Tri-Rail *IS* the perfect railroad. Those horns say it all. I was down in South Florida just last month, and all that played on my mind was just "Tri-Rail" on a broken record, and I filmed every train I could (although it didn't come out like this because I uploaded the clips individually and was tripodless), but it looks like neither of us ever managed to catch GP49H-3 #817 and it's amazing bell in action, but don't worry, it'll be there for me when I come back there next year, along with the rebuilt F40PHs! Also, adding the Tri-Rail horn to your intro screen was a brilliant idea, and you should keep it!
You were in my neck of the woods when u filmed in Hialeah, when the F40s come back, search up Iris and you'll see atleast 20 trains. But that spot sees 45 no doubt.
Those awesome K5LA's put modern music to shame! The GP49H-3 units look and sound boss! Can't wait for the F40PH to come back into service after their rebuilt.
Absolutely amazing video, Mike! You covered so much ground in this video! I love the variety of locations, especially the amazing footage from along the canal! Those geeps in the classic white scheme looked so sharp!
Amazing action CoasterFan! I see Tri-Rail has a lot of bombardier bi-level cars and a few Hyundai rotem cab cars similar to the ones over at MetroLink.
Mr. Mike Armstrong, I Hope You Have a Good Labor Day By Monday, on Monday September 2, 2019, and I'll Be Seeing You Later. and Thank You For That New TH-cam Video of Yours, that was so Amazing. :-D
My Dad and I rode Tri Rail from Boco Raton to Mangonia Park and Return to Boco Raton back on June of 2019. I hope My Dad and I will ride Tri Rail again soon, which is from Boco Raton to Miami.
I see a mix of trains hauled by single EMD/Mid-America GP49H-3 locomotives, trains hauled by single Brookville BL36PH locomotives, and trains hauled by dual Brookville BL36PH locomotives, even though the latter still have only 3 or 4 coaches, and sometimes even include a cab car (even if it is a Hyundai-Rotem cab car with the cab end shaped to be really on the end). I did not see any of the Colorado Railcar DMUs that the Wikipedia articles says that they have; this article also reports that all of their F40PH-2C and F40PH locomotives are out for rebuild at Progress Rail, but should be back later this year.
@@TracksideIsaiah Also, the horns on both commuter rails are very different. The horns on SunRail don’t sound the best, and the horns on Tri-Rail sound really nice.
The Rotems failed an inspection and were prohibited from leading for about a 3 month period, during which all this footage was shot. You may know of a time when Metrolink had to lease BNSF AC4400CWs to block their Rotem Cabs after the Oxnard Crash. This was basically that.
Yes. Miami international airport station is the last station and there are end bumpers. Mangonia park is also a terminus but is a regular looking station. The train engineer is required to go into reverse wait for a clear signal ready to go along the switchover then be on its way

same here
I just wished GRTA Xpress ran commuter rail through metro ATL. Great system, though, is metro Miami's...
Make that 5 years now
Yeah same😮😮
I really liked the clips with the GP's, good to see them still in use!

Fun fact those geeps were Ex NS high hoods GP49s. One of my favorite engines on the roster next to the F40s
Tri-Rail has very nice selection of rolling stock.
Their bombardier cab-cars have a really sweet K5LA also amazing like always Mike!
You finally got to see 507 with all that ear candy lol! Awesome video bro!
Thanks man! 507 is excellent!
507 is definitely the best K5LA on Tri-Rail, and just possibly the best K5LA of all time.
@@superbaddy4That's a fact 🫵💯 No other bombardier units K5LA compares to 507s

Equipment used on Tri-Rail:
EMD F40PHL-2 (all rebuilt into MP2000NGs for Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad)
EMD F40PH (ex-Amtrak, rebuilt into F40PH-3Cs)
EMD F40PH-2C (all rebuilt into F40PH-3Cs)

I wonder when the F40s are returning, can’t wait to see them in service again
Awesome K5LA cab car horns!

Those tri rail train horn are super Loud!!!!!!!!!!
Great Video:) The Tri-Rail's Cabcars have the best K5LA's ever.
Wish The Coaster Cabcars will sound like The Tri Rail Cabcars.
I know right:)
I like the horn sounds sweet
They do have some great horns!
So how was it in Florida?
I lived there my whole life :D
Great video
Thank you!
As a Floridian native these train horns are pretty loud.
They are very loud!
@@CoasterFan2105 Especially under bridges
Probably the loudest K5LA's I ever heard in my life

Amazing Vid as Always Mike or and a quick question is the Amtrak City of new Orleans a Long distance Train cause I'm just wondering?
Thank you! Yes, it is. I'll be talking about it in the Eastern Long Distance episode of Train Talk.
Good I'm happy it is and I'm happy cause i live a Hour Away from the nearest Station which is in Fulton Kentucky
Awesome video
Thank you!
CoasterFan2105 Anytime
I rode the Tri Rail train in Florida.
Awesome! How was it?
I loved the cab cars horn in 1:39
505
Well, that probably not an easy question, but what’s the best place/city to visit in America?
None
Depends on what you're looking for. Do you mean to see trains? And if so, what types of trains?
CoasterFan2105 Well I don’t make an trans-atlantic flight just to see trains. (still though I want to see some bist freight trains).
Basically I’m just looking for a normal vacation
Nice catches Mike
Thank you!
Great video!
Thanks!
when the cab cars (bombardier ones) got better horns than locomotives
awsome! I would love to go on tri rail from airport to Delray Beach
nice catch
Thank you!
Coaster trains is awesome
It’s totally normal I’m here 5 hours late, because I gotta go to school 10/10 content btw
Thanks for watching!

hay mike your vids are awesome and cool I wish I can meet you bye have a great day!
That one dislike is probably Millenniumforce aka Alan John Smith
lol yeah probably
OH HELL NO!
AMAZING
Thanks!
1:33 remember this area, but im in texas now
At 8:20 is how I wanted to see the crossing Gate
Never knew they operated the gp38? (Idk how to tell the difference between gp38 and 40) also why is there another engine in front of the new cab cars?
8:40-where was that filmed from?
It was filmed from a parking lot in Miami
The second crossing after opa-locka station
How come there are 3 cars in Tri-Rail's consist?🤔
Not a big enough demand
That's probably what they figure they need to handle the number of passengers.
They purposely make it feel crowded on this train to make you take other means of transit
Length of platform
It would be cool if you could film the Saint Croix valley railroad in MN they run on former NP tracks and it goes from north branch MN to hinkley MN
Mike, you dont catch a tri rail f40ph?
Hey Mike, why do Brightline and Tri-Rail run on the same route?
ThePurpleVanpier they don’t. Two different set of rails about a mile apart from each other.
sweet one Mike!
Are you at Oceanside while making this video?
Oceanside is in California not florida
Right now, I am up in Washington. Should be back in SoCal next week.
@@CoasterFan2105 ok
Nice! Also what's your favorite Tri-Rail Locomotive?
I really like the F40s!
What camera do you record in 4K?
SunRail: So....Are you my clone?
TriRail: Yes.
Well not really lol, Tri rail existed before Sunrail did, but I see where your getting at 😆
@@TracksideIsaiah Also, the horns on both commuter rails are very different. The horns on SunRail don’t sound the best, and the horns on Tri-Rail sound really nice.
I have to say my favs are the gp49s
Why doesn't Try-Rail use the cab cars? All the trains which have the cab cars have an engine on both ends of the train.
The Rotems failed an inspection and were prohibited from leading for about a 3 month period, during which all this footage was shot. You may know of a time when Metrolink had to lease BNSF AC4400CWs to block their Rotem Cabs after the Oxnard Crash. This was basically that.
The Commuter and Long Distance Trains Might Have To Be Discontinued When Hurricane Dorian Makes Landfall in Florida. Dont You Guys Think?
There's a good chance of it.
Nice Mike aka coasterfan2105

Thank you!
I am thinking Florida with all the palm trees on the cars
Amazing

Where are the terminal ends for Trirail? Are there stoppers for the trains?
Yes. Miami international airport station is the last station and there are end bumpers. Mangonia park is also a terminus but is a regular looking station. The train engineer is required to go into reverse wait for a clear signal ready to go along the switchover then be on its way
Thats where they go across those tracks at night.
Is it ok if I used your name and instead of Coaster I put Amtrak?
What is the first spot located
Can you record trains in montreal Canada please?
I want to as soon as I get a chance!
Great!!! Because if you like F59phi’s or F59ph’s we have them here!!! We also have the comet cars!

Gotta love K5LA’s
They're pretty great!
@@PG13hockeyman Yes, both the K5LAs in that video are mine.
CoasterFan2105 could you like post a video of you just blasting the horns?
@@PG13hockeyman I might be doing that eventually. Take a look at my Instagram page because I post some horn videos there.
Ah yes. I always see those trains come bye at my house.
i am pretty sure i was on one of the tri rails in this video
es gibt wirklich interessante Verkehrsgesellschaften in den USA.
it looks like go trains, (some i think)
you should make a brightline vid they are EXTREMELY fast
He already has a Brightline video! Its great!
I am disappointed in my Metrolink. Tri-Rail does it better, they have on livery and separate their two car types.
How come they weren’t using there Rotem Cabcars?
Probably not working right. The same thing happened to Metrolink as well.
The Rotems need some repair work to the pilot before they can lead again.
