Cab Ride on the Indiana Rail Road-Riverton to Terre Haute

Enjoy a head-end ride aboard a mile and a half long train of coal empties on the Indiana Rail Road from Netwon, Illinois to Terre Haute, Indiana with multiple cameras on-board the locomotives.
This is a two part series, and in this volume, you'll ride the Indiana portion of this train, from Riverton, Indiana (on the Wabash River border with Illinois) to Martin siding, just outside of Terre Haute.
Enjoy the busiest part of the INRD with heavy welded rail and CTC.We have several cameras on board the locomotives, and you'll enjoy the ride from a variety of angles. The audio is just as interesting. We carefully placed microphones on the exterior of the units, and you'll enjoy great natural sound as your train roars alone (note, the is no sound from the interior of the locomotive cab).

Great video. The "Midland Sub" has a lot more backstory to it. Not sure about the Peabody Coal reference, but the Midland Sub is actually parts of two different lines on different alignments. The line at "INRD" junction was originally Monon and crossed the MILW at grade, heading northeast to southwest. About a mile south of INRD junction, the Monon turned due south, away from the current alignment. In the intervening years between L&N purchasing Monon and now, the L&N extended the "Midland Sub"away from the Monon branch to, and over the IC/INRD at grade and continued southward to a now defunct mine. The portion of the Monon heading due south was abandoned. The wye that the train traverses to head north was added much later and that portion of the line much more recent (late 70's). The Monon/L&N northeast from Midland(INRD) junction is also long gone.

It is interesting that in many of these videos that when the trains switch tracks we never seen a "train meet". These videos have been really cool to watch.

Some corrections:
- CTC doesn't begin/end at the Sullivan Distant signal, it begins/ends at Sullivan.
- There is no North or South Glenn, just Glenn.
- South Finley and INRD Jct. are all one location called Midland.
- North Finley is called Latta.
- The signals and power switch at the north end of Hiawatha Yard is a location called Shanklin.
- CTC doesn't begin/end at the Shanklin Distant signal, it begins/ends at Shanklin.

36:41 This is worth listening to with the sound up. The engine chug sounds nice when it's revving up.

[@turbo134a]

I am a ho scale model railroader. One thing that on my bucket list is to ride in the cab of a freight train. If anybody knows how I could go about this any input would be greatly appreciated thanks.

[@anthonyhunt701]

[@edy21865]

Hmm why does an American railroad company’s locomotive have a Canadian locomotive horn? A 1st gen Canadian K3L no less.
