  • #Trains #Railroads (11/20/23)
    With yet another weekday with an abundance of free time, I found myself by the rails with a goal of catching one train...and that failed. So, instead of sulking in defeat, I decided to stick around and see what I could find; this is Atlanta, after all. And boy am I glad I did, because the Atlanta magic was in full effect today, I caught it all for your viewing pleasure. Truly is a nice feeling when you can come back from being trackside and not remember how many trains you saw.
    Thank you ‪@northernohiorailfanningpro8899‬ and ‪@iceclimberGD‬ for being so generous to lend me some videos. Make sure to check them both out for me. Their respective videos are here:

    Also shoutout to ‪@HotspotsSoutheast‬ and ‪@csxnstrainman‬, whose uploads made me aware of the prized target...even if I missed it.
    God bless. I'll see you soon, out on the High Iron.

    The slug numbered 866 you saw is an ancient alco rebuild of an RSD12 in the 1950s. She was originally built for the nickel plate road, went to the N&W, then was rebuilt.
    She is one of less than 5 alco rebuilds still in operation on NS.
    Another fascinating part about this unit is that it worked with steam engines. The last of the NKP steam locomotives were retired in 1964, she was built in 1958.

    Exactly right, apply the trainline about 10lbs, let it admit setup, bunch up the slack, release brakes while you're bunching it up, then pull on it. Time your brakes right and it normally works. Fairly simple physics like you said. So you had the right idea

    @Ninth_notch 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    ACe and IAC/ICC differences are internal and improved Tractive effort and cut/outs for the engineer
    Names help mechanical distinguish the differences
    ACe has inverter per truck which means if a traction motor fails on a truck the whole truck has to be cut out
    IAC has an inverter per truck which means if and any Traction motor fails you only have to cut out that axel and not the whole truck ……..Individual Axel Control which ICC also has
    So that may excite gearheads

    • @LocoPro

    Nice video! It sucks that you missed 8098 but at least you got a lot of other trains while you were out, that’s what I love about Atlanta railfanning despite the bad areas and/or bad parking.
    That blue unit in Inman at 20:27 was likely a bought out CEFX unit that NS has. They bought a bunch of those CEFX units (including the CMQ ones featured in some of your previous videos) back in the late summer of last year.
    As for the comment at 38:42 I’m not sure how the physics work for that either but I have seen it in action. I got a really crazy wheel slip catch last April and the engineer on the train did just that, he pushed the slack together and was able to get going.

    • @markfisher1392
      @markfisher1392 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      All trains have slack. It's designed into the draft gear of cars for precisely this reason. It's much easier to get 1, 2, 3, 4 or more cars started rolling rather than an entire train at once. By pushing back on the consist, they're pushing the slack "in", maybe up to 4-5 inches per car. Once enough slack is pushed in, they can proceed forward and get a bit of a running start car-by-car. The trick is not taking off too fast and breaking a knuckle back in the consist. Same problem when braking -- you'll hear slack running in (a series of bangs) if the head-end slows down before the rear of the train, or when descending a grade. That's why engineers will apply power after topping a hill while simultaneously applying brakes -- to keep the train "stretched" and avoid slack run-in.
