I've been hearing about some unusual activity out on the CSX S-Line, so I took a Saturday to go investigate. Nothing too radical, but I did have a great railfanning day so come on along.
Danny, your videos are truly NEXT LEVEL! They look like they come out of a movie studio. They are always very professional, and are absolutely WONDERFUL to watch!
I grew up in the Lake Alfred, Florida.l used to watch ACL train .passenger and freight run in the back of my house.At the time they were Minute Maid houses for employees on lynchburg road and the old dixie highway.(the old lake alfred road.) The houses are gone now. I came back every year to visit my Family and friends in Lake Alfred, Winter Haven,Auburndale,Bartow and a special friend in Lakeland.l work on some train cars and engines that l see in some of yours video.l was suprised to learn that the engines that l thought were scrapped are now refurbish and now pulling the Auto train. I retired from Amtrak in 2003.
Am I the only one who really enjoys seeing what Danny has for lunch? 😂 Those shrimp and oysters really looked good! Extra points for the cheese grits 😁 Now I'm hungry lol
Something about it seems comforting to me, though I can't explain it. It just feels familiar and friendly, almost like it's my grandpa telling me about his day, but also feels like some kind of classic travel guide you'd see on the old school Travel Channel.
Love that radio traffic - that's two people who've definitely worked together quite a while and it sounds like they have a great working relationship. I hope they both have long and happy careers, despite the current rail management being intent on putting people like them through a meatgrinder in the name of another few pennies of profit.
The Engineer we call him Kevin “Snake Man” Brown and he hired out in 97 Richard hired out in 2008. I’ve been an engineer on the south pool most of this year. I Hired out in 2002 and it has gotten a bit better since Joe took over. Thanks for the comment.
I took my 9 year old grandson to the Southeastern Railway museum in Duluth ,Ga. this week.Needless to say,he's hooked. Both of us love your videos.Thank you for the effort.
We went there earlier this year. It's a wonderful place. When I retire in a couple more years, I may well start volunteering there. My wife will surely appreciate getting me out of the house!
I wish my dad was still alive. When Bright Line opens to Orlando, I would take him from Miami to Orlando back to West Palm and take Tri-Rail back to Miami. He loved trains and cigarettes.]
@@hounddog946 I would have liked your father, for I also love those two things! I've spent many hours watching various train videos on YT... while smoking. It's very relaxing.
It’s a nice to hear kids are still interested in railroads. My late grand dad was an engineer on the Hartwell Railway from 1920 until 1960, he worked there for 50 years. I have a photo of him in the cab of his ALCO 2-6-0 (built in 1909)in 1939. My late dad was in the CBI theater, 721st Railway Battalion during WW2. The museum has two GE 44 ton diesels from Hartwell.
You’re videos are amazing you film a often overlooked part of CSX. And you still make it interesting and exciting too watch while giving plenty of information and motives for people to explore CSX’s Florida division
Danny, thanks for another informative and entertaining video. I have always had an interest in trains, now your channel and my retirement have increased my interest in the last few years. Thank you for what you share with us.
Danny and the Golden Pipes are music to my abused ears! He could call a T-ball game and I would think it was the World Series. Thankfully, he loves rail fanning so we get to hear him regularly. RIP to LA Dodger broadcast legend Vin Scully, who departed us one year ago after making 94 rotations around the sun. His baseball broadcasts made listening to the game a glorious event. ❤️
Just got done cooking burgers 🍔🍔🍔 for dinner. Got the notification, threw it up on the big screen 📺 and enjoyed 16 minutes of another perfect DS video. Thank you sir for the perfect end to the weekend. 👍 🚂🚃🚃🚃 Watching from 🇺🇲 Pahrump Nevada 🇺🇲
Another great addition. Always learn something from your videos. Your skills with the camera and the drone and your editing are unmatched. I love your food stops. It's like Wow, that looks yummy and I'm hungry. And I love that you include railroad scanner chatter. You really make railfanning informative and personal. And the scenes of FL and GA are beautiful. Looking forward to another addition. Now back to watching some more of your past entries. 🙂
Thank you D. H., Your videos and narration have always been top notch 8! (Actually 10 out of 10 that is). Your drone skills are always over beautiful landscapes when available too! I’m like a little kid at Christmas time when I see you upload a new video. Thanks again for bringing these awesome videos to all of us rail fans.
I like that upgrade to the Kenwood NX5200. Great radios. I have that one myself. Nothing beats a nice remote head mount, haha. Keep up the great work, Danny! Hopefully I'll get to meet you someday when I travel down to Florida.
Glad to see that people are out there that truly enjoy their careers, One day, I aspire to be the exact same, regardless of what I land on! Excellent video!
Awesome 😎 video and catches of all the CSX action and I loved the 3 way train meet in Wildwood, Florida and all the great things you always bring us! 5 Stars +Danny Harmon and your videos are always top notch and well edited! The best and most awesome 😎 railfanner on TH-cam!!
Danny, long time watcher... I think this is my first comment (or 2nd). Bit hot outside in the afternoon with temperatures topping 110F daily here in Las Vegas, but I don't live far from some freight tracks. You make me want to go out there and capture what I can get with my iPhone. Love your videos not just because trains are awesome, but you're the best railfan videographer out there. Thanks for keeping us educated and entertained. And thanks for making me hungry with all those food shots! :D
Danny in the late 1960’s I worked for a civil engineering firm surveying all the section corners for Mackel Brothers Spring Hill development going just outside Dunnellen. Our crews always ate lunch at Mrs B’s family style restaurant in the middle of town. The train tracks ran right behind the restaurant and while we were eating in the dining room Mts B would feed the train crew out back. The restaurant is long gone now but the tracks are still there. Crews don’t eat as well now I suspect!
Great video and thanks for bearing the heat while lugging your camera around. We always appreciate your videos and especially the educational part of them. Stay safe and hydrated out there, Danny!
This was a good video as you explain each action. Love this Danny. Cool and interesting. 😊 Thanks again and we love your signs on your fence collection. Cool!😊 Great views. ❤
I got to visit Wildwood in April passing through the heart of The Villages. You made these places note worthy with your videos so seeing them in real life is a treat. There was no train traffic and red signals at Moreland Park and Wildwood so I left. (I had family with me and no scanner, was visiting Leesburg for a business trip) It’s wonderful to see something that was written off years ago regain its purpose for the railroad, just like when they almost written off Baldwin Yard. 5 Star video DH!!! ❤❤ -BBT
Watching videos like this reminds me that I really need to get out of Orlando more often and stop being stuck in this quagmire of suburbia; there's so much beautiful Florida out there.
I grew up in Tampa and now live in Tennessee. Thanks so much for keeping me up to date on the old home front!! You sure do make me hungry for real southern food!!! Thanks again!!!
I'm envious of how good your radio channels sound while you're out chasing. I live less than 100 yards from my local railyard and half the time the radio is static-y.
I've been a fan of railroads since growing up across the street from the Erie main line in Wadsworth Ohio. Just recently got into Railfanning and really enjoy watching your videos. very well done, thank you for all your hard work. Looking forward to the next video.
Another great video! High quality on the High Iron. After seeing that gorgeous plate of cheese grits, oysters and shrimp, I did have to pause the action to restore my equilibrium again!
Thank you for another informative video, Danny! I enjoyed watching the trains and the action at the Wildwood, Florida CSX Yard. It was interesting to watch M441-22 switching at Wildwood Yard and the other trains that showed up there. It is always a treat to see what you find to eat!
When Danny Harmon uploads, you know it’s a Good day.
Absolutely
Agreed, I love danny
Yes sir
I agree 100%
Amen to that, mate!
The "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives" portion of Danny's RR sorties just adds to the appeal!
I always look forward to his lunch choice. lol
@@jayreyes6854I do to lol
I noticed the sign outside the restaurant that he dined at, "all you can eat crab legs", who does that?.........Yum!
Danny, your videos are truly NEXT LEVEL! They look like they come out of a movie studio. They are always very professional, and are absolutely WONDERFUL to watch!
Agreed. This is easily the best rail fan channel. I am very grateful.

I look forward to the lunch portion of Danny's videos as much as the trains.
Great work Danny as always!

I'm curious strictly about the cheese grits.
Dade City was the first Amtrak station I've ever used.
@@Studio23Media He makes you feel like everything is good and there are no worries :)

I love the csx train engineer he is a great guy
I love that your sign collection is growing, Danny. I'm glad I could contribute to it years ago!
Nice 👍
The Virginia type peanut is the type grown in Va.and the Carolinas. Typicaly the ones you get at a ball park or Circus 16:38 16:38
Thanks for your hard work and dedication to the Railfan community! Another great video!
Danny Harmon’s postings are the highest production value postings of this genre, so good!

Another great video, Danny. Love love love the drone work. Danny days are the best days!
You produce the best railroading videos Danny. Keep up the great work!
Danny, another gr8 video. I do enjoy each and every 1 of your 🚆 videos 😅
Best railfanning channel on TH-cam. Change my mind
If i see Distant signal in my notifications, i click it as fast as i possibly can.
Right before bedtime... well I'll watch in the morning over coffee..
I’m a member of the “let’s go over the speed limit but only a little” club. I do look forward to these vids Danny, thank you for another great one.
Thank You Danny! Once again an enjoyable well edited video. That engineer was a treat to listen to, never a dull moment working with him.
Danny, thanks for another informative and entertaining video. I have always had an interest in trains, now your channel and my retirement have increased my interest in the last few years. Thank you for what you share with us.
The communications on radio are flawless. Like they do not miss a second.
Danny and the Golden Pipes are music to my abused ears! He could call a T-ball game and I would think it was the World Series. Thankfully, he loves rail fanning so we get to hear him regularly.
RIP to LA Dodger broadcast legend Vin Scully, who departed us one year ago after making 94 rotations around the sun. His baseball broadcasts made listening to the game a glorious event. ❤️
Yes, Vin Scully, Red Barber, Dizzy Dean. They don't make 'em like that anymore. When calling a baseball game was an art form.
@@distantsignal You forgot Harry Carey, the Cubs broadcaster.
I love a good train chase. I love the "going under the speed limit fella" part😂😂
This mans dedication to watch these trains go by is the only reason im subscribed. How can you not appreciate a mans hard work.
Great job, Danny. Thank you for always taking us along.
Just got done cooking burgers 🍔🍔🍔 for dinner. Got the notification, threw it up on the big screen 📺 and enjoyed 16 minutes of another perfect DS video. Thank you sir for the perfect end to the weekend. 👍 🚂🚃🚃🚃 Watching from 🇺🇲 Pahrump Nevada 🇺🇲

I'm always looking for notifications from Distant Signal in my TH-cam account. As always, great video presentation!
Great to see you again mr Harmon!!
Has anyone else noticed how informative and pleasant the videos Danny makes are? Thank you Danny for all your education.
Thanks for the ride! 🇺🇲👍😁
Only train video I watch that makes me hungry! Not always sure which motivates me more, the trains or the food! Great job, as always!
Drink plenty of ice cold water Danny. You're a national treasure brother ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Always turns my day around seeing a Danny video
Love your content ! Seriously the best ‘feel good’ informative content out there
Keep up the great work !
'taste good' content too.
The man, the myth, the legend, Danny
I love that you now have a piece of Michigan history on your fence.
I like that upgrade to the Kenwood NX5200. Great radios. I have that one myself. Nothing beats a nice remote head mount, haha. Keep up the great work, Danny! Hopefully I'll get to meet you someday when I travel down to Florida.
The Atlantic Coast Line logos on the old piggyback trailer was cool, never get tired of seeing remnants of historic US railroads. Great video, thanks.
Yeah, me too. Thanks!
It's been years since I last seen a Winn Dixie. You gotta love the crew on train 898.
Thanks for the video. I always enjoy everything you do. Will be looking for more great videos.
Glad to see that people are out there that truly enjoy their careers, One day, I aspire to be the exact same, regardless of what I land on! Excellent video!
Glad you got your peanuts, Danny. Waldron made an excellent crop of the Virginia variety this year............
Love your videos, Danny. Look forward to new postings. Your knowledge of the territory you cover is entertaining and informative.
It's always great to see a show
just about trains and this is a
really great one here,Thank You.🤠

Phenomenal shots , expert commentary and mouth watering lunch. Great video Danny
That wide open shot of the train was incredible, Danny.
You can tell in some spots that progression has really changed the landscape of what once was a fairly peaceful spot.

I love the drone shots! Keep ‘em coming! I love your videos, all of them! Even the old ones!
Many thanks. Those are kind compliments, Ryan
As always top notch production! I love how you throw in railroading history, which is fascinating!

Thanks very much! You Floridan transplants to Tennessee are getting to be almost as common as Northeasterners moving to Florida. Ha!
Another brilliant video. Great shots and as ever highly informative.
Thank you

Another great video! Terrific footage, tasty looking food, and always enjoy the narration. Thanks for sharing!
Danny- Another great video. I enjoy it every time you have a new one!
Feels like a classic Distant Signal video, really enjoyed this one!
This is a standout episode,
Timing is superb!
I'm envious of how good your radio channels sound while you're out chasing. I live less than 100 yards from my local railyard and half the time the radio is static-y.
Thanks Danny for sharing another great adventure on the high Iron . Cheers till next time ...
Florida looks like a fun place to railfan. Very flat terrain.
Awesome Danny....Beautifully done...
THE BEST OF REAL...
RAILFANING ...😎
THANK YOU FOR TAKING US ALONG
I've been a fan of railroads since growing up across the street from the Erie main line in Wadsworth Ohio. Just recently got into Railfanning and really enjoy watching your videos. very well done, thank you for all your hard work. Looking forward to the next video.
Hey Danny stay cool & safe out there buddy and thanks for another great railfan excursion from your neighbor in Weeki Wachee !
13:22 that’s my pick up truck! Great video super glad to learn more about the train line that runs through my town
Great shot at 10:24! And great narriation as always. (p.s. Yay CSX! brings back childhood memories of the chessie logo)
Another great video! High quality on the High Iron. After seeing that gorgeous plate of cheese grits, oysters and shrimp, I did have to pause the action to restore my equilibrium again!
Thank you again sir your knowledge of the Florida railroad is outstanding
Always makes me smile when I see a notification that you have uploaded a new video, Danny. Thanks for all you do!! 😊
Great Video as always. Danny, your railfanning is at the Executive Level!!!
The lunch look great and the peanuts sound great.Thanks for a great video
Always a good day when a Distant Signal upload notification pops up!
Ronnie silly is such a good guy and a good friend
I went to flight school in Florida, and some of the ATC at smaller airports remind me of that conductor.
Good times.
Love the food stops in between catching the trains
I enjoy your clips as i model CSX here in New Zealand
I always enjoy your videos and commentary.
Great as always Danny. You name a lot of familiar places. Makes me homesick for Florida.
Top of the line video. Always enjoy the action and information you provide us. Until next time, this is NYC fan -- out.
Great video! Glad to learn more about Wildwood, where I live! Really enjoy your informative videos!!
Bill Koster
Your videos are always a treat. Thanks again Danny!
