted on the outcome
That was my first thought after seeing thumbnail, if anyone was hurt. Glad to know everyone is ok.
Oh your poor car, we spent a lot of time in that car, drive arounds and road trips. Yes you will stay shaky for a bit.
Train shots were marvelous.
Ty Edith
I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’m so very glad your alright. It could happen to anyone so don’t have bad dreams about it. That’s why it’s call an accident instead of an on purpose. Great video of the train. Put your best foot forward as you always do. My thoughts are with you and a good outcome with your car. Hugs.
wow just wow, amazing footage, sorry about you car accident, hopefully you get lucky and your insurance will fix the car, here in ontario the insurance companies most of the time right the vehicles off that have front end damage. take care and rest up the next few days you will be sore.
Sorry about your accident. Your footage of the steam engine was awesome. Especially the ground shot. I love steam, especially the 611J. She's the first one I have known about or seen in person. Thank you for your work.
Thank you Donna
Holy cow you hit RJ!! I'm glad you guys are OK.
The train footage was awesome, especially coming out of that fog-filled tunnel! I'm just so sad that it may have cost you your car. Hopefully, it can be repaired. I can only imagine your mental state of mind at the moment and I pray you can overcome the trauma. RJ must also have a deep feeling of regret since it involved you. Certainly thankful that neither of you were badly hurt. Look forward to seeing the Blue Beauty before its retirement.
OK this comment is going in order of viewing! What an amazing video! Those trains coming through the tunnel...just wow! Especially my fav the 425! Just wow that fog! Amazing! Then the accident. I am so sorry that it happened but just like it is called, it's an accident. You can't change it but you can learn! I hope your car gets fixed but it looks pretty bad. Hope RJ's truck is ok too and that he is ok! Love you guys! Thank you for sharing! 💙
Thanks Pam
I'm glad everyone is okay. This is why it's important to remove the hitch from the receiver when not towing. It takes less than a minute to do. Saves on ankle damage too.
Omg, JP! And glad that both you weren’t hurt more. So scary. Hope your car can be salvaged.
Ty Tara
sorry to hear about the accident, I'll bet you will be sore for a day or so...I have been I two accidents in my 50 or so years driving, yeah, I'm getting up there ...lol... like you I wasn't hurt in either, but I kept reliving the accidents in my mind for a few days, I'm sure all will work out
Still on replay in my mind
I am glad you are already thanks for what you did show us
Awesome shots JP! I love the train lights in the fog. I hope that your car is repaired and we can have a celebratory Christmas lights ride-along! Take care of sore muscles with alternating heat and cold packs, ibuprofen if you can take it, and soak in a tub with epsom salts. A massage or two would be nice too! Do gentle range of motion movement to work out the stiffness, but don't over use or over stretch the muscles for a week. (ok nurse hat is off now).
Happy that it wasn't worse, sorry you had to break your no-accident streak. That sucks.
Fingers crossed 🤞
Of coarse glad everyone is ok and I feel for you on the loss of the car right now. Your car becomes your friend, your little buddy.. so I feel for you there. Hope it's repairable... but on a good note the train thur the tunnel was fantastic..
Thanks!
Sorry for you bad day. You have great footage, awesome fog and trains!
😊💙
I'm glad nobody got injured badly. Too bad about your Escape, just as you said it can be replaced if need be. Accidents do happen to the best drivers, they're just that; it was not intentional. Hope all works out for you and your vehicle (insurance isn't fun to deal with).
You did get some spectacular footage though 👍🤙
Thanks Frank
That tunnel looks really spooky with the fog and having the train coming out at the same time. Beginning of the next Steven King movie.
The fog certainly added to the ambience
JP, glad you're ok! I watched your other video before this one. Seeing those trains coming through the tunnel was cool. You're in my prayers and so is RJ.
Ty 💙
@@JPVideos81 you're welcome!
Accidents happen sometimes. I’m glad everyone is OK. Take care
I’m sorry about your car but glad no one was hurt. Take care care of yourself! You did get some good train footage. I hope no trip to the ER is in your future.
Aw Jay sweetheart please don't say you are no longer a safe driver .... Let me tell you that some evil drivers stop for no reason so the driver behind gets into trouble so they can claim on the insurance. I am so sorry this happened to you both, you are such sweet, nice guys. This happened to my husband as someone went into the back of him and he had severe whiplash and like you he was very shook up and he is also a good driver. I do hope you feel much better soon, and I wish I was there to comfort you as a friend. I was straight on this video when I saw your title and thumbnail. Sending you and R.J. positive vibes and hugs. God bless you and I am so glad you both got out of that nasty crash ok and not seriously hurt. You have God to thank for that and its great news that you can still see your favorite steam train again In December. Nice shots by the way, well done. Everything will be ok ...
I was thinking along those lines myself especially if they saw the wave on. Thinking that truck is not going to stop for sure now. That or they are one of those people who simply like to do brake checks to be a jerk.
😊😊💙💙
So sorry this has happened to you bruh hoping for fast recovery for you and the accident
Knowing RBMN, 425 may be back sooner than we think. I breifly saw her in the shed this Saturday and she seemed fairly complete. Her cylinders looked fairly new and cleaned. Seems like they were doing some other stuff since her cab was off to the side. It’s possible with the right amount of money and time she could be done by the end of next year
Glad you and RJ are ok !! Cars can be fixed easy .....people well...not so much !!! But if it is consolation those pictures at the end were really sweet !!! 👍👍 I love old steam locomotives !! And that tunnel was awesome !!! This was a great video keep us posted on the car if you can .....I think with some time and parts it can be just like it was .
Watching the trains was fantastic! Praise the Lord no one was hurt in the accident! You'll be back on the road again soon! I know it's tramatic when an accident o
Sorry to see of this happening, but you are ok is the most important, and you'll be back trackside catching more steam.
Damn this was truly a "best of times, worst of times" video, Jay, and I'm still so sorry to hear what happened to two of my friends. First and foremost, I'm relieved that neither of you are injured. But I also know car prices are through the roof and inventories are close to nil, so I very much hope you can get it repaired.
On the brighter side, your train footage was absolutely EPIC!!! I have felt the pressure of trains coming through tunnels before, but I've never seen such a stunning visual of the foggy air being pushed out like that. All great shots, and the RDCs were a great catch as well. I very much enjoyed our ride on them last year, and I'm thrilled you finally got to railfan them. Nick and I saw you as we rode by, but there was so much smoke in your video we weren't visible (we shut our window before the tunnel).
I'm glad for all of us that 425 is getting 4 more runs this year, and even gladder for you since it gives you a second chance. We know the dates, and I'll send you specifics about the schedules when I learn more. Hope we can catch up for a day of fun with The Blue Beauty before her inspection and overhaul.
I'm still learning about the 1,472 day inspection, but the basics are the FRA mandates that every 1,472 a boiler is fired up or 15 years elapse from the first firing, the boiler has to be inspected and re-tubed. No one knows for sure how long it will take, but the best estimates are 6 to 12 months, but possibly longer if they find any major problems. I'll certainly keep you in the loop as I hear more. I hope they let folks visit the steam shop while the work is being done. That might be another fun outing we could do.
Anyway, sorry again to hear about the accident. As you've said in other comments, hoping for the best but expecting the worst.
I'm trying to look at the bright side of things from the day and the situation. Definitely happy I can see #425 next month. That Definitely brightened my mood.
@@JPVideos81 glad I could help!
I truly hope all goes well. I got into an accident in 86. Following someone I didn't know to a place and discuss business. To make a long story short it resulted in a rear end accident. I really don't want to follow anyone ever but if need be I'd be very very careful. All the best
Glad to hear that nobody was hurt. That’s the most important part!
On the brighter side will you be purchasing a blue vehicle if the white one is totaled ?
Glad you are are alright your self at least Jay.
That was such great footage the train pushing this fog out reminds me of a ghost train that was excellent that sucks that happened I'm glad both of you guys are all right
Another way awesome video!!!!
That really sucks man, and being a car guy I really get the sentimental attachment to vehicles. But in the end, it's just a vehicle, as long as you guys are all right that's what truly matters. Still sucks but that's what matters.
I bought my Impala back in 2013 and that car has brought me 150,000 MI around this beautiful country, and I bought it to replace my 2001 Impala that brought me 265,000 Mi around this country. We grow attached to these things.
Also if we have a highway like that, the Merit or Wilbur cross parkway, it was initially designed in the 1930s so there stop signs instead of ramps to get up to speed because cars only did like 40 back then. Three or four days a week I see an accident at least one of those entrance ramps. When I first got my license back in the 90s I did the same thing, the car in front of me left, I looked to make sure it was clear and luckily my girlfriend at the time was in the car and yelled. I was able to hit the brakes, if not for her I would have crashed. Since that day 20 some odd years ago, I wait for the car in front of me to fully be on the highway before I even look for traffic, just because I know what is going to happen, people always hit the brakes after they start going for whatever reason.
Sorry for the long message, God bless and glad you both are safe. And like you said it's the worst time of year to do this with the holidays but hopefully you make out okay. Cars are hard to come by and use car prices are ridiculous. Maybe you get something cheap to get through Christmas and reevaluate in january?
But I honestly would not recommend that, going to the whole looking and purchasing things twice it's just more work than it's worth.
I had a few vehicles I picked up cheap, went through and resold, hell if I still had one I would just let you use the damn thing for a few months.
You said it. The memories mean more to me than the value of the car.
Car accidents are no fun. I had my first major accident a few months ago. At least a few years before that, I was in a fair ride accident that caused an annular tear in my C6/7 disc. There's no fixing it, so my shoulder just droops down and I get clicking popping if I move a certain way. Back to a few months ago, I was leaving work and was sitting at a red light. I am very cautious and wait after lights turn green in case someone tries to run the light. The light turned green, I wait 5-10 seconds. The car on the left side of me had already pulled out and turned. I start creeping out into the intersection. By this point, it had been nearly 20 seconds since the light had been green. I was halfway across the intersection and no one was coming. I assumed no one is going to try to run the light. I had just accelerated my car when suddenly I was facing the other direction after hearing a huge thump. A lady, who had her daughter and grandbaby in the car, decided to not stop and just run the light. Even after seeing a car turn and being more than 50 feet away, far enough to see and know the light is red. Her daughter even told her she was not going to make it. Lady tried anyways and didn't even brake. Just hit me head on. Absolutely destroyed mine and her car. We all went to the hospital.
I got the whole work up and was told I was fine and sent home. No pain meds or anything. I ended up in urgent care a couple days later and was told I was injured and given muscle relaxers and pain meds. I have not quite fully recovered at this point. I need to go back to the doctor and have another MRI on my spine. I am so afraid I tore my disc even more. My shoulder is drooping even farther now and it is very noticeable. It causes a lot of pain to hold my shoulder up for more than a few seconds. I get almost constant clicking and popping in my neck and shoulder, and occasional pain. To top it off, if I push/pull hard or carry something heavy, I get tingling down my arm and then numb. As soon as I stop, I get feeling back.
I am glad your accident was minor. Hopefully you make a full recovery and get your car fixed.
😮
Glad you are ok!
Among the best rail video and stills I've seen! Sorry the day ended the way it did.
Appreciate the kind words
Oh no 😱 glad you’re OK JP No it’s not fun being in a accident you will be sore for a while I hope they can fix your car collision shops can do amazing things
sorry to hear you have a accident , but your alright .when i had my first accident i didn't want to drive , but my friends and i were going out that day and they made me drive so i got over it fast .....take care ...
Really glad you are doing ok. Hopefully your car can be fix and I hope you don’t have to much trouble with your insurance. I always love your photos at the end, you get amazing shots!
Thanks Mary 💙
