Chasing Ohio Central’s Vintage GP11 Locomotives along the Youngstown & Austintown Branch! + NS & CSX

Filmed on: 4/20/23
-------------------------------------------------------------
In this new video, join us as we follow around a duo of Maroon and Gold EMD GP11 locomotives on the Ohio Central! We catch them at many places in the greater Youngstown area, including Brier Hill, Austintown, and Ohio Junction. Also seen are some CSX and Norfolk Southern action. These two engines, OHCR 8712 and POHC 8702, are among the 88 listed on the EPA's scrap list, which you can learn more about here: www.justice.go...

[@ScottTaipaleRail]

Wow sounds like a threat around 6:00

[@northernohiorailfanningpro8899]

Yeah… conductor wasn’t too happy we were filming but the engineer was trying to calm him down lol

[@ScottTaipaleRail]

@@northernohiorailfanningpro8899 they got some bad ones. I got the finger by one engineer there. Another crew was pretty cool though, the conductor came over and chatted for a few.

Do you ever do Railfanning on NS (specifically the runs going through Hubbard to PA and back?)

[@northernohiorailfanningpro8899]

No, I have not.

[@tonyromano6220]

EPA needs to pound salt.

Great video as always! Was great to see some of the trains that day with you! 👌🏻

[@kylesmith4160]

It was nice being there and meeting you guys but a great experience hope we could do it again😊

[@pinkostv]

Cool video it’s nice to see industry’s still open in Youngstown

[@northernohiorailfanningpro8899]

Definitely! The ol’ Rust Belt is still kickin!

[@CSX_Doolittle]

Nice video Anthony! Pretty rare that they take the GP11s on the main

[@thepozfromoz5166]

That would a real shame to scrap these vintage locomotives ! I'm sure there's a short line out there that could use them...

[@jessicaburdell7779]

Hopefully send em down here to Jersey for us on the Bel-Del. They could definitely be a good replacement for our number 1856, now out of service.
