Outstanding video from start to finish... Love the engines on both sides and the flat car delivery was remarkable too.. Great locations for your shots !!
Nice catch - it always surprises me, after over 30 years working on the railways in the UK, to see nothing is fenced off in the US - it seems you could walk anywhere
Yes, most railroad areas are unfenced with the exception of some urban passenger rail operations, though often that's because of the ground level 3rd rail power.
Certainly interesting to see what I think is the largest Schnabel car to have gone down to FM. This train is always interesting with the power on both ends and always a pleasure to see a train on the Tiffany Bridge. You picked an excellent day to catch that train
Cool video. Not often we get to see these type of cars, or FM, on video. I work at Komatsu (old P&H) in Milwaukee and we have a small fleet of very similar flat cars.
No, it didn’t. They just don’t make locomotives anymore. The diesel engines are still being produced. When Katrina hit New Orleans, three marine versions of their engines got damaged. They were trucked in, because there was no track that could take them out of the city. They all came back up here, and were repaired. They all left by rail, all coupled together.

You can walk anywhere, and people do (not saying it's something you should do)

Not a Schnabel car. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnabel_car

You need to be there when that KRL car leaves F-M to see what kind of engine they are hauling out.
I wasn't in town when they took it out
Something heavy is going on that Schabble depressed flatcar.
Muy buen video Excelente estimado amigo

P3 on a UP engine is crazy
Sounds like another flat at S J-ville headed that way on Aug 13th, 2024.
I heard about it too, but I couldn't catch it
👍👍👍❤❤❤🚂🚂🚂
Is this in Beloit, WS?
Yes
Why does this job requires four locomotives and two of the four are high 🐎 horsepowered GP60s....
The train can reach up to 84 cars long
FAIRBANKS MORSE? THAT COMPANY DIED AGES AGO!
Not here!!
F-M is part of En-Pro now?
No, it didn’t.
They just don’t make locomotives anymore.
