- The AC&J operates 6 miles of track in Ashtabula County Ohio running south out of Carson yard to Jefferson. The railroad has no online customers anymore but has 2 transload operations where product moves from hopper car to semi for local delivery. The 2391 is lease from Horizon Rail. The slow moves of this line make it difficult to make this operation interesting but I'm glad I finally got to document some moves on this railroad.

I love these kind of rural short lines. Fascinating power and a delightful smalltown ambience
Too bad Kansas pulled up all their tracks like these. With all the grain grown here now they could save a lot of truck traffic.
@@tommyhunter1817 cost a Fortune to put them back though and they would have to be torn up again because they went belly up in the first place
I grew up in Jefferson. The former elementary school was in sight of these tracks. I always preferred watching trains to 5th grade math!
Just catching these old engines running is fun enough! Thanks for letting us listen to those prime movers !
Hello Scott, an interesting railroad this AC&J Railroad, with two great diesel locomotives. The GE U23B is not seen that often. This branch line and the work are very nicely filmed. Thanks for showing and best regards
Well-made video capturing AC&J and their operations.
Excellent video,.
On the other side of the state the Shortlines are all EMD this also applies to Southern and Central Michigan, and Even Northern Indiana I think. Still very grateful that no shortline by me has Dash 9s.
Nice watch. Also, seeing some Pressureaide Hoppers with their Chevron decals.
The AC&J used to offer rides in their pass. cars + caboose, you could ride in the cupola if you were lucky. They also used to invite a 0-4-0 saddletank steamer for an occasional weekend!
Another excellent video!! I really enjoy your films friend, never give up
My all time favorite locomotives the U boats!
Thank you for sharing.👍
Fun stuff, I enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Excellent captures. Good work. Greetings from Poland. 👍
Scott, thank you for the introduction to a new railroad (at least for me). Awesome video too.
Hello Scott, how therapeutic was that !
I have never seen a wide brimmed High Visibility hat (@16.55) before - I like 👍
great video sir 😍😍❤❤
Carson Yard interchange, in Ashtabula, OH.😊
Thanks for sharing 🙌
Amazing footage. As always.
Cool place and Cool Video!!!!!))))
I like this video, special the drone shots.
He's been providing excellent drone shots for a long time.
Enjoyed the video
One of the best videos you've ever shot Ty Paul EEEE
all they need is a d.p. u unit on these super fast freight trains lol
Without knowing anything about this operation, it kind of looks like they’re one bad month or severe weather event away from going away…but hope not.
That's not true they have been around since the 80's and have handled all kinds of freight. It's an very interesting rr to check out.
the closest thing to modern FP&E
Awesome footage…. Do you know if the U-boat was an old Conrail? What kind if drone do you use?
The number of the U23 would fit in the Conrail numbering, for those locos--- might be!
Scott,
I really enjoyed this video! Your scene composition is really good. Not just trains passing by. Question about your audio. I really like the fact that you don't play music in your videos. You record the sound of the trains. Is your microphone in the drone or on the ground? Other videographers told me they play the music because you can't hear the trains if they record them from the drone. Is that true?
Bummer you left us in suspense. Where were those cars going?.
These guys have any type of pattern for when they operate?
I noticed the light stand on the engineer's side of the U25B,is that unit a RCU (remote control unit)??
That's a U23B.
