@@woody94fun you never know what is in the vapor trails that some government is spraying on the citizens of the US? I know Uncle Sam works with some civilian carriers to spray. Someday, we’ll be told the truth.
i was once railfanning when an actual funnel came down. Denver, 6-14-2009, around 3:00 PM. The train was the Amtrak 'A Christmas Carol' special. I managed 3 photos as my Father drove us to cover.
1999, a tornado was on the ground in the Midwest. An EMS crew transmitted: "Dispatch, be advised we have lost power at the station and hear what sounds like a train... Suspect tornadic activity in the area" Later the crew said that right after they said that, a nearby railroad crossing signal started gong off and they felt bad thinking "Please, oh please let it be a tornado..." It was indeed an F4 Tornado that traveled over 24 miles on the ground.
Saw a couple of those in (of all places) California in death valley. hail and lightening shooting out of it. sideways funnel clouds. way more detailed when you see it in person
I seen something like this in ireland when i was young, we were driving up a mountain called Salt Hill, i looked out over the coast and there it was, much thinner than this one, and spinning much faster (very short lived however) ❤
Would be greato capture both! Video the tornado. You can do train any time. No funnel/tornado there. Nice thathey have reflective white stripes on the back of the crossbucks. Rich red LED mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* .
As long as I know few hundred meters before the crossroad there are two consecutive rails connected by insulator. There’s an electrical circuit connected to each of both rails but because of the insulator the circuit is open. When the first steel wheel of the locomotive passe the gap between the rails it acts as an electrical switch, circuit closes and red light signal turns on.
Was under one, huge 2-3 miles long, when it got overhead the wind blew at least 60. It was the kind of micro downburst that crashes airplanes. Last year, cell phone at home 80+ early morning, felt a cold breeze and watched a black cloud approach while I was getting gas. Thinking cold air over this very hot mall strip. 30 sec later looking up into a funnel cloud forming. A minute later it was a small tornado and another joined it from the side over center of Zebulon NC. Another minute and gone. 3X something said get back for your phone that morning.
if that were a tornado, you should move away from the train. If the tornado picked it up, you would be in peril. It would be too little too much. I'm glad you lived another day.
With other tornadoes coming through upstate New York recently all I can think is everyone always says it sounds like a freight train… we have a freight train every 10 minutes here so I’m here in a train thinking there’s a tornado and it’s freaking me out
@@jasonasselin It's not a wall cloud either. It's a shelf cloud. A wall cloud is a lowered part of a cloud with no rain and horizontal rotation. I would be careful with that green coloration though.
When I was growing up we moved into a house that was next to some train tracks. We heard that tornadoes sounded like trains. A train came through the first morning we were there and my mom jumped up screaming tornado....!! She stepped all over my dad's chest trying to get to me and my sister. 😂😂😂
Definitely legit. So many times people say look at the swirl and there’s nothing. It’s spinning the right direction too. What is the date/time/town? I want to check the radar. I work for a large weather company and do some storm chasing on the side. Cool stuff!
@@jasonasselin nice squall line, looks like you were toward the northern end of it (that segment, there was more approaching Marquette), can definitely see some moments of rotation in there. Good catch!
I am a storm spotter/chaser in Ohio, and whenever I see videos like this with trains and weather, it makes me. Think of the 1974 Xenia, Ohio tornado, since a Penn Central train was going through at the time, the crossing had just flashers, and the engineer laid on the horn for a warning
@@dknowles60 how do you know ? I was in Xenia for the 50th. They even said it was Penn Central. You just want to be proven right or something. It's juvenile to argue about something that happened 50 years ago. It doesn't bring any of the victims back to life, and they should know what train it was, since they had to deal with the aftermath of the tornado
@@dancline2143 i knew the crew. i just like the right facts, it was own by Penn central Ex PRR, but it was a DT&I train the track is gone to day, it is a nice trail to day, do i have the power of God? no will it bring the People back to Life? no
@@dknowles60 I like the right facts too, but I get so damn tired of people arguing things for months at a time. I suppose that you argue the death figures too, since there are different ones given all of the time. While I agree about the right information, I don't know why the name of a yrain bothers people 50 years later, considering that the tracks aren't even there anymore. If you want the correct name known, you better start telling everyone in Xenia, since they all say PC. Again, it doesn't do anything to bring back the dead, and probably most of the crew are now gone
@@dancline2143 Cant handle state of Ohio Records, it Was a DT&I train. the DT&I paid for the Derailment Clean . Source IRS records and State of Ohio records Owner ship Records Ex Prr rr Penn central rr , ever hear of , trackage rights., the Train came from Springfield oh or that is where it Change Crews, the train came from Flat rock Mi, i know more about rail roads then you will ever know
The trees were totally still for most of the video as the train approached the crossing. Then the topmost branches waved briefly, then stopped. Quite a mild tornado.
US train drivers seem to have no strategy in sounding the horn. Is there any point in sounding the horn when you are 2 feet away from the crossing point ?

Bull
I’m a skywarn spotter aswell in southeast Michigan
😑
@@ironcladvee6229 I have a naked picture of Jill
Oh boy, an actual train, with rain.
But is it on the plain?😊
@@ohiosharon8945 are you insane? 😂
@@RDUaviaton0516I heard he was lifted with a crane.
@@atsf47legit the cars better stay in their lane
And that damn god Oh again.
Don't want to burst your bubble. It's a Shelf Cloud with scud. Not a wall cloud no funnel. I'm a NOAA storm spotter.
Can you spot the shit stains on the back of my underwear?
Tornados can occur on the edge of squall lines.
Those ones are usually very brief and weak
That's what I thought too.
Is it possible that the metal fragments sprayed int the clouds by the Government is following the static energy made from the train?
@@woody94fun you never know what is in the vapor trails that some government is spraying on the citizens of the US? I know Uncle Sam works with some civilian carriers to spray. Someday, we’ll be told the truth.
Wow, they weren’t kidding. Tornadoes do sound like trains. You could literally hear it!
Even the clickety clack sounded so train like.
@@alanmcentee9457 and that ding ding ding really had me thinking of trains too.
Yup, definitely a tornado with a warning horn to
Now I know why the sky turns green- it's the train headlights in the clouds!
😂😂
Hey, guy! That is a beautiful video of a train in the north woods and Mother Nature showing off! A great catch!
I so agree!
U0😂@@Candie-ub2yv
Don't you just love rails filled with vegetation?!?!
I bet people that are not from the area probably assume it's an abandoned track.
Oh yeah, that’s normal
That's a sick sounding horn !
Sick as a drowned dog!
AND, with funky-azz blinky headlights...
WTF? Which dum-bass government agency mandated that chit?
It's a three chime Nathan with only two chimes working.
That's why.
No its a 5 chime nathan with 1 bell not sounding correctly @FoxWood2222
Looks like abandoned track with the weeds growing between the rails!!!
No RR crossing gates.
We have a crossing in my neck of the woods without gates or lights. Stop, look and listen.
Oh my, there called clouds. And it's a train!😅 Two rare things never seen before. Seriously!!
Was I the only one waiting for several cars to drive through, ignoring the lights?
A gnarly sight to behold. Good catches.
Watching a train in tornado weather?.......AWESOME!!!
I miss hearing/ seeing trains . Thanks for the video 🎉
Thank you too!
So good to see and hear this!
Is it a train or a tornado. It's a trainado.
After movies like Sharkado, don't give Hollywood any ideas. 🙄🤣
@@theatreguy1850 😂😂😂
Jason said you were definitely in the right place at the right time. I’m glad you’re OK.
That EMD thump is as impressive as the tornado
Worked at G.M. diesel until they sold out. It was a great job.
Hi 🤗😘 I love train sounds tight in my ears 😮
Me: Thinking y is he out there?? 🤨and my ass would be in the HOUSE!! 😨🫣
Him: HOLY CRAP!!!! It's spiraling right over my HEAD MAN!! 😛🤪
I love trains, and rain.
That train horn is quiet. I’m used to hearing them 5x louder.

A train! How exciting!🥱
The new film from Michael Bay... TRAINADO!
Really hard to believe that you have like almost 7000 views for this little storm
330,000 views.
Great capture! In both regards.
Oh wow! Clouds! Whooopie!! 🎉
Hm...the Long Black Train?
Wow❤
This is amazing 🤩
Good job
I would be laughing my head off if the lights/alarm came on, then a tornado funnel - Following the tracks perfectly - Passed by... 😁
Saw a couple of those in (of all places) California in death valley. hail and lightening shooting out of it. sideways funnel clouds. way more detailed when you see it in person
is no one going to acknowledge the fact that that was an emd demo unit??
Scary, bit cool. Broken pole crossing.
Glad you're safe
A train and a tornado at the same time, your gonna make Tornado the Train jealous bruh 😂
There is a train track here in Alabama looks identical to this one
I seen something like this in ireland when i was young, we were driving up a mountain called Salt Hill, i looked out over the coast and there it was, much thinner than this one, and spinning much faster (very short lived however) ❤
Nice dude, down here near Stevens point we’ve been getting tons of storms and clouds, kind of annoying actually, but not something like this
There's an old saying in Cumberland Wisconsin. Holy !! Shit Balls
They say that in Pennsylvania end New York state, as well.
Wow - braving tornados to bring us some great videos... you are Legend my friend
I love the sound of train horns
Clouds! Oh my 😮
Long long short long. ...ahhh that takes me back.
Hahaha!Thats al i can say about this..Ridiculous!They call that a train!hahaha!
I knew that train was slow because of the bend in the tracks ✌️☘️
Looks like both...train bringing it to you! 😮
I used to hate walking up to the switch in this weather on BNRR
Nice shot man,,thanks 😅
Not only do tornados sound like trains, they look like them too!
It's a good thing tornadoes have warning lights and horns. That will save a lot of lives!
Would be greato capture both! Video the tornado. You can do train any time. No funnel/tornado there.
Nice thathey have reflective white stripes on the back of the crossbucks. Rich red LED mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* .
That's a simple shelf cloud. It's just cool air pushing warm moist air up like a plow where it rises and condenses.
This is not the first video I have seen you shoot at this crossing. Why are they allowing the greenery around the tracks to flourish?

Fantastic vid, totally great catch, train and tornado. Best Wishes to ya.
I saw one of those spiraling over my house 2 yrs ago. Freaky!!
Last time I saw a storm like that, a house landed on a witch
what did tornado sound like before trains?
Did you see the face in the clouds..amazing
That looks terrifying
🎶 I heard the train is coming
It's coming around the track 🎶
I will be spending a week in Iron Mountain the week of the 4th of July. Maybe I will see you at a railroad crossing
That was incredible!
Pray the wind doesn't blow the train off track
I've been working at McDonald's for 15 yrs as a burger flipper technician and I can certainly tell you that ain't no funnel cloud
Weird.. I never said anything about a funnel cloud. McDonald's huh? It shows..

@@HaydenD1776 Read the title, says it all. Why are you trying to correct me?
@jasonasselin I don't know, man. I really thought you were serious. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I like at the end when we discover it was indeed a train.
The cars were so scared, they were shaking from fear.
Grab Toto and Auntie Em and head for the storm cellar!
nothing to worry about, just a shelf type cloud on edge of a storm/building storm.
I bet the engineers cringe every time they sound that horn. Ouch.
Holly smokes, somebody call Bat man lol
The most concerning thing in this is the sound that horn is making. It needs to be fixed or put out of its misery.
"Is it a train or a tornado?" "YES!!!!!"
I live 2 blocks from a train track and as soon as i saw this train i heard 1 on my tracks LOL
When I was growing up we moved into a house that was next to some train tracks. We heard that tornadoes sounded like trains. A train came through the first morning we were there and my mom jumped up screaming tornado....!! She stepped all over my dad's chest trying to get to me and my sister. 😂😂😂
Oh no, its a dark cloud!
What did tornadoes sound like b4 there were freight trains ?

6/17/24, approx 11am on County O about 2 miles south of County N in Marinette County, WI. Northern most part of the county near Michigan.
@@jasonasselin nice squall line, looks like you were toward the northern end of it (that segment, there was more approaching Marquette), can definitely see some moments of rotation in there. Good catch!
Tornado was a steam train built in GB
Yeah, I think that's called a cloud.
Your crossings are so dangerous...do you not have barriers?...
I think it's cool Jason, you catch some awesome stuff. The haters in the comments probably eat crayons
Tornado is the first time I was thinking
Hit the ground man....now run!! 😅

No gates at a train crossing?
Wow! Wow! A cloud in the sky! Save us!
Awesome video 🎉
The trees were totally still for most of the video as the train approached the crossing. Then the topmost branches waved briefly, then stopped. Quite a mild tornado.
LOL. They walk among us
knew this was Wisconsin before I looked at the title lol
When it first showed its light from far, it looked like a fireball on a moving object (more like the train on fire) 😂😂 !!
This guy is easily pleased!!!
US train drivers seem to have no strategy in sounding the horn.
Is there any point in sounding the horn when you are 2 feet away from the crossing point ?
As long as it's not a trainado. SyFy's been putting enough stuff in tornados lately.
I’m impressed. A train and some rain clouds. Um, wow.
