I remember preparing our vehicles in Vicenza, Italy ( Railhead ) for a NATO exercise to eastern turkish armenia, 6/1983 my unit was CSC 1/ 509th Inf. ( Airborne ) redeye platoon which later became Stinger missle platoon 💥👍🇺🇸@@ohiosteamandsteel
And somehow stupid and fragile at the same time. Lot of examples when tanks are sliding of the flatbed railcar, totally undone for a while.... Looks so stupid 😂, another great way to molest the warmachine is destroying the railway at multiple points and destroy the locomotive. Well, of course this strategy will work when a wartrain enters enemy territory, wich happened a lot in WW2 for example. But in todays Ukraine conflict, the Russians where so dumb to approach Kyiv with a massive colonne........ How stupid can you be? Sitting ducks, waiting to receive havoc, and the rest is already history. The best weapons of war are 2 things and 2 things only: nuclair strike and normal infantery men.
Wow! Excellent catching a military train, army tanks, and 4 locomotives in La Grange, Kentucky, @JawTooth, Brian, thank you very much and happy late-Valentine's day.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to watch this train with military tanks on it again, Jaw Tooth! I enjoyed watching this train street running in LaGrange, Kentucky again.
Was it me, or did that train speed up quite a bit while street running? Don't see a lot of military stuff on the rails around here, even though the Providence & Worcester main line runs through the US Naval Submarine Base in Groton, but occasionally submarine builder Electric Boat, also in Groton, will get a nuclear reactor delivered by rail! But, due to tunnel clearances, it has to come down the other side of the river on the old Central Vermont RR, which also runs through Norwich here in eastern CT. The tunnel I mentioned is in Lisbon, just north of Norwich, it was the first railroad tunnel in commercial use in the USA. If you want to read a good railroad history book, I suggest you read "History of the Norwich & Worcester Railroad" by Elmer Farnham, lots of good info, and pictures too!
I really enjoy seeing the tracks in LaGrange Kentucky running through the main street of town and you never know what will happen here in LaGrange but the train with the military tanks was awesome to see and LaGrange is one of my favorite places for street running trains and always glad to see Norfie and the Train Dogs entertaining you they are also really awesome to see as well as the great slide shows Thanks again Jaw Tooth for the great trains here Thank You.🤠🇺🇲🇺🇲 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲🇺🇲💨💨
Wow, the cover shot for the video is extremely powerful. LOOK at all of those tanks on an average street in America. This is what war would look like in America.
Man that was awesome JT, street running is always a treat and the cherry on top was those M1A1 tanks🇺🇸. Them twin GEVO DPU’s sounded mean💪🏼. Another excellent video JT, truly appreciate your commitment bringing us these videos 👍🏼🇺🇸😎
It amazes me the way they can move whole buildings like that, often with no damage. I believe if I was a business owner on the train street I'd constantly wonder when a derailed train would come through my building.😮😮😮
You know when you step out of the store and see a train coming down, you aint getting anywhere on time! Is there some sort of schedule for freight trains coming through here? Great capture and awesome to see the tanks!
Saw a young man with a "The Rock" hoodie. The Rock being the new Rock Island railroad in Mississippi. Hoodie was bankruptcy blue... Back in the day, having a business on a street like this would have been convenient. I notice that LaGrange has a quiet zone set up.
My goodness! What a long, incredible train. I couldn't count cars the due to either my phone or the video jerking. I wish I could have because it was very, very long. It had just about everything on it probably the best I've ever seen!!!!! Fabulous catch JT!!!😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks JT for that impressive video. Suberb quality recording as always. In my youth some 65 years ago I was a train spotter making a note of the engines numbers spotted here in the UK and marking them off in the ABC of British Railways rolling stock. We were a unique bunch referred to as "Anoraks". Such a lovely endearment. Can't beat the old day of steam locos. 😀
Hey jaw tooth it's fun watching street running trains . They emptied the yard for that one. Very loooooong train. Glad to see animals are doing great. Have a great railroad day 🚂🙋♀️
Those were 16 new M1A2 SEP tanks being shipped to a unit who will probably be undergoing new equipment fielding in the future. The rest of the train was just civilian wagons.
On each visit to this locale, I imagine myself tagging-along and taping out of one of the , second story windows...and maybe tossing a water balloon or two. Have you considered doing so ?
I would like to film from the roof of one of those buildings. I met someone who lives on the second floor in one of those apartments and he likes watching the trains. I was hoping he would ask if I wanted to film from there. We rented a house for the weekend there facing the tracks on the first floor 🎉
Hi JT: Whoah, army vehicles transported on a train? Awesome! I've never seen that done before. Makes perfect sense!.. Thanks for sharing your efforts. Have a nice day! Respectfully, David. 👍👍
Would love to hear one of these street trains go to town with the horn blasting like they normally would on crossings. That would be well loud between the buildings.
Great blast from the past JT. Certainly miss freights through here. Locals can get boring at times. Unless I'm out by ethanol plant watching their little switcher...
I was wondering when we would see the dpu units. Obviously this is another one of those clear the yard trains. At some point in another yard they're going to separate it and then continue on to their destination.
These tanks were destined for Kuwait - M1A2K Abrams. You can tell by the large box on the rear of the turret which is an auxiliary power unit / cooling system as of the date of the video they were the only operator with this set up.
Good Morning Jaw Tooth hope you are doing well and had a great valentines day with the Mrs great shots of the CSX military train Just about every type of car on that train cept for the kitchen sink lol take care thank you
We just got back from Florida. It was in the 70sF down there and now that I am home its in the 20s and we got a few inches of snow right after I got home lol
@@JawTooth welcome back and did you get any FEC trains i have had the opportunity to see some of theirs it is amazing to watch they have planned the loco's matched with the huge tanker in between they must be able to go long distances without refueling take care have a great day
@@drujohns1394 Yes, I got a really nice FEC mixed freight with the tender in the middle of the locomotives. I filmed it and before any cars could get over the crossing a Brightline train came flying past
@@drujohns1394 Yes, I bought a few about 5 years or so ago. I only ran them once and they are the GP49s that CCET used to have. I have them in boxes, the next time I film CCET I might put them in the video if I remember
Thank you Blessings. I am a United States Army Veteran. The Railroad has always did their part to move Troops and equipment.

Something about military trains that feels powerful, the potential of all that weaponry firing on the move
Thanks for watching 😊
Those are all going to Ukraine🤣🤣

Thanks for watching 😊
Wow! Best catch of February! Congratulations Brian!🤝🙂
Thanks 😊
@@JawTooth Hi Brian 👋🙂 You're welcome 👍🙂
God Bless our Brothers in arms across the pond" From Worcester UK.💯👌🙏💪
Coming from England, the length and weight of that is insane. As is the way it runs through the high street. Absolutely awesome.
The amount of weight that train was carrying, omg. Insane.
A gigantic pile of freight 😊
That army train was a beast! I'm always amazed that these roll right through the middle of the Main St USA. People must just be used to it!
it always gets me how this man is always in the right place at the right time.
Tanks A Lot!
I never seen a train that long thank you for this
I have more like this. check out my play lists
1st Train 01:20 - 2 Engines - 2 DPU's 06:20 - 198 Cars (16 M1A2 Abrams Main Battle Tanks)
Wow, that was a lot of cars!😊
JT lots of wheel flats in that consist I can hear them all the way over here😂😂🇯🇲🇬🇧
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to watch this train with military tanks on it again, Jaw Tooth! I enjoyed watching this train street running in LaGrange, Kentucky again.
Thanks Thomas!
Wow, I love that town with trains running right between the streets!
Roll on you glorious tank
Thanks for watching 😊🎉
Thanks JT for being the train magnet
And saw some old roads go by, SOO and C&NW. Yes that train had about everything. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Thanks for watching!

Amazing Pennsylvania - Phil; military trains run all the time across America.
I remember that train! Super cool. Great seeing it today and the animals. Thanks JT. ❤
Thanks for watching!
Great blast from the past 😊
Indeed!
One of the most interesting mixed consists I've seen on here. Nice to see that variety, with so many container trains on the rails these days.
Many thanks!
Nice blast from the not too distant past! Now that was a train! Great video JT!
🚂🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💯👍🇺🇸
Thanks 👍
Some REAL heavy metal being moved! Great video!!!!
Yes! Thank you!

Thanks 👍
Awesome oldie but goodie great video thanks Brian
Glad you enjoyed it
What a fabulous train with those tracked military vehicles!!! 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching 😊
Ooh, shiny! No unit markings and no wear on the track pads on those M1s. That’ll soon change. Tanks for sharing.
Tank up trooper ! 🍻🍺🪂🪖🇺🇸
Just about everything on that on JT. In UK we called that mixed freight. 👍👍👍👍
Very cool! We call it that and also a manifest
Thank you for the video this day. Haven’t seen one for a while. Thanks Brian! 🙂👍🇺🇸
Glad you enjoyed it
You really don't see any DoD transports around my neck of the woods. So for me, that really was something different. It looked like new equipment.
Thanks for watching 😊
Wow that is a great catch of those army tanks was definitely a great day for you love it awesome video JT
Thanks for watching 😊
this channel is the best of the best
Thanks 😊🎉
The internet says an Abrams tank weighs 60 tons, so that 120 tons per car! I don't know if that's a lot but it sounds like a lot?
Quite the train indeed, thanks JT!
Thanks for watching 😊
It was good to see the pets from back in the day. Time doesn't stop for anything. 😮
Thanks for watching 😊 we miss Sophie 😢
As a fellow pet lover, understand completely. I wasn't sure if I should say anything but memories are what we cherish to get us through. 😭
Very awesome video with miltary train there. Just love watching those trains.
Thank you very much!
Army tanks, bunch of centerbeam cars!!! Wow😊
Thanks for watching 😊
That was great, well done Bryan!!!! best wishes from the UK.

This must be the last tanks we have left. Maybe the government will not give them all away. Great video!
Very Nice video once again from our man on the move ! 🙂 Woof woof and meow meow to Norfie and Chessie ! 😺🐶
Thanks again!
Wow! Very cool video. Hope to see you back in my home town of Columbus, OH again. Always enjoy your videos...
I hope so too!
Love the DoD trains!! Thank you!!
Thanks for watching 😊
Watching twice. Awesome video. Thanks Mr JT. We enjoy this one. ❤😊 Very interesting.😊
Awesome! Thank you!

Thank you! 😊
It was fun loading M1A1 tanks on a train. The tracks hang off each side a little, and you just drive across the gaps between cars.
Man that was awesome JT, street running is always a treat and the cherry on top was those M1A1 tanks🇺🇸. Them twin GEVO DPU’s sounded mean💪🏼. Another excellent video JT, truly appreciate your commitment bringing us these videos 👍🏼🇺🇸😎
Thanks 👍
Good catch on the military train Brian
I also got it in Walton 🎉
This train is like Lamb Chops song. This is the song that never ends........
What a long train. Great video!
Thank you very much!
My tea is gone and so has another great JT video.😢 But wait there's more! More tea as well. 😂 Stay safe Brian! Have a great day folks! 🚂
You too!
It amazes me the way they can move whole buildings like that, often with no damage. I believe if I was a business owner on the train street I'd constantly wonder when a derailed train would come through my building.😮😮😮
Another nice Jawtooth video. Great way to start the day.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You know when you step out of the store and see a train coming down, you aint getting anywhere on time! Is there some sort of schedule for freight trains coming through here?
Great capture and awesome to see the tanks!
Very true lol. There is no schedule. They run at all hours of the day and night. There are about 8 trains every 24 hours
Saw a young man with a "The Rock" hoodie. The Rock being the new Rock Island railroad in Mississippi. Hoodie was bankruptcy blue... Back in the day, having a business on a street like this would have been convenient. I notice that LaGrange has a quiet zone set up.
Good Morning!!!!!!!!
Morning!
@@JawTooth I was wondering if you could come and visit me sometime and maybe you and I can check out some trains here in Michigan?
Enjoyed the video. I really like La grange
Good choice!
Thanks for showing it. I hope those merchants are adequately insured!
I hope so too
Perfect example of the railroad showing true patriotism!

Very cool! I have never heard that term before. I look for the steamers and get a few every year. I think I got about 9 last year
I'm upset that there are no street running trains in my hometown
I look for them. You should visit this one
Man that was an awesome catch!!! Shoot you had tanks, DPU’s and that oversized car too! Very nice catch 👍🏻
That was a great one JT.
Hey jaw tooth it's fun watching street running trains . They emptied the yard for that one. Very loooooong train. Glad to see animals are doing great. Have a great railroad day 🚂🙋♀️

What a cool video Jawtooth. That was a really long train. All those military tanks and other special rail cars. And a couple DPUs. Pretty cool. 👍❤️

Wow. look at all those Abram Tanks, Really Cool, Jaw Tooth.
Thanks for watching!
Man you work it, you recorded this on my birthday. Nice!!!
Rock on! I wish I would have said happy birthday. Happy Birthday, a little late lol!
a street train AND tanks?! WOW
Would love to hear one of these street trains go to town with the horn blasting like they normally would on crossings. That would be well loud between the buildings.
I have one in Indiana doing that at 7 am😅
Makes me feel good as a American and a veteran.Make way folks and wave to the engineers.
This here train is more than a mile long.... I thought it would never end.
Great blast from the past JT. Certainly miss freights through here. Locals can get boring at times. Unless I'm out by ethanol plant watching their little switcher...
Thanks for watching 😊
thanks for the repost, quite the train to see, nice one
Glad you enjoyed it
I'm 71 and when I was a boy I believe all trains had a caboose but I guess they just don't need them anymore.
That represented number of tanks in one armor company when I was in the military.
Some where there is a very empty rail yard! Yikes thank you Jaw Tooth
Seeing the red brick buildings after the rail vid reminds me that one day, I'll buy a one-story brick house in North Florida. Happy dreams.
Awesome train wow army train watching enjoying too and enjoy the side show too always you have great videos Jaw Tooth 🚂🚂🚂🚂👍😃😎♥️
