I love the BNSF rail yards. Almost all of them are organized and easy. I work at a CN Intermodal Terminal in Illinois and its the most unorganized rail yard in North America. The Railroad does stuff ass backwards. A driver can be in the terminal anywhere from 5 minutes to almost 3 hours. CN has become very cheap this past year, taking machines out of service because Maintenance has become to much for them apparently. They want more production with less equipment. The yard is a shit show pot holes every where. The pot holes are so bad that the machines frames are cracking that are still under warranty and the machine companies are refusing to fix them do to poor yard conditions.
I thought going to a CN yard was a pain just for us train crews. Everything you just explained is exactly what we experience when we go to their yard. We get blamed for some things that are not due to our fault. However the last train i took to the CN yard the experience was ok. There was a time several years ago our managers had to talk with CN management and tell them exactly what our train crews were responsible for and what theirs were responsible for..
I worked ten years in CNR container yard in Toronto operating a crane like loaded you. The operator must have been a new on the job. You don't sit the container on the goose neck and expect to slide it forward you keep it just off the trailer till you are all most to the end then hit the front and drop it and then on the rear knuckles. That yard you drove in is massive.
I had to pick up 10 containers a day like that. This one is soft loading. So many times he drop container too early and my entire truck shake like crazy lol
A trailer can be any unpowered vehicle (enclosed or not) that is towed by a powered vehicle. He said nothing wrong. A chassis is a “trailer” just like a flatbed, stepdeck, or any other unpowered tow vehicle is a “trailer”.
Rufus Boykin if you are looking to get hired by parsec I think you have to prove to them that you are the laziest piece of shit on earth. Fuck up all equipment and not smart enough to help your self or anyone else. What a dump.
Super cool! I felt like I was there riding along. Music added a real nice accent. Who's the musical artist or artists? Wow, video software has come a long way. Enjoyable entertainment.
Is this the biggest yard is in the world or what? I hear about Union Pacific Bailey as the world's largest railroad classification yard, but I honestly think this one takes the cake.
That place is HUGE! How did you know which chassis to hook-up to? Is it on the ticket when you check in? Or do you know which one to grab before you get there?
@@andrijapetrovic87 thanks, this video got me into deep house music some time ago. I enjoyed not only the music but the pictures as well. I watched it many times, but without music it is not so enjoyable. I do remember the track " How u gonna stop the time "
Can I please use a few seconds of your youtube clip for a video for my band. I can credit and link your channel. I can send you the final video when it's done. Thanks
Gospodine Andrija, htio bih Vas pitati da li ste Vi dio BNSF kompanije ili radite kao njihov saradnik? Usput, odlican i kvalitetan video. Puno pozdrava (Ovo pitam jer sam inace veliki obozavalac vozova :) )
i used to work in that yard. I was a crane operator and yard dog with parsec, when the rail kicked out pac rail. we made a killing on the money back then. and easy money too
Andrija Petrovic wuts the name of the songs on the video. lol they were dope but they don't play no more. and salud bros from BNSF out in la I'm a hard hostler and ground man out here
Great video, super clear/crisp!
That's LPC, my home terminal. A whole lot has changed since this video.

Thank you so much for your answer!!
Those big racks full of trailers sticking up in the air are insane!
Chasis not trailers
A trailer can be any unpowered vehicle (enclosed or not) that is towed by a powered vehicle. He said nothing wrong. A chassis is a “trailer” just like a flatbed, stepdeck, or any other unpowered tow vehicle is a “trailer”.
I worked at that yard heavy machinery mechanic for parsec that yard LPC IN ELWOOD Illinois
I was one of the out of towners that came in when the rail kicked out pac rail. that yard was a HUGE ASS YARD. I WAS A CRANE OPERATOR AND YARD DOG
I have been applying to Parsec hopefully I can get in. I use to work at the small UP Golbal One yard
Rufus Boykin if you are looking to get hired by parsec I think you have to prove to them that you are the laziest piece of shit on earth. Fuck up all equipment and not smart enough to help your self or anyone else. What a dump.
Rufus Boykin no I’m sure it would be a a decent job for you. Just this place is hell on earth.

Elwood Yard?
It's an intermodal ramp, worked rail shuttle for Roadway,6 years.😎🖒😊
Can you do another one like this the next time you go to CN Harvey?
Is this the biggest yard is in the world or what? I hear about Union Pacific Bailey as the world's largest railroad classification yard, but I honestly think this one takes the cake.
Gino Tarabotto this is an intermodal ramp, not a yard
Do one for Commerce and Hobart
That place is HUGE! How did you know which chassis to hook-up to? Is it on the ticket when you check in? Or do you know which one to grab before you get there?
They can grab whatever chassis they want just gotta check then out and make sure everything works and that FHWA is not expired
11:20
Ouch! Hope that load was well braced.
What happened to the music ? At :50 it cuts off.
They copyrighted it
