I love trains and live near tracks . A long train rumbling by at night lulls me to sleep , mind you I live about a half mile from the train tracks .

My goodness what a beautiful day!

[@harveypeters9015]

With the local freight getting longer and longer, it will probably spur more crazy drivers in Iron Mountain to violate the crossings.

[@garymessina1609]

Great view and maybe it's in for maintenance great video thanks Jason

[@MarvUSA]

That's a lot of train for one engine. Must be fairly lvl ground.

[@larrybaldridge4078]

We have got to find out what happened to 1221, thanks Jason

[@timothystrauss3838]

Are you going to get a new scanner? I'm sure they're expensive.

[@nigelterry9299]

Looks like 1221 has been broken already!

[@ThomasNorton-tl7ji]

What a bummer no SD9 again, need to get the word out and see if anyone has seen or knows where it’s sitting, thanks for the video!

[@londonwhaley8690]

I enjoyed that video👍👍

[@erie910]

I feel for the crew having to run long hood forward.

[@scottfrazelle2579]

The 1221 has an air leak and needs to be serviced before it can be out on the rail.

[@jeanavis1489]

Thanks for sharing!!!

[@lloydrobinson7081]

cool clip, a long train this time!

[@michelemcguire8995]

Whats the cars liaded down with?

[@jamessimms415]

Smart siding from the LP plant

[@alfredbaroni2133]

The engineers must be Vets or have been sufficiently trained so they don't need 1221 to go up the grade 😂😂😂😂

[@crlaw75]

That was a good train.
Nice to see the shortline railroads in operation, as it saves the track from being torn up.

[@paulbergen9114]

A good size train to close out the week this time it's an exact 10 DJ Joseph cars to go to Alter on the way back 2 empty glue tankers and better than average with 21 Center beams headed for Green Bay that hopefully gets out of there on the weekend. Looking forward to 1221 rolling off the miles amongst the Autumn Leaves

[@eugenekleis4235]

Hello how are you doing tonight

[@ramtuff2007]

good train video

[@briandonovan9560]

Wouldn't it be cool if you could get to know the yard guys at E& LS? Get the inside on what's going on.

[@williamoleschoolarendt7016]

Hey Jason happy Friday bro!

[@richardmead9225]

Are there a ton of cars still stored at Groveland Mine ?

[@crdom12the]

Love the guy running out of the building to get a pic of the train.

[@erie910]

That's what I did at my client's office in Jacksonville, IL on an NS line.

[@GregMcLeod-ic6xo]

Is that for certain that 1221 is down with an air leak?

[@scottfrazelle2579]

Yes I work at e.l.s.

[@lowellvillerailfanproductions]

My guess is that it's in the repair shop for an inspection. Also doesn't this railroad have two other SD40 why don't they just use those

[@Joe-d7m6k]

They are pretty tight on motive power right now.

[@lowellvillerailfanproductions]

@@Joe-d7m6k sounds like the Youngstown South Eastern railroad they only got two of their locomotive operational and they have two others that they are currently leasing

[@dneilson2412]

Headlight not on. Not good
