Definitely one of your best videos! There is nothing like a train suddenly appearing traveling across seldom-used tracks with overgrown vegitation through a corn field and then disappearing into the woods. Really great ambience. Nice work!
Hey totally agree with your Comments.....I don't know why it feels good to see people doing Something that most people Wouldn't understand...We thick its cool you understand the value of railway..It's neat that the "DUPPS" COMPANY SEES THIS......BELIEVE IT SOME PEOPLE DONT SEE YOUR OPPORTUNITIES.....WE HAVE SOME COMMISSIONIERS IN SKAGIT THAT TOOK A 11 MILLION DOLLARS GARBAGE CONTRACT FROM BNSF .........THEY ARE GOING BY TRUCKSNOW....EACH YEAR THEY ARE SPENDING $66,000 MORE OUT OF THEIR BUDGETS....OH,OH NOW GET THIS THEY ARE RAISING TAXES BY ........YOU GUESS IT $66,000 .....AMAZING HEA......THEY GOT COLLEGE EDUCATION ......I GUESSED. 😅😮😢😢😢😢😢😢❤
It was one of your greatest “ The Little Engine That Could”. I think that was the title of an old children’s book about a little engine. That is what railroading is about in its simplest mode. Keep up the great work and God Bless!
Brian, haven't been to this one but I find it funny that the trains and places you and I look at without ever running into one another, are our everyday trains to us, but thousands of people are interested in them, too, from around the world. Thanks for teaching me to appreciate what is here in Ohio more.
This line was the former Cincinnati Northern, later New York Central (CCC&StL), Penn Central, Conrail, not DT&I as mentioned. Actually the Cincinnati Northern Wikipedia page provides a good history of this line. This Dupps line is also referred to as Germantown Rail Siding. Thanks
Yep, I did a long comment about this on a previous video concerning this line. I also answered his question about the spur line in Troy and how best to catch a train on it. I don’t think he reads the vast majority of comments
I rarely comment on anyone’s videos, but I gotta say, that was one of the coolest little trains I’ve ever seen. Great job filming, and thanks for sharing!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
Glad you enjoyed it! You should also check out the little electric train I filmed in Iowa. The Iowa Traction Railway in Mason City is really cool. I filmed it a few years ago and the locomotives are a hundred years old. Its very rare for freight service like that just like the Dupps
Not former DT&I. DT&I never ran over this line. Former Cincinnati Northern, CCC&STl, NYC, PC, CR. It originally ran to Jackson , Michigan. Severed north of Ansonia , OHIO just after PC. PC/CR ran this as a brachline/bypass line until 1982/83. Only the southern most 5 miles are still down. Some tracks remain in Greeneville.
Real good info. Did you work for the railroad? I grew up in West Manchester and it broke my heart when they tore this line out and one that went through east to west with a diamond right near my house. The two lines were also connected by a wye track. Amtrak used the east and west for a brief time.
NS should have kept it or CSX could have used it as a short cut to Brookville before they took out the old B&O and Pennsylvania Railroad line out from the West side of Dayton all the way to Indy going via Pennsylvania Railroad line or I think Muncie or Marion, Indiana on the B&O.
Love how @ "2:11" that little red critters butterfly 🦋 exhaust position LH rear pops up rather like a farm tractor 🚜 It is sure small but just right for the operation. A year ago, worked Google hard, this client has a pleasant front entrance to its reception from the well tended lawns & gardens on the roadway ❤
Waited for a long time to see a train on the Dupps branch! Well worth the wait. Thanks for the great shots crossing the road and the bridges. It may be a bit of a come down from the days when it was a main line but it sure makes a lovely sight and a very interesting video. Certainly ranks among your best! Thanks J. T.
@@JawTooththanks for the balance of Dupps #2 on the Detroit / Toledo & Ironton line.😊 Great you had Scott ( 1960 Gambit ) with you. Some of this five mile track is quite remote. ❤
I'm quite surprised that they actually managed to shift those two K-class flatcars with a 25-ton critter. Those are big, heavy cars, even empty; it looked like they had to manually disengage the brakes to actually get that giant pile of steel moving. There's something unique about critters and just how amazing a tractive effort, proportionately, those tiny engines have. Ton for ton, they're some of the best pullers out there.
@@JawTooth Oh, I always love seeing critters in action. The big steamers and huge locos like the GEVo get all the glory, but these little locomotives do some of the hardest work, and a lot of industries and workshops still use them to shift small numbers of cars and locomotives around. It's really too bad that Dupps doesn't run much more regular trains; there's a lot of potential there.
The critter was having problems moving the flat cars because CSX spotted them cars on the shortline's siding and "Tied them down" they had the hand brakes on, as soon as these guys figured it out, they were able to pull them out. The Big railroads always "Tie the cars down" to keep them from moving by vandals weather etc.
I knew it had to be that, their like man this thing ain’t hitting then Tom Sawyer the brakeman walks back and checks the hand brakes, boom, they roll lol
Surprised that the crew didn't do an air test. The train might be in yard/restricted limits, but if I were on the crew, I would want to be sure that I had working brakes.
This video is so cool, not only because of the locomotive, but also the fact that there's another functional 25 Tonner about 20 minutes from my house in Southwest Virginia. And for whatever reason, it has a steam whistle!
Jaw tooth, enjoy your show in nh .one the best train show to watch .i love norfe the black cat .i have a black cat to.her name is midnight 15 years old going strong. God bless.
I've been to Germantown Ohio outside of Dayton Ohio. I didn't have enough time to stop by the Dupps private railroad 3 years ago!!! I hope to make a return trip to Germantown Ohio in the near future!!!
Thank you for this splendid video of the Dupps engine dragging the two heavy duty flat cars from the CSX interchange in Carlisle, Ohio to Germantown, Ohio. I enjoyed watching this little engine moving along the former Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad tracks.
That was a great video! Industrial railways are my thing. Thank you for enduring the heat and humidity so that this old coot can watch in comfort while my wife is out spending my money.
Best video ever JT. Looked like a small steam engine disappearing into the cornfield. Would be awesome to see the return with loaded flat cars..thanks.
The Dupps railroad line was very interesting to view and see, they only use it a few times a year for special things I guess but another great video with cameo appearances by the pets and the slide show of the train, Thanks Jaw Tooth.🤠🐶😸👍 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
super vid sir - thank you. Love those bridge shots, interesting their crossbucks have a yield sign on them too. But the very best part was the beginning where the brakes on the two heavy flats hadn't come off yet - the little engine that could! "I think I can, I think I can...."
NIce little train catch. Definitely rarely see stuff JT. Trackage is the old Big Four. Before that it was Cincinnati Northern in Germantown,OH. Station there predates the CN from 1896 when the Cinncinnati, Jackson and Mackinaw built it!
I love that there are still a few of these little 25 ton GE end cab units soldiering on around the world. Great catch! It clearly needs help from a safety orange 23 ton GE boxcab to get that train moving. ❤❤❤
Defiantly a great video, that Dupps engine is nothing short of cute!! Probably last thing you'll hear but till recently I'd never heard of DT&I railroad. Recently I bought a lot of N scale locomotives for my wife's layout(her dad worked for NPBL). Anyway, there is a bright orange DT&I loco in the group that I think is absolutely cool.
wow JT this was an awesome two-part video wow I love it and the animals and the dinosaurs cabooses Thanks and please keep them coming, me and my friends enjoy when you post new videos, and love the old ones also 🙂
I grew up in Germantown I remember the big ones rolling through town. Info The Depot in the park used to set wear the post office is today, it was relocated and set beside the Historic "1870" Bowspring Covered Bridge spanning a Little Twin Creek ( the only of its kind ) with Community Support ,Weidle sand and gravel and guess who the Dupps Company The Depot was relocated to its now spot in Veterans Memorial Park. The Caboose was a donation by the Gentry Brothers of Germantown one still sits beside the drive-through on Jefferson Street the other was moved to Veteran's Memorial Park by Guess Who the Dupps Company. If you further investigate the Caboose on Jefferson Street ( the drive-thru) there is another tracks that run north from Market Street South those two big barns used to be tobacco barns the tracks are under gravel until you get to the drive-thru where the caboose and that wheel stop.... Year and Year ago there was an actual little Ice House that set up beside the tracks....Damn I just feeling Old! 😃😆😭😁🐂
I truly appreciate your hard work in these videos. These are sights of railroads I’d never of know of known about otherwise. You do a amazing job in your videos. Thank you
WELL DONE,JT!! 1st train set I ever had('lil HO set,box was 2.5-3ft long,6-8in wide&'bout2in thick)around 6yrs.old(63now)came w/same switcher eng.(mine was blue).Kept expanding,finally took up entire basement,me&my Dad had UNTOLD HOURS enjoying what we(mostly Dad)created.When they moved2Fl.left it there,still set up('85).
I thought that you were going to live stream this video yesterday. I watched 1960 Gambit's video of this Dupps switcher locomotive last evening. More than likely, CSX will bring some regular locomotives to pull those loaded flat cars of rendering equipment to their main line, because the Dupps switcher locomotive wouldn't have the strength to pull those loaded flat cars to the main line. It barely had to pull those flat cars empty. I hope3 you can catch the load being pulled out of there once the flat cars are loaded. Interesting video of a seldom used railroad siding.
Part 2 will be pretty cool. I tried to get it finished last night for today, Saturday, but it took too long to download. Sunday will be part 2 so make sure you see Part 1 first!
How can you not just love that Dupp's "Little Engine That Could" engine ??? Too damn cute and yes, "JT", it has to be absolutely one of your baddest video productions !!! A+++ all the way. Stay safe out there. 👍👍👍
The only cooler (where have I heard the word “cool” before, lol) video is to catch the Dupps locomotive on that long bridge with the trees and their leaves in their Autumn color glory!! Then, blow up the bridge and watch the engine fall into the water much like the Bridge on the River Kwai!!
Awesome video JT, so cool seeing this little engine pulling hard on these HD flat cars. And yes the bridge shot was pretty cool. Nice job JT and stay cool.
The train station used to sit where the Post office was in town where you filmed. The railroad was originally part of the Cincinnati Northern. The line went up to Greenville through Germantown, Farmersville, West Alexander, Lewisburg, West Manchester, Castine (where it crossed the Old Pennsylvania line from Dayton to Indy).
Great video. I thought the Iowa Traction ones were neat but this little GE 25t out in the fields beats it. Keep filming those short lines JT, lovin it from across the pond in the UK!
Great video. You found some fantastic viewpoints. The red locomotive stands out nicely against the trees and fields. I can't believe how big the wheels are on those flat cars. Looking forward to more videos in future.
Cool video Brian, That engine looks like it would be cool if it was at the Strasburg railroad running with Thomas the train. I never saw an engine like that before. Very cool on the bridge catch.
That line was not DTI. It was Conrail, and before that Penn Central, and before that New York Cental and before that Cincinnati Northern and before that.. well, you get my point. But never DTI.
The Drive Thru Convience Store used to be a Ice House and a site where Coal was sold back in the Coal Furnace days and the Railroad Depot sat beside the Post Office along the tracks it was moved to the park about 30 years ago. I am a Germantown resident.
Yes, really cool video. If a defect detector said 18 axles, I would have thought 6 axle engine and 3 cars so real unique train. I started watching 1 hour after you dropped the video and you already had 1,679 views. You are popular. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Well, that answers 2 questions. Was wondering why the brakey was riding on the rear. Was hoping that they stopped on the bridge for photo ops, lol! I've had crews shovel a scoop of sand into the firebox of their Alcos to smoke it up for us trackside (speaking figuratively) for our photos and videos. It's awesome when the rayroaders are railfans too.
I hate it when they get rid of the old classic locomotives. Some railroads do it because of the pollution standards and the incentives that the government gives to them to replace them@@EMTRailfan
Great video! Did you know the engine would be in use that day, or was it by chance? There is a similar operating locomotive at the former Bethlehem Steel Works they use for demonstrations.
Wow! Great video Jawtooth. Something you dream of, catching a train running on a little used track. Did you find out why they couldn't get those wagons to move at first? Brakes, chocks or just rusted on? Those two bridge scenes were the best! Thanks for sharing with us.
That tiny locomotive was really rolling.Coal pulling those empty flat cars. Imagine how much harder it works when they are loaded with new rendering equipment.
I am surprised that they don’t prep the flange ways at the crossings with compressed air to clean out dirt and sand…when I worked for a steam tourist RR here in CT they would do that at the beginning of every weekend we operated…
Definitely one of your best videos! There is nothing like a train suddenly appearing traveling across seldom-used tracks with overgrown vegitation through a corn field and then disappearing into the woods. Really great ambience. Nice work!
Thank you very much!
@@JawTooththis is the second time this month you have caught the dupps running right?
Its like having a model railroad but life sized lol@@FabianDiazTrainsTrucksNCars

Glad you enjoyed!
That's an awesome shot of them going across the bridge! 😊😊❤
Absolutely, the rarest train video of the year. Wish there was a Golden Globe award for train enthusiast videos.
Love how @ "2:11" that little red critters butterfly 🦋 exhaust position LH rear pops up rather like a farm tractor 🚜
It is sure small but just right for the operation.
A year ago, worked Google hard, this client has a pleasant front entrance to its reception from the well tended lawns & gardens on the roadway ❤
That's an extremely loud horn on the switch engine. I guess you could say it's heavy duty also. 😊😊😊
This has got to be one of your best railfan videos. certainly the most beautiful and interesting. Thank you.
Wow, thanks!
OMG! What a shot when the train stopped on the trestle over the creek! Beautiful!

I wonder if the engineer and brakeman are just contracted or do they work full-time at the plant?
When I worked for CONRAIL, they ran some big coal trains on this line.
It looks like they were having trouble getting the flat cars' brakes to release at first. Cool video, weird little engine!
I enjoy your mainline videos, but I definitely want to see more of this industrial railroading video too!👍👌🚂

Duffy the little red engine that could move a mountain in German town. Stay safe and cool my friend and looking forward for more train videos dad .

That line was not DTI. It was Conrail, and before that Penn Central, and before that New York Cental and before that Cincinnati Northern and before that.. well, you get my point. But never DTI.

Well, that answers 2 questions. Was wondering why the brakey was riding on the rear. Was hoping that they stopped on the bridge for photo ops, lol! I've had crews shovel a scoop of sand into the firebox of their Alcos to smoke it up for us trackside (speaking figuratively) for our photos and videos. It's awesome when the rayroaders are railfans too.
Pretty cool! They smoke it up for us at Cass
@@JawTooth I was speaking figuratively about Alco diesels 😁 But unfortunately, this RR is phasing out its vintage collection for wide cabs ☹
I hate it when they get rid of the old classic locomotives. Some railroads do it because of the pollution standards and the incentives that the government gives to them to replace them@@EMTRailfan
Great video! Did you know the engine would be in use that day, or was it by chance?
There is a similar operating locomotive at the former Bethlehem Steel Works they use for demonstrations.
JT, you get the most amazing stuff. Well done. Cheers Rob
Thanks Rob
Wow! Great video Jawtooth. Something you dream of, catching a train running on a little used track. Did you find out why they couldn't get those wagons to move at first? Brakes, chocks or just rusted on? Those two bridge scenes were the best! Thanks for sharing with us.
That tiny locomotive was really rolling.Coal pulling those empty flat cars.
Imagine how much harder it works when they are loaded with new rendering equipment.
Once the breaks were off it moved those cars easily ❤😊❤. No lights used, no flag on the end of the Flatbeds!
True!! At the end of todays video you can see it pulling loaded flat cars with ease
If that fellow'd had Shoestring's 5 gallon bucket to sit on, he'd have had the perfect day at work.
Superb videos 📹 👌
Big fan from India 🇮🇳
I will keep this video with my favorites!.. thank you
Awesome train, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Best video yet. That says a lot, because you have a ton of good videos. 👍
Thanks for watching!
I am surprised that they don’t prep the flange ways at the crossings with compressed air to clean out dirt and sand…when I worked for a steam tourist RR here in CT they would do that at the beginning of every weekend we operated…
Yes. Some sections of track, particularly the crossings, looked very iffy to me.
Wonderful! Very nice. Thanks for the upload.
Thank you too!
